Anderton Parish Council Mrs Maureen Price (parish clerk) 19th August 2015 Review Officer (Lancashire) Local Government Boundary Commission for England 14th Floor Millbank Tower Millbank London SW1P 4QP Re: Consultation on potential new electoral division arrangements for Lancashire Dear Sir, I write in response to the public consultation on the above topic and to convey the view of Anderton Parish Council. Anderton is one of the parishes at the south east extremity of the Lancashire boundary. Our adjacent parishes within Lancashire are Adlington, Heath Charnock and Rivington. Of these Adlington is the most populous and is considered to be the local ‘service centre’. Many of the local facilities and amenities used by these four parishes are contained within the township of Adlington; examples being community centres, recreation grounds, bank, library, railway station and employment zone. In addition members of the four councils regularly work together on common community activities, the most significant probably being the annual remembrance service, but also including environmental and commemorative projects. The four parishes also share common infrastructure to some degree, with public highways and Rights of Way crossing two or more parish boundaries. There is also a common neighbourhood policing team. In these respects problems and issues arising that fall under County responsibility may have effect across all these areas. We therefore consider that, in the best interest of our local community and for most effective local governance, it would be highly desirable if the four parishes of Adlington, Anderton, Heath Charnock and Rivington were contained within a common electoral boundary division of Lancashire and represented by the same County Councillor. Yours faithfully, Cllr. Ian Horsfield Chair - Anderton Parish Council Subject: boundaries From Bowland Forest higher division parish council This parish council strongly wish for the ward of Longridge with Bowland to remain as it is now. We would also very much like the Bowland parishes to remain together. Thank you Rachel Carr clerk 1 Dear Sir/Madam Farington Parish Council has considered the consultation on the electoral review of Lancashire County Council. We feel that the number of County Councillors should remain the same at 84 Members and we are also quite happy with the current arrangements in the South Ribble area that affect our Parish Council. Kind regards Sue -- Mrs Sue Whittam Clerk to Farington Parish Council Subject: Foulridge Parish Council Dear Mr Morrison, At the Parish council meeting on the 3rd August 2015 it was agreed by the Council that no action should be taken to change the electoral boundaries. Foulridge Parish Council is satisfied with the existing boundaries and can identify no necessity for change. Regards. Yours sincerely, Jane Killeen Clerk. 1 Subject: Electoral review of Lancashire Dear heather, Freckleton Parish Council would like the boundaries of the two wards in Freckleton to remain the same and would like the number of Parish Councillors to remain at 6 for each ward. K M Armistead, Clerk to Freckleton Parish Council, 28th August 2015 ELECTORAL REVIEW OF LANCASHIRE Dear Sir/Madam, I write with reference to the current Boundary Commission review of the future electoral division boundaries for Lancashire County Council. You are asking local people and organisations for their views as to the best pattern of electoral boundary divisions for the county. The purpose of this letter is to inform you of the views of Gressingham Parish Council. (The villages of Gressingham and Eskrigge lie within the Upper Lune Valley ward). In a previous Boundary Commission review, the option to join our the Upper Lune valley ward with the adjoining Kellet ward was considered. This option was not adopted, but we fear that such a move may be proposed again during this review. We strongly oppose such a change to our existing ward boundary, for the following reasons: ∙ We have always been classed as the Lune Valley and cannot see any benefits from moving to join the Kellet ward. ∙ Geographically, Hornby is our nearest major centre of local population and amenities, and it is where Gressingham villagers mainly go to access local facilities such as shops and leisure activities. ∙ Our current Ward Councillor lives in a nearby village and has more affiliation and local knowledge with Gressingham/Eskrigge, and this may not be true of a member in the Kellet Ward, however competent and well meaning. ∙ The majority of young people in Gressingham and Eskrigge do not go to the Kellet schools, but attend schools in Hornby and other villages in the Upper Lune Valley. ∙ There is a strong link between the churches of Gressingham and Hornby ‐ indeed, they are part of the same benefice. ∙ There is no connection with the Kellet wards from an historical, cultural or community perspective. (The villages within Kellet ward are more aligned to Halton, Carnforth and the outer reaches of Lancaster). ∙ Gressingham and Eskrigge are essentially rural communities with a strong agricultural farming heritage, which is more closely aligned with similar communities in Hornby, Wennington, Melling and other areas of the Upper Lune Valley. ∙ Hornby village has many amenities which are regularly and frequently used by the Gressingham community. These include; shops, post office, swimming pool, primary & secondary schools, Village Institute (a major centre for local social & cultural events), doctor (GP surgery), C‐of‐E church, Catholic church and a Residential Care home. ∙ Hornby is a very active community, which has many Organisations which Gressingham villagers regularly use and are actively involved. Organisations include (in no particular order): Operatic group, Drama group, children's drama group, Village Trust (which organises various social events), Church religious worship (both C‐of‐E and Catholic), church Sunday school, church choir, bell ringing, flower club, keep‐fit groups, public gym, snooker club, scout group, primary & secondary schools, art group, Jazz group, whist & dominoes group, karate group, Probus, senior citizens dancing group, children's dancing group, Zumba, art group, Mothers' Union, Help‐Line for local villagers, swimming club. In drawing up a pattern of electoral divisions, the Commission states that it must balance three criteria, including, 'That the pattern of electoral boundary divisions should, as far as possible, reflect the interests and identities of local communities'. We submit that the present boundary satisfies our needs in this respect, for the (many) reasons given above. In conclusion, the previous Boundary Commission review concluded that Gressingham should stay as we are, within the Upper Lune Valley ward. We strongly support this view. I trust that you will take these comments into account on behalf of the Gressingham Parish Council and Electorate when the Boundary Commission makes it's final decision. Yours faithfully Neil Read Chairman, Gressingham Parish Council To: The Review Officer (Lancashire) Local Government Boundary Commission for England 14th floor, Millbank Tower Millbank London SW1P 4QP. Email: [email protected] Dear Sir/Madam Grimsargh Parish Council have considered the consultation on the Electoral Review of Lancashire and they would like the number of elected Members for Lancashire County Council to remain the same. They are also happy with the current boundary arrangements as Grimsargh is a rural village and is linked with other similar rural parishes which form part of the Preston Rural Division at Lancashire County Council. I hope that you can take this comments into account when considering the boundary review. Kind regards Mrs Sue Whittam Clerk to Grimsargh Parish Council Sent: 18 July 2015 13:12 To: reviews Subject: Electoral Review of Lancashire ‐ view of Inskip‐with‐Sowerby Parish Council Inskip‐with‐Sowerby is a rural parish within Wyre Borough in the County of Lancashire. It is located about 6 miles from Kirkham and about 8 miles from Poulton‐Le‐Fylde, Garstang, and Preston. As a result it tends to find itself on the margins of Districts, Wards, and Electoral Divisions and tends to oscillate between Parliamentary Constituencies when there is a Parliamentary Boundary Review. The Parish Council would be concerned if the Parish were allocated to a LCC Electoral Division oriented towards Preston. Whilst some in the community might regard Preston as an urban centre to which they are drawn, but most would portray Inskip as being part of a rural Wyre and Fylde region with its own distinct character. Given a free choice, the Parish Council would recommend remaining within an Electoral Division oriented towards Wyre, though an orientation towards Fylde would not be disagreeable Kind regards, Inskip-with-Sowerby Parish Clerk own Division, West Lancashire South, is geographically widespread, as well as being above the average number of electors for the county. This excess in elector numbers seems likely to grow significantly in Halsall, Aughton and Lathom South, whereas West Lancashire East is set to grow more slowly from a low (-6%) comparative starting point. This Parish, being rural or semi-rural and having historic links with Westhead (part of Derby ward), Lathom and Newburgh wards could conceivably

  • Lancashire County Council’S Proposals for a New Pattern of Electoral Divisions: Submission to the LGBCE
    Lancashire County Council’s Proposals for a new pattern of Electoral Divisions: Submission to the LGBCE Lancashire County Council Proposed Arrangements for Electoral Divisions Introduction The Council made a submission to the Boundary Commission for a Council size of 84 councillors on 22 May 2015. The Commission accepted the submission as the basis for the stage one public consultation on the pattern of electoral divisions. This report contains Lancashire County Council’s (LCC) proposals for division arrangements within the administrative boundaries of the twelve city/district/borough councils, the proposed names for the divisions and the number of Councillors per division. Prior to the consultation process polling district electorate data, for June 2015, was collated from district councils and projected to 2021. Projections are based on a combination of Office for National Statistics population projections for the adult population and data on additional housing up until 2021. The latter was requested from district councils. Table 1 shows that the 2021 electorate across Lancashire is projected to be 930,978 adults. With 84 councillors, the average electorate per councillor will be 11,083 adults. This was accepted by the Boundary Commission. Table 1 2021 projected Lancashire electorate 2021 Number of Average electorate projected councillors per councillor electorate Lancashire 930,978 84 11,083 Summary of council size by district Analysis indicates that based on a council size of 84 the divisional pattern by district to achieve the best electoral equality possible is as set out in Table 2. Based on this analysis, the number of councillors will change in Chorley and Preston.

  • Admissions Arrangements 2021/22
    LANCASHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL DETERMINED ADMISSION ARRANGEMENTS FOR COMMUNITY AND VOLUNTARY CONTROLLED SECONDARY SCHOOLS FOR 2021/22 ALL DISTRICTS The purpose of the admission arrangements is to ensure that all school places for maintained schools are allocated and offered in an open and fair way. LCC must comply with the School Admissions Code, published by the Department for Education [DfE], which has 'a force of law'. When a school is oversubscribed, ie, it has more applicants than places available, it needs a policy to allocate and offer places in an open and fair way, in line with the School Admissions Code. Listed below is the policy and associated procedures used by Lancashire County Council when allocating places for Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools. The supplementary notes and Geographical Priority Areas [GPA] which form part of the admission arrangements make it clear to parents how and why places are allocated in a fair, clear and objective way. Towards the end of the report, the admission arrangements for the Community and Voluntary Controlled Sixth Forms are provided :~ SECONDARY An admission number will be published showing the maximum number of pupils that the school will admit in the Autumn Term 2021. Parents are given the opportunity to express three preferences for a secondary school. Published criteria are used to decide which children should be offered the available places. In secondary schools an equal preference system operates, whereby the three parental preferences are given equal status. Each preference will be considered equally against the admissions criteria. When a secondary school is oversubscribed the following priorities apply in order: 1.

  • Shireoaks, Wigan Road, Lathom, Ormskirk
    No.4 APPLICATION NO. 2019/0201/FUL LOCATION Shireoaks Wigan Road Lathom Ormskirk Lancashire L40 6JN PROPOSAL Demolition of existing barn and storage shed and erection of dwelling and stable block. APPLICANT Mr A Howard WARD Bickerstaffe PARISH Lathom South TARGET DATE 3rd June 2019 1.0 REFERRAL 1.1 This application was to be determined under the Council’s delegation scheme; however, Councillor Rigby has requested it be referred to Planning Committee to consider the possible negative impact on Green Belt along with concerns regarding site drainage. 2.0 SUMMARY 2.1 I am satisfied that the proposed development is not inappropriate development in the Green Belt and is compliant with the NPPF and Policy GN1 of the Local Plan. This is due to status of the land being brownfield (previously developed land) and the proposal complying with paragraph 145 (g); the proposed redevelopment of previously developed land would not have a greater impact on the openness of the Green Belt than the existing development. Furthermore I am satisfied that the site is not located in an isolated/unsustainable location and is therefore compliant with paragraphs 78 and 79 of the NPPF. In design terms, the proposal is considered to be compliant with Policy GN3 of the Local Plan and no issues have been identified with regards to the impact of the proposal on the amenities of neighbouring properties. Lastly the proposal has been assessed in relation to its impact on matters such as drainage, ecology and highways/parking and, subject to conditions, the proposal is considered to be compliant with national and local policy.
