Minutes of the Horncastle Town Council Meeting Held on 12 December 2017 at 7.00Pm in the Stanhope Hall MINUTES OF THE HORNCASTLE TOWN COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON 12 DECEMBER 2017 AT 7.00PM IN THE STANHOPE HALL In the chair: Councillor Burbidge Present: Councillors Aron, Birchall, Lamb, Lechler, F Martin, J Martin, Moore, Roark and Stott In attendance: A Bushell - Town Clerk 4 members of the public J Fieldhouse - Horncastle News N Wass - PCSO Public participation: A member of the public spoke about LCC’s gritting routes for the town and handed out maps showing the routes for Horncastle, Lincoln and Grantham. The resident queried why Grantham and Lincoln had twice as many roads gritted than Horncastle. He commented that the town had grown but the gritting route had not changed, and he appealed for the Town Council to make representation to LCC Highways to bring Horncastle in line with larger towns in the county. The resident suggested the roads that should be added to the gritting route for Horncastle. Cllr Aron responded by stating that 4 gritting lorries left the local depot and they prioritised A and B roads. They were currently at full capacity, so in order to add new roads some of the existing roads would need to be removed from the route. A Foundry Street resident spoke about the parking issues in Foundry Street and thanked the Council for the e-mail correspondence that she had received on this matter. She informed the Council that residents had not been made aware of the changes to the car park at the fire station as stated by Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue. A member of the public informed the Council that he felt that the Joseph Banks Centre needed to be better advertised because it was an asset to the town, and half of residents were no aware that the Tourist Information Centre was located there. The Town Council was asked to encourage more knowledge of who Joseph Banks was and his connection to the town because it was not well understood. The resident was informed that the Joseph Banks Centre was represented at the Horncastle Together meetings, and there were lots of other opportunities for the Joseph Bank centre to promote itself, one of which was the new Horncastle Matters Community magazine. Cllr F Martin agreed to suggest to ELDC that it paid for an advert to promote the Tourist Information Centre in the next issue of the Horncastle Matters magazine. It was suggested that the Joseph Banks Centre should be promoting itself in the magazine too. 121. CHAIRMAN’S REMARKS Cllr Burbidge reported that he had attended the launch of the Horncastle Matters Community magazine, and the Church Christmas Tree Festival since the previous meeting. He mentioned that there had been a good turnout on Sunday at the Christmas Festival, despite the weather. 122.

DRAFT 2018/19 BUDGET PRODUCED BY THE PERSONNEL & FINANCE COMMITTEE Councillors received the draft budget and a recommendation from the Personnel & Finance Committee that the 2018/19 precept should go up by 2%. The Clerk ran through the changes to budget items that were being proposed by the Estates Management and the Personnel & Finance Committees. The draft budget was received without any questions. Councillors were reminded that the budget would be formally adopted and the precept set at the Town Council meeting in January. 129. UPDATE ON THE FOUNDRY STREET PARKING ISSUE; AND TO CONSIDER WHAT IF ANY ACTION THE TOWN COUNCIL WILL TAKE OR RECOMMEND TO ELDC, LCC OR THE RESIDENTS OF THE STREET Councillors received a report which included clarification from Lincolnshire Fire & Rescue on the new car park at the Fire Station in Foundry Street, the response from ELDC sent to a Foundry Street resident regarding an enquiry about a resident’s parking permit scheme, and a list of alternative solutions to address the parking issues which had been suggested by Cllr Stott. The Clerk reported that Highways had confirmed that the request to look at whether additional parking spaces could be created on the street by the removal of double yellow lines or marking out new parking bays had been added to the list of areas to be looked at, but Highways were unable to confirm the timescales for doing this. The Highways Officer had taken a quick look at the street and they felt that there was scope to reduce the length of the traffic restrictions and increase the number of parking bays. Cllr F Martin confirmed that she had spoken with ELDC about resident’s parking permit schemes and she explained why ELDC wouldn’t look at a permit scheme for Foundry Street. It was acknowledged that the main parking issue on Foundry Street was that there simply wasn’t enough parking spaces, therefore a permit scheme wouldn’t resolve this. Cllr Burbidge suggested that this was an item that should be brought up at a Highways Cluster meeting, but since it had been agreed that Cluster meetings would only take place annually then it would not be that helpful.

  • Adopted Central Lincolnshire Local Plan
    CENTRAL LINCOLNSHIRE Local Plan Adopted April 2017 Central Lincolnshire | Local Plan - Adopted April 2017 Foreword Ensuring a flourishing future for Central Lincolnshire Central Lincolnshire is characterised by its diverse and enticing landscape. The magnificent city of Lincoln is embedded within our beautiful landscape and is surrounded by a network of picturesque towns and villages: these places, along with the social and economic opportunities in the area, make Central Lincolnshire a fantastic place to live, work and visit. But there is so much potential to make Central Lincolnshire an even better place. An even better place to live, with quality homes people can afford, easier access to shops, services and facilities, and new thriving communities, which are welcoming and safe. An even better place to work, where new facilities and infrastructure mean that businesses choose to expand or relocate here, bringing jobs and stimulating investment. An even better place 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. A new Local Plan for Central Lincolnshire can do this. This is the adopted Local Plan for Central Lincolnshire. It was prepared with the benefit of your very helpful comments we received at various draft stages. Inside this adopted Local Plan are policies for the growth and regeneration of Central Lincolnshire over the next 20 years and beyond, including sites allocated for development and other areas designated for protection. The policies within the Local Plan will make sure that our settlements grow in the right way, ensure we have homes and employment where we need them, and ensure our new communities are sustainable, accessible and inclusive.

Southern Lincolnshire Edge Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper,1 Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention,3 we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas North (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which East follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features England that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each London area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental South East Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. South West The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.
