At present the New Barn residential area is split between Dartford Borough, Sevenoaks District and Gravesham Borough; the part situated in Dartford is in the parish of ^outhfleet; the part in Sevenoaks is in the parish of Longfield, whilst the part in Gravesham is unparished. On 30 November 1979» Gravesham Borough Council requested ue to review the boundaries between the districts of Gravesham, Dartford and Sevenoaks in the vicinity of New Barn. Their request was in response to representations from the New Barn Ratepayers Association for the whole of the New Barn residential area to be incorporated within Gravesham Borough. The Association based their representations on a survey of opinion which they carried out in 1978 among the residents of New Barn on the question of whether the area should be under one authority, and if so, which one. The results indicated that a majority (8?#) of residents indicating a view preferred to see New Barn under one authority and a large proportion (6990 of these considered that this should be Gravesham. 2. We noted that Kent County Council, Dartford Borough Council, Sevenoaks District Council, and Longfield Parish Council were all opposed to a review beinp undertaken at that time, although Kent County Council and Dartford BOrough Council did a^ree that the current boundaries in the New Barn area were not wholly satisfactory.

    Settlement Hierarchy Assessment for the Vale of Aylesbury Plan Strategy September 2012 Contents Section 1 Purpose of Study and Page 3 Methodology Section 2 National and Regional Page 4 Context Section 3 The Evidence Page 6 Section 4 Settlement Audit Page 9 Methodology Section 5 Developing the Settlement Page 17 Hierarchy Section 6 Conclusion Page 21 1.Purpose of the assessment and methodology Introduction 1.1 The Settlement Hierarchy Assessment for Aylesbury Vale District forms part of the evidence base for identifying the distribution of growth for the Vale of Aylesbury Plan Strategy. The assessment uses existing evidence and an audit of settlement services and facilities in order to determine the capacity of settlements to accommodate sustainable development and the likely role of each settlement within the district. 1.2 It will also provide the background to allocating sites should this be required in a subsequent allocation development plan document or through Neighbourhood Development Plans. Methodology Overview 1.3 This study firstly sets out the national and regional policy context in section two, it then considers the existing evidence in section 3 and section 4 identifies the methodology used to carry out the audit of facilities and services. The results of the audit are identified in a matrix in appendix A. It is acknowledged that the services and facilities in settlements may change over time, the audit is intended to be regularly updated to inform further policy documents including Neighbourhood Plans. It is not anticipated that there will be such significant change at any of the further audits to requiree th hierarchy to change during the plan period (other than where already identified in the plan, such as the new train station at Winslow).

A right wing group seeks to rise roughshod over relationships that have endured for decades. Many citizens would like to return to how it was in the 1960s. Others feel what they were promised in the 1970s is different to how things have turned out. Meanwhile, remainers are striving to find any legal means to prevent what the government intends. Yes, we have to face it – the plans for a Unitary Council in Buckinghamshire are not going well. As the erstwhile Bucks district councils plan legal action against the Secretary of State’s scheme, one wonders again just why our County Councillor is so, to use his phrase, ‘delighted’, at Mr Brokenshire’s decision. Some call for a ‘Buxit’ with us re-locating in the Royal Borough and I recommend Virginia Silvester’s article in this issue on the evolution of Bucks’ borders to get an idea of how Dorney came to be poised on the edge of two counties. Anybody reading the Parish Council minutes in this issue will see how our representatives believe that decisions over liaison with the M4 Project are being taken far to the north of Dorney.

  • 2016 Air Quality Annual Status Report (ASR)
    DARTFORD Dartford Borough Council BOROUGH COUNCIL 2016 Air Quality Annual Status Report (ASR) In fulfilment of Part IV of the Environment Act 1995 Local Air Quality Management LAQM Annual Status Report 2016 Dartford Borough Council Local Authority James Fox Officer Department Environmental Health Address Dartford Borough Council Telephone 01322 343434 E-mail [email protected] Report Reference DBCASR16 number Date January 2017 LAQM Annual Status Report 2016 Dartford Borough Council Executive Summary: Air Quality in Our Area This report fulfils the requirements of the Local Air Quality Management as set out in Part IV of the Environment Act (1995), the Air Quality Strategy for England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland 2007 and the relevant Policy and Technical Guidance documents. Air Quality in Dartford Borough Air pollution is associated with a number of adverse health impacts. It is recognised as a contributing factor in the onset of heart disease and cancer. Additionally, air pollution particularly affects the most vulnerable in society: children and older people, and those with heart and lung conditions. There is also often a strong correlation with equalities issues, because areas with poor air quality are also often the less affluent areas1,2. The annual health cost to society of the impacts of particulate matter alone in the UK is estimated to be around £16 billion3. The main source of air pollution in the borough is road traffic emissions from major roads, notably the M25, A282, A2, A226, A296 and A206. Dartford suffers from significant congestion, especially on the A282 Dartford Tunnel Approach Road, A2 Bean Interchange for Bluewater and main approach roads into Dartford town centre.
