  • Cheshire West & Chester Council
    CHESHIRE WEST & CHESTER COUNCIL: ELECTORAL REVIEW Submission to the Boundary Committee on Council Size. 1 Context 1.1 This submission sets out Cheshire West & Chester Council’s proposal on Council size. This is the first issue to be addressed in the electoral review of the area. The proposal is for a Council of 75 elected Members in Cheshire West & Chester. This proposal was made by resolution of the Council on 2 April 2009 at its first meeting after vesting day, on which it replaced former county and district councils. The three political parties represented on the Council; Conservative, Labour and Liberal Democrat, concurred in the making of the Council’s resolution. 1.2 The proposal has been formulated having regard to key principles of electoral review; that local government should be convenient to local people and effective. Further to these principles, the Council is of the belief that its proposal will ensure that all roles at political level can be carried out effectively, and will enable the authority to achieve its objective of being an exceptionally excellent Council. 1.3 Cheshire West & Chester is a newly created Unitary Council, delivering by direct provision or by commissioning, the full range of Local Authority services in its area. The range of its products is tremendous - from a direction sign on a footpath to the care of a vulnerable child. The Council has at its heart, the wish to serve the whole community of those who live in, work in, or otherwise visit Cheshire West and Chester. It serves a population of 329,100, the fourth largest of Unitary Local Authorities in the North West and the sixteenth largest in England.

  • Boating on Sussex Rivers
    K1&A - Soo U n <zj r \ I A t 1" BOATING ON SUSSEX RIVERS NRA National Rivers Authority Southern Region Guardians of the Water Environment BOATING ON SUSSEX RIVERS Intro duction NRA The Sussex Rivers have a unique appeal, with their wide valleys giving spectacular views of Chalk Downs within sight and smell of the sea. There is no better way to enjoy their natural beauty and charm than by boat. A short voyage inland can reveal some of the most attractive and unspoilt scenery in the Country. The long tidal sections, created over the centuries by flashy Wealden Rivers carving through the soft coastal chalk, give public rights of navigation well into the heartland of Sussex. From Rye in the Eastern part of the County, small boats can navigate up the River Rother to Bodiam with its magnificent castle just 16 miles from the sea. On the River Arun, in an even shorter distance from Littlehampton Harbour, lies the historic city of Arundel in the heart of the Duke of Norfolk’s estate. But for those with more energetic tastes, Sussex rivers also have plenty to offer. Increased activity by canoeists, especially by Scouting and other youth organisations has led to the setting up of regular canoe races on the County’s rivers in recent years. CARING FOR OUR WATERWAYS The National Rivers Authority welcomes all river users and seeks their support in preserving the tranquillity and charm of the Sussex rivers. This booklet aims to help everyone to enjoy their leisure activities in safety and to foster good relations and a spirit of understanding between river users.

  • June 1999 NUMBER2
    C & 0 Canal Association concerned with the conservation of the natural and historical environment of the C&O Canal and the Potomac River Basin VOLUME XXXI June 1999 NUMBER2 The Level Walker Issue As we with good reason emphasize the Level Walker Program in this issue of Along the Towpath, and muster extra strength which will surely be required to support the NPS "Trash in, Trash out" policy, I remind you that it was a level walker that introduced me to the Park in 1970. At that time I was so ignorant about canal matters that I thought, when he told me about being a "level walker", that he had gotten so old and decrepit that he could no longer handle hills and mountains. Needless to say, my 30 years along the towpath since then have provided abundant iilumination and practical experience as Linda and I have picked up trash and reported on conditions along our own three mile level. And I think that there is no more basic program of support for the park than this. I know of course that there are many ways we serve, and some of them more visible and interactive than this. But the scattered, often unseen and unthanked efforts that keep the park neat and attractive from one end to the other: why there is nothing more basic than this to make the towpath attractive to potential users. And we can tell those users who we are, and what we do, and invite them to join us on the level. --Tom Perry Several Months ago, a suggestion was made that an issue of Valley and the Canal, and who are willing to "patrol" a Along the Towpath be dedicated to Level Walkers--hence this section twice a year and report on its condition and its month's theme.

On 26 July 1985 we wrote to Bedfordshire County Council announcing our intention to undertake a review of the County under section 48{1) of the Local Government Act 1972. Copies of the letter were sent to the principal local authorities, and parishes, in Bedfordshire and in the surrounding counties of Buckinghamshire, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire and Northamptonshire; to the National and County Associations of Local Councils; to the Members of Parliament with constituency interests and to the headquarters of the main political parties. In addition, copies were sent to those government departments, regional health authorities, water authorities, and electricity and gas boards which might have an interest, as well as to British Telecom, the English Tourist Board, the local government press and to local television and radio stations serving the area. 2. The County Councils were requested, in co-operation as necessary with the other local authorities, to assist us in publicising the start of the review by inserting a notice for two successive weeks in local newspapers so as to give a wide coverage in the areas concerned.

The proposal includes facilities for materials recovery from waste, buildings for composting and other biological treatment, plant for the recovery of energy from residential waste through thermal treatment, a research and development complex, a visitor centre, continued landfill and associated day working, a new road access connecting to the Stoke Hammond bypass when constructed, offices and car parking, a new rail access and rail reception area comprising a rail spur from the Bletchley to Oxford line, rail sidings and an associated area for container loading, unloading and storage. The Application Site The application site extends to 155 hectares as the development site includes the existing landfill site. The final landform of the landfill site would be altered from that recently given planning permission to enable the proposed waste management facility to be sited at the lowered ground level within the former brick clay pit. The application site straddles the boundary of this authority and Buckinghamshire County Council. The parts of the application comprising the composting facility, the rail reception area and the southern part of the new access road would, therefore, fall to Buckinghamshire County Council to determine.

  • Iwa Submission on the Environment Bill – Appendix A
    IWA SUBMISSION ON THE ENVIRONMENT BILL – APPENDIX A IWA VISION FOR SUSTAINABLE PROPULSION ON THE INLAND WATERWAYS EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW 1. Recognising the UK Government’s strategy to reduce emissions from diesel and petrol engines, IWA formed its Sustainable Propulsion Group in 2019 to identify and monitor developments which will enable boats on the inland waterways to fully contribute to the Government’s stated aim of zero CO2 emissions by 2050. 2. The Group has identified a number potential solutions that it recommends should be progressed in order to ensure that boats used on the inland waterways do not get left behind in technological developments. These are outlined in more detail in this paper. 3. To ensure that the inland waterways continue to be sustainable for future generations, and continue to deliver benefits to society and the economy, IWA has concluded that national, devolved and local government should progress the following initiatives: Investment in infrastructure through the installation of 300 shore power mains connection charging sites across the connected inland waterways network. This would improve air quality by reducing the emissions from stoves for heating and engines run for charging batteries, as well as enabling a move towards more boats with electric propulsion. Working with navigation authorities, investment in a national dredging programme across the inland waterways to make propulsion more efficient. This will also have additional environmental benefits on water quality and increasing capacity for flood waters. Research and investment into the production, use and distribution of biofuels. This will be necessary to reduce the environmental impact of existing diesel engines which, given their longevity, will still be around until well after 2050.
