    Liberal Democrat Boundary Review Submission Gloucester City Council - Sept 2014 Introduction This submission outlines the proposal for new ward boundaries for Gloucester City Council. There will be nineteen wards of various sizes. Across the city, there will be thirty nine councillors. There are 12 wards with two councillors, 4 wards with three councillors and 3 wards with one councillor. All wards are within the maximum variation of 10% based on the 2020 figure of 2,584 electors per councillor. The Liberal Democrat group on Gloucester City Council is proposing the new boundaries. All party agreement Eight of the new wards being proposed within this report have unanimous support from members of Gloucester City Council, as agreed at the council meeting on the 25th September. A report from the city council with supporting evidence will be sent to the Boundary Commission separately. The eight wards with all party agreement are as follows 1. Barton & Tredworth – 3 councillors (existing boundaries) 2. Elmbridge – 2 councillors 3. Kingsholm & Wotton – 2 councillors 4. Kingsway – 2 councillors 5. Longlevens – 3 councillors (existing boundaries) 6. Quedgeley Fieldcourt – 2 councillors 7. Quedgeley Severn Vale – 2 councillors 8. Tuffley – 2 councillors (existing boundaries) No change in boundaries We are proposing that there is no change to two wards, where we don’t have all party agreement. 1. Moreland – 3 councillors (existing boundaries) 2. Podsmead – 1 councillor (existing boundaries) Wards on new boundaries We are proposing nine wards with new boundaries. Some of these proposals will be the same as that being suggested by one of the other two groups on the council.

  • The Waterfront Gloucester Quays, Gloucester
    The Waterfront Gloucester Quays, Gloucester Computer generated image - for illustration purposes only Welcome to The Waterfront Gloucester’s dockside has undergone a dramatic transformation. The beautiful Victorian architecture remains, which is now joined by modern counterparts. Where ships once discharged cargo, smart narrow boats, cruisers and yachts drift by. What had become a forgotten area is now the place to go – the place to put down roots and live a glorious life by the water. Why choose Shared Ownership? • You’ll need a smaller deposit and mortgage than if you bought a property outright. • Generally you are able to buy a bigger property than you may otherwise be able to afford. • You are able to buy more shares until you own the property outright. • Your monthly payments could be less than renting privately. Artist impression of Broughton Gardens the actual spec may vary Soak up the good life The Waterfront is a stylish collection of new apartments at Gloucester Quays next to the striking historic docks. We’re developing it with Crest Nicholson and it will include 118 homes including 1 & 2 bedroom apartments and 2 & 3 bedroom Be where you love houses for sale through Shared Ownership. It’s Not only are the Quays a great place Thanks to excellent travel links, to live, Gloucester itself and the wider it’s easy to make the most of life at an affordable way to buy area have so much to offer.

OF APPENDICES/ : SITE LOCATION PLAN OBJECTIONS 6 LETTERS OF REPRESENTATION 1.0 SITE DESCRIPTION AND PROPOSAL 1.1 The principal part of the application site is set back some 50 metres from Tuffley Avenue, on the southern side of the highway, and vehicular access to the site is currently obtained via an existing road from Tuffley Avenue, adjacent to no. 110 Tuffley Avenue. The full extent of the western side boundary of the application site lies adjacent to Tuffley Park, and the rear boundary of the application site backs onto the existing bowling green.

The applicant has confirmed that the proposed use of the existing garage and the proposed single storey building, for the servicing and storage of plant and equipment to be used by the City Council Countryside Unit, would be in addition to its current use, and therefore the remainder of the site would remain unchanged.

Foreword I am delighted to be able to introduce Gloucester’s Open Space Strategy, which will cover the period 2021 to 2026. From sports fields and playgrounds to formally managed parks and natural landscapes, the city of Gloucester boasts a rich diversity of publicly accessible open spaces. Gloucester’s open spaces provide residents and visitors with opportunities for formal and informal recreation, and daily contact with nature. Open spaces provide venues for sports, social events, entertainment, relaxation and celebration. Our open spaces are democratic places where people from our City’s many diverse communities can come together to rest and play. Open spaces also form part of a vital biodiversity network, providing habitat for wildlife and bringing the countryside into the heart of the city.

  • Gloucester City Council Project Proposal: Gloucester Riverside Meadows – Access for All (Part 1)
    Gloucester City Council project proposal: Gloucester Riverside Meadows – Access for All (Part 1) Gloucester City Council owns and manages over 80 hectares of open space on the banks of the River Severn, including Alney Island local nature reserve and Westgate Park. Other parts of the riverside meadows are managed by the Canal and River Trust and the Herefordshire and Gloucestershire Canal Trust. For centuries the area was the lowest crossing point to Wales and hence is steeped in history. This includes a fine industrial heritage, being home to bridges designed and built by two of the most famous Victorian engineers – Telford and Brunel. The area is also famous for the Severn Bore. At Alney it reaches its peak; bringing in tourists from around the globe Photo: R. Lawrence to view this spectacular natural Alney Island – River Severn, the Lower Parting phenomenon. And yet all of this is right on the doorstep of Gloucester city centre - less than 500 metres from The Cross and within walking distance of many residents and businesses. The Riverside Meadows are already part of a wide footpath and cycle way network linking Gloucester to the wider countryside. Sustrans National Cycle Network Routes 42 and 45 head out to the north and west through Alney Island, linking the city to Highnam, Maisemore, Tewkesbury, the Forest of Dean and beyond, on quiet roads or traffic free segregated cycle paths. Route 41 goes south from The Docks for another 53 miles to the centre of Bristol. Similarly, no less than four long-distance footpath routes pass through the meadows.
