    Local Government Boundary Commission For England Report No. Principal Area Boundary Review DISTRICT OF CHESTER LE STREET; CITY OF DURHAM LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOUNDARY COMMISSION fc'Oll ENGLAND REPORT NO. LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOUNDARY COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND CHAIRMAN Mr G J Ellerton CMC MBE DEPUTY CHAIRMAN Mr J G Powell FRIGS FSVA MEMBERS Lady Ackner Mr T Brockbank DL Professor G E Cherry Mi- K J L Newell Mr B Scholes OBE THE RT. HON. PATRICK JENKIN MP SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT BACKGROUND 1. In a letter dated 20 March 198! the Chester-le-Street District Council invited us to make proposals for certain changes to the boundary of their district with the district of the City of Durham. The suggestion for changes had arisen during the course of the review by the District Council of the parish pattern in their area and involved the parishes of Plawsworth and Sacriston. Durham City Council had not at that stage completed their own parish review, but it was clear that the changes concerned were not supported by them or by the councils of the three parishes in their district which would be involved - Framwellgate Moor, Kimblesworth and Witton Gilbert. We decided to defer action on the matter until we had received Durham City Council's parish review report. ?., In submitting their report in August 1982 Durham City Council opposed all the district boundary changes suggested by Chester-le-Street District Council; Kimblesworth Parish Council wrote to us separately to emphasise their opposition to the ones affecting then. The City Council sent us a copy of a letter from the Durham County Council, however, which said, in relation to the possibility of changes in th^ Kimblesworth Parish boundary, that the Council considered that the villages of Kimblesworth and Nettlesworth (the latter currently in Plawsworth Parish, Chester-le-Street) should be treated as one settlement and that future development should be in relation to a single local plan.

  • Cultural Activity Impact Report
    Cabinet 15 March 2017 Cultural Activity Impact Report Report of Corporate Management Team Ian Thompson, Corporate Director of Regeneration and Local Services Councillor Neil Foster, Cabinet Portfolio Holder for Culture, Regeneration and Economic Development Purpose of the Report 1 The purpose of this report is to provide Members with an update on the County’s Cultural Programme and offer further insight into the value and impact of this vibrant and growing area which forms part of the Council’s economic planning. The report reflects on the recent achievements of the county wide programme and seeks support for future cultural activity. Background 2 The County’s cultural assets and creative output continue to grow. They now not only attract considerable visitors and inward investment but enhance the Council’s and County’s reputation on a local, regional, national and international level, with residents, visitors and investors alike. This continued growth has been the result of a number of factors including public, private and third sector’s collective ambition and investment in the value and impact of cultural activity. Growth through the Cultural sector continues to be part of the Council’s planning for regeneration and economic development. 3 For the County Council this has been through a renewed and supported ambition for culture since LGR that has grown out of the City of Culture ambition of 2009. This has seen the development of a thriving and vibrant programme delivered directly through the Council’s own programmes, as well as supporting, both financially and creatively, the wider sector to flourish and continue to build and reimagine the County’s cultural offer in a profound way.
