    Planning and Highways Committee 19th January 2021 Agenda Item No.: 6 Dear Sir or Madam On 6th December 2017, a section 31(6) Highways Act 1980 statement and map was entered onto the West Berkshire Council (WBC) section 31A Highways Act 1980 register, covering land owned by West Berkshire Council and managed by Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire Wildlife Trust (BBOWT). A corresponding declaration has now been made and entered onto the section 31A Highways Act 1980 register, as required to complete the process under section 31(6) Highways Act 1980. The process legally demonstrates that there has been no intention of dedicating any additional public rights of way over the affected land shown edged red on the seven attached plans (which are attached as one combine document) during the past three years. Any public rights of way that existed across the land prior to December 2017 are not affected by the process. There is no intention to alter access to any of these sites in relation to the above process, which is a standard process where multiple large areas are open to public access under one ownership. Let me know if you have any queries or need any more information. Kind regards Stuart Higgins Definitive Map Officer Countryside West Berkshire Council Market Street Newbury RG14 5LD This will not affect existing public rights of way that are already recorded on the West Berkshire Council Definitive Map and Statement, or any unrecorded public rights of way that can be proven to exist CA17 (Declaration) Notice Ref. 87 (West Berkshire Council Countryside sites) Notice of landowner deposit under section 31(6) of the Highways Act 1980 West Berkshire District Council An application to deposit a declaration under section 31(6) of the Highways Act 1980 has been made in relation to the land described below and shown edged in red on the accompanying map.

    BURGHCLERE PARISH NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN 2011 – 2029 Referendum Version © Richard Carrow Published by Burghclere Parish Council for examination under the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012 (as amended). 6th May 2021 Courtesy of Lottie Baker, Burghclere Primary School Guide to Reading this Plan Of necessity, this Neighbourhood Plan is a detailed technical document. The purpose of this page is to explain the structure and help you find your way around the plan. 1. Introduction & Background This section explains the background to the Neighbourhood Plan. 2. The Neighbourhood Area This section details many of the features of the designated area. 3. Planning Policy Context This technical section relates this Plan to the National Planning Policy Framework and the planning policies of Basingstoke & Deane Borough Council. 4. Community Views on Planning Issues This section explains the community involvement that has taken place. 5. Vision, Objectives & Land Use Policies This is the key section. Firstly, it provides a statement on the Neighbourhood Plan Vision and Objectives. It then details Policies which are proposed to address the issues outlined in the Foreword and in Section 4. These Policies are listed on page 6. There are Policy Maps at the back of the plan to which the policies cross reference. 6. Implementation This section explains how the Plan will be implemented and future development guided and managed. It suggests projects which might be supported by the Community Infrastructure Levy, which the Parish Council will have some influence over. Finally, it deals with a number of issues which although relevant are outside the scope of a Neighbourhood Plan.

  • Environment Agency Permitting Decisions What This Document Is
    Environment Agency permitting decisions What this document is about This is a draft decision document, which accompanies a draft permit. It explains how we have considered the Applicant’s Application, and why we have included the specific conditions in the draft Permit we are proposing to issue to the Applicant. It is our record of our decision-making process, to show how we have taken into account all relevant factors in reaching our position. Unless this document explains otherwise, we have accepted the Applicant’s proposals. This document is in draft at this stage, because we have yet to make a final decision. Before we make this decision we want to explain our thinking to the public and other interested parties, to give them a chance to understand that thinking and, if they wish, to make relevant representations to us. We will make our final decision only after carefully taking into account any relevant matters raised in the responses we receive. Our mind remains open at this stage: although we believe we have covered all the relevant issues and reached a reasonable conclusion, our ultimate decision could yet be affected by any information that is relevant to the issues we have to consider. However, unless we receive information that leads us to alter the conditions in the draft Permit, or to reject the Application altogether, we will issue the Permit in its current form. In this document we say “we have decided”. That gives the impression that our mind is already made up; but as we have explained above, we have not yet done so.
