At the time of going to press more than 22m people have received the first vaccine dose A brief extract from the Elmbridge Parking Review on page 9 and more than 1m the second dose. However, a new variant from outlines new parking restrictions which have been proposed and agreed Brazil has been found in the UK which is more virulent and causing for Winterdown Road. A copy of the plan is also provided separately. some concern. On the 22nd February the Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, announced the publication of the third lockdown roadmap setting out a cautious schedule with 12th April and 17th May as dates for further easing of restrictions, and a possible target end date of 21st June. This is very encouraging news! WEST END VILLAGE SHOW The re-opening of schools, colleges, businesses and travel will be a huge relief for many! We all look forward to being able to support and enjoy the hospitality of the Village Club, Bar and Café, Village As Government restrictions are lifted cautiously over the next few Hall, the Prince of Wales, Garsons restaurant, village sports fixtures, months, the West End Village Show Committee is considering what the Village Show and meeting up with family and friends in the could be put together for the village this year. It would be great to think months to come. Thinking positively, the flowering of daffodils, that things will be back to normal but that seems unlikely. crocuses and blossom is a sure sign Spring is on its way! Because of this, we have decided that sadly, it is not viable to hold our traditional Show but we do hope that we might be able to put on a safe event in the spirit of the Show to end the summer on some cheer after difficult times living alongside a pandemic. Plans, of course, will be subject to change but more information will follow via our website, the Village News, social media and, if we can go ahead, we¶ll organise a leaflet drop in due course.

Paul Gibson, Treasurer West End Village Hall TREE CREEPERS Over Christmas we have been walking in Dick Fock¶s Wood to try to see the Hawfinches, but have failed. However we managed to spot Treecreepers on two occasions there, but due to intervening branches etc. I failed to PHOTOGRAPHIC CORNER photograph them even though the first sighting was of three birds. In despair we went back to our more . local Gt. Ridings Wood not looking for birds, just for exercise. What do you think? Yes, we spotted another Treecreeper and I even managed to photograph it! Fate seemed to be against me because I tripped on a stump and fell over in the mud onto my camera. Imagine my relief when I got home to find that not only was I all in one piece, but the camera was too!

The Review Officer (Elmbridge) Local Government Boundary Commission for England 14th Floor, Millbank Tower London SW1P 4QP Hersham Ward Boundary Changes - Objection Letter. Dear Sir or Madam, We object to the merging of Burwood park into Oatlands Park Ward for the reasons stated below. 1. The proposed boundary changes move Burwood Park from an orientation to Hersham Village, to which it shares a postcode, to Oatlands, from which it is physically separated by a railway line. 2. Burwood Park has an affinity with Hersham Village due to the rural nature of the community compared to Oatlands, which is a residential area with no natural centre. Residents of Burwood Park use the facilities of Hersham Village for shopping, the library, the doctor’s surgery and the Park lies within the parish of St Peter’s Church. The proposed new Wards are therefore not orientated correctly. 3. There is a risk that future Burwood Park planning issues will be considered in a residential context rather than the rural environment, which exists today. The current Hersham orientated local councillors understand and fully support the interests of Burwood Park residents. 4. The proposed boundary change to move Burwood Park into the Oatlands Ward, results in a change in parliamentary boundary - from Esher and Walton to Weybridge and Runnymede.

  • Esher and Walton Conservatives
    Elmbridge Electoral Review 2015 Submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England by Esher & Walton Conservative Association 1 Elmbridge Electoral Review This document is the Official Submission of the Esher & Walton Conservative Association (EWCA) in response to the consultation being held by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) on future warding arrangements for Elmbridge Borough Council (EBC). The Conservative Group that forms the administration of Elmbridge Borough Council asked for this review with an aim to reduce the number of Borough Councillors. We are therefore pleased that the LGBCE is minded to recommend a reduction to 48 Councillors. The Esher & Walton Conservative Association notes the Commission’s guidance in relation to Councils that elect by thirds. Elmbridge Borough Council took the decision on 17th November 2014 to retain the by thirds electoral system. Considering the Commission’s guidance and the law, we consider that all new wards should have three members in order to ensure electoral equality for all voters in the borough. In addition to creating inequality, having a few wards that do not vote when the rest of the borough is voting causes confusion with the electorate. Elmbridge is made up of a number of towns and villages each with its own identity and, ideally, these would remain separated amongst electoral wards. However, this is not possible under the by thirds electoral system and it would take more than two or three exceptions to keep all the community boundaries. We believe that different communities can join together in electoral wards – like some do in the Surrey County Council divisions that cover the borough – without affecting or damaging the identities of those communities.

As a resident in the area which the Boundary Commission wishes to join to the ward of Long Ditton, I am dismayed to find that the ancient historic ties to Thames Ditton will be severed and any changes will have a negative effect on local identities. It is not in the interests of the local community to make these changes. People living in the affected area will feel alienated and will feel that they have an inferior standing in the community if their postal addresses and wards conflict. Residents may also be confused about which councillors to contact on issues. Furthermore, I have established relationships with the current local councillors and have communicated with them many times. In contrast, I do not even know the names of the Long Ditton councillors and do not want to have to go through the whole process of explaining ongoing issues again to a new set of people. It is also a great concern to me that these proposals have been issued when many residents will be on holiday.

  • A Guide to Housing Options for Older People in Elmbridge
    A guide to Housing Options for Older People in Elmbridge Produced by: Housing Services Last updated: October 2018 Introduction This booklet is intended to help older people, their families, carers and organisations that work with older people in Elmbridge. It provides details on the range of housing options for older people in the Borough and how and where you can get more information. As people age many find that they have increasing difficulties managing their homes. Some older people would prefer to remain in their own home, whilst others look to move, sometimes choosing more specialised types of housing that might offer companionship, security, care and support. The directory provides information both on local services that are designed to allow people to remain in their own homes as well as details on the range of housing available for people who are considering moving. This guide does not provide details of all the housing options available to older people in the borough. It includes housing schemes and services specifically for older people provided by housing associations, Elmbridge Borough Council and local charities, but does not provide details on all the schemes provided in the private-sector. If you have any comments on this booklet, including any changes that need to be made, please either telephone Elmbridge Borough Council’s Housing on ☎ 01372 474632 or ✉ [email protected] Although the utmost care has been taken to ensure this booklet is both accurate and comprehensive, the Council takes no responsibility for any omissions or errors contained therein.

Introduction Why produce a Settlement Strategy? One of the primary aims of establishing a settlement strategy is to promote sustainable communities by making sure that the scale of new development is appropriate for the settlement in question and that it can be supported by adequate infrastructure and services. Ideally, the aim is to bring housing, employment and services closer together, reducing the need to travel by private car. However, it is not always possible to do this and as such it is important to plan so that existing settlements can become more sustainable and, where appropriate, accessed by means other than the private car. Elmbridge contains a wide variety of settlements ranging from urban town centres to small rural villages. A clear planning approach needs to be adopted, based on an understanding of their current characteristics and function, as well as likely deliverable development opportunities that exist for providing new development and improving infrastructure where necessary.
