  • Environmental Pollution and Decontamination
    Background and Context Following three days of exceptionally heavy rain on already saturated ground, the River Ouse overtopped the flood defences and flooded substantial parts of Lewes. 613 residential and 207 business properties were flooded, along with 16 public buildings. 1000 people were displaced. 503 vehicles were damaged or destroyed and the total cost of the flooding was given as £88 million. How the Topic was Handled A Restoration Sub-Group was appointed, working to the Lewes Flood Recovery Co-ordinating Group . Its Terms of Reference were “ To co- ordinatethe clear-up of the affected areas, including the consideration of long- term health issues .” Represented on the sub-group were: • Lewes District Council (Environmental Health, Housing Maintenance, Building Control, Design & Conservation) • East Sussex County Council (Transport & Environment, Trading Standards) • East Sussex Brighton & Hove Health Authority (Public Health Consultant). This sub-group met five times, under the chairmanship of a senior Environmental Health Officer from Lewes DC, the last time being in May 2001. Key points arising were: • Provision of public health advice, particularly on how to handle cleaning up flooded homes and avoiding contamination. • Flooding of industrial areas released oil and other pollutants. As water receded, oil became concentrated in one watercourse. Environment Agency boomed (contained with bunding) some 70,000 litres of waste and heating oil and removed by tanker. • Flood stirred up dormant soil content from previous industrialisation. • Concern about children and pets playing in contaminated gardens. • Regional epidemiologist commenced survey into health effects in July 2001 using sample of 120 flood-affected households and ‘control’ population of non-flooded households.

  • Eastbourne to Hastings Via Bexhill Walk
    Saturday Walkers Club www.walkingclub.org.uk Eastbourne to Hastings via Bexhill walk Flat coastal walk along the south coast past busy sea front promenades and quiet beaches. Shingle Check the tide times before doing this walk - do the middle section at low tide if possible The middle 2 km section of this walk is along a beach which at mid and high tide is all shingle, which is not fun to walk on. At low tide there is a sandy beach below the shingle which is much more pleasant to walk on. At mid/high tide, you could instead walk along the coast road (no sea view), catch a regular bus or irregular train. Length 24 km/15 miles - shorter options from around 8 km/5 miles Toughness 1 out of 10 (7 out of 10 if walking on shingle) Features This gentle walk follows the 15 miles (24 km) of flat coastline between Eastbourne and Hastings. It is in 3 parts - 2 seafront promenades with a quiet shingle beach in between which is nice to walk on only at low tide when the flat sandy part of the beach is uncovered. If doing the middle section, check tide times so you can walk along sand at low tide, rather than the shingle, which is very heavy going. Although the entire walk is quite long, there are shorter options, as there is a railway line following the coast, with several stations en-route. Eastbourne to Pevensey Bay - seafront promenade Starting in Eastbourne, a faded Edwardian grandeur seaside resort, the walk heads from the station down through a pedestrian shopping street to a very nice seafront esplanade and a Victorian pier (1 km) and a sandy beach.

  • Winter 2020/21 Newsletter
    East Sussex Hearing Winter 2020/21 Newsletter SEASONS GREETINGS! Our lovely new Eastbourne Centre! As winter approaches we are hopeful that the New Year will bring good news for everyone… turn over to find out more about our hopes and plans for 2021 Registered Charity No: 1101140 Hello from your CEO David Rowan Well, what an eventful year it has been. It started off like most New Year’s do, very quiet. Then, in mid-February we started to hear of cases of a new virus in China that was initially thought to be localised and similar to the SARS virus of 2003. It quickly became apparent that this was a completely different virus and far more infectious. Within a matter of weeks, the virus had spread beyond China and we ultimately ended up with the Coronavirus pandemic that has gone on to effect most, if not all countries in the world. We then went into our first 12-week lockdown and our Centre had to close its doors to the public for the very first time. All our outreach activities were cancelled including lipreading and sign language classes, support groups and our hearing aid maintenance service. However, a skeleton staff continued to work from the office providing vital support and information to clients by telephone, text and email. We also started our new “hearing aid batteries by post” service which we have continued to provide ever since, and will carry on doing until a more ‘normal’ life returns. However, this year has not been all doom and gloom. It was towards the end of the first lockdown that we realised we wouldn’t be able to resume our classes and equipment demonstrations from St Leonards Road because of the new covid distancing requirements and so we took the 2 plunge and moved into new, bright, comfortable and spacious premises in Chantry House, just a short walk from St Leonards Road.

  • Duty to Cooperate: Statement of Common Ground Cross-Boundary Working and Meeting Housing Needs
    Duty to cooperate: Statement of common ground Cross-boundary working and meeting housing needs This agreement is between: Lewes District Council South Downs National Park Authority Adur District Council Arun District Council Brighton and Hove City Council Chichester District Council Crawley Borough Council Eastbourne Borough Council Hastings Borough Council Horsham District Council Mid Sussex District Council Rother District Council Wealden District Council Worthing Borough Council Map 1: Lewes district in context 1 1. Background 1.1 Section 110 of the Localism Act 2011 places a legal duty on local planning authorities and other prescribed bodies to cooperate with each other on strategic planning matters insofar as they are relevant to their administrative areas throughout the preparation of their development plan documents. The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) 2012 reiterates this duty and requires an independent inspector to assess whether the development plan they are examining has been prepared in accordance with the duty to cooperate. 1.2 It is expected that engagement and cooperation will be constructive, active and ongoing in order to maximise effectiveness throughout plan preparation as well as implementation, delivery and subsequent review. The national Planning Practice Guidance confirms that this is not a duty to agree but that local planning authorities should make every effort to secure the necessary cooperation on cross-boundary strategic matters before submitting development plan documents for examination. The examination will test whether the duty has been complied with. 2. Purpose 2.1 This statement of common ground sets out how Lewes District Council and South Downs National Park Authority have actively and positively sought to comply with the duty to cooperate in the preparation of the Joint Core Strategy development plan document on strategic planning matters, with the main cross-boundary factor affecting Lewes district being housing provision.

  • Written Evidence Submitted by East Sussex County Council [ASC 021]
    Written evidence submitted by East Sussex County Council [ASC 021] • How has Covid-19 changed the landscape for long-term funding reform of the adult social care sector? The challenges facing the adult social care market prior to the pandemic are well documented and, in many cases, have been brought into sharp focus over the last 12 months. Local Authority published rates; contract arrangements (e.g. block arrangements); commissioning approaches (e.g. strategic partners) and CCG funding agreements including Better Care Fund allocations are all key funding reform considerations which sit alongside the necessity to offer choice, personalised care and high quality, safe services. Residential and nursing care There are 306 registered care homes in East Sussex – the majority are small independently run homes, which don’t have the wrap-around organisational infrastructure enjoyed by larger / national providers. In East Sussex, Local Authority placements are made across around one-third of the residential and nursing care market. At the peak of the second wave over 100 care homes in East Sussex were closed to admissions due to Covid outbreaks. Week commencing 04/01/21 there were 853 confirmed cases of Covid19 in East Sussex care home settings. During 2021, as of the week ending 19/03/2021, East Sussex has had 2,404 deaths registered in total and 1,110 of these have been attributable to COVID-19, of which 597 have occurred in hospital and 436 have occurred in care homes (LG reform data). In the two years up to April 2019, there were 26 residential and nursing home closures in East Sussex resulting in a loss of 435 beds, across all care groups.

  • REP-7214-001 Chris Lewcock Position Statement on Matter 1 (Pdf)
    Statement of Representations by Christopher Peter Lewcock on behalf of the Bulverhythe Protectors I have a Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Urban and Regional Planning, a Diploma in Development Studies and an MPhil in Land Economy. I worked for a total of eleven years in English Local Authority Planning Departments. I have also worked as a lecturer in the Built Environment at the University of Greenwich. The Localism Act 2011 (the Act) imposes on a local planning authority the duty to cooperate. This is explained further in relevant Central Government Guidance published 6 March 2014 (the Guidance 2014). They are required “… to engage constructively, actively and on an ongoing basis…“(the Act) … “to maximise the effectiveness of Local Plan … preparation in the context of strategic cross boundary matters” (the Guidance 2014). The duty to cooperate is imposed on the Council preparing their Plan but is equally true in respect of strategic matters of any neighbouring local planning authority. I would submit that Rother District, due to a lack of constructive engagement by Hastings Borough Council, may be unable to comply with this duty to cooperate. My particular concern is with the handling of the Strategic Gap between Bexhill and Hastings. In its Submission Rother District sets out the extent of cooperation on the Hastings urban fringe (paras 4.56 et seq). “Rother and Hastings Councils put forward a joint approach to development in Hastings and Bexhill to advance their shared future prosperity through the respective Core Strategies. This included the establishment of the Countryside Park as well as mutually agreed transport infrastructure improvements, with the now constructed Link Road as the first priority.

Introduction 1.1 Members will recall considering a report at the October 2017 Authority meeting which summarised the position reached in the review of the local planning policies for the National Park and established the timetable for the remaining stages in the review (NFNPA 534/17). This report now seeks formal member endorsement of the proposed Submission draft New Forest National Park Local Plan 2016 – 2036 for the purposes of a final six week period of consultation to commence in January 2018; and then submission to the Secretary of State for independent examination in Spring 2018. 1.2 This report highlights the main policy approaches in the Submission draft Local Plan, which have been informed by the representations received on the draft Local Plan in 2016 and the completion of a number of evidence base studies. The Submission draft Local Plan also has regard to the changes in national planning policy announced this year. 2. The role of the Local Plan 2.1 The Government’s National Parks Vision and Circular (2010) recognises the importance of the planning system in the delivery of the two National Park purposes. For this reason the Environment Act 1995 makes national park authorities legally the sole planning authorities for their areas, covering the development management, planning enforcement, minerals & waste planning and planning policy functions.
