Park Area Annual Report 2017-18 Park Area Annual Report 2017-18 Area and Neighbourhood Management in the Park Area The Park Area Team works on behalf of the Area Committee to provide excellent and accountable services which help address local priorities and contribute to achieving the City’s aspirations by: Improving residents’ quality of life across a range of issues Supporting ward councillors in carrying out their area and community leadership roles Listening to our communities and involving them in designing the services they want Supporting the delivery of effective front-line services, that meet the needs of local residents Helping communities to develop a healthy, safe, green and sustainable environment for current and future generations. A key element of the Area Team’s work is to identify all opportunities for residents, businesses and visitors to the Park Area to contribute to and benefit from the City Plan, in particular: Making Hull a World Class Visitor destination – developing project and promoting links with the Area’s heritage, culture and sporting activities Prevention and Early Intervention – supporting residents to play a fuller and more rewarding role in their local community and the life of the City Tackling Health Inequalities – maximising opportunities for residents to participate in healthy living projects in their neighbourhoods. Projects which support residents in maintaining independent living and promoting active lifestyles. Area Priorities During the past year we have engaged with residents of the Area in many different ways to identify priorities and help deliver improvements. We used information from statistical data such as demographic information, Area engagement events, customer feedback surveys, ward forums, service requests and intelligence from our partners to identify the things that you wanted addressing across the Area. We have sought to reflect the different character of each ward in balancing activity across the priorities, to ensure that each wards’ needs are met. We have kept you informed about what we are doing through publishing ward plans, providing monthly update reports to the Area Committee and regular communication through our community notice boards, web page, Twitter and Facebook.

  • Hull City Council Hackney Carriage Unmet Demand Survey August 2018
    Hull City Council Hackney carriage unmet demand survey August 2018 Hackney carriage unmet demand survey i Executive Summary This Hackney carriage unmet demand survey has been undertaken on behalf of Hull City Council following the guidance of the April 2010 DfT Best Practice Guidance document, and all relevant case history in regard to unmet demand. This Executive Summary draws together key points from the main report that are needed to allow a committee to determine from the facts presented their current position in regard to the policy of limiting hackney carriage vehicle licences according to Section 16 of the 1985 Transport Act. It is a summary of the main report which follows and should not be relied upon solely to justify any decisions of a committee, but must be read in conjunction with the full report below. A wide range of information was gathered during the period between March and August 2018 and drawn together to identify any latent or patent unmet demand across the City, and to conclude if this observed unmet demand was significant or not. There has been significant change in the licensed vehicle situation in Hull since 2015. Ranks have been altered, removed and added, with changes in club provision having associated rank changes. Highway revisions have affected the key central ranks, with one removed, another moved, and the third having its access amended significantly. Since the last survey, the City of Culture celebrations have concluded, a time when the licensed vehicle service provided excellent service to locals and visitors alike. Refreshed representation of the hackney carriage trade has led to a review of operating practices with a refocus on serving ranks, and particularly on servicing them late at night.

  • C TAH Records of the City Architect's Department C.1880-1984 Housing
    Hull History Centre: Records of the City Architect’s Department – Housing Section C TAH Records of the City Architect’s Department c.1880-1984 Housing Section Historical Background The Borough of Kingston upon Hull was reformed under the 1835 Municipal Corporations Act. In 1876 the borough was merged with the Kingston upon Hull Board of Health, assuming that body's responsibilities for sanitation, street lighting, paving and cleansing, parks and open spaces, and building control. Under the Boundaries Extension Act of 1882 (45 & 46 Victoria) the area covered by the Newington Board of Health was also brought within the borough. Kingston upon Hull was created a City by Charter of Queen Victoria, 6 July 1897. The responsibilities of the City were extended by the Education Act of 1902, which transferred the activities of the local School Boards to the corporation. Responsibility for education lasted until 1974. Under the 1929 Local Government Act, the City also became responsible for public assistance, until this was abolished in 1948. The 1939-45 War also resulted in the City council acquiring additional responsibilities. The 1972 Local Government Act created the County of Humberside and Kingston upon Hull ceased to be a county, becoming a second tier authority as a borough from 1 April 1974. It was restored to the title of City in 1975. The Humberside (Structural Change) Order 1995, operative under the Local Government Act 1992, abolished the County of Humberside and created a county of the City of Kingston upon Hull, effective as a unitary authority from 1 April 1996. The City Architect's Department was responsible for the design and planning for many of the buildings falling under the purview of the City of Hull, along with the selection of building contractors and the administration of the construction process.
