LEADER OF THE COUNCIL’S VIEWS ON CURRENT ISSUES The Leader advised that he would speak in relation to ward issues rather than on this item. 34. PORTFOLIO HOLDERS’ REPORTS The Portfolio Holder for Housing and Strategic Planning presented his report. Responses to comments included: • Shopmobility – the current location at Cavendish Lodge was not ideal, however a temporary location was necessary following the demolition of the multi-storey car park. A future location for the organisation would need to be considered in proposals for the redevelopment of Beeston Town Centre. • Beeston Bus Station – contractors had been involved in the planning and design of the proposed bus terminal. The turning angles within the current arrangements are liable to lead to accidents. The current station would not close and the Council had done everything possible to consider the safety of the public. The new transport interchange will work well and add to the vibrancy of the redesigned town centre. Nottinghamshire County Council would be asked to provide clarification over a report which stated that a number of buses would not be able to use the new terminal. • Community Café – the Café at Yew Tree Court had been a great success. • Caretaking and cleaning services – the Community Clean-Up events had been very successful. • School playing fields – unofficial proposals to build on green belt site in Bramcote were not part of the Council’s Core Strategy. In the absence of the Portfolio Holder for Community Safety the Leader presented the report. Responses to comments included: • Crime figures – there had been a marked rise in overall crime in Eastwood South which had increased by over 35%. • Drug and alcohol clinics – there are reservations over how contracts are awarded in this essential field of work. 3 • Fire Service – proposals to reduce the number of fire engines in the Borough wold be submitted to a Cabinet meeting. • ‘Sexting’ – the hysteria regarding ‘sexting’ was leading to the potential criminalisation of all teenagers, which was not in the best interests of young people. The Portfolio Holder for Resources presented his report. Responses to comments included: • Council tax collection – the continued good figures were partly due to the decision not to pass on the council tax reduction. • Profile of Broxtowe – thanks were passed to the Principal Performance & Equalities Manager who had distributed the latest version of the Profile. • Dementia – councillors were encouraged to take part in training to become dementia friends. The Portfolio Holder for Environment presented his report. Responses to comments included: • Glass collection – following feedback on the inefficacy of the previous bag system, the red bins were seen as an improvement.

Our counter proposal accepts 15 of the ward boundaries proposed by the LGBCE and seeks to bring together the remaining boundaries suggested by the LGBCE to maintain the important principle of multi member wards. iv) Our proposed warding pattern meets the commission’s statutory criteria in respect of improving electoral equality, representing community identities and interests and providing for convenient and effective local government.

  • Chapter One: Introduction 1
    Feminism, citizenship and social activity: The role and importance of local women’s organisations, Nottingham 1918-1969 Samantha Clements, B.A., M.A. Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2008 ABSTRACT This local study of single-sex organisations in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire is an attempt to redress some of the imbalanced coverage given to this area of history thus far. A chronological study, it examines the role, importance and, to some extent, impact of a wide range of women’s organisations in the local context. Some were local branches of national organisations, others were specifically concerned with local issues. The local focus allows a challenge to be made to much current thought as to the strength of a “women’s movement” in the years between the suffrage movement and the emergence of a more radical form of feminism in the 1970s. The strength of feminist issues and campaigning is studied in three periods – the inter-war period, the Second World War and its immediate aftermath, and the 1950s and 1960s. The first two periods have previously been studied on a national level but, until recently, the post-Second World war era has been written off as overwhelmingly domestic and therefore unconstructive to the achievement of any feminist aims. This study suggests that, at a local level, this is not the case and that other conclusions reached about twentieth century feminism at a national level are not always applicable to the local context. The study also goes further than attempting to track interest in equality feminism in the mid years of the century by discussing the importance of citizenship campaigns and the social dimension of membership of women’s organisations.

  • East Midlands
    Liberal Democrat submission for BCE 3rd consultation East Midlands Submission to the Boundary Commission for England third period of consultation: East Midlands Summary There is a factual error in the Commission’s report concerning the Liberal Democrat counter-proposals in the Leicestershire / Northamptonshire / Nottinghamshire / Rutland sub-region. We would, therefore, ask the Commission to reconsider the scheme we put forward. We welcome the change the Commission has made to its proposal for Mansfield. We welcome the fact that the Commission has kept to its original proposals in Lincolnshire, much of Derbyshire and Derby, and in Northampton. We consider that the changes that the Commission has made to four constituencies in Derbyshire, affecting the disposition of three wards, are finely balanced judgement calls with which we are content to accept the Commission’s view. The change that the Commission has made to the Kettering and Wellingborough constituencies would not have needed to be considered if it had agreed to our proposal for an unchanged Wellingborough seat. The Commission’s proposal to move the Burton Joyce and Stoke Bardolph ward into its proposed Sherwood constituency means that it is now proposing three Nottinghamshire constituencies (Bassetlaw, Broxtowe, Sherwood) which contain a ward which is inaccessible from the rest of the seat. We are not in agreement with the Commission’s failure to comply with the spirit of the legislation or the letter of its own guidelines in respect of these three proposed constituencies. We are not in agreement with the Commission’s failure to respect the boundaries of the City of Nottingham to the extent of proposing three constituencies that cross the Unitary Authority boundary.

  • Landscape Evolution
    APPENDIX 5 APPENDIX 5: LANDSCAPE EVOLUTION This information has been taken from the Nottingham Landscape Guidelines published in 1997 undertaken by Nottinghamshire County Council. Magnesian Limestone Ridge ‘There is still much to learn about the development of the landscapes of the Magnesian Limestone Ridge . Considered to have been a remote wooded area, of late interest to settlers, it has often been considered only as part of Sherwood Forest. While this latter is indeed true, it is not the whole story which, for the want of detailed study, can only be sketched in outline and with some imprecision. Little coherent can be said about the prehistoric and Roman landscapes of the region. Evidence of some of the earlier human occupation and activity in the East Midlands, during the later Ice Ages and after, comes from Creswell Crags. The caves of the limestone gorge provided shelter for the hunter-gathers who 12,000 years ago moved through a landscape which was gradually changing from tundra to birch and pine forest and would eventually develop into mixed oak forest, with alder, oak, elm and lime. While Creswell is the best known and studied, other gorges in the Magnesian Limestone have caves which were occupied by both people and animals at these early dates, and also later. Human occupation of significance has yet to be demonstrated at Pleasley Vale, but the full potential of this gorge, which appears to be considerably filled, has not been explored. Later human activity on the Magnesian Limestone Ridge is indicated by the stone tools and fabrication debris of hunter-gatherer groups and of the first farmers and settlers of the Neolithic and the Early Bronze Age, which are found on the surfaces of ploughed fields.

The path is at the boundary of the Castle and Lenton and Wollaton East wards. These complaints have been ongoing since September 2019. Following the initial complaints officers carried out site observations and discussed the proposals with the Council’s Rights of Way Officer.
