Bentons 47 Nottingham Street, Melton Mowbray, LE13 1NN 01664 563892 LOCATION Floor Plans Bentons 47 Nottingham Street, Melton Mowbray, LE13 1NN 01664 563892 Energy LOCATION Performance Certificate Below is the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) for Princes Road Energy Performance Certificates illustrate the energy efficiency of homes on a scale from A to G. Those in Band A are the most efficient, and will usually have the lowest fuel bills. The same scale is used to define the impact of a property on the environment. Higher rated homes will usually have less impact through carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. To put this in perspective, the average property in the UK is in band D or E for both ratings. The Certificate also makes energy saving recommendations that may help reduce future energy bills. In some cases, these can be financed under the Government's Green Deal. In effect, Green Deal offers UK home-owners a loan, which is repaid through regular electricity bills. The main loan condition (the "Golden Rule") is that the amount saved each year on energy bills should be more than the cost of annual loan repayments. Note that the loan stays with the house when owners move on.

You may want to investigate how this is likely to affect you if you decide to move. There are nearly 400 local authorities in England, with five different types of local government structure. These can be broadly divided into single-tier and two-tier authorities. Single-tier authorities are Metropolitan Authorities, London Boroughs and Unitary or Shire Authorities. Two-tier authorities have both a County Council, and a District Council or City Council. There are also around 10,000 parish and town councils, effectively creating an additional tier in some areas - mostly, but not exclusively, in rural areas. The National Association of Local Councils (NALC) represents and works on behalf of these community councils and is a useful contact point.

    Rutland and Melton Labour Party 16 July 2015 The Review Officer (Leicestershire) Local Government Boundary Commission for England 14th Floor Millbank Tower Millbank London SW1P 4QP Dear Sir Leicestershire County Council Boundaries in the Borough of Melton Mowbray I write on behalf of the Rutland and Melton Constituency Labour Party. We have serious concerns about the proposals of Leicestershire County Council as they affect Melton Town and adjacent rural communities. It is easy to be critical but we have put considerable effort into working up a positive alternative that: Ensures, as far as reasonably possible, equality of representation, keeping within the Local Boundary Commission’s tolerance of 10% Recognises the interests, identities and needs of rural and urban communities, including the need for the recognisable community of Melton Town to be suitably represented Promotes effective and convenient local government by creating divisions that are an appropriate size so as to be easily manageable in terms of representation, and have clear boundaries. 1. Proposals a. Melton Town to have two Divisions: Melton East with 10,5101 voters (variance +5.33%) Melton West with 10,384 voters (variance +4.65%) b. Rural areas to have two divisions: Asfordby with 9,319 voters (variance -6.35%) Belvoir with 9,590 voters (variance -3.63%) 2. Urban & Rural Community Interests We set out to address the importance of the diverse interests and community identities of the town and villages across the Borough of Melton Mowbray. Melton Town does not have a Town Council and depends upon its Borough and County elected representatives to consider its particular interests, opportunities and challenges.
