I have always felt that to have a Cornwall Council seat that included Fowey w th Tywardreath was illog cal - they are totally separate commun ties. I think 2 new seats could be made as follows: Take the Fowey parish wards out. Make 1 seat from the 3 wards of Tywardreath and Par Parish Council + St Blazey North ward (estimated at 5439 electors in 2023). Make a 2nd seat from St Blazey South ward + both wards of Carlyon parish + Charlestown ward of St Austell Bay parish (estimated at 4650 electors in 2023). Carlyon Bay is hardly separate from St Blazey, it makes no sense having a dividing line down Par Moor Road. Charlestown has links with St Blazey Gate - they now have the same vicar and the buses from St Blazey go through there. Some adjustment would probably have to be made as to where the line is drawn between the St Blazey parish wards - either ABN2 or 3 might have to be moved into St Blazey South to even up the numbers for each Cornwall Council seat.

Where Boundary changes enable it, seats should try to have both rural and urban areas to avoid the urbanisation of some seats and thus a greater diversity of the social population. I believe that the number of parish councils that a County Cllr should have to attend should be looked at in terms of numbers of meetings that a County Cllr will attend. I believe that St Austell Bethel should be divided between St Austell Poltair and St Austell Bay as the electorate is similar and since Bethel is under St Austell Town, the St Austell Bay Cllr will have no extra meetings I think that Mount Charles should be divided between St Austell Gover and St Austell Bay for the same reason as above. I think Penw thick and Boscoppa should be divided between Bugle and Par & St Blaise with the part of Bugle belonging to a different MP repatriated to Lanier and Blisland. Bugle will need to be topped up from Lostwithiel which could be divided up to help Fowey too. St Enoder and St Dennis could be combined with some taken off into Roche as the areas are similar. St Stephen in Brannel could take areas from St Mewan and Roseland, whilst the remainder could join with Mevagissey. The remains of Lanivet and Blisland should be combined with the Bodmin seats to ensure that all seats had both urban and rural aspects, not the current doughnut effect. Colomb Major and St Mawgen & Colan should be combined and the southern edges used to enable the reorganisat on of Newquay Constituences. The reorganisation of Newquay should also utilise the Ward Newlyn and Goonhavern. This preserves the area's integrity.

St blazey gate should be combined with st blazey leaving Tywardreath and Par as one division.

From: M Tipton Sent: 31 Januar uncil Dear Councillor Brown, G-GPC - CNA2-2A - Connor Downs I am a Trustee and a Vice-Chairman of Connor Downs Residents' Association (CDRA) but this message is written on my own behalf. The proposals CNA2-2A and CNA2-2B, for ward divisions, were brought to my attention last week and I understand the Panel will review them on Friday. Please could I ask the Panel to consider the following in respect of the proposed boundary, shown in CNA2-2B, of the main road through Connor Downs: The community in Connor Downs is cohesive. Through the CDRA the residents have worked with G-GPC for four years on the Neighbourhood Plan and for six years on infrastructure projects; the latter culminated last year in the delivery of long-desired traffic calming and road safety works on Turnpike Road / Horsepool Road, the road through the village, which is now suggested as a boundary in CNA2-2B. This road safety project involved lengthy negotiations and consultations with CC and Cormac. Allotting responsibility for separate sides of the road to different authorities will create administrative difficulties which would lead to delays and add to the costs of future projects. Turnpike Road / Horsepool Road runs through the centre of the Settlement Boundary defined in the Neighbourhood Plan, which was approved last year. Although it is part of a 'Showcase Corridor' in the One Public Transport System scheme, and was once the main highway into the far west, the road now serves as a relief road when the A30 is closed. It is not a major road but is mainly residential; following the anticipated Cornwall Governance Review residents may find themselves having to pay different precepts to different authorities, depending on which side of the road they live. This would create unnecessary inconsistency. The village is rural in character and identity; I note the guidance to the Review that it is important to try not split parishes or to mix rural and urban areas. Community facilities, such as social and meeting areas, are situated on both sides of Turnpike Road / Horsepool Road. On a map the road may look like a convenient boundary but in reality it is very much the centre of the village. Thank you.

Moreover the Cornish people have been recognised as a separate national group from the English by the Council of Europe's Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities. As such the opinions of the Boundary Commission for England on the number of elected members that Cornwall Council should have are irrelevant. Uploaded Documents: None Uploaded Cornwall Personal Details: Name: Christopher Trevitt E-mail: Postcode: Organisation Name: Comment text: I understand that there is a proposal to combine the Rame Peninsular with Torpoint West. I feel this is not appropriate given the unique nature of the Peninsular and therefore the unique requirements that places upon its Councillor. The peninsular, being an area of outstanding natural beauty has particular challenges facing it in order to conserve this unique environment. As such these challenges are completely different and often in conflict with those from an urban area like Torpoint West and would thus place a councillor trying to represent both in a compromised and even conflicted position. I strongly feel that the Rame Peninsular has a case to be treated differently from other areas of the county and not be bound by the restrictions that the number of electors would force upon it leading to it being 'lumped' together with an urban area purely to balance out the numbers. The peninsular contains many unique communities which have particular needs and requirements that can only be adequately served by a councillor fully engaged with those communities and aware of those needs rather than being shared with a totally separate area. If the peninsular needs to combine with other areas these should be rural in nature and have commonality which will result in far more effective representation.
