Community & Open Spaces Moors Valley Golf The golf course reopened a few days after the Cabinet decision to bring back the operation in-house.

Ferndown and Uddens BID met on 6 November. Russell Bowyer has resigned from the Chair, with Danny Godfrey elected as the new Chairman. It was reported that there had been an encouraging response to the Travel Plan Survey carried out by company Velocity on behalf of the BID. When completed, the information will be used to inform the route for the proposed bus service. The bus company (Nordcat) has advised that the service would initially be provided by a 16 seat mini bus, with a larger vehicle being brought in if there is sufficient demand. Police Inspector Cheyne Marley reported that there had been a relatively low level of Estate crime during the past three months. Other business included updates from the Security Warden and on the website, social media and the skills courses on offer. The full minutes are available and I can send them to Members on request. The Bournemouth International Steering Group meeting took place on 15 November. A report on the programme delivery at Aviation Park was received. Rigby Group are working on a masterplan. Gamma Aviation had consolidated the Dorset part of their operation to the site, which would result in the creation of 250 new jobs. On transport, the Blackwater East Junction is now complete, with a saving of £200k, which will go into other elements of the work. Progress on the A338 widening is ahead of schedule, with Phase 1 completed and work on Phase 2 started. Traffic delays of 20-30 minutes are being encountered, less between the hours of 10 am and 3 pm. The schemes at Parley are waiting for the planning decision. The draft minutes are available to Members 1 Enter the portfolio area 2 Insert the date of the Cabinet meeting to which this summary update is to be reported 3 Provide brief details of the meetings attended, key activities or project milestones completed since the last report 7 on request.

ACTIVITIES/MILESTONES FOR NEXT PERIOD:5 4 Enter details of any delegated decisions made since the last meeting 5 Provide details of key activities, project milestones or significant meetings anticipated in the next period 8 EAST DORSET DISTRICT COUNCIL PORTFOLIO HOLDER UPDATE SUMMARY PORTFOLIO:1 Environment Barbara Manuel CABINET DATE:2 28th November 2018 KEY ACTIVITIES SINCE Dorset Waste Partnership Joint Committee THE LAST REPORT:3 The Joint Committee meeting was held on the 5th November at County Hall. The Finance and Performance report to date was presented which forecast a projected adverse variance of £180K against the budget of £33.5M based on the first half of the financial year. This shows an improvement on the previous forecast of a variance of £723K. The main factors remain, the volatile recyclate price and vehicle fuel costs which are subject to fluctuation. (see attached Appendix 1). The predicted overspend will be covered by the Business Equalisation Fund if required, which is supported by all partners. This fund was utilised in the current year to maintain a standstill budget of £33.1M thereby covering the rise in the minimum wage. The Capital budget of £5.114M is currently standing at £2.5M Additional funds were allocated to this budget to allow for the purchase of land for the proposed Waste Management Centre in Blandford. The Draft Revenue Estimates for 2019/20 was presented to the Joint Committee for comment and noting only, as the responsibility for the 2019/20 budget sits with the Dorset Shadow Executive. The figures presented assume that Dorset Council will continue to deliver services in Christchurch in 2019/20 on the same basis as the current service, in return for a financial contribution from Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch Council. 1 Enter the portfolio area 2 Insert the date of the Cabinet meeting to which this summary update is to be reported 3 Provide brief details of the meetings attended, key activities or project milestones completed since the last report 9 The proposed draft budget for 2019/20 which allowing for cost pressures and savings together with the income from BP&C, gives an assumption that the sum of £28638,488 will be required from Dorset Council. The planned Capital expenditure for 2019/20 is estimated at £8,525,100 The Business Plan for 2019/20 largely reflects the budget process on the assumption that there is no change to the existing service and strategic polices. Walford Mill Education Trust I attended the Walford Mill Education Trust AGM on the 8th November 2018. The Accounts, Statement of Financial Activities and Balance Sheet were received and adopted. Over the last year the Mill has faced financial difficulties due to the loss of their Arts Council grant. However, subject to conditions and scrutiny EDDC have granted two tranches of £15000 to support the trust. The Trust also received confirmation that their DCC grant is to be paid. The Trustees are currently looking for £15,000 pa third party grant funding to ensure their financial security. The Trustees are now looking to introduce new makers to the Mill which in turn will support the education programme. A new exhibition is currently running celebrating Christmas at the Mill, which is open until the 7th January 2019.

However most pre-twentieth century British data on heights suffer from selection biases. Here we present unique evidence on adult male heights by occupation from an unbiased sample of adult males in Dorset in the years 1798–99.
