  • Waverley Borough Council Draft Air Quality Action Plan
    Waverley Borough Council Air Quality Action Plan July 2008 Final version Anne Sayer Environmental Health Email: [email protected] Tel: 01483 523117 Council Offices The Burys Godalming Surrey GU7 1HR 1 Contents Foreword……………………………………………. 3 Executive Summary………………………………... 4 Introduction and goals of the Action Plan………... 5 1. The Air Quality Challenges Facing Waverley… 7 2. Waverley‟s Air Quality Management Areas…… 8 3. Description of proposed measures…………… 12 ANNEXES Extracts from Farnham Review of Movement Studies and Major Schemes by Scott Wilson for Surrey County Council Consultation response from Surrey County Council 2 Foreword The air we breathe is essential for life – yet we often take it for granted. A person needs to breathe in about 25kgs of air a day to get all the oxygen they need to live – many times more than the weight of food or water needed. Consumers can make choices about whether to drink bottled water or eat organic food. But when the air around us becomes polluted it has the potential to affect everyone. Equally, the key to air pollution prevention is in everyone‟s hands. Waverley Borough Council is required to produce this Action Plan to demonstrate how air pollution in its three Air Quality Management Areas (AQMAs) is being tackled. But rather than simply focus on tackling the issues identified in these three areas the document seeks to take a broader approach – raising the awareness of air quality throughout the Borough of Waverley. 3 Executive summary Waverley Borough Council has produced this Air Quality Action Plan as part of its duty under the Environment Act 1995.

  • The Planning Group
    THE PLANNING GROUP Report on the letters the group has written to Guildford Borough Council about planning applications which we considered during the period 1 January to 30 June 2020 During this period the Planning Group consisted of Alistair Smith, John Baylis, Amanda Mullarkey, John Harrison, David Ogilvie, Peter Coleman and John Wood. In addition Ian Macpherson has been invaluable as a corresponding member. Abbreviations: AONB: Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty AGLV: Area of Great Landscape Value GBC: Guildford Borough Council HTAG: Holy Trinity Amenity Group LBC: Listed Building Consent NPPF: National Planning Policy Framework SANG: Suitable Alternative Natural Greenspace SPG: Supplementary Planning Guidance In view of the Covid 19 pandemic the Planning Group has not been able to meet every three weeks at the GBC offices. We have, therefore, been conducting meetings on Zoom which means the time taken to consider each of the applications we have looked at has increased. In addition, this six month period under review has been the busiest for the group for four years and thus the workload has inevitably increased significantly. During the period there were a potential 993 planning applications we could have looked at. We sifted through these applications and considered in detail 89 of them. The Group wrote 41 letters to the Head of Planning Services on a wide range of individual planning applications. Of those applications 13 were approved as submitted; 8 were approved after amending plans were received and those plans usually took our concerns into account; 5 were withdrawn; 10 were refused; and, at the time of writing, 5 applications had not been decided.

  • November 2019 Village Website
    Results 5. ,The C NEWS Number 355 – November 2019 Village Website: www.compton-surrey.co.uk PUBLISHED BY COMPTON VILLAGE ASSOCIATION Editor: Jane Turner, Inwood House, Hog’s Back, Farnham, Surrey GU10 1HE Telephone: 01483 810789. 07763 146448. Email: [email protected] PARISH COUNCIL COMPTON PARISH COUNCIL IN THE HIGH COURT. Earlier this year, immediately before the local elections, Guildford Borough Council adopted a new Local Plan, setting out its aspirations for housing, development and other areas of local government. This plan included a proposal to build 1,800 homes on the Blackwell Farm site, much of which lies within Compton Parish and all of which is within the Metropolitan Green Belt. Compton Parish Council, after consulting through public meetings, resolved to challenge this Plan, the basis for the housing numbers, the way the inspector conducted the hearings and the manner in which it was adopted by GBC. Our advice was that the dwelling numbers (at 37% above the Council's own objective assessment of housing need) could not be justified, and the extra road traffic generated would be enormously harmful to Compton village. Our challenge, together with the challenges from two other parties, will be heard at the Law Courts in the Strand, London on Tuesday 5th, Wednesday 6th & Thursday 7th November, as a Section 113 Challenge. The hearing will be open to the public from 10.30am to 4.30pm. You are very welcome to attend and support our legal team. Mobile phones are permitted in the courtroom but you are warned that if they go off, you are liable to be in Contempt of Court so it is important to keep all devices on silent! BE ALERT! Following a recent burglary near Spiceall, it has become apparent that the perpetrators were watching the property from a car parked close by for some time before they broke in.

  • Dear Members of GCCA the Summer Term Has
    Dear Members of GCCA The summer term has begun and with it comes my apologies for the distinct lack of a newsletter last term – however, things have been a little busy, as you will see. The Cathedral Choir had a fabulous Lent term – highlights included the liturgies of Epiphany-tide Procession, Candlemas, a visit to Croydon Minster for our girl choristers where they sang Evensong jointly with the girl choristers and adults of Croydon Minster Choir, Ash Wednesday, a fundraising concert for their tour fund by the girl choristers at St. Nicolas’ Church, Guildford, the girl choristers’ residential weekend at St. Catherine’s School, Bramley, complete with concert, the services of Holy Week and Easter and a five day choir tour to Sanlúcar la Mayor, Cordoba and Sevilla, Spain. As this term begins, twelve of our choristers have just taken part in the English Touring Opera Production of Tosca at G-Live on 2 May, and I have just returned from giving the opening organ recital in the tenth international organ festival in Palma, Mallorca. For me, a personal highlight of last term was the news that I have been accorded the honour of being made a Fellow of the Royal School of Church Music, and this will be presented to me later this calendar year. I hope you enjoy this edition of the newsletter and look forward to seeing you at any of our regular services. Choral Evensong is sung daily (except during choir holidays) on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays at 5.30 p.m. and on Sundays at 6.00 p.m.

It also includes one parish in a London borough and one in rural West Sussex. In the northeast, it is largely suburban, but moving south and west, there are a number of distinct towns and numerous villages. This part of the diocese has a rural feel, but good road and rail links to London and elsewhere mean that there is much commuting within these areas. The population is just over a million, rising in line with the national rate. Notwithstanding the rural areas, the average population density is above average, both regionally and nationally. The area is rightly perceived as affluent, but there are other perspectives. There are surprisingly high levels of domestic and sexual abuse. The population is quite mobile, but the cost of housing is very high and there are issues of homelessness in the towns.
