  • Electoral Review of Rochdale Borough Council Submission on Council Size

    Electoral Review of Rochdale Borough Council Submission on Council Size

    Electoral Review of Rochdale__________________________________________________________ Electoral Review of Rochdale Borough Council Submission on Council Size Introduction 1. The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) has informed Rochdale Borough Council of its decision to carry out an Electoral Review of the Council size (number of elected Councillors) and the number of wards and ward boundaries for the Council. 1.1 Rochdale Council has not had an electoral review since 2003. It will have been 19 years since the current boundaries were set by the time this review’s recommendations are in place. The LGBCE believes this is a reasonable interpretation of Section 56 of the Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009. 1.2 This review began in July 2019; any changes that are made in regards to council size and ward boundaries will come into effect for the local government elections in May 2022. 1.3 Section 56 states that electoral arrangements of a principal local authority’s area should be reviewed ‘from time to time’. The LGBCE will be reviewing all Greater Manchester boroughs that haven’t had a review since the programme began in the early 2000s. 1.4 At present there are wards with electoral imbalances across the borough of Rochdale; therefore providing an unfair representation at local government elections. In two wards the size of the electorate has a variance of greater than +/- 10% in comparison to the average (Kingsway 11% and West Middleton 14%) 1.5 This document is Rochdale Borough Council’s council size submission, which provides the LGBCE with the Council’s view on the appropriate council size and supporting evidence across the following three broad areas (as stated in the LGBCE guidance on council size for local authority elected members and staff): Governance and decision making – determining the role of councillors in decision making, and how work and responsibilities are distributed across the Council.

    Council Questions - Public Greater Manchester Spatial Framework 25 November 2020

    COUNCIL QUESTIONS - PUBLIC GREATER MANCHESTER SPATIAL FRAMEWORK 25 NOVEMBER 2020 Responses 1 - H LEES Question: The traffic of Heywood Old Road at the moment at peak times is dreadful. My concern is that more houses and the proposed school (Edgar Wood Academy) will increase the amount of traffic and it will become gridlocked. There is no way of widening the road - it is crazy to think that you are considering making more traffic. Also the speed that people drive on the road is an accident waiting to happen. We have already got more houses in our area on Langley Lane - we have lost so much green area. You are ruining the landscape!!!! Response: Detailed transport evidence has been carried out as part of the proposed allocation (this is known as a Locality Assessment). This looks at the site’s potential impacts on both the local and strategic road network, as well as identifying possible forms of mitigation. The proposed policy wording for the proposed allocation at Simister and Bowlee has been informed by the Locality Assessment and requires mitigation measures to be implemented to enable the proposed level of development to be accommodated. This will include junction improvements to provide additional capacity and more free flowing traffic. The proposed policy wording supporting the allocation at Simister and Bowlee states that development must be in accordance with a comprehensive masterplan that has been previously approved by the Council and must facilitate the required supporting transport services and infrastructure including traffic restrictions on Simister Lane to prevent this route from being a form of access/egress to and from the allocation.

Those who share their views can be assured that we will use these to help develop and influence health and social care within the borough. As we start to work differently with all staff working from home for their safety and the safety of others, we are making much more use of technology, but also ensuring that those who are not able to use this are not forgotten. As Chair I want to thank our dedicated staff and volunteers for all their help and support over the past year, whether that has been as a Board member, an Enter & View representative, admin support in the office or helping at our events in the community. We have welcomed three new Board members this year, Rosemary Nunwick, Heather Harrisson and David Bradshaw as well as saying goodbye to Racheal Law and Taufeeq Rauf. As we move forward through 2020 it is inevitable that change will happen but, as Healthwatch Rochdale, we will work to make a difference for the residents of the borough in as positive a manner as possible.
