Local Government Boundary Commission - Review of Cambridgeshire County Council
Local Government Boundary Commission - Review of Cambridgeshire County Council East Cambridgeshire - Conservative Party Response from South East Cambridgeshire Conservative Association (SECCA) Summary 1. We believe that single Member Divisions provide for the most effective local government in East Cambridgeshire, giving greater clarity to the electorate and to City, Town and Parish Councils and other local organisations. 2. Our preferred scenario (scenario 1) is based on 63 Members, meaning that 9 will be in East Cambridgeshire. This proposed scenario allows for provision of single Member Divisions, achieves good electoral equality, provides for convenient and effective local government and offers the best solution, by some margin, in terms of reflecting community interests and identity. 2.1. We strongly believe that the Boundary Commission’s proposal for two 2 Member Divisions (within the 61 Member scenario) has made serious compromises to both community interests and identity and to convenient and effective local government, markedly so for the proposed Littleport West Division (Division 16). The geographical size and marked difference in service needs of different parts of this Division could cause conflict in Members’ ability to represent the whole of the Division effectively. 2.2. Sutton, and particularly the villages to the south of Sutton (Wentworth, Witchford, Haddenham, Aldreth, Wilburton, Stretham and Little Thetford) are totally remote from Littleport - geographically (residents of those areas look to Ely and Cambridge and do not use or travel to Littleport), culturally (residents of those areas do not link themselves in any way to Littleport), demographically and in terms of service need (educational, economic and health and wellbeing needs are markedly different).

Reflections on Eight Decades of Looking Back on Cambridgeshire History a Talk to Soham Old Grammarians, 3Rd October 2015 by Mike Petty MBE SG57
Soham Grammarians - 2015 Luncheon Talk Reflections on eight decades of looking back on Cambridgeshire history A talk to Soham Old Grammarians, 3rd October 2015 by Mike Petty MBE SG57 Mike Petty This is not the first time I’ve spoken from this stage to this august gathering. The first was something over 50 years ago – part of a surprise 6th Form Revue updating you on what the school was really like. Perhaps some of you were there. And that was not the first – that seems to have been in 1958 in King Melon and Princess Caraway – dressed up in a frock. At least this does not name other members of the cast. click here for cast list Looking back with rose-tinted (bloodshot) eyes I recall writing my memories of my first day at Soham Grammer School. I wrote of the view of that grand house as we approached form the bus. The essay came back covered in red ink corrections. Apparently it was a Grammar, not Grammer, school. But at least it showed somebody had read it However the real first memory is of walking through Conservatory – it would be demolished very soon after - and under that arched walkway to the dining hall. There RAT and Sid (then Mr Peter Taylor and Mr Sidney Saunders) read out the names of those allocated to 1S and 1T. Archer, Ashwood, Bashfield, Butcher … but no ‘Petty’. It taught me a valuable lesson. Later I was allocated to the practical side – woodwork (I made a tray, others made tables), Technical Drawing – I got two marks (out of 100) – ‘He did very little, but put his name on the paper neatly’.

A Market Town Plan for Soham
Appendix 2 A Market Town Plan for Soham 1 Contents About this document 3 Introduction 4 A vision for Soham 5 A repurposed, resilient town centre 12 Transport – driven regeneration 16 The heart of Cambridgeshire’s AgriTech industry 20 A new leisure and culture offer 23 Implementation plan 24 2 About this document This document has been commissioned by the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority (CPCA) working in partnership with East Cambridgeshire District Council. The devolution deal which created the Combined Authority recognises the important role of market town economies in growing the wider Cambridgeshire and Peterborough economy. A masterplan for each of the eleven market towns across the region provides the opportunity to look at the unique features of each town, and offers deliverables which will benefit the immediate and wider economy. We don’t expect everything in this document to be funded immediately. There are some quick wins where an injection of funding can get things moving. For other projects, we will need to spend time developing detailed plans and compelling investment cases before we can begin to leverage in funding. While the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority (CPCA) has funded this report, and is keen to invest in our town, we know we will need to build a coalition of supporters, including central government, to get some of the schemes detailed here delivered. As part of this dialogue with central government, this document integrates a recovery plan from the economic consequences of Covid-19. We have identified positive responses to the global economic shock, which, with government support, will ensure a relaunch of our local economy, ensuring that our town comes out of the current crisis stronger than it was before.
