  • BRANKSOME PARK and CANFORD CLIFFS RESIDENTS’ ASSOCIATION (The RA)
    25 November 2019 BRANKSOME PARK AND CANFORD CLIFFS RESIDENTS’ ASSOCIATION (the RA) BOURNEMOUTH, CHRISTCHURCH AND POOLE COUNCIL (the Council) LOCAL PLAN (the Plan) REPORT - Identifying Issues for the new BCP Local Plan INTRODUCTION 1. The Council has given notice of its intention to draw up a new Local Plan covering its area – the former boroughs of Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole (BCP). Poole recently prepared a Local Plan for its area and this forms a starting point for the development of that area. That plan now needs to be considered in a wider context. Is it still relevant, how does it fit with the needs and opportunities of the new Council? 2. By formal notice circulated on 7th October 2019, the Council invited comments on the issues it confronts in formulating the new Plan. The RA supports the development of a Local Plan for the new conurbation and the comments below give our initial response. For convenience, they are given next to the key priorities identified by the Council in its invitation. 3. The RA covers broadly the areas of Branksome Park and Canford Cliffs, but excluding Sandbanks, all within the Canford Cliffs Ward. Significant Conservation Areas (CA) occur in the Ward. The comments in this report relate largely to planning in the RA area but some broader issues e.g. transportation should be read as commentary on the BCP area as a whole. 1 KEY PRIORITIES AND THE ASSOCIATION’S COMMENTS ISSUE 1 - Sustainable Environment In planning for sustainable growth, how might we: manage congestion and increase opportunities for active eco-friendly travel, by walking, cycling and public transport? improve access to parks and open spaces? protect and enhance Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole’s exceptional natural environment? tackle the challenges posed by climate change? Association’s Comments: 4.

  • Poole Borough Council Election Results 1973-1995
    Poole Borough Council Election Results 1973-1995 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.

  • Polling Districts, Polling Places & Polling Stations Review 2019
    Polling districts, polling places & polling stations review 2019 (Acting) Returning Officer’s Final Recommendations October 2019 Background In accordance with statue every parliamentary constituency must be divided into polling districts. For each polling district there must be a designated “polling place” and a designated “polling station”. A polling district is the geographical area which is a sub-division of a constituency or ward. The term “polling place” is not defined in law but it is suggested that it refers to the location in which the polling station is to be situated. Given the geography, density and availability of suitable buildings to use as polling stations at short notice in the BCP Council area, it is proposed to continue the previous practice of designating the entire polling district as the polling place. Polling stations are the physical spaces where the poll takes place. The designation of the Borough's polling districts and places is the responsibility of the Council. The allocation of polling stations within polling places is not a Council function and is the responsibility of the (Acting) Returning Officer. Although the allocation of polling stations is the responsibility of the Returning Officer for the election concerned, in practice the consideration of the location of likely polling stations will have an important impact on the choice of polling places. The Electoral Commission’s Guidance on statutory reviews of polling places and polling districts recognises that the identification of suitable locations for polling stations is a key factor in determining polling places and districts, and consequently this has been a significant factor in forming the basis of final proposals.
