ANDY COLLINS Your Local Choice for Bosham Ward CHICHESTER DISTRICT COUNCIL BY-ELECTION 4th May 2017 ANDY COLLINS Your Local Choice for Bosham Ward Including Chidham and Hambrook Hello! My name is Andy Collins May I take this opportunity to introduce myself as the Conservative candidate for the Bosham Ward on the Chichester District Council. I have lived in this area for the last 40 years and am deeply attached to this part of the country. We first lived in Bosham and are now settled in Hambrook. I have been fully involved in local affairs and I have been on the committee of the local Residents’ Association for many years, becoming Chairman. After my retirement I also became a member of the Chidham & Hambrook Parish Council and am now Vice-Chairman. I took on the task of producing the Neighbourhood Plan for the parish. The Plan secured overwhelming support in a referendum and is now adopted. For 15 years I ran my own engineering design company and am interested in renewable energy, especially for vehicles. We all need to drive but we need to be aware of the pollution vehicles cause. If we enjoy the community we live in, we want to see its preservation and improvement. So I want to be involved in the District Council’s decision-making on your behalf, especially with housing, roads and other infrastructure. I will do my best to represent the needs and wishes of all the people in this Ward on the District Council.

  • Streams, Ditches and Wetlands in the Chichester District. by Dr
    Streams, Ditches and Wetlands in the Chichester District. By Dr. Carolyn Cobbold, BSc Mech Eng., FRSA Richard C J Pratt, BA(Hons), PGCE, MSc (Arch), FRGS Despite the ‘duty of cooperation’ set out in the National Planning Policy Framework1, there is mounting evidence that aspects of the failure to deliver actual cooperation have been overlooked in the recent White Paper2. Within the subregion surrounding the Solent, it is increasingly apparent that the development pressures are such that we risk losing sight of the natural features that underscore not only the attractiveness of the area but also the area’s natural health itself. This paper seeks to focus on the aquatic connections which maintain the sub-region’s biological health, connections which are currently threatened by overdevelopment. The waters of this sub-region sustain not only the viability of natural habitat but also the human economy of employment, tourism, recreation, leisure, and livelihoods. All are at risk. The paper is a plea for greater cooperation across the administrative boundaries of specifically the eastern Solent area. The paper is divided in the following way. 1. Highlands and Lowlands in our estimation of worth 2. The Flow of Water from Downs to Sea 3. Wetlands and Their Global Significance 4. Farmland and Fishing 5. 2011-2013: Medmerry Realignment Scheme 6. The Protection and Enhancement of Natural Capital in The Land ‘In Between’ 7. The Challenge to Species in The District’s Wildlife Corridors 8. Water Quality 9. Habitat Protection and Enhancement at the Sub-Regional Level 10. The policy restraints on the destruction of natural capital 11.

  • Boundary Commission England Recommendations for Review of Wards of Chichester District Council
    BOUNDARY COMMISSION ENGLAND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR REVIEW OF WARDS OF CHICHESTER DISTRICT COUNCIL Response from FISHBOURNE PARISH COUNCIL on the Boundary Commission’s three main considerations. 1. Electoral Equality achieved by Draft recommendations: Boundary Commission Recommendation: Bosham, Fishbourne, Appledram and Donnington to form a 3 member ward entitled Bosham & Donnington Ward. Electorate Electors per Variance Electorate Electors per Variance (2015) Councillor from (2021) Councillor from (2015) average (2021) average 7,924 2,641 3% 8,355 2,785 1% COMMENT: The proposal meets the consideration of improving electoral equality. 2. Reflection of Community Identity. COMMENT: There is serious concern about the unintended damage that would be caused by the choice of name for the new ward. Though “Bosham and Donnington” has the advantage of marking the geographical extremes of the new ward, it omits two of the village names and this could have damaging (though unintended) outcomes. Whatever rule is applied to naming of new wards has to have room for some flexibility. This is where local knowledge has such an important part to play. In this particular case, combining the names of four separate villages under the name of two of them conflicts both with the Fishbourne Neighbourhood Plan and with the CDC's own local plan both of which stress the need for the preservation of the individual villages and of the neighbouring AONB. This is vital not only because of the quality of life in the separate villages but also because we are fighting to prevent major developers from building on the strategic gaps between villages and destroying for ever the charm and attraction of the coastal villages and their popularity as a tourist area.

Monitoring and Review 63 2 Foreword Neighbourhood planning was introduced by the Localism Act 2011 and provides communities with the opportunity to shape the future development of their town or parish by putting in place a Neighbourhood Development Plan. In December 2012 Bosham Parish Council ("BPC") applied to Chichester District Council ("CDC") for the designation of the Bosham parish boundary as the Neighbourhood Plan Area. This designation was made on 18th March 2013 and work on the Bosham Parish Neighbourhood Plan began. The Bosham Parish Neighbourhood Plan ("BPNP") has been produced by a Project Team appointed by and reporting to BPC and as a result of the careful consideration of numerous consultation exercises and responses from the community and a wide variety of local stakeholders. Detailed consideration has also been given to numerous evidential sources including local survey information and higher level planning policies and guidance. This work has been undertaken with the assistance of the Bosham Association and community volunteers and with the advice and support of the CDC and the Chichester Harbour Conservancy.

  • The Real Natives
    ‘Real Natives’ A Study of the History of Oyster Fishing in Chichester Harbour for the Sussex Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authority Dr Ian Friel MA, PhD, FSA © Ian Friel 2020 Oysters - a once-common food Poor food for friars ‘Give me then of thy gold, to make our cloister’, Quoth he, ‘for many a mussel and many an oyster ‘When other men have been full well at ease ‘Hath been our food, our cloister for to raise’ Geoffrey Chaucer, The Summoner’s Tale, c 1387-88 A Chichester bet In 1813 a man named Martin from Dell Quay Mill and another named Fogden from Donnington met at Chalkright’s fishmonger shop in South Street, Chichester, to settle a bet as to who could eat the most oysters: ‘in a short time each swallowed four hundred large ones’ until Martin called for a halt. Fogden agreed, as long as Martin paid for the oysters. They then went to the King’s Head for a glass of brandy, followed by an eel pie supper at Martin’s house. Ipswich Journal, 11 December 1813, p 1 The London Oyster Season opens: Billingsgate Fishmarket, August 1835: ‘At an early hour a scene of unusual bustle and confusion was apparent. Not less than 5,000 persons were in waiting to be served with the ‘real natives’, while the streets in the vicinity were blocked up with every species of locomotive vehicle to convey the oysters to the various quarters of the metropolis. There were no less than fifty sail of vessels in front of Billingsgate laden with oysters, chiefly from the Kentish coast.

  • Written Evidence Submitted by Richard C. J. Pratt, Environmental Planning Advisor for Save Our South Coast Alliance
    Save Our South Coast Alliance WQR0024 Written evidence submitted by Richard C. J. Pratt, Environmental Planning Advisor for Save Our South Coast Alliance Sewage and other Polluting Discharges to Solent Harbours We are submitting evidence for a group of individuals called Save Our South Coast Alliance (https://www.sosca.org.uk/). This alliance has affiliates across parishes surrounding the Eastern Solent i.e. west and south of Chichester. Summary Conclusions from the evidence in the following paper a. How effective are the planning policy and standards around sustainable drainage systems to reduce urban diffuse pollution in England? At present it is not effective as infrastructure investment lags far behind consented new developments and water companies have historically underinvested in future growth and left inadequate historical systems. b. Should local authorities and highways agencies be given a duty to prevent pollution to watercourses without prior treatment? LA should be given direct control c. How effective is Ofwat’s remit and regulation of water companies? Does it facilitate sufficient investment in improvements to treat water quality, including sustainable drainage system outflows and nature-based solutions such as constructed wetlands? The experience of Chichester does not bode well. d. Is adequate investment being made in adapting water treatment systems to future climate change? No. Currently in the Chichester District we have half a dozen Waste Water Treatment Works very close to High Water Spring Tides levels with a local plan proposing many hundred more connections. In addition we are facing wetter winters and drier summers. e. How could the designation of inland bathing waters by water companies affect the costs of achieving the associated water quality standards? The bathing water designated areas have not kept up with all the new places where people now do wild swimming summer and winter.

    Chichester Harbour & South Downs National Park : Views study Appendices APPENDIX 1: STUDY AREA WITH DESIGNATIONS & POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT AREAS 33 Chichester Harbour & South Downs National Park : Views study Appendices APPENDIX 2: METHODOLOGY The identification of relevant viewpoints was initially undertaken as part of a desk exercise using a combination of 1-25000 scale ordnance survey mapping, and google earth aerial imagery. Professional judgement of the nature of the landform and intervening tree groups helped to identify locations where key views might be possible. These provisional viewpoints were then examined by field survey to assess whether the target landmarks were visible. In the case of the part 1 study this was Chichester Cathedral, in the case of part 2 this was a much wider target of either areas of Chichester Harbour (primarily the Chichester, Bosham or Thorney channel), or the South Downs ( primarily Kingley Vale, and the Trundle ). Previous work undertaken by others as part of the studies for Chichester District Council (Future development of Chichester Landscape and Visual Amenity Considerations' 2005) and for the South Downs National Park (View characterisation and analysis 2015 had both identified important viewpoints which were included. In the case of the latter study ( covering a much larger area) special or Iconic viewpoints had been based on whether sites had been marked on OS mapping as viewpoints, whether facilities for enjoying the view were provided, whether the LCA mentioned a specific viewpoint, and whether the location had been used or referred to in artistic works. EG Arthur Tansley and Kingley Vale, or Lambert and the Dell Quay area.
