Chairman’s Initials S October County Council Report 2020 COVID 19 - The County Council in for the “long haul” in the fight against the virus. The council says there remains a rising trend in the number of positive Covid-19 cases across Leicestershire. However, at the time of writing 23/9/2020, the latest data shows that Oadby and Wigston’s rate has dropped to 94.6 per 100,000 but there has been increases in Blaby District to 72.7 and in Charnwood where figures are 42.7. In parts of Charnwood and Blaby, the Council is now delivering thousands of leaflets to people’s homes and businesses as well as contacting GP surgeries to highlight the need for people with symptoms to get a test. Mike Sandy’s, the County Council’s director of health said, “Although we welcome the government’s new restrictions, the clear message remains that it’s up to us all to fight the virus.” We all need to wash our hands regularly, use a face covering when social distancing is not possible and try to keep your distance from those not in your household. The Government has given councils new powers to help prevent, contain, and manage local COVID 19 outbreaks – this means councils can impose prohibitions, requirement or restrictions in relation to individual premises, events and public open spaces. Businesses across Leicestershire are also being urged to create an NHS QR code poster to make it easier for their customers to check-in to the national “test and trace” system. ww.gov.uk/create-coronavirus-qr-poster Business Recovery Fund Leicestershire County Council launched the fund of £750,000K in the summer and have given out grants of up to £10,000k to 16 companies to help them recover from the effects of COVID 19. Small businesses are still being urged to apply for their share of the fund. To find out more and apply visit www.oakleaves.org.uk/leicestershire-business- recovery-fund. Applications can be made for grants between £2,000 and £10,000 to ensure business recovery, through projects to help the business diversify, improve skills, or new technology or equipment. There is currently no deadline for applications but businesses should apply as soon as possible as funding will be allocated on a first come first served basis.

  • Burbage Parish Council's Response to the Blaby Local Plan
    Burbage Millennium Hall Hazel Thomasson Britannia Road Principal Officer Burbage www.burbage-council.co.uk Leicestershire LE10 2HF Tel: 01455 637533 by email to [email protected] 12th March 2021 Burbage Parish Council’s Response to the Blaby Local Plan We welcome this opportunity to provide further comments on the revised Blaby Local Plan which is intended to run until 2029 once adopted. Blaby District Council borders Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council on a broadly West/East basis with Burbage very much at this interface. The border between the two authorities runs through low density population areas which are mainly farmland in nature. The two authorities are also intersected by the M69 Coventry-Leicester motorway, the motorway being predominately inside the Blaby area, which leaves an annexed part of the Blaby District on the western side of the motorway, with Elmesthorpe being the only settlement of Blaby of this annexed part of the district. Within Hinckley and Bosworth the settlements of Hinckley and Burbage are separated by the Local Plan from Barwell and Earl Shilton by a Green Wedge policy of the current local plan adopted by the Borough. This wish by residents to maintain a green spatial element between these settlements is very strong and fully supported by Burbage Parish Council. Although these are now predominately urban settlements, the rural connection and feel is extremely important to residents. On the western (Hinckley side) of the map (see Figure 1) there is also a spatial separation of these settlements (Hinckley, Burbage, Barwell and Earl Shilton) from the eastern settlements within Blaby (Elmesthorpe, Stoney Stanton, Sapcote, Aston Flamville and Sharnford).
