  • APPENDIX 5 Discounted SLAA Sites List
    APPENDIX 5 Discounted SLAA Sites List TECHNICAL NOTE Job Name: Chelmsford SLAA Job No: 35446 Note No: 2 Date: 19 August 2015 Prepared By: Daniel Wheelwright Subject: List of Discounted Sites from the SLAA Assessment The list below sets out those sites which are subject to the ‘absolute constraints’ (as listed in the SLAA Criteria note) in their entirety. Where sites are only partially affected by the absolute constraint(s), the site is still taken forward into the SLAA database on the basis of the resultant unaffected area. It should be noted that for Green Belt and ‘Green Wedge’ sites, two versions of the SLAA assessment were undertaken (see SLAA Database Methodology and Output Note). The first is a ‘policy-on’ approach of treating Green Belt and Green Wedge sites as an absolute constraint to development. The list below reflects this approach. The second ‘policy-off’ approach does not discount Green Belt and Green Wedge sites and includes them within the assessment. It should be noted however that Sites CFS10, CFS32 CFS253 remain ‘absolute constraints’ under both approaches – given they are site specific reasons for their discounting - and therefore do not feature in the SLAA database.

  • From: the Dean the Very Revd Nicholas Henshall
    From: The Dean The Very Revd Nicholas Henshall 9 June 2020 CHELMSFORD CATHEDRAL RE-OPENING Chelmsford Cathedral is re-opening for personal prayer and reflection on 4th July and will then be open every day from 11 am to 3 pm. The Dean writes: I am delighted to announce that Chelmsford Cathedral is re-opening for personal prayer and reflection on 4th July. The Cathedral will then be open daily from 11 am to 3 pm. This is a great moment, and it is important to stress that is just a first step. Public worship will not resume for some time to come, but it has been wonderful to welcome so many joining us on-line for the daily prayer. That will continue to be streamed live on Facebook at 7.45 am and 5.15 pm every day, with the Eucharist streamed on Sundays at 10.30 am. From 4th July the interior of the Cathedral will be laid out in a different way. This is to comply fully with guidance from the Government and from the Church of England. We are determined to ensure that everyone who visits the Cathedral can do so in full confidence that it is a safe and secure environment. A one-way system will be in operation through the Cathedral, with everyone entering through the South Door and leaving through the North Door. There will be handwash at the door which everyone must use, and certain areas will not accessible, including the vestry block. Any seating in the Cathedral will be appropriately distanced, and every chair will be cleaned after every use, in accordance with the guidelines.

  • South Woodham Ferrers Town Council Masterplan Site 10 – Land North of South Woodham Ferrers Policy Board (14Th January 2021) Submission
    South Woodham Ferrers Town Council Masterplan Site 10 – Land North of South Woodham Ferrers Policy Board (14th January 2021) Submission The Town Council welcomes the opportunity to comment on this Masterplan for this development, so far: - • We are impressed with the layout and green focus of the development and the amount of open space that is being provided. • We fully support and are pleased with the commitment from the developers to ensure the whole site is constructed to Essex Vernacular design standards, in keeping with the rest of the town. • We have noted the changes to the public transport commitments, and we are pleased that a (5 year) expansion of the 36 service, including its through journey to Broomfield Hospital, as well as enhanced links to Basildon, are now part of the Masterplan submission. We are a little disappointed that the proposals do not address the need for a more direct bus service to Maldon, especially as the submission appears to promote a bus stop at Eve’s Corner in Danbury as some major Maldon-South Woodham Ferrers-Chelmsford interchange station. The Town Council raises the following points that we believe require further clarity and understanding. • We feel the pedestrian crossing of the Burnham Road for senior school pupils still remains unsafe and we would like to see more thought and consideration for safer crossings to be examined. • We believe the new primary school should be constructed and brought into operational use as soon as possible as this will reduce crosstown car journeys, a problem already identified by the submission from Essex Highways.

Data are collected from all 42 mainland Church of England cathedrals and from Westminster Abbey, through an annual cathedral statistics survey.

For reference, the survey form and guidance notes can be found in Appendix 2. Worship attendance (page 7) • A total of 37,300 people per week (82% adults and 18% children aged under 16) were reported attending usual cathedral services in 2019, a similar number to 2018 (37,100). Total weekly attendance is 13% larger in 2019 than it was a decade ago in 2009. • Weekly attendance at usual cathedral services is split fairly evenly between Sunday (47%) and midweek (53%) services.
