MONITORING OF EXECUTIVE MEMBER DECISIONS The Borough Solicitor submitted a report which provided an update on decisions taken at previous meetings of the Executive Cabinet Member. The Executive Cabinet Member NOTED the report. 68. GREATER MANCHESTER PARTNERSHIP MIPIM 2018 The Director of Place submitted a report which sought the Executive Cabinet Member’s approval for Bolton Council to participate, in association with identified partners, in MIPIM 2018 as part of the Greater Manchester Partnership. The report advised that MIPIM was the world’s premier real estate and it brought together the most influential decision makers in the industry and offered access to the largest showcase of development opportunities during the event. As a result, it was felt appropriate for the Council to attend next year’s event which would be held from 13th to 16th March, 2018. This would be in association with key partners in order to present the overall Bolton proposition, in particular the Bolton Town Centre Masterplan, Rivington Chase and the continued development at Logistics North. It was also stated that all of the costs associated with this event for Bolton Council would be met by the Council’s sponsors. Following a recommendation from the Cabinet Member for Development and Regeneration and Human Resources, the Executive Cabinet Member APPROVED the participation of Bolton Council, in association with identified partners, in MIPIM 2018 as part of the Greater Manchester Partnership. 69. PROPOSED HORWICH NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN – APPLICATION FOR DESIGNATION OF A NEIGHBOURHOOD AREA The Director of Place submitted a report which sought the Executive Cabinet Member’s approval to the proposal from Horwich Town Council for the designation of a Neighbourhood Area. The Executive Cabinet Member was advised that the 2011 Localism Act introduced a right for communities to prepare Neighbourhood Plans. In Horwich, the Town Council had the power to formulate a Neighbourhood Plan and Bolton Council had statutory responsibilities to assist the Town Council and carry out some of the required procedures. The report informed the Executive Cabinet Member that the Town Council had applied to Bolton Council to designate the whole of Horwich parish as a Neighbourhood Area and this was the first stage in the preparation of a Neighbourhood Plan. It was also explained that as the proposed application is from the Town Council, and was for the whole geographical extent of the Town Council area, revised regulations meant that no further steps, for example notification or consultation with the Horwich community, was needed before the Council considered the boundary. In addition, the Council had no scope to amend the boundary. In view of the above, it was recommended that Bolton Council should designate the requested Neighbourhood Area for Horwich in accordance with the relevant Neighbourhood Plan regulations. Following a recommendation from the Cabinet Member for Development and Regeneration and Human Resources, the Executive Cabinet Member AGREED to designate a Neighbourhood Area for Horwich in accordance with Horwich Town Council’s request of 31st October, 2017. 70. DRAFT CHURCH WHARF SUPPLEMENTARY PLANNING DOCUMENT The Director of Place submitted a report which sought the Executive Cabinet Member’s approval of the draft Church Wharf Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) for use as a basis for public consultation prior to adoption. By way of background the Executive Cabinet Member was advised that the Church Wharf Development Brief was originally approved by the Executive Cabinet Member and adopted as a SPD in February, 2008. However, since this time there was now a need for it to be updated for the following reasons:- To account for the new Economic Strategy and Town Centre Strategy including a focus on residential-led regeneration and development; It was necessary to further clarify updated local policies, including the Core Strategy and contextual changes contained within the masterplan; There was a need to clarify additional highway design and flood risk principles; and The boundary of the draft SPD had been amended and changes made to the core area with regard to need for comprehensive development. It was explained that the SPD comprised a development brief guiding the regeneration of Church Wharf, one of the key target intervention areas within the Town Centre Strategy. Furthermore, Church Wharf offered a major opportunity for private sector led investment to redevelop the area and remain attractive to a comprehensive residential-led regeneration. It was also a strategically important site which was vitally important to the economic growth of the town centre and required strategic infrastructure investment. The Executive Cabinet Member was also informed that the SPD provided guidance on the planning policies relating to this site, the factors which would constrain any development and the appropriate mix of uses. Drainage issues were significant with the riverside location and presence of a storm water retention tank. In addition, the SPD stressed the need for the comprehensive redevelopment of the area and made reference to the potential use of the council’s powers of Compulsory Purchase (CPO) should these be required. It was also stated the draft SPD had been considered by the Economy and Development Policy Development Group where a number of comments were raised and the SPD had been amended to reflect these. A copy of the refreshed draft SPD was detailed in Appendix 1 to the report and, if approved, would be subject to public consultation for a period of six weeks. This would include statutory consultees and businesses, residents and landowners in the area. Following a recommendation from the Cabinet Member for Development and Regeneration and Human Resources, the Executive Cabinet Member APPROVED the draft Church Wharf Supplementary Planning Document and AUTHORISED the Director of Place to carry out public consultation. CONFIDENTIAL ITEMS The background papers and reports in relation to the following items were considered confidential as defined in paragraphs 1 and 3 of Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972 and that it be deemed that, in all the circumstances of the case, the public interest in their exemption outweighs the public interest in their disclosure. 71. PROPOSED SAVINGS AND EFFICIENCIES REVIEW OF MARKETING AND COMMUNICATIONS The Borough Solicitor submitted a report which set out savings and efficiencies proposals in respect of the Marketing and Communications Team to contribute to the budget option identified as ‘Review of Policy and Communications’ contained within the 2017/2019 budget programme. The proposals, if agreed, would form the basis for consultation with trade unions, staff, elected members and key service users. Final proposals, with any changes where appropriate, would be considered after an appropriate period of consultation, with anticipated implementation commencing in April, 2018. The relevant Equality Impact Assessment had been undertaken and was detailed in Appendix 3 to the report. Following a recommendation from the Cabinet Member for Development and Regeneration and Human Resources, the Executive Cabinet Member APPROVED – The proposals in respect of the Marketing and Communications Team, as detailed in the report, for consultation purposes with trades unions, staff and stakeholders. 72. CYCLE TO WORK SCHEME RE-TENDER 2018 The Director of Place submitted a report which sought the Executive Cabinet Member’s approval to procure a scheme operator for the Council’s Cycle to Work salary sacrifice scheme. By way of background, the Executive Cabinet Member was advised that Bolton’s Cycle to Work scheme in its current format was initiated in November, 2013 following an open tender process. The contract was prepared for four years in total and the contract was awarded to Cyclescheme. Consequently, in view of the above it was now necessary to repeat the procurement process to secure a new contract. The scheme would be procured in line with procurement regulations, using a call-off from an open framework, or open tender should the framework prove unsuitable. At the same time amendments to the scheme were proposed including raising the value of the scheme and the introduction of flexibility around the hire period. Following a recommendation from the Cabinet Member for Development and Regeneration and Human Resources the Executive Cabinet Member NOTED the current scheme and its ongoing development; APPROVED the procurement of a scheme operator to continue the Cycle to Work Scheme; and

  • Horwich (Officer Comment: As the Application Is in Outline the Types of Houses Are Not Yet Proposed
    based upon the draft GMSF. A development of 276 houses is therefore entirely disproportionate in terms of Horwich's housing need and not required; * The types of houses proposed within the development will not be what is actually required in Horwich (Officer comment: as the application is in outline the types of houses are not yet proposed. 34% of the dwellings will however be secured as affordable units, which there is a recognised need for in Horwich); * Horwich Neighbourhood Plan is progressing, will soon become a material consideration and the test for housing supply falls to a 3-year supply figure as opposed to 5-years. The Neighbourhood Plan will make the protection of green space a key objective and Horwich Golf Course has been proposed as a community asset; * There is still a question mark over the deliverability of the site and the applicant has not confirmed whether it would develop the site itself; * The number of houses being built in Horwich is disproportionate to those being built elsewhere in Bolton. Horwich has become Bolton's overspill. Horwich is now a building site; * There are plenty of houses that have permission to be built on brownfield land. Houses should be built in Bolton town centre instead; * Horwich is becoming over populated; * There is not a shortage of housing supply in the area; Infrastructure * Need more schools, GPs, dentists, youth centres and local services for the extra demand that would be created by the development; * Current infrastructure problems need to be addressed. The present infrastructure is already struggling and would be unable to cope with the additional houses; * Local schools are short of places.

    February 2019 THE MAGAZINE OF THE HORWICH & RIVINGTON TEAM CHURCHES Price 60p LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF: I’m Nicola Butterworth and am delighted to have been given the opportunity to join you as Team Curate. You may know I visited the churches in the team as a ‘secret shopper’ last autumn, the warm welcome in each place was greatly appreciated. Although I came unannounced, my appearance is distinctive; I have alopecia and usually wear a scarf. Philip and I have been married for 27 years (see right) and have three sons David, Mark and Jonathan (see left). Two are at home and the other married. Philip’s dad lives with us due to his failing health; we have a border collie called Solo who is a little bit loopy and very sensitive. Philip is a self- employed driving instructor, a job he’s done for the past 26 years. Home for us is Leigh and we live just around the corner from Pennington Flash. Each day as we open our bedroom curtains our view is of the Pike and Winter Hill; little did I know what God had on the horizon! I’ve been studying with All Saint’s College for Mission and Ministry in Manchester, while continuing to work as a self-employed peripatetic piano and keyboard teacher working for Wigan Music Service along with some private teaching. I enjoy watching films, music of most genres, gardening, baking and drinking coffee. I came to faith as a teenager while at Christ Church Pennington in Leigh, although I currently worship within the Astley, Tyldesley and Mosley Common ministry team.

  • NP Feasibility Report
    A Feasibility Report for a Neighbourhood Plan for Horwich - 1 - Background Neighbourhood planning is a right for communities introduced through the Localism Act 2011. Communities can shape development in their areas through the production of Neighbourhood Plans. It is recognised that the plans produced cannot block development that is already part of the Local Plan. What they can do is shape where that development will go and what it will look like. They are a building block for the future as the research, community engagement and insight will form an evidence base to assist in the formulation of future planning strategies. Since 2012 NP’s have really taken off and with over 350 now completed across England the government is keen to hear from more communities. <https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/600043/Notes_on_NP_edition_19_A ccessible_Version.pdf> Introduction In the next 10 years Horwich is expected to see a 25% increase in its population, from the existing 20,000 to 25,000. This is as a result of approved planning applications for new residential developments, and there may well be other 'windfall' sites to add to this figure. The town therefore needs to have in place matching plans for new health, welfare, social and educational facilities to cater for this growth, as well as plans to safeguard the local environment and employment. With a remit from Horwich Town Council, the NPAG was asked to prepare a report on the feasibility of a Neighbourhood Plan and associated tasks, leading to its adoption with specific objectives. These objectives were considered by the NPAG and researched by reading The Local Development Framework Core Strategy which was adopted in March 2011.
