West Sussex County Council Attachments: UA Report Appendix 2 Consultation Response.Docx Kingsley, Paul From: Charles Gauntlett > Sent: 10 March 2016 14:04 To: Philip Coleman Cc: reviews Subject: Chichester District Council Boundary Review - Comments from West Sussex County Council Attachments: UA report appendix 2 consultation response.docx Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Completed Dear Philip, The County Council has considered Chichester District Council’s work on its electoral boundary review. It has focussed on Chichester District Council’s proposed scheme and has answered the questions in the consultation document. The County Council also makes a general comment about how it hopes that the Commission may adopt whole county reviews in future, if the pilot in East Sussex is successful, to give more chance of having better levels of co-terminosity between a county and districts.

Question 1: We agree that Shopwhyke Lakes should be included in Oving ward. Question 2: We agree that Chichester City should be dealt with as a separate unit and that district ward boundaries should not cross the city boundary. Question 3: Our preference is for option 2, with a single-member ward for Sidlesham (comprising the village and the northern edge of Selsey) and a three- member ward for the core community of Selsey. The proposed County Council division puts Sidlesham in with the Witterings, so it will be better for a single member Sidlesham district ward to be 100% within the County Wtterings division. Question 5: On balance, our preference is for option 2. We acknowledge that whilst the western end of East Wittering/Bracklesham Bay is within West Wittering Parish, residents are oriented to the community facilities of East Wittering. Question 6: No view Question 7: In general, we have a preference for single member wards; however we recognise in this case that owing to the variance a two-member ward is preferable. Question 8: In our view, either option is preferable to a ward that is over 15% above the norm. On balance, our preference is for option 1, as this would keep the defined community of Fishbourne intact. Question 9: our preference is for Westbourne as the ward name. Question 10: We suggest ‘Goodwood’ as a more appropriate alternative ward name. the Goodwood estate is right across this ward and is preferable to a village at one end of the proposed ward. Question 11: In our view the community connections for residents of Elsted & Treyford and Trotton with Chithurst lie to the west. Question 12: No view Question 13: In our view, Heyshott should be included in the Easebourne Ward as it is a largely rural settlement and also as Midhurst will continue to experience considerable development pressure. This would provide better co-terminosity with the County Division. General Comments: We note with concern the proliferation of wards spanning county division boundaries. A greater number of district wards than we are comfortable with will have their territory divided between two county councillors. We recognise that this is in part inevitable given the 25% reduction in the number of district councillors; however we strongly feel that a simultaneous, whole-county review would have produced a more sympathetic result, to the benefit of all our residents. This is particularly the case given that the County Council is currently in the later stages of its own review and Horsham and Crawley are also scheduled for review in the near future. We are aware that a pilot whole-county review of both districts wards and county divisions is currently underway in East Sussex and, pending successful completion, we hope that this will be adopted as standard practice in future. .

  • SC1: South Coast Shoreline
    Overall Character THE WEST SUSSEX LANDSCAPE Land Management Guidelines This long narrow Character Area extends between West Wittering and Shoreham and comprises the majority of the West Sussex coastline. It is a distinctive low, open and exposed landscape which has an overriding visual and physical association with the sea. Its wide and gently curved bays are further defined by the protruding shingle headland of Selsey Bill, and the chalk headland of Beachy Head in neighbouring East Sussex. This is a dynamic character area whose key characteristics are linked by coastal evolution, weather and tides. Sheet SC1 The character varies considerably according to weather condition and seasons. Key Characteristics G Relatively narrow undeveloped sections of coastline behind beaches. Bounded by low South Coast growing scant vegetation and small areas of wind-sculpted scrub and trees.

  • [2020] ECC Chi 1 13 February 2020
    Neutral Citation Number: [2020] ECC Chi 1 13 February 2020 In the Consistory Court of the Diocese of Chichester No 1120 In the matter of St Mary, Chithurst And in the matter of the petition of (1) Neil Ryder and (2) Darren Stiles on behalf of Trotton with Chithurst Parish Council Judgment 1. This is at heart a straightforward petition: some may consider it trivial. It concerns a proposal to fell an ash tree. However experience suggests that such proposals can generate strong local feeling as was the case following the delivery of the Court’s judgment in Re St Peter, West Blatchington [2019] ECC Chi 4, which attracted some attention in the local and national press. 2. The petition is dated 26 January 2020 and was received in the registry on 28 January 2020. The petitioners are (1) Mr Neil Ryder and (2) Mr Darren Stiles, who are, respectively the clerk to, and chairman of, Trotton with Chithurst Parish Council. It appears to be common ground that the churchyard of St Mary’s church, Chithurst was closed by Order in Council on 8 August 1901 and that responsibility for its care and maintenance was subsequently passed by the Parochial Church Council (ecclesiastical) to the Parish Council (civil) pursuant to the statutory forerunner of section 215 of the Local Government Act 1972. I have been provided with a copy of the Order in Council but not of the notice of transfer but there seems to be no dispute as to its existence and effect. 3. The first petitioner has raised a number of matters in his written representations to the Court which have required a lengthier judgment than might otherwise have been the case.

  • Trotton with Chithurst Parish Council to the LGCBE Draft Recommendations for Chichester District
    “Steps”, Trotton, Nr Petersfield, West Sussex, GU31 5JS Response by Trotton with Chithurst Parish Council to the LGCBE Draft Recommendations for Chichester District Trotton with Chithurst Parish Council considered the draft recommendations at a meeting held on Wednesday 14th. September 2016. We are delighted that the proposal to move Trotton from Harting ward was rejected. However, we continue to have grave concerns regarding the proposal to move Elsted and Treyford Parish from Harting ward to Midhurst ward. Our response to the initial consultation included four points relating directly to Elsted parish, and we would repeat and strengthen these here: 1. Trotton no longer has a school, shop, village green, sports ground, village hall or public house and must rely on its neighbours' facilities. Our population centre (albeit a small one) is situated to the south of our parish, about a mile from the public house at Lower Elsted, which hosts events for Trotton residents each month. The Village hall and sports ground at Elsted give a good view across Trotton and are often used by Trotton residents. Trotton and Elsted Parishes are similar in size and nature and the two Parish councils have recently been exploring options for closer working, including the potential for a Common Parish Council. We have strong links to Elsted, which in turn has strong links with Harting Parish. 2. Like our neighbours in Elsted parish, Trotton also has strong links to its larger neighbour Rogate as the two parishes share a Rector across the four churches which make up the United Benefice. Given the small size and sparse facilities of our parish, we also value our links with Rogate for its school and for allowing us to combine with them for celebrations such as the recent Queen’s birthday.
