  • Proposals for West Berkshire Council. Proposed Wards for Tilehurst, Pangbourne and Purley
    Local Government Boundary Commission for England – proposals for West Berkshire Council. Proposed Wards for Tilehurst, Pangbourne and Purley. This response to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England proposals for the restructuring of the wards of West Berkshire Council, is from the West Berkshire Council members for Pangbourne, Purley on Thames and Tilehurst Westwood wards. These are respectively, Pamela Bale, Tim Metcalfe, Rick Jones and Laszlo Zverko. The response is also supported by the members for Tilehurst Birch Copse and Tilehurst Calcot wards. This represents five current wards with 10 members, to be reduced to four wards and eight members in most proposals. The WBC submission to the Commission suggested that Tilehurst comprised three two‐member wards, and that Pangbourne and Purley were combined, also in a two‐member ward (including Sulham & Tidmarsh). The Commission’s own report stated that this arrangement had good electoral quality, but felt that the community boundaries were poor and somewhat arbitrary, even though they are the current Parish boundaries. As a result of this view, the most recent Commission report proposes a radically different division for Purley, Pangbourne, and the central and north areas of Tilehurst. This separates Purley and Pangbourne based upon little community connection, enlarges the central Tilehurst ward area, and because that makes the rest of Tilehurst too small, combines that with Purley. This results in four wards of 1, 3, 2, 2 members. A formal response from WBC most recently suggested that the proposed Tilehurst & Purley Ward be split, though we do not favour that, and commentary in the WBC response should indicate that the case is marginal at best.

  • Land at Calcot Golf Course, Calcot, West Berkshire
    Land at Calcot Golf Course, Calcot, West Berkshire Representations to West Berkshire LDF Consultation - Options for the Future: West Berkshire Core Strategy (April 2009) Client: Calcot Park Golf Club Issued: 2nd July 2009 Prepared by: Broadway Malyan Paragraph 3.1 West Berkshire Core Strategy Spatial Vision Support or object Support Reasons for support or objection We agree that development should be concentrated in settlements with a range of infrastructure and services. Calcot is one example of a settlement which has land available for development within the settlement boundary that would achieve the aims of sustainable development. Changes being sought to resolve any objection None Policy CS2 Location of Development Support or object Support Reasons for support or objection We support the principles of locating development within/adjacent to settlements and sustainable transport modes. Our client has two sites at Calcot Golf Course; one west of New Lane Hill and one east of West Drive. Both sites are within the settlement boundary and close to public transport routes. Changes being sought to resolve any objection None Policy CS3 District Settlement Hierarchy Support or object Support Reasons for support or objection We support that the Eastern Urban Area (Calcot, Purley on Thames and Tilehurst) has been identified as one of the areas which will be the main focus of development within the District. However, we consider the Council should reassess the important open space designation as our client’s site at Calcot Golf Course, which is designated as important open space, is within the settlement boundary at Calcot and is arguably in more of a sustainable location than other sites outside of the settlement boundary in the Eastern Urban Area.
