  • South Oxfordshire District Council Note on Growth of the Towns and Larger Villages
    South Oxfordshire District Council Note on Growth of the Towns and Larger Villages Following Matter 5 on the Spatial Strategy and in advance of Week 4 Matters on the Towns, the tables and graphs attached expand on the planned growth of the Sustainable Settlements. They are as follows: Table 1: explains the origins of the figures the Plans sets for neighbourhood plans to allocate in Tables 5d and 5f. It starts with the number of dwellings at the time of the 2011 Census, adds 15% to the dwellings stock and adds the allocations carried forward from earlier plans, before showing how much this represents in terms of growth each settlement in percentage terms by 2035 Table 2: explains the actual (in many cases much higher) percentage growth of the Towns and Larger Villages because of commitments and completions. Also adds in the allocations in the Plan at Didcot, Nettlebed, Berinsfield, Chalgrove and Wheatley. Graphs: show the size of the four Towns at the 2011 Census, the number completed since 2011, the number of commitments (planning permissions) and the outstanding number to allocate in neighbourhood plans for Thame and Henley-on-Thames. In all cases the Didcot figures show only the South Oxfordshire side, not Vale of White Horse district. Together these show: 1. The Plan does not overlook the sustainable settlements (market towns and larger villages). There is high percentage growth here, but it is less visible in the Plan because it is being delivered through neighbourhood plans and not Plan allocations (except for Didcot, Nettlebed, Berinsfield, Chalgrove and Wheatley).

  • South Oxfordshire District Council – New Warding Arrangements
    Council report Report of Chief Executive Author: David Buckle Telephone: E-mail: To: Council DATE: 30 August 2012 South Oxfordshire District Council – New Warding Arrangements Recommendation That Council agrees the submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England attached as Appendix A to this report Purpose of Report 1. This report invites Council to agree a submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission (LGBCE) for England on warding arrangements as it reduces in size from 48 to 36 members. Background 2. In March of this year the LGBCE commenced an electoral review at our request. In June it announced that it was minded to recommend (ultimately, parliament takes the decision) a council size of 36. This was the number that Council agreed to propose at it meeting in February. 3. The next stage of the review is to develop warding proposals. At this time the LGBCE has published nothing so we have a blank canvass on which to make proposals. However, the number of councillors we put forward must add up to 36 (or conceivably 35 or 37 if there are particular reasons justifying such a variation) and best comply with the three criteria that govern electoral reviews, all of which carry equal weight. These are: • to deliver electoral equality for voters • to provide boundaries that reflect natural communities • to provide effective and convenient local government 4. In November the LGBCE will publish its draft warding proposals and council will have an opportunity to decide its formal response to these at a meeting next X:\Committee Documents\2012-2013 Cycle (2) Aug-Oct\Council_300812\Council_300812_Warding arrangements 1 report.doc January.
