The Plan comprises this Written Statement and the Proposals Map. The Local Plan can also be obtained from the Council’s website: www.blackpool.gov.uk. The Council would like to thank everyone who has made representations at any stage of the process and shown an interest in Blackpool’s future development. The Blackpool Local Plan is currently being replaced by the new Local Development Framework. Blackpool Council applied to save the vast majority of the Local Plan policies. The Government Office for the North West, on behalf of the Secretary of State, has issued a direction confirming which Local Plan policies will be retained and used when determining planning applications. The policies which expired as of 9 June 2009 were: RR3, RR6, HN1 (Note: Policy RR5 was deleted on 7 April 2008) Building a better community for all Chapter 1: Introduction and Strategy 1 Chapter 2: Reshaping the Resort 7 Chapter 3: Establishing a Thriving Sub-Regional Centre 31 Chapter 4: Lifting Quality in the Built Environment 45 Chapter 5: Homes for Every Need 65 Chapter 6: Balanced and Healthy Communities 81 Chapter 7: Diversifying the Local Economy 109 Chapter 8: Conserving the Natural Environment 117 Chapter 9: Accessibility and Safe Journeys for All 129 Chapter 10: Planning Obligations 141 Contents Appendices Appendix A 145 Appendix B 147 Building a better community for all 1: Introduction Purpose of the Plan emerging vision for the future of the town centre and resort areas developed through 1.1 Blackpool is at a pivotal point in the New Horizons Masterplan.

    United Utilities Report on the flooding of 22nd / 23rd November 2017 Date : August 2018 Page | 1 1.0 Background to the flooding Event 22nd – 23rd November 2017 Rainfall There had been considerable rainfall, leading up to the significant rainfall on the Wednesday evening, which ultimately led to the flooding in the north Blackpool and Wyre areas. The weather front first hit the Fylde coast, but also spread northwards with similar rainfall also being experienced in the Lancaster patch, to the north of the Blackpool / Fleetwood area. In order to understand the extent of the rainfall, there is a need to look at a 48 hour period from Tuesday 21st November through to the early hours of Thursday 23rd November 2018. A rainfall event that took until Sunday 26th November, to drain down both the main Fylde Tunnel system, and the local watercourse systems on the northern Fylde Coast Peninsula. Analysis of local raingauge information highlighted that the the greatest amount of rainfall, fell over the northwestern Blackpool / Wyre area, with a slightly lower rainfall event in the southern areas of Blackpool. The Fleetwood raingauge information proved to be the most representative of the impact upon these northern Fylde Coast area.

  • My Mother Found Me in Alice Springs
    THE MAN WHO EXPLODED WITH FIRE AND GRACE Wally McArthur 22 February 2019 A top athlete denied a chance to compete for Olympic Gold, Wally McArthur lived at “The Bungalow” in Alice Springs before being evacuated to NSW during WW2. After the war he went to St Francis House in Adelaide, became a rugby star in England and was a member of the Aboriginal rugby league team of the century. Wally McArthur was a rising sprinting champion in the late 1940s and early 1950s. Wally McArthur was an inspiration. His younger cousin John Moriarty, who was taken from the same Borroloola area of the Northern Territory, has said, “He could have been one of the world’s great athletes. He just exploded with fire and grace.” “He was a leader. He looked after us younger kids. He was such a humble compassionate person. Wally set a standard for us, as to what could be achieved in sport.” Born in 1933 McArthur’s father was a policeman named Langdon, but the authorities, who registered many of these births, gave him the name of McArthur, after the river at Borroloola. McArthur recalled his removal from his family in a 1998 interview with John Pilger, “It was a government car, because only the government had cars at that time. The driver put me in the front seat with him and he drove around while I waved at my family. I have never seen them since, you know. They were sitting around the camp fire. They didn't understand what was happening.” In a 1999 interview with Peter Hackett for The Advertiser McArthur said, “I don’t feel angry about it.

  • (Chil) Statement of Intent for ECO Flexible Eligibility Date Of
    Cosy Homes in Lancashire (CHiL) Statement of Intent for ECO Flexible Eligibility Date of Publication 26 November 2020 Version Number CHiL Version 9 1. Introduction 1.1. Cosy Homes in Lancashire (CHiL) is a partnership of the 12 district and two unitary councils in Lancashire as well as the County Council under which domestic energy efficiency schemes are delivered pan-Lancashire. CHiL projects seek to maximise government Energy Company Obligation (ECO) and other grant opportunities that are available for energy efficiency and heating measures for Lancashire residents. In particular CHiL looks to support those households in fuel poverty and vulnerable to the effects of living in a cold home but also aims to provide an offer to all households, not just those in fuel poverty. 1.2. This Statement of Intent has been developed to enable CHiL to participate in ECO flexible eligibility. It sets out the criteria participating Lancashire authorities will use in making declarations under Flexible Eligibility and the delivery arrangements in place, in line with the guidance to local authorities issued by the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial strategy (BEIS). 1.3. When the local Authority makes a declaration on behalf of a resident it is not a guarantee that a measure will be installed. The final decision will rest with the energy suppliers or their agents/contractors who will take into account a number of factors including the savings that can be achieved by the resident as well as whether they have already reached their target. 1.4. Where properties are rented from private sector landlords the property must have a current EPC rating of E or above in order to potentially qualify for a wider range of ECO measures.
