  • Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough
    1 Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough Understanding canopy cover to better plan and manage our urban trees 2 Foreword Introducing a world-first for Wales is a great pleasure, particularly as it relates to greater knowledge about the hugely valuable woodland and tree resource in our towns and cities. We are the first country in the world to have undertaken a country-wide urban canopy cover survey. The resulting evidence base set out in this supplementary county specific study for Bridgend County Borough will help all of us - from community tree interest groups to urban planners and decision-makers in local Emyr Roberts Diane McCrea authorities and our national government - to understand what we need to do to safeguard this powerful and versatile natural asset. Trees are an essential component of our urban ecosystems, delivering a range of services to help sustain life, promote well-being, and support economic benefits. They make our towns and cities more attractive to live in - encouraging inward investment, improving the energy efficiency of buildings – as well as removing air borne pollutants and connecting people with nature. They can also mitigate the extremes of climate change, helping to reduce storm water run-off and the urban heat island. Natural Resources Wales is committed to working with colleagues in the Welsh Government and in public, third and private sector organisations throughout Wales, to build on this work and promote a strategic approach to managing our existing urban trees, and to planting more where they will

  • Garw Valley Community Sports Hubs – Feasibility Study
    GARW VALLEY COMMUNITY SPORTS HUBS – FEASIBILITY STUDY A REPORT BY JANUARY 2018 CONTENTS Page Section 1 – Introduction and Background 1 Section 2 – Need Analysis 3 Section 3 – Community Hub Options and Financial 12 Projections Section 4 – Conclusions and Way Forward 27 APPENDICES Appendix A – Market Segmentation Appendix B – Facility Audit Appendix C – Facility Analysis Appendix D – Management Options Appendix E – Financial Projections Appendix F – Stakeholder Workshop Attendees Appendix G – Project Plan SECTION 1 – INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Introduction 1.1 Bridgend County Borough Council (the Council) as lead body for Reach (the Rural Development Programme for Bridgend) is currently seeking to explore the potential for the development of one or more sports based community sports hubs in the Garw Valley. 1.2 As a result RPT Consulting has been appointed to develop a feasibility study for community sports hubs based in the Garw Valley, which will seek to address the needs of the local population and key stakeholders. Background 1.3 Currently in the Garw Valley as with all other areas in Bridgend, sports and community groups are considering the transfer of sports and community venues and assets from the Council, through the Community Asset Transfer (CAT) process. 1.4 Some of the assets within the Garw Valley are in a poor state of repair and well below an acceptable standard. The cost of repairing and maintaining these assets is beyond the reach of many of the sport and community groups and therefore a potential solution is being sought to ensure that sporting and community activities are not lost. 1.5 To support the CAT process, Reach has already produced a ‘Rural Community Asset Transfer Toolkit’ which provides groups with a step by step guide to asset transfer and also commissioned a report ‘Review of Sustainable Community Venues and Assets in Bridgend County Borough’, which provides a detailed understanding of the issues faced by groups who both currently are or are considering managing/owning/leasing community facilities.

  • Local Housing Market Assessment 2019/2020
    BRIDGEND COUNTY BOROUGH COUNCIL REPORT TO DEVELOPMENT CONTROL COMMITTEE BY GROUP MANAGER PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT SERVICES 12 SEPTEMBER 2019 LOCAL HOUSING MARKET ASSESSMENT 2019/2020 1. Purpose of the Report 1.1 The purpose of this report is to inform the Development Control Committee of the purpose, status and findings of the Local Housing Market Assessment (LHMA), which updates the last LHMA conducted in 2012 (attached as Appendix 1). 2. Connection to Corporate Improvement Objectives/Other Corporate Priorities 2.1 The future Replacement LDP will be required to express in land-use terms the wellbeing objectives and priorities of the Bridgend Public Services Board’s Well-being Plan and the updated LHMA will form a significant element of the Replacement LDP’s evidence base in this respect. Residential site allocations will be informed by the need identified in the LHMA to ensure a valuable contribution can be made to addressing housing need geographically. Detailed policies for affordable housing will also be developed based on the housing need identified in the LHMA (along with viability assessments) to determine the appropriate level of supply that can be secured through the planning system, via thresholds and proportions. 2.2 The findings of this Assessment can therefore also be used to support delivery of all three Corporate Plan Priorities - supporting a successful economy, helping people to become more self-reliant and the smarter use of resources. The evidence contained within the LHMA will play an important role in securing developer contributions to provide integrated affordable housing within new developments to foster sustainable, mixed tenure communities.
