The Boundary Committee for England is a committee of the Electoral Commission, an independent body set up by Parliament under the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000. The functions of the Local Government Commission for England were transferred to the Electoral Commission and its Boundary Committee on 1 April 2002 by the Local Government Commission for England (Transfer of Functions) Order 2001 (SI 2001 No 3692). The Order also transferred to the Electoral Commission the functions of the Secretary of State in relation to taking decisions on recommendations for changes to local authority electoral arrangements and implementing them. Members of the Committee are: Pamela Gordon (Chair) Professor Michael Clarke CBE Kru Desai Robin Gray Joan Jones Ann M Kelly Professor Colin Mellors Archie Gall (Director) We are required by law to review the electoral arrangements of every principal local authority in England. Our aim is to ensure that the number of electors represented by each councillor in an area is as nearly as possible the same, taking into account local circumstances. We can recommend changes to ward boundaries, the number of councillors and ward names. We can also recommend changes to the electoral arrangements of parish and town councils. This report sets out our final recommendations on the electoral arrangements for the district of East Cambridgeshire. BOUNDARY COMMITTEE FOR ENGLAND 5 6 BOUNDARY COMMITTEE FOR ENGLAND SUMMARY The Local Government Commission for England (LGCE) began a review of East Cambridgeshire’s electoral arrangements on 17 April 2001. It published its draft recommendations for electoral arrangements on 27 November 2001, after which it undertook an eight-week period of consultation. As a consequence of the transfer of functions referred to earlier, it falls to us, the Boundary Committee for England, to complete the work of the LGCE and submit final recommendations to the Electoral Commission. • This report summarises the representations received by the LGCE during consultation on its draft recommendations, and contains our final recommendations to the Electoral Commission. We found that the existing arrangements provide unequal representation of electors in East Cambridgeshire: • in 12 of the 18 wards the number of electors represented by each councillor varies by more than 10 per cent from the average for the district and six wards vary by more than 20 per cent; • by 2006 this situation is expected to improve slightly, with the number of electors per councillor forecast to vary by more than 10 per cent from the average in 11 wards and by more than 20 per cent in five wards. Our main final recommendations for future electoral arrangements (see Tables 1 and 2 and paragraphs 85–86) are that: • East Cambridgeshire District Council should have 39 councillors, two more than at present; • there should be 19 wards, instead of 18 as at present; • the boundaries of 14 of the existing wards should be modified, resulting in a net increase of one, and four wards should retain their existing boundaries. The purpose of these proposals is to ensure that, in future, each district councillor represents approximately the same number of electors, bearing in mind local circumstances. • In 12 of the proposed 19 wards the number of electors per councillor would vary by no more than 10 per cent from the district average. • This improved level of electoral equality is forecast to continue, with the number of electors per councillor in only one ward, Downham Villages, expected to vary by more than 10 per cent from the average for the district by 2006. BOUNDARY COMMITTEE FOR ENGLAND 7 Recommendations are also made for changes to parish and town council electoral arrangements which provide for: • revised warding arrangements and the redistribution of councillors for the parish of Ely; • new warding arrangements and the redistribution of councillors for the parishes of Littleport, Soham and Woodditton. All further correspondence on these final recommendations and the matters discussed in this report should be addressed to the Electoral Commission, which will not make an Order implementing them before 4 June 2002: The Secretary Electoral Commission Trevelyan House Great Peter Street London SW1P 2HW 8 BOUNDARY COMMITTEE FOR ENGLAND Table 1: Final Recommendations: Summary Ward name Number of Constituent areas Map reference councillors 1 Bottisham 2 The parishes of Bottisham, Brinkley, Burrough Map 2 Green, Lode and Westley Waterless 2 Burwell 3 Unchanged – the parish of Burwell Map 2 3 Cheveley 2 The parishes of Ashley, Cheveley and Kirtling and Maps 2 and A2 the proposed Woodditton Urban parish ward of Woodditton parish 4 Downham Villages 2 The parishes of Coveney, Downham, Mepal and Map 2 Witcham 5 Dullingham Villages 1 The parishes of Dullingham and Stetchworth and Maps 2 and A2 the proposed Woodditton Rural parish ward of Woodditton parish 6 Ely East 2 Part of Ely parish (the proposed Ely East parish Large map and ward) Map 2 7 Ely North 3 Part of Ely parish (the proposed Ely North parish Large map and ward) Map 2 8 Ely South 2 Part of Ely parish (the proposed Ely South parish Large map and ward) Map 2 9 Ely West 2 Part of Ely parish (the proposed Ely West parish Large map and ward) Map 2 10 Fordham Villages 2 Unchanged – the parishes of Chippenham, Map 2 Fordham, Kennett and Snailwell 11 Haddenham 3 The parishes of Haddenham, Wentworth and Map 2 Witchford 12 Isleham 1 Unchanged – the parish of Isleham Map 2 13 Littleport East 2 Part of Littleport parish (the proposed Littleport Large map and East parish ward) Map 2 14 Littleport West 2 Part of Littleport parish (the proposed Littleport Large map and West parish ward) Map 2 15 Soham North 2 Part of Soham parish (the proposed Soham North Large map and parish ward) Map 2 16 Soham South 3 The parish of Wicken; part of Soham parish (the Large map and proposed Soham South parish ward) Map 2 17 Stretham 2 The parishes of Stretham, Thetford and Wilburton Map 2 18 Sutton 2 The parish of Sutton Map 2 19 The Swaffhams 1 Unchanged – the parishes of Reach, Swaffham Map 2 Bulbeck and Swaffham Prior Notes: 1 The whole district is parished. 2 The wards on the above table are illustrated on Map 2, Maps A1–A2 in Appendix A and the large maps at the back of the report. 3 We have made a number of minor boundary amendments to ensure that existing ward boundaries adhere to ground detail.

  • Local Plan Proposed Submission November 2017
    East Cambridgeshire Local Plan Proposed Submission November 2017 East Cambridgeshire District Council | Local Plan Proposed Submission Foreword Foreword East Cambridgeshire is characterised by its rural farming and equine landscape, interspersed with the City of Ely, small market towns and a wide range of attractive small and medium villages. Within that landscape are some real gems. The magnificent Ely Cathedral sitting proud as a the ‘ship of the fens’; Wicken Fen, which casts us back to a time before humans dominated the planet; the world famous Newmarket July Racecourse; and Anglesey Abbey, with its beautiful formal and informal grounds attracting visitors from far and wide. It’s no wonder that in 2012, the district scooped top spot in the Halifax’s annual rural areas quality of life survey. But there is so much potential to make East Cambridgeshire an even better place: with quality homes people can afford, easier access to shops, workplaces, services and facilities, and new thriving communities, which are welcoming and safe; where new facilities and infrastructure mean that businesses choose to expand or relocate here, bringing jobs and stimulating investment; to visit, a place where people choose to come to enjoy our nature, our history, our shops, our eateries and attractions, while at the same time significantly contributing to our rural and urban economies. And, fundamentally, we need to get building. We need to build a better East Cambridgeshire. In 2014/15, we only built 163 homes across the whole district, and only slightly higher figures of 181 homes in 2015/16 and 232 homes in 2016/17.

  • Local Government Boundary Commission - Review of Cambridgeshire County Council
    Local Government Boundary Commission - Review of Cambridgeshire County Council East Cambridgeshire - Conservative Party Response from South East Cambridgeshire Conservative Association (SECCA) Summary 1. We believe that single Member Divisions provide for the most effective local government in East Cambridgeshire, giving greater clarity to the electorate and to City, Town and Parish Councils and other local organisations. 2. Our preferred scenario (scenario 1) is based on 63 Members, meaning that 9 will be in East Cambridgeshire. This proposed scenario allows for provision of single Member Divisions, achieves good electoral equality, provides for convenient and effective local government and offers the best solution, by some margin, in terms of reflecting community interests and identity. 2.1. We strongly believe that the Boundary Commission’s proposal for two 2 Member Divisions (within the 61 Member scenario) has made serious compromises to both community interests and identity and to convenient and effective local government, markedly so for the proposed Littleport West Division (Division 16). The geographical size and marked difference in service needs of different parts of this Division could cause conflict in Members’ ability to represent the whole of the Division effectively. 2.2. Sutton, and particularly the villages to the south of Sutton (Wentworth, Witchford, Haddenham, Aldreth, Wilburton, Stretham and Little Thetford) are totally remote from Littleport - geographically (residents of those areas look to Ely and Cambridge and do not use or travel to Littleport), culturally (residents of those areas do not link themselves in any way to Littleport), demographically and in terms of service need (educational, economic and health and wellbeing needs are markedly different).

    Community-Led Development Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) - Consultation Statement February 2016 1. Introduction 1.1. The Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 requires the council to consult the public and stakeholders before adopting a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD). Regulation 12(a) requires a Statement to be prepared setting out who has been consulted while preparing the SPD; a summary of the main issues raised; and how these issues have been addressed in the final SPD. 1.2. The draft SPD sets out East Cambridgeshire District Council’s approach to community-led development proposals. It is aimed at local communities, Parish Councils and landowners, and seeks to provide people with a better understanding of how planning applications for community-led development proposals may be assessed by the Council. 1.3. Guidance on how GROWTH 6 policy along with other Local Plan policies will be applied when assessing proposals for community-led development is discussed in the draft SPD. It also provides direction on the information required to be submitted with planning applications such as, engagement with the community, organisational structure and financial information. 1.4. When adopted, the SPD will be a material consideration when considering planning applications in East Cambridgeshire. 2. Consultation Undertaken to Date (i.e. up to 3 November 2015) 2.1. In preparing this SPD, internal consultation within the Council has taken place and this has resulted in the drafting and refining of the content of the consultation draft SPD.
