Calderdale Votes CALDERDALE VOTES 40 years of local democracy Calderdale Metropolitan Borough Council was ‘born’ on 1st April 1974 by amalgamating the county borough of Halifax, the boroughs of Brighouse & Todmorden, the urban districts of Elland, Hebden Royd, Ripponden, Sowerby Bridge & part of Queensbury and Shelf and the rural district of Hepton. The first elections to the council were held on Thursday 10th May 1973 (the shadow authority) and to celebrate 40 years of local democracy this statistical digest has been compiled. Notes Results – given by year, votes and percentage share (for the highest polling candidates in multiple contests). Female candidates are designated by the title ‘Ms’ for simplicity. Turnout figures not provided for individual wards because of too many discrepancies. Despite my very best efforts a name may have been misspelt and I apologise if this is the case. The results have been sourced from local newspapers and libraries. A * before a candidate’s name highlights that they are an incumbent councillor for the ward. A + before a candidate’s name highlights that they are an incumbent councillor but have chosen to seek re-election in another ward. No incumbents in 1973 because inaugural election or 2004 ‘all out’ election because of boundary changes. By-Elections – I have noted the retiring councillor (either resignation, death or extended absence). Cycle of Election – Each column should be read downwards. Normally each councillor serves a four year term but it is possible for an incumbent councillor to move to a different cycle e.g. when they seek re-election and are placed 2nd in a double vacancy. In 1973 the top three candidates were elected in each ward. The highest polling serving until 1978, the second highest polling until 1976 and the third highest polling until 1975. In 2004 the top three candidates were elected in each ward. The highest polling serving until 2008, the second highest polling until 2007 and the third highest polling until 2006. If a councillors switches allegiances this is noted in brackets. Table of Majorities – Majority is the guidepost in our plurality electoral system and I have ordered the majorities by year in vote (not percentage) order. The second place party is given in brackets except for CON/LAB and Lab/CON battles. In 1973 and 2004 when ‘all out’ elections were held I have listed the margin between the 3rd and 4th placed candidates. This may occasionally provide an anomalous result when both candidates share the same party colours so please treat with caution. Summaries –including wards changing hands, new council composition, party vote share plus overall turnout percentage. WYMCC – the results for the Calderdale divisions to the West Yorkshire Metropolitan County Council.

  • Wakefield, West Riding: the Economy of a Yorkshire Manor
    WAKEFIELD, WEST RIDING: THE ECONOMY OF A YORKSHIRE MANOR By BRUCE A. PAVEY Bachelor of Arts Oklahoma State University Stillwater, Oklahoma 1991 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 1993 OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY WAKEFIELD, WEST RIDING: THE ECONOMY OF A YORKSHIRE MANOR Thesis Approved: ~ ThesiSAd er £~ A J?t~ -Dean of the Graduate College ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am deeply indebted to to the faculty and staff of the Department of History, and especially the members of my advisory committee for the generous sharing of their time and knowledge during my stay at O.S.U. I must thank Dr. Alain Saint-Saens for his generous encouragement and advice concerning not only graduate work but the historian's profession in general; also Dr. Joseph Byrnes for so kindly serving on my committee at such short notice. To Dr. Ron Petrin I extend my heartfelt appreciation for his unflagging concern for my academic progress; our relationship has been especially rewarding on both an academic and personal level. In particular I would like to thank my friend and mentor, Dr. Paul Bischoff who has guided my explorations of the medieval world and its denizens. His dogged--and occasionally successful--efforts to develop my skills are directly responsible for whatever small progress I may have made as an historian. To my friends and fellow teaching assistants I extend warmest thanks for making the past two years so enjoyable. For the many hours of comradeship and mutual sympathy over the trials and tribulations of life as a teaching assistant I thank Wendy Gunderson, Sandy Unruh, Deidre Myers, Russ Overton, Peter Kraemer, and Kelly McDaniels.

  • Groundswell Community Based Groundwater Monitoring Network
    4/8/2017 Groundswell Community Based Groundwater Monitoring Network By: Jenna Jones and Makayla Jamieson SR. ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY STUDENTS, NSCC WATERFRONT CAMPUS Jenna Jones, Makayla Jamieson NSCC ENTG Students 401-17 Portland Street, Dartmouth, NS B2Y 1H1 (778)-918-2824, (902)-483-4625 September 13, 2016 NSCC, Waterfront Campus 80 Mawiomi Place Dartmouth, NS B2Y 0A5 Faculty of the Environmental Engineering Program: Groundwater is a very sensitive part of the hydrologic cycle, particularly in Nova Scotia. Currently in Nova Scotia, information and analysis on ground water is remarkably limited. This information is vital when considering the population that is dependent on groundwater. Currently one program dedicated to the monitoring of groundwater is the Groundswell program, run by the Ecology Action Center. By partnering with the EAC to work on Groundswell, we will uncover more information on HRM’s groundwater. Groundswell is a community based groundwater monitoring network that enables the community to monitor groundwater levels from 8 different wells in the HRM. Data from these wells gets collected by community groups and volunteers, and is then processed. This data can be used to find trends, and used for industrial and domestic development plans. Currently the program has de-escalated; data is not being loaded or processed, wells are not being assessed, and the EAC lacks the man power for these tasks. Larissa Holman, freshwater project coordinator of the EAC has agreed to offer assistance in our study and contribution to the Groundswell program. We met to discuss the program, which involves bringing it back to life, enriching current information, performing well inspections, and adding more QAQC controls to the program.
