  • PC Version MORETON BOBBINGWORTH LAVERS
    COMMUNITY GOVERNANCE – MORETON, BOBBINGWORTH AND THE LAVERS PARISH COUNCIL (MBL) SECOND STAGE CONSULTATION APPENDIX 2 Background 1. All households in the Parish Wards of High Laver, Magdalen Laver and Little Laver were consulted last year regarding the proposal to combine the three Lavers parish wards into one new parish ward within MBL. 2. Residents were asked to indicate whether they supported this change which would: (a) align the electorate/Councillor ratios in the Lavers wards more closely with the other wards in MBL and thereby achieve better equality of representation; and (b) reduce election costs as the three parish wards elections would be cheaper than the present five. Results of Consultation 3. Of 285 Households (166 High Laver, 32 Little Laver 87 Magdalen Laver) 102 residents responded to the Council’s Consultation. Of those responses, 86 supported the reduction in the number of wards and 16 did not. 4. The District Council has reviewed this result and considers that there is substantial support for the change and will now take this forward as a firm proposal. A map … showing the new wards is attached as Appendix 1. 5. Some residents As part of this consultation 20 of the Householders of in the Matching Green part of MBL Parish raised the boundary between MBL Parish and the neighbouring Parish Council of Matching in their responses. They drew attention to the way in which the boundary divides the village in two and sought a change whereby the whole of the village could be included in Matching Parish Council. 6. Aside from the boundary itself, those residents raised the following issues in support of changing the boundary: (a) there is an obvious community of interest between Matching Green residents on both sides of the boundary; (b) that Matching Green is at the edge of MBL Parish and therefore have limited community of interest with the rest of that Parish.

    NRA Thames 252 RIVER STORT DRAFT CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN FLOOD DEFENCE AND THE ENVIRONMENT May 1991 NRA National Rii'ers Authority Thames Region U lJ \ T lW ltS RIVER STORT DRAFT CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR FLOOD DEFENCE AND THE ENVIRONMENT MAY 1991 prepared by The National Rivers Authority Thames Region with the assistance of Land Use Consultants Flynn and Kothweii Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust Essex Wildlife Trust Lee Donaldson Associates ENVIRONMENT AGENCY 123198 A VISION FOR THE RIVER STORT CATCHMENT The river corridors of ihe Stort Catchment are a valuable natural resource, comprising sensitive ecological habitats, a landscape of considerable diversity and value, and areas which are popular for informal recreation. The Stort Navigation is of particular historical significance and its characteristics make it unique in the Thames Region. The objective of the NRA TR is to conserve and, wherever possible, enhance the value of this resource. This will be achieved through appropriate direct management of the water environment, including the provision of appropriate standards of urban flood protection, and partnership with the riparian local authorities, British Waterways Board and other interested organisations. A central part of this objective is to secure the designation of the corridor of the Lower Stort Valley and the Stort Navigation as a ’Special Heritage Area* in the statutory development plans. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Aim of the Catchment Management Plan Under the 1989 Water Act the National Rivers Authority (NRA) is required to conserve and enhance the water environment. Such an important role requires a multi-disciplinary approach; catchment management planning seeks to provide a multi-disciplinary strategy for each catchment.

  • Great Hallingbury Parish Council Response to the NATS Stansted
    GREAT HALLINGBURY PARISH COUNCIL IN THE COUNTY OF ESSEX MRS F.M.R. TOWNSEND 7 THE GROVE CLERK OF THE COUNCIL GREAT HALLINGBURY BISHOP’S STORTFORD TEL: 01279 465790 HERTS. CM22 7TT. e.mail: [email protected] Stansted SID Airspace Consultation, Box 25A, 4000 Parkway, PO15 7FL. 26th August 2014 NATS Departure Route Proposal at London Stansted Airport. Proposal to change existing departure routes from Stansted, heading east, from the Dover SID to the Clacton SID. The documents provided by NATS on this consultation show flight paths but no indication of noise levels. Great Hallingbury is the nearest village affected by aircraft departing from Runway 22 and we therefore accept that noise levels here will be higher than other villages along the flight path. Back in June 2001 when it was proposed that the turn point should be changed from 1.5m to 1.0m, there was much debate among the villages of Hatfield Broad Oak, Hatfield Heath, Little Hallingbury and Great Hallingbury. Great Hallingbury Parish Council made the decision to agree to the change for the good of our neighbouring villages, even though it meant more noise over our own village. This declaration was made through the Uttlesford Association of Local Councils, and on conditional assurance from Stansted Airport Limited that every endeavour would be made to centralise aircraft along the NPR line. Since that time there has been a massive increase in air traffic. The centre of the NPR on both Clacton and Dover routes varies little actually over Great Hallingbury, however the problem is that aircraft on the Clacton route invariably turn early and fly to the east of the NPR flying directly over houses in our village.
