  • Leicester City Council Overview & Scrutiny Handbook
    Leicester City Council Overview & Scrutiny Handbook Publication Agreed at Overview Select Committee of 22/09/12 Introduction by Chair of Overview Select Committee I want scrutiny to be as effective as possible in Leicester City Council and this Handbook will help to achieve that. It is designed to help all those involved in scrutiny. To do this we have tried to pull together in one place all of the current information about scrutiny. It contains advice, guidance, and the rules and regulations governing how scrutiny works. For me scrutiny has three main purposes: holding the City Mayor to account, holding the council and other organisations to account and generating ideas and policy. These functions are important in ensuring that the Council is run democratically by involving all members and providing the primary checks and balances on the power of the City Mayor and his cabinet. Scrutiny Commissions will look at the expenditure, administration and policy of the cabinet portfolio they cover. All members should be involved in scrutiny. Members of Scrutiny Committees will involve themselves and contribute to the work of their committee. Executive members will attend, answer questions, explain decisions and policy and the strategy they are pursuing. Officers will attend and be prepared to brief members and answer questions about finance, administration and policy. The spirit of scrutiny should be that of genuine enquiry in our efforts to improve the council and the city for all its citizens. Scrutiny should be conducted without fear of consequences or promise of favour. I hope this handbook will be useful in helping us in our scrutiny work Ross Willmott Chair Overview Select Committee “When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.

  • Leicester's Green Infrastructure Strategy
    LEICESTER GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE STRATEGY 2015-2025 EVIDENCE BASE, ACTIONS AND OPPORTUNITIES 1 | P a g e FOREWORD This framework sets out the strategic vision for our green sites in Leicester and the ways in which they can be created, managed and maintained to provide maximum benefits to the people who live, work or visit Leicester. The actions are supported by an evidence base of data and information which recognise and prioritise key areas where resources can be focussed to develop high quality green infrastructure (GI) into our new and existing communities. By placing the framework within the planning system it is possible to provide the key tools needed to secure these areas and design them to provide multi- functional green space. Improvements to established green space and creating new sites to surround built development will provide an accessible and natural green network. These areas will be capable of supporting a range of functions which include landscaping/public amenity, recreation, flood control, safer access routes, cooler areas to combat predicted climate change and places for wildlife. These functions give rise to a range of environmental and quality of life benefits which include providing attractive and distinctive places to live, work and play; improving public health, facilitating access and encouraging sustainable transport as well as offering an environment to support wildlife. Placing a monetary value on these benefits is difficult, but many have potential to deliver significant economic value by increasing the attractiveness of a neighbourhood for businesses and employers, encouraging tourism and associated revenue, reducing health care costs and maintenance or clean-up costs from flooding.

  • Sustainable Homes for People… Creating a Great Place to Live
    LEICESTER Sustainable homes for people… creating a great place to live MARKETING BROCHURE foreword by LEICESTER CITY MAYOR Ashton Green is seen as the most innovative and sustainable new development in Leicester in more than 30 years and will enable substantial progress towards delivering the 20,000 new homes needed in the City over the next 20 years. Ashton Green will make a significant contribution towards delivering quality new homes in Leicester and raising its profile as the place to do business in the East Midlands. The site has the potential to deliver the highest quality of built environment whilst protecting and enhancing the natural surroundings in this part of the city. In addition to much needed new homes, this major development will bring employment land opportunities with new jobs, economic, regeneration and social benefits for the wider community. Leicester City Council will retain influence and direction over the future development as land owner and local planning authority to ensure the long term delivery of the Ashton Green vision of a sustainable new community. With an outline planning permission, infrastructure delivery plan and phasing strategy already in place, the Council is now bringing the site forward for development. Expressions of interest are being invited from developers with the commitment to bring forward a first parcel of high quality new homes from early 2015 and further commercial development opportunities will follow later. This is a unique, exciting and challenging development opportunity and we very much look forward to working with the most creative and innovative partners within the development industry to bring forward the Ashton Green vision.
