  • Leicestershire Sustainable Community Strategy
    LEICESTERSHIRE SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY STRATEGY FINAL DRAFT MARCH 2008 1 Introduction I am pleased to present our Sustainable Community Strategy to you on behalf of Leicestershire Together, the Local Strategic Partnership for Leicestershire. Leicestershire Together includes all of the organisations and partnerships that deliver public services in Leicestershire, and we seek to improve the quality of life and of public services in the County. This draft Sustainable Community Strategy proposes priorities for improvement in Leicestershire over the next 5 years. These are largely based upon two draft evidence base reports ‘This is Leicestershire’ and ‘Places in Leicestershire’. The structure of the new Sustainable Community Strategy is quite different to that of the previous Community Strategy in that it focuses on what we are going to do rather than how we are going to do it. Our second Local Area Agreement (LAA2) is the key delivery framework for the strategy (the ‘how’ bit) – and more details on the LAA can be found later in this document. The challenge that faces us now is to deliver the ambitions outlined in this Strategy, making a real and measurable difference to the lives of Leicestershire people. David Parsons Chair, Leicestershire Together Contact details: Telephone: 0116 305 6977/8137 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.leicestershiretogether.org Write to us: Policy Team, Chief Executives Department, Leicestershire County Council, County Hall, Glenfield, Leicestershire LE3 8RA 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Leicestershire Together Leicestershire Together is the Local Strategic Partnership for Leicestershire and includes all of the organisations and partnerships that deliver public services in the County. Our aim is to improve the quality of life for the people of Leicestershire and make Leicestershire the best possible place to live and work for everyone.

  • Agenda Item 5
    1 Agenda Item 5 COUNTY COUNCIL MEETING – 22ND MARCH 2017 POSITION STATEMENT FROM THE LEADER OF THE COUNCIL Midlands Engine/Midlands Connect Yesterday I had the opportunity to meet with Rt Hon Sajid Javid, the Communities Secretary and Midlands Engine Ministerial Champion and told him that as a member of the Midlands Engine Board and the Midlands Connect Board I welcome the recent Strategy and proposed investment of £392million announced by the Chancellor. This investment is in addition to the £1.5billion of Local Growth Fund investments in the Midlands that has already been announced. The Midlands, and in particular the East Midlands, has been at the forefront of the recent increase in economic growth and this new investment will enable us to create even more jobs and enhance growth by investing in infrastructure and helping people to acquire the necessary skills to enter the labour market and take advantage of the new opportunities on offer. The Midlands Connect Strategy sets out proposals for improving connectivity between the East and West Midlands and also between the Midlands and the rest of the country. It is particularly pleasing to see that the early priorities include proposals that I believe will have significant benefits for Leicestershire and the City of Leicester. A list of some of the proposals is at the back of this Statement. Over the next 3 years Midlands Connect will use £17million of Government funding to undertake planning and design work on these early priorities. The delivery of these projects will depend on further Government funding and I will ensure that this Council works with its Midlands Connect partners to secure the investment so that we can fulfil the economic potential.

Rural Leicestershire has a relatively smaller stock of jobs than the county as a whole and the England and Wales average in terms of job density. Rural Leicestershire is 30% of the population of the County – it is growing older more rapidly than the County and has a more steeply declining trend of young people than the County. The rural areas in Leicestershire’s districts are growing more slowly in terms of population than the districts as a whole.

  • Thurnby and Bushby
    Harborough District Council Settlement Profile: Thurnby and Bushby May 2015 General Introduction This settlement profile has been prepared as part of the evidence base for the preparation of the new Local Plan. The new Local Plan, which will cover the period 2011 – 2031, will review and replace existing Core Strategy policies. New evidence in the Strategic Housing Market Assessment (2014) shows that the number of new homes needed annually across the District to 2031 is substantially higher than the figure set out in the Core Strategy. The new Local Plan will set out a strategy to meet these higher housing numbers, whilst ensuring that sustainable economic development is supported, infrastructure is delivered, local communities are protected, environmental capacity is respected, the quality of the built environment and heritage assets are protected and the level of development is not disproportionate to the size of the settlement and the level of services. This profile seeks to summarise currently available evidence in relation to the settlement which, along with other evidence, will be used in determining the appropriate amount of development to be directed to the settlement to 2031. The profile does not seek to set out future policy as this will be done through the new Local Plan and any reference to Core Strategy policies is to provide context only. Section D of the profile sets out the findings of the Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA) for the settlement. It should be noted that the sites shown are not allocations and their inclusion in no way implies that planning permission for housing will be granted.
