The Boundary Committee for England is a committee of the Electoral Commission, an independent body set up by Parliament under the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000. It is responsible for conducting reviews as directed by the Electoral Commission or the Secretary of State. Members of the Committee are: Pamela Gordon (Chair) Robin Gray Joan Jones CBE Ann M. Kelly Professor Colin Mellors Director: Archie Gall When conducting reviews our aim is to ensure that the number of electors represented by each councillor in an area is as nearly as possible the same, taking into account local circumstances. We can recommend changes to ward boundaries, the number of councillors and ward names. We can also recommend changes to the electoral arrangements of parish and town councils. 5 6 Executive summary The Boundary Committee for England is the body responsible for conducting electoral reviews of local authorities. A further electoral review of Crewe & Nantwich is being undertaken to provide improved levels of electoral equality across the borough. It aims to ensure that the number of voters represented by each borough councillor is approximately the same. The Electoral Commission directed the Boundary Committee for England to undertake this review on 12 May 2005. Current electoral arrangements Under the existing arrangements, seven of the existing 27 wards currently have more than 10% more electors than the borough average. By 2009 two wards would have more than 30% more electors than the borough average. Englesea ward would have 42% more electors and Wybunbury ward would have 75% more electors than the borough average. This review will be conducted in four stages: Stage Stage starts Description One 6 September 2005 Submission of proposals to us Two 13 December 2005 Our analysis and deliberation Three 7 November 2006 Publication of draft recommendations and consultation on them Four 13 February 2007 Analysis of submissions received and formulation of final recommendations Submissions received During Stage One we received five submissions. Crewe & Nantwich Borough Council and Crewe & Nantwich Conservative Group put forward proposals for the whole borough. Nantwich Independent Group supported the Conservative Group’s proposals. The Liberal Democrat Group supported the Borough Council’s proposals. We also received a submission from Hankelow Parish Council. Analysis and draft recommendations Electorate figures The Borough Council is predicting electorate growth of 6% over five years from 2004. This will be spread across the borough. We note the methodology used to forecast the electorate in 2009 follows the model used by Cheshire County Council Research and Intelligence Unit. We consider the estimate provided to be the best available. Council size Crewe & Nantwich Borough Council proposed an increase in council size from 56 to 57 councillors, arguing that the new political management structure and an increased 7 contribution to Local Strategic Partnerships and increased community leadership role take up a lot of the members’ time. The Conservative Group based its borough-wide scheme on a council size of 56 but did not put forward any evidence in support of its proposed council size. Therefore, on the basis of the evidence put forward by the Borough Council, we recommend adopting a council size of 57. General analysis The Borough Council proposed boundaries based on 26 wards. In the rural area of the borough we are adopting the Borough Council’s proposals without amendment. In Nantwich we also recommend adopting the Borough Council’s proposals, while also asking for views on options for improving the boundaries and access within the town, specifically in the area to the north of Hospital Street. In Crewe we are adopting the Borough Council’s proposed wards with three amendments to improve electoral equality and strengthen ward boundaries, affecting St John’s, St Mary’s, Willaston, Wistaston Green and Valley wards. We are also inviting further views on the warding of the centre of Crewe around the existing Coppenhall, Delamere and Grosvenor wards. We are recommending a mixture of single-member, two-member and three- member wards. What happens next? There will now be a consultation period, during which we encourage comments on our draft recommendations on future electoral arrangements for Crewe & Nantwich contained in this report. We welcome views from all parts of the community and believe that the more feedback we receive, based on clear evidence, the better informed we will be in forming our final recommendations. We will take into account all submissions received by 12 February 2007. Any received after this date may not be taken into account. We have not finalised our conclusions on the electoral arrangements for Crewe & Nantwich and welcome comments from interested parties. In particular, we found our decisions regarding the centre of Crewe and the boundaries within Nantwich to involve difficult judgements, considering the lack of strong evidence provided. We would particularly welcome local views, backed up by demonstrable evidence, during Stage Three. We will consider all the evidence submitted to us during the consultation period before preparing our final recommendations.

  • Police Report for the Parish Councils of Haslington, Crewe Green and Barthomley
    Police Report for the Parish Councils of Haslington, Crewe Green and Barthomley 1st December 2020- 31st December 2020 These councils have been grouped together due to their geographical proximity and size. The Dingle Primary School- On 4/12 there was a bomb hoax at the school. A call was made saying a bomb was on site but it was quickly ascertained by police that it was a hoax and there was no risk to the school. The offender has been identified and is currently being dealt with by PC Martin and PCSO Jolley for the specific offence of a Bomb Hoax contrary to Section 51 Criminal Law Act 1977. The offender is a juvenile who is being bullied and this has played into the incident. In addition to the offender being dealt with, the High School where the other involved parties attend and their parents will be spoken to and dealt with. An update will hopefully be available for the Parish Council around February 2021. Old Park Road, Crewe Green- Caller has reported that he has seen four suspicious males around his property and come out to find the gate has been damaged. There appears no reason for this. There is CCTV that is currently being reviewed by the attending officer to see if there are any lines of enquiry. Stephen Taylor- On 6/10 police received a report of a male in Haslington making sexual remarks to some minors. They had managed to capture him momentarily on video and he was identified by PCSO Jolley and PCSO Barlow as a registered sex offender.

    Application No: 12/1349N Location: HUNSTERSON FISHERIES, LAND OFF BIRCHALL MOSS LANE, HUNSTERSON, NANTWICH, CHESHIRE, CW5 7PH Proposal: Proposed Fishermans Retreat Building Applicant: MR F STRICKLAND Expiry Date: 27-Jun-2012 SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: APPROVE subject to conditions Main issues: • The principle of the development • The impact of the design • The impact upon neighbouring amenity • The impact upon protected species REASON FOR REFERRAL Councillor J. Clowes has called in this application to Southern Planning Committee for the following reasons: • ‘Inappropriate and unsustainable intensification of activity on agricultural land in the open countryside. • Inappropriate size, structure and materials of the proposed building. • Consequent visual intrusion on a green field site in the open countryside. • Hazardous entry and exit to and from the site on Bridgemere Lane. • Inadequate preparation in terms of siting and management of proposed septic tank foul drainage system. • Current informal ‘presumptive’ car parking arrangements are inadequate for the numbers of vehicles proposed in this application.’ DESCRIPTION OF SITE AND CONTEXT The application site relates to land to the south of Bridgemere Lane, Hunsterson, Nantwich within the Open Countryside. The land relates to a section of open paddock adjacent to a large fishing pond set approximately 150 metres to the south of the road. Currently on site is an unauthorised touring caravan which appears to be being used as a makeshift ‘fisherman’s hut’. DETAILS OF PROPOSAL Revised plans have been submitted for the erection of a purpose built fisherman’s hut. The proposed unit would measure approximately 6.6 metres in length, 5 metres in width and would have a pitched roof approximately 4.1 metres in height from ground floor level.

  • Audlem Doddington Wybunbury Parish Profile
    THE BENEFICE OF AUDLEM, DODDINGTON AND WYBUNBURY. The benefice was created in February 2010. Prior to that Doddington and Wybunbury were linked but Audlem was a single parish church. On the retirement of the incumbent at Wybunbury and Doddington, the benefice was created with the in situ incumbent for Audlem being appointed Vicar to the 3 churches. Since this time, the churches have retained their own identities, services and PCC’s but also work well together. People do support events at each of the churches. 2 Lay Readers work across all 3 churches, one retired priest supports services in Audlem, the other is at Doddington most weeks with occasional services in Wybunbury. It is located near to main line train services in Crewe, close to junction 16 of the M6. What we offer to our new incumbent • welcoming and supportive congregations and communities ● our prayerful support and encouragement ● our respect for your home life, your prayer life and encouragement and support to take holidays and regular time off each week ● the support of 2 retired Priests on a regular basis, 2 Lay Readers, strong PCC’s and experienced Church Wardens.
