  • Luton Motor Town
    Contents Luton: Motor Town Luton: Motor Town 1910 - 2000 The resources in this pack focus on the major changes in the town during the 20th century. For the majority of the period Luton was a prosperous, optimistic town that encouraged forward-looking local planning and policy. The Straw Hat Boom Town, seeing problems ahead in its dependence on a single industry, worked hard to attract and develop new industries. In doing so it fuelled a growth that changed the town forever. However Luton became almost as dependant on the motor industry as it had been on the hat industry. The aim of this pack is to provide a core of resources that will help pupils studying local history at KS2 and 3 form a picture of Luton at this time. The primary evidence included in this pack may photocopied for educational use. If you wish to reproduce any part of this park for any other purpose then you should first contact Luton Museum Service for permission. Please remember these sheets are for educational use only. Normal copyright protection applies. Contents 1: Teachers’ Notes Suggestions for using these resources Bibliography 2: The Town and its buildings 20th Century Descriptions A collection of references to the town from a variety of sources. They illustrate how the town has been viewed by others during this period. Luton Council on Luton The following are quotes from the Year Book and Official Guides produced by Luton Council over the years. They offer an idea of how the Luton Council saw the town it was running.

  • Housing Requirements, and to Meet the Identified Housing Needs of Its Residents
    6 SOCIAL MATTERS T DRAF Luton Local Plan 2001 - 2011 47 SOCIAL OBJECTIVES 6.1 Luton is expected to contribute to county-wide and regional housing requirements, and to meet the identified housing needs of its residents. However, Luton has difficulty in realising this expectation as scope for further residential development is severely restricted because the town is already built up to its boundaries. The main opportunities for new residential development arise as a result of the reuse of vacant or underused employment or commercial land, and the intensification of existing residential areas, mostly through conversions to flats, and development of ‘backland’ sites. 6.2 The provision of adequate community facilities, together with green space and leisure uses, is important to the quality of life for the residents of Luton and is a major land use issue. Luton is generally deficient in green space, with particular shortages in some inner areas, such as Bury Park. Development pressures in such a tightly constrained built up area have to be balanced against the need to protect green spaces and other community facilities. T 6.3 Thus the social objectives of the Plan are: Housing G Meeting local housing needs, including the need for affordable housing Leisure and DRAFCommunity Facilities G Making adequate and appropriate provision for sport, leisure, community development and green space to meet local community needs 6.4 The following chapters on housing and leisure and community facilities seek to deliver these objectives, through policies intended to satisfy both Government guidance and local concerns. 48 Luton Local Plan 2001 - 2011 HOUSING Introduction 6.8 There is a limited scope in Luton for new housing due to a lack of available developable land.

  • Consultation Draft of Luton Rights of Way Improvement Plan
    AGENDA ITEM AREA COMMITTEE: SOUTH LUTON DATE: 2ND OCTOBER 2007 SUBJECT: CONSULTATION DRAFT OF LUTON RIGHTS OF WAY IMPROVEMENT PLAN REPORT BY: HEAD OF ENGINEERING & TRANSPORTATION CONTACT OFFICER: KEITH DOVE 01582 547211 IMPLICATIONS: LEGAL 3 COMMUNITY SAFETY EQUALITIES ENVIRONMENT FINANCIAL 3 CONSULTATIONS STAFFING OTHER WARDS AFFECTED: ALL PURPOSE 1. The Government requires the Council to publish a Rights of Way Improvement Plan (RoWIP) that sets out the current condition and use of Public Rights of Way in and around Luton, and suggests ways in which it could be improved. Government Guidance on the content of a RoWIP indicates that it should cover: • the extent to which rights of way meet the present and likely future needs of the public; • the opportunities rights of way provide for exercise and other forms of open air recreation and for enjoying Luton and its surrounding area; and • how accessible rights of way are to blind or partially sighted people and others with mobility problems. 2. It is necessary as part of this process to conduct a 12-week consultation on the draft RoWIP to assess the priorities of local residents and other interested stakeholders. The results of this consultation will be reviewed and used to inform the development of the final Plan to be published in late 2007. The purpose of this report is therefore to seek the views of this Area Committee on the consultation draft of the Luton RoWIP, a summary of which is appended to this report. RECOMMENDATION(S) 3. That the North Luton Area Committee note the report, and identifies the priorities that should be afforded to each of the actions and any other actions not currently included in the plan REPORT 4.
