ENFORCEMENT ACTION, LAND AT NARBOROUGH ROAD SOUTH, BRAUNSTONE TOWN Considered – Report of the Regulatory Services Group Manager. Other Options Considered – Do nothing The Council could continue to tackle the issues posed by long term empty homes which have become magnets for vandalism, squatters and other forms of anti-social behaviour using existing enforcement powers alone. This is disregarded for long term empty properties as the use of these powers is only a short term fix and does not address the underlying issue. Further, failure to act now the Council has an Empty Homes and Private Sector Housing Strategy and Policies could affect the Council’s reputation as the enforcing Local Housing Authority. Further, it is our statutory duty as a Council to monitor and maintain the housing stock within the district (The Housing Act 2004) and addressing non-decent and empty stock in Blaby District will improve the quality and affordability of homes for our residents. DECISION That the Regulatory Services Group Manager and Legal Services Manager be delegated to take action in relation to land off Narborough Road South, Braunstone Town, using the Compulsory Purchase Powers under

Introduction 1.1 Background The A46 corridor runs for 250 kilometres between the South West of England and Humberside, through the Midlands. The corridor comprises the M69 and short sections of the M1 and A45. At either end, the corridor divides into a number of corridors, notably the A15 and A1173 in the north, and the A44 and A435 in the south (the A46 begins again in Cheltenham and continues via Stroud to Bath). The majority of the A46 corridor is within the area of interest for this study, as shown in Figure 1-1. The A46 corridor performs many functions: a bypass to the major settlements along its length (such as Coventry, Leicester, Newark and Lincoln); a connection between radial road corridors (such as the M1 and A1); and providing access to the Port of Bristol, the Humber Ports, and South Wales. The road’s form is as varied as its function: from single carriageway ‘A’ road with local accesses to three-lane dual carriageways and motorways. As a consequence of the design of the roads in the corridor and the widely-varying demand for its use, the performance of the corridor also varies considerably.

  • English Nature Research Report
    r Natural Area: 14. Southern Magnesian Geological Significance: Considerable Limestone (provisional) General geological character: This Natural Area is characterised by the easterly dipping Magnesian Limcstone escarpment ofthe Yorkshire Province. The Permian Magnesian Limestone was deposited on the western edge of the shallow, tropical, Zechstein Sea some 255 million years ago and forms a continuous belt from the south of Shefield to the Durham Coast. Yellow desert sands (reworked by the rising Zechstein Sea) mark the base of the Permian succession. 'Three distinct cycles are recognised within the overlying Magnesian Limestone; thesc cycles consist of interbedded evaporites, mark, siltstones and (dolomitic) limestones and relate to large scale palaeoenvironrnnetal changes often culminating in the evaporation of marine waters in arid climates and the resultant formation of evaporite (salt) deposits. Zechstein-aged sediments in the Southern Magnesian Limestone Natural Area are dominated by the first cycle, characterised by the Cadeby Formation. This is a dolomitised shelf carbonate, similar to modem tropical carbonates such as the Bahamas, and contains a number of fossiliferous patch reefs in the Weatherby Member. Superficial Pleistocene deposits arc not abundanr occurring mainly in isolated patches on high ground. The area was affected by glacial advance on at least twc occasions. An early glaciation (approximately 128,000 years RP) covered the area in ice while during the Devensian (approximately 12,000 years BP) the area was affected by periglacial (tundra-like) erosion. Gorge and cave deposits (eg. at Creswell Crags) contain extensive vertebrate remains, including evidence of humar: occunation. makinr this a kev localitv for intemreting the Pleistocene evolution of the British Isles.
