Members of the Committee and the Public Services Manager attended the Site Visit on the 30 June 2004 and agreed to provide feedback to the Committee at the following meeting. Councillor J Armstrong provided a report with his feedback to the Committee and Members discussed this along with the feedback from the Public Services Manager and Members who attended the site visit and commented as follows:- • The TIC in Keswick was in a good central location with clear signage and a variety of retail displays which included an extensive range of ‘Made in Cumbria’ products to promote the area. • The location of the Cockermouth TIC was not central and it was suggested that visitors to the area may find it difficult to locate due to limited signage. A large map emphasising the Western Lakes and Coast was prominent in the centre but it did not include all of the Allerdale area including some vital routes. • The Workington TIC was in a central location with limited space and combined with the Council Office. Members did not believe that the signage was adequate and a wider variety of products was needed to include a ‘Made in Cumbria’ Brand. Members also discussed the most prominent location for the TIC and an area within the Workington Town Centre Redevelopment was suggested. • The Maryport TIC had recently relocated to the existing Town Hall on one of the main streets in Maryport. A major disadvantage of the location was the poor state of repair of some nearby properties. In addition to this, Page 3 Town and the retail selection was mainly limited to local souvenirs. • The Silloth TIC was situated on the main street of Silloth. The shop front was dedicated as a TIC with good information available and a basic range of retail goods but included no ’Made in Cumbria’ section, which was located in the Discovery Centre. Members discussed the possibility of relocating the TIC into the Discovery Centre (responsibility of Solway Rural Initiative) as this was a superbly restored building in a prime location on the main road leading to Silloth. It was suggested that this would make more financial sense to utilise the premises and staff, reduce operating costs and substantially increase the number of visitors to the Discovery Centre. Members of the Committee had a general discussion regarding whether or not TIC’s should be incorporated into existing council offices or located in the most beneficial areas for both locals and visitors. At the moment, due to limited space the TIC’s operated by the Council and located within existing council buildings restricted the product range available and the opening times. The Committees initial thoughts were that purpose built TIC’s would be more beneficial and successful as the location, signage and product would be chosen with the visitors in mind. The Public Services Manager reported that she had attended a meeting with the Cumbria Tourist Board (CTB) and discussed the Best Practice for TIC’s which included branding, marketing, and the best location. A report had been produced by the CTB. Members were advised that a new Communication and Marketing Officer had been recruited who would be involved in the development of a tourism strategy for the Council. The involvement of Members in developing the Strategy was discussed. The Committee also considered their Project Plan and compiled an interim report on their review of the service provided by the Council at the 3 TIC’s which included the scope, the people and stakeholders contacted and the base line data received so far. RESOLVED – That (a) The Interim report be considered by the Committee at a future meeting (b) The Public Services Manager provide the Cumbria Tourist Report on best practices for TIC’s and provide details of any customer satisfaction surveys that had been undertaken to a future meeting (c) The Portfolio holder be requested to attend the Community Overview and Scrutiny Committee to discuss T.I.C’s (d) Councillors C M Jackson and J Gardner be involved in discussions with staff regarding the development of a Tourism Strategy 57 EXECUTIVE MINUTES The Committee considered the draft minutes of the Executive held on 2 June and 30 June 2004. Page 4 Members expressed concern regarding minute number 34/2004/05 of the Executive Meeting held on 30 June 2004 entitled ‘Managing Residential Development to meet Housing Targets’ . The recommendation of the Executive was: ‘’That Council requested to approve the new Interim Housing Policy for development control purposes with immediate effect and targeted consultation, prior to consideration of its adoption as supplementary planning policy’’. RESOLVED – That (a) The minutes of the Executive held on 2 June 2004 be noted. (b) Minute number 34/2004/05 of the Executive Meeting held on 30 June 2004 entitled ‘Managing Residential Development to meet Housing Targets’ be called in for the following reason:- ‘’The Community Scrutiny Committee would like further clarification on the decision. The new Interim Housing Policy should be examined further to ascertain whether it is valid that new housing should be accepted in Workington, Maryport, Silloth and Aspatria rather than the whole of Allerdale on the limited base that has been accepted. Further consultation should be entered into with the interested parties.’’ 58 WORK PLAN The Committee considered their work plan to date. AGREED - That (a) The Democratic Services Administrator provide a report on the Committees findings of the Decriminalised Parking Enforcement Review at the next meeting of the Committee (b) The interim report on Tourist Information Centres and information requested be considered on 6th August 2004. 59 FORWARD PLAN Councillors were provided with the Forward Plan for the Period 1 July 2004 to 31 October 2004. AGREED – That the contents of the Forward Plan be noted.

  • ALLERDALE DISTRICT WARDS REVIEW 2016 an Initial Submission
    ALLERDALE DISTRICT WARDS REVIEW 2016 An initial submission on behalf of the Labour Group of Allerdale Councillors. A. Methodology for Area allocations The starting point for this submission to the review process is that the Allerdale District is made up of seven Areas, each centred on a town as service centre and its hinterland. These areas were first defined by the County Council as part of its initiation of the “Neighbourhood Forms” concept in the late 1980s and have evolved since into the pattern now used by Allerdale Council for engagement with members and localities, shown in this map: The map was originally based on school catchment areas. Following a review of “natural communities” by the Health service in 2000, it began to be used to define primary care boundaries. Under localism and devolution policy in the 2000s it was also used to define neighbourhood policing areas, community regeneration areas, childrens centre areas, parish council groupings, and planning policy areas, amongst others. Although some organisations, under budget pressures, have resiled from earlier commitments to use these Areas for organisation and service planning, they remain the most appropriate basis for any division of Allerdale into smaller areas. Accordingly it is suggested that these Areas should be the starting point for consideration of ward boundaries – following the pattern of the parliamentary boundary review which uses counties within the Region as its starting point. The first step is therefore to define the quota, making an assumption of 48 members as the size of the Council based a) on the actual electorate in 2016 (a quota of 1576 electors); and b) on the forecast electorate in 2022 as estimated by the Elections Officer at the Council (a quota of 1622 electors).

  • Independent Group
    FAO [email protected] Allerdale Boundary Commission Review Part 2 Submission of the Independent Group Introduction The Independent Group met on Thursday 1st December to consider the proposals tabled by Officers at the Group Leaders' Meeting the preceding Monday 28th November. Being a group not affiliated with any political party, the group's six members main concern is to properly represent the views of their respective electorates specifically in: • Dalton Ward • Broughton St Bridgets Ward • Harrington Workington Ward • All Saints Cockermouth Ward • Keswick Ward • Aspatria Ward In relation to the boundary review process Part 2, its nature is such that members of the group have engaged in general discussion within e.g. local parish councils on the matter, but have not until the week commencing 28th November been in a position to consider the implications both locally or more widely arising from the work of the Officer group which was not made available until that date. The three major Groups in Allerdale – Labour, Conservatives and Independent – have all shared thoughts as the process has advanced over recent weeks, both through the Leaders' Group but also informally between those councillors who have taken the lead within each group for 'number-crunching' and map-making. Much common ground has emerged, but there are of course differences which in large part are probably conditioned by the fact that in most wards political representation tends to be the monopoly of a single party. This in turn both enhances the ability of winning parties to articulate the needs and perceptions of those communities, but simultaneously diminishes their ability to speak with equal authority on the needs and perceptions of communities they have little experience of representing.

To investigate possible methods for improving the effluent to the required standard, United Utilities installed a temporary dosing facility to add hydrogen peroxide to the effluent before it was discharged. This has proven to be successful and permission is now sought for a permanent facility. The temporary facility was permitted development. 2.2 The site is approximately 1 km to the north east of Abbey Town on the road to Newton Arlosh. It is close to the River Waver which feeds into the Solway Estuary. It would be opposite “Knowehill” a complex of farm buildings. 2.3 The current arrangement comprises a securely fenced compound area containing two pumps, a control panel, 3 bunded chemical tanks and associated pipework. The whole site is currently surrounded by an electric fence. This would be replaced with a post and wire stock proof fence.
