    Allerdale Borough Council Allerdale Local Plan (Part 1) Strategic and Development Management Policies July 2014 www.allerdale.gov.uk/localplan Foreword To meet the needs of Allerdale’s communities we need a plan that provides for new jobs to diversify and grow our economy and new homes for our existing and future population whilst balancing the need to protect the natural and built environment. This document, which covers the area outside the National Park, forms the first part of the Allerdale Local Plan and contains the Core Strategy and Development Management policies. It sets a clear vision, for the next 15 years, for how new development can address the challenges we face. The Core Strategy will guide other documents in the Allerdale Local Plan, in particular the site allocations which will form the second part of the plan. This document is the culmination of a great deal of public consultation over recent years, and extensive evidence gathering by the Council. The policies in the Plan will shape Allerdale in the future, helping to deliver sustainable economic development, jobs and much needed affordable housing for our communities.

  • Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough
    1 Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough Understanding canopy cover to better plan and manage our urban trees 2 Foreword Introducing a world-first for Wales is a great pleasure, particularly as it relates to greater knowledge about the hugely valuable woodland and tree resource in our towns and cities. We are the first country in the world to have undertaken a country-wide urban canopy cover survey. The resulting evidence base set out in this supplementary county specific study for Bridgend County Borough will help all of us - from community tree interest groups to urban planners and decision-makers in local Emyr Roberts Diane McCrea authorities and our national government - to understand what we need to do to safeguard this powerful and versatile natural asset. Trees are an essential component of our urban ecosystems, delivering a range of services to help sustain life, promote well-being, and support economic benefits. They make our towns and cities more attractive to live in - encouraging inward investment, improving the energy efficiency of buildings – as well as removing air borne pollutants and connecting people with nature. They can also mitigate the extremes of climate change, helping to reduce storm water run-off and the urban heat island. Natural Resources Wales is committed to working with colleagues in the Welsh Government and in public, third and private sector organisations throughout Wales, to build on this work and promote a strategic approach to managing our existing urban trees, and to planting more where they will

  • Inform Key Judgements Made by Ofsted
    Agenda Item * For publication Bedford Borough Council – off Agenda approval October 2013 Report by the Portfolio Holder for Education and the Executive Director for Children’s Services, Schools and Families Subject: ACCEPTANCE OF GRANT TO IMPLEMENT THE CHILDREN AND FAMILIES BILL 1. Executive Summary This report relates to implementation of the Children and Families Bill (2013) which is expected to become the Children and Families Act in September 2014. The Bill changes the statutory framework in relation to Children with Special Educational Needs (SEN). The Council will have a duty to develop and implement the new legislation for more than 700 young people with Statements of SEN in a significantly changed way. The new approach is called the Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP) often referred to as the ‘single plan.’ The Local Authority will have a duty to publish a local offer, embed joint commissioning, offer personalised budgets, develop a key worker role and develop a new statementing process. In addition, the new legislation brings together two statutory frameworks for pre and post 16 and the Borough will therefore have to extend its responsibilities to assessing and monitoring Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCP) for young people in education and training up to 25 years (Appendix A) The implementation of the single plan will inform key judgements made by Ofsted. It is critical that the council utilises this funding stream to deliver the change required. 2. Recommendations 2.1 The Mayor is requested to consider the report and, if satisfied, approve acceptance of the Grant which will provide capacity to prepare and deliver our new legal obligations.

  • The Worcestershire Biodiversity Action Plan
    The Worcestershire Biodiversity Action Plan Abstract Following its commitment to the 1992 Convention on Biological Diversity the UK began to develop a policy and strategy framework, beginning with Biodiversity Action Plans and recently with a focus on ecological networks and green infrastructure. This project contributed to Worcestershire’s Biodiversity Action Plan review process by demonstrating how green infrastructure (GI) can be identified and delivered in the Urban Habitat Action Plan. GI provides multifunctional benefits, so will help encourage biodiversity through a wide network of green spaces and corridors in urban and natural environments. It is crucial that biodiversity is conserved and sustainably managed for future generations because it provides direct and indirect services for people, such as food and climate regulation. i Worcestershire Biodiversity Action Plan 2018 H14 Urban HAP Table of Contents Abstract ................................................................................................................................................... i Table of Contents .................................................................................................................................... ii Table of Figures ...................................................................................................................................... iii Abbreviations ......................................................................................................................................... iv 1 Introduction
