  • Housing Land Availability Study 2008
    Housing Land Availability Study Adjusted to March 2008 Development and Regeneration Department Planning Division– Spatial Planning Team 1 Current Housing Land Commitment Adjusted to March 2008 Background 1) This note updates the housing land position relating to the situation at the 31st March 2008 and considers the distribution of development land, provides information on new planning permission ns, and assesses the balance between private and housing association provision. It also provides detailed information relating to dwellings completed in the past year. Housing Land Requirements & Supply 2) Planning Policy Statement 3: Housing (PPS 3) was published in November 2006 with an objective to ensure that the planning system delivers a flexible, responsive supply of land, reflecting the principles of “Plan, Monitor, Manage”. From April 2007 Local Planning Authorities are required to identify sufficient specific and deliverable sites to ensure a rolling 5-year supply of housing and demonstrate the extent to which existing plans already fulfil the housing requirement. To be deliverable sites must be: available, suitable and achievable in the next 5 years and there is also a requirement to demonstrate a 15 year supply. 3) To address this the Local Planning Authority is required to undertake an annual Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA). The first SHLAA for Bolton was commenced in December 2007 by consultants Roger Tym & Partners and the results from this will be published in the summer 2008 including a 5 and 15 year housing supply figures. 4) The SHLAA replaces the former annual Housing Land Availability Study that updated the housing land position in the Borough and reported on the distribution of development land, provided information on new planning permissions and dwelling completions.

  • The Emergence and Evolution of City Deals in Scotland
    The emergence and evolution of City Deals in Scotland David Waite, Duncan Maclennan, Graeme Roy, Des McNulty Abstract There is a resurgent policy emphasis on the role of city-regions as drivers of economic growth. Officials and leaders in such metropolitan areas, however, are confronted with challenges relating to administrative fragmentation, achieving alignment with national policy objectives, and demonstrating the capabilities to plan, finance and deliver effective policy interventions and investments. As a response to these challenges, policymakers are fashioning new governance arrangements, attached to experimental policy mechanisms, to develop urban policy. Of note, City Deals have recently emerged in the UK, and this paper charts their evolution across the UK, with a focus on the devolved administrations in particular. The paper ends with some reflections and questions about their roll out in Scotland. Acknowledgements The authors are members of or provide research support for the Glasgow Economic Commission, which is linked to, but independent of, the Glasgow City-region City Deal. This paper reflects the views of the authors only, writing in their academic capacities, and not the views of the Commission or any other body. I The UK context Changing institutional arrangements have been a persistent feature of the urban policy landscape in the UK, as the challenge of addressing uneven economic performance across and within UK city-regions remains (Centre for Cities, 2015; Tyler et al., 2017; McCann, 2016). It is clear that there has been both churn over time in the tools, strategies and approaches set out to address this issue (Jones, 2010; Pike et al., 2015) as well as marked contrasts between England and the now devolved administrations of the UK (Maclennan et al., 2017).

  • 1 Local Government Studies 40 (4) 2014 Elected Mayors
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Northumbria Research Link Local Government Studies 40 (4) 2014 Elected Mayors: Leading Locally? John Fenwick and Howard Elcock Introduction The directly elected executive mayor has now been a feature of English local government for more than a decade. Drawing inspiration from European and American experience the elected mayor has appealed to both Labour and Conservative Parties in offering an apparent solution to perceived problems of local leadership. For some on the Left, it offered a reinvigoration of local democracy, a champion for the locality who could stand up for the community: in one early pamphlet, a Labour councillor envisaged that an elected mayor could ‘...usher in a genuinely inclusive way of doing civic business as well as giving birth to an institution that encourages and values people’ (Todd 2000, p 25). This perspective was concerned with enhancing democracy rather than improving management. For the centre-Right, and for New Labour, it offered the opportunity to cut through the lengthy processes of local democratic institutions by providing streamlined high-profile leadership. Although there were different and perhaps inconsistent political expectations of what the new office of mayor would bring, Left and Right shared a view that the leadership of local areas, rooted in nineteenth-century committee systems, was failing.
