DECLARATIONS OF INTE REST Councillor Bryan Lodge declared a disclosable pecuniary interest in item of business number 11 on the Council Summons (concerning City Centre Parking) because he owns a business in the City centre. Councillor Ben Curran declared a personal interest in item of business number 10 on the Council Summons (concerning Food Banks) because he is a Trustee of Ben’s Centre. 3. MINUTES OF PREVIOUS COUNCIL MEETING RESOLVED: On the Motion of Councillor Pat Midgley, seconded by Councillor Gill Furniss, that the minutes of the meeting held on 7 November 2012 be approved as a correct record. 4. PUBLIC QUESTIONS AND PETITIONS AND OTHER COMMUNICATIONS 4.1 Petitions (a) Petition requesting the Government to condemn recent att empts to cause office to Muslim communities Council received a petition requesting the Government to condemn recent attempts to cause offence to Muslim communities. On behalf of the petitioners, Mohammed Ali addressed the Council. He referred to a film, which had been posted on the You Tube website, which caused deliberate offence to people in the Muslim community and he said that such actions had heighted tensions in communities. He stated that, in Sheffield, the Federation of Mosques had worked with the community and South Yorkshire Police toward a collective approach to building a peaceful society. The petition collected signatures from all Mosques in the City and requested the condemnation of the content of the film which had been posted on You Tube. He asked that this be brought to the Government’s attention by the Council and local MPs. Mr Ali requested that the Council send a message to the Federation of Mosques that it would seek changes to the law relating to respect for people’s religious beliefs and does not tolerate people making hateful comments concerning a particular religion. Page 3 of 54 Page 7 Council 5.12.2012 The Council referred the petition to the Leader of the Council (Councillor Julie Dore), who thanked the Federation of Mosques for bringing the petition to Council. Councillor Dore stated that she believed that Council were united in joining the petitioners in their outrage, particularly in relation to the content of the film to which Mr Ali had referred. Councillor Dore referred to existing laws relating to racial hatred and stated that she was aware that the film makers had been questioned by the authorities. In relation to community cohesion, she stated that Sheffield was privileged to have a Muslim community and she praised the way in which the community worked with the Council and other agencies to ensure that we have a safe City. Councillor Dore referred to the power of film as a medium to reach a mass audience, but believed that this particular case showed the potentially damaging use of film. She stated that people that incite racial or religious hatred should be treated in a robust manner. The Council would write to all of the responsible Secretaries of State in relation to this matter, including the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, and will also write to Sheffield MPs. (b) Petition objecting to the withdrawal of zero fare bus passes for children attending Church schools The Council received a petition objecting to the withdrawal of zero fare bus passes for children attending church schools. Representations on behalf of the petitioners were made by Jim Conway who referred to anxiety felt by the Catholic community concerning the withdrawal of zero fare bus passes for children attending church schools. The local authority had previously given assurances that free transport would be provided for children attending schools following previous secondary school closures. He stated that this was the basis of trust between the City’s elected representatives and the Catholic community. Free transport for children attending Catholic schools should be provided in line with that provided to pupils attending other schools and he asked why those in the Catholic community should be treated less well. In addition, families on low incomes would be the most disadvantaged by the proposals, especially if the family income was marginally above that which gave entitlement to free school meals. The Equalities Impact Assessment states that there would be adverse impact on some Catholic families in particular. The Council referred the petition to the Cabinet Member for Children, Young People and Families (Councillor Jackie Drayton). Councillor Drayton stated that she agreed that the situation was distressing but emphasised that no Councillor wished to discriminate against people of the Catholic faith. The Council had statutory duties in relation to school transport but because of the current financial situation it was having to look at all discretionary provision. She stated that circumstances had changed since the time of the agreement Page 4 of 54 Page 8 Council 5.12.2012 relating to school closures made in 1976. The Government were making reductions to the Council budget, including a reduction of £6 million from the Early Intervention Grant. The funding reductions were disproportionately affecting places in the north of England. Councillor Drayton stated that she had read all of the letters and other email correspondence that had been received as part of the consultation and responded to the points that had been raised. She asked if it was possible for schools and the Diocese to come together to consider whether it would be possible to create a hardship fund to help families that are in financial hardship to ensure that their children can continue to attend their school. She added that she valued the work of Catholic schools and the role of people of the Catholic faith in community life and charity projects. It was noted that other faith groups were also alleging that they were being discriminated against in the proposals relating to bus passes. However, the Council needed to look at the budget as a whole. (c) Petition requesting the restoration of street art on Eyre Sreet The Council received a petition containing 12 signatures and requesting the restoration of street art on Eyre Street. The Council referred the petition to the Cabinet Member for Business, Skills and Development (Councillor Leigh Bramall). (d) Petition requesting the acquisition of land adjacent to 43 Westbrook Road, Chapeltown, by Thorncliffe Cricket and Social Club The Council received a petition containing 5 signatures and requesting the acquisition of land adjacent to 43 Westbrook Road, Chapeltown, by Thorncliffe Cricket and Social Club. The Council referred the petition to the Cabinet Member for Business, Skills and Development (Councillor Leigh Bramall). (e) Petition requesting the Council not to reverse the ban on Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) on Bocking Lane The Council received a petition containing 390 signatures requesting the Council not to reverse the ban on HGVs using Bocking Lane. Representations on behalf of the petitioners were made by Stuart Smith. Mr Smith referred to the ban on Heavy Goods Vehicles using Bocking Lane, which was introduced in 2010/11 and the use of Abbey Lane as a preferred route to accommodate HGVs as it was not tree lined and had a comparatively gentle gradient. He was not aware of a change in circumstances which might lead to a reversal of the ban on Bocking Lane. With reference to the school on Abbey Lane, he considered that relatively few HGVs used Abbey Lane during school periods and referred to a survey in September 2011, which showed that there were fewer HGVs using Abbey Lane in 2011 than in 2004. He Page 5 of 54 Page 9 Council 5.12.2012 stated that petitioners would like to see wider discussion with Derbyshire County Council and reiterated that a reversal of the original HGV ban should not be made on health and safety grounds.

    Sheffield Street Tree Strategy Development Group

    Sheffield Street Tree Strategy Development Group i-Tree Eco Stratified Inventory Report November 2019 The Authors James Watson - Treeconomics Reviewed By: Danielle Hill - Treeconomics This assessment was carried out by Treeconomics 1 Executive Summary In this report, the street trees in Sheffield have been assessed based on the benefits that they provide to society. These trees, which form part of Sheffield’s natural capital, are generally recognised and appreciated for their amenity, presence and stature in the cityscape and surroundings. However, society is often unaware of the many other benefits (or ecosystem services) that trees provide to those living in our towns and cities. The trees in and around our urban areas (together with woodlands, shrubs, hedges, open grass, green space and wetland) are collectively known as the ‘urban forest’. This urban forest improves our air, protects watercourses, saves energy, and improves economic sustainability1. There are also many health and well-being benefits associated with being in close proximity to trees and there is a growing research base to support this2. Sheffield’s street trees are a crucial part of the city’s urban forest, rural areas and woodlands. Many of the benefits that Sheffield’s urban forest provides are offered through its street trees. Economic valuation of the benefits provided by our natural capital3 (including the urban forest) can help to mitigate for development impacts, inform land use changes and reduce any potential impact through planned intervention to avoid a net loss of natural capital. Such information can be used to help make better management decisions. Yet, as the benefits provided by such natural capital are often poorly understood, they are often undervalued in the decision making process.

  • Burngreave & Fir Vale

    Burngreave & Fir Vale

    Burngreave & Fir Vale Summary of Evaluation Work SECTION ONE - BACKGROUND Burngreave and Firvale Sure Start programme was agreed December 2000. Staff were in post April 2001 services were delivered May/June 2001. AREA DESCRIPTION The Burngreave and Firvale Sure Start area is diverse and encompasses a range of different languages, cultures and religions. There is a transient population within the area which includes two Mother and Baby Units that take parents from outside of Sheffield and two Women’s Refuges. The area also houses the largest asylum seeking population in Sheffield. The area is a ‘New Deal For Communities’ area and is therefore seeing much regeneration. There are many new projects and schemes springing up, all seeking to recruit new workers and involve local people. The area suffers from poor media coverage due to gun crime and a drugs culture. The area has a negative image and services are struggling to recruit to the area. Since 2002 Burngreave and Firvale Sure Start programme has never been fully staffed and we have had to have agency staff for a number of services. Other services such as health services and New Deal are struggling to recruit to the area. The area is seen as a difficult area to work.. Burngreave and Firvale Sure Start programme is the largest in Sheffield being approved with 1049 under 4’s at the time - numbers are presently 1150. Although it is the largest programme in the city, Burngreave and Firvale Sure Start does not have the largest revenue budget or get the same amount of funding per child as other Sure Start programmes in the city.

  • Hillsborough Hall & Hillsborough Park

    Hillsborough Hall & Hillsborough Park

    HILLSBOROUGH HALL & HILLSBOROUGH PARK The Steades Thomas Steade was the builder of Hillsborough Hall. He was the son of Nicholas Steade and Anne Micklethwaite and was born on 16 March 1728 at Ecclesfield. He married Millicent (Meliscent) Pegge, who was the daughter of Strelley Pegge of Beauchief and Mary Broughton from Lowdham, on 30 April 1768. He was a magistrate and he died in 1793. Hillsborough House was built in 1779 as a dwelling for Thomas and his wife Meliscent who had been living in nearby Burrowlee House, which is situated just 250 metres to the east. The Steades were a family of local of landowners whose history went back to the 14th century. At the time of construction the house stood in rural countryside well outside the Sheffield boundary. Steade named his new residence in honour of Wills Hill who at the time was known as the Earl of Hillsborough (later Lord Downside of Hillsborough, County Down), an eminent politician of the period and a patron of the Steades. Steade acquired more land and the grounds eventually had an area of 103 acres (0.42 km2). They were much more extensive than the present Hillsborough Park, stretching north to the current junction of Leppings Lane and Penistone Road and included the site on which Hillsborough Stadium now stands. It extended further south encompassing the site now occupied by the Hillsborough arena. The grounds had areas given over to agriculture but there was also extensive parkland featuring a lake, two lodges and a tree lined avenue. There was also a walled garden, which still exists today, which provided fresh produce for the house’s kitchens.
