  • AVDC Sub Groups Local Lettings Policy
    AVDC local lettings policy Scheme details Development/Estate name Any general need housing to which AVDC has nomination rights (excluding Rural Exception Schemes). RSL Any Local Lettings Policy – 15 May 2014 Commencement Date End Date To be reviewed in May 2015 Total number of properties in N/a estate/development Number of properties subject to proposed 50% of new build properties Local Lettings Policy 25% of re let properties Property type and number of beds and Nos. of Supported Rented Intermediate persons units Housing General need, re-let properties 25% of N/a Y N total General need, new build properties 50% of N/a Y N total Justification for local lettings policy Choice based lettings means that qualifying applicants are able to choose to express interest in any properties which become available and are the appropriate size and match their needs. Applicants who express interest in properties are then prioritised by their level of housing need (Bands A- D) and then how long they have been on the Housing Register. No consideration has previously been given to where in the District the applicant is from or where the property is located. Following previous direction from Members at Environment and Living Scrutiny Committee officers developed a scheme which was subsequently approved at cabinet and council. This scheme divides Aylesbury Vale into four ‘sub groups’ and allows some extra preference to be given to applicants with a connection to their local community. For the purposes of this local lettings policy, Aylesbury Vale is split into four groups, (Greater Aylesbury, North, South West and South East) which are broadly consistent with current LAF (local area forum) areas.

  • Aylesbury Community Board- 17Th November 2020
    Aylesbury Community Board- 17th November 2020 Agenda Item 6: Community Matters 3 questions were received ahead of the Community Board meeting- the questions & responses can be found below: 1. Question, submitted by Aylesbury Resident: ‘In Aylesbury we have seen a huge increase in serious crime committed by the youth and drastic decrease in youth services (apprenticeship, youth enterprise and youth clubs). These two factors are high correlated, what roadmap does the council to deal with these issues?’ Response provided by Buckinghamshire Family Support Service Team: In Bucks we are fortunate that we have managed to hold on to our Youth Service where many Local Authorities across the country haven’t been so lucky. Despite the decrease in the size of the service we are still able to provide a host of support to young people across the county. We have recently reviewed our Youth Work Offer for Bucks which includes; • One-One Support- A series of weekly one to one sessions with a young person that are targeted to address specific, identified needs. The length of the intervention is dependent on the support required. An average intervention would be 8 sessions, but this can be extended dependent on engagement and level of need. Young people can be referred to the service for this support. • Targeted Group Work- We now have Family Centres across Bucks, of which 3 are in Aylesbury; Berryfields, Southcourt and Elmhurst. Small group work programmes are provided of six to eight weeks for young people around specific topics/needs. These topics include: ➢ Confidence and Self-esteem ➢ Stress, Anxiety and Low Mood ➢ Transitions (to secondary school) ➢ School Engagement ➢ Employability ➢ Risk Taking behaviours • Weekly Drop Ins- Weekly Youth Drop-In available in Aylesbury at Southcourt Family Centre Thursdays 3:30pm – 5:30pm where young people can access information, advice and guidance on a variety of issues.

    Aylesbury Vale Councillor Update Economic Profile of Southcourt Ward April 2014 Produced by Buckinghamshire Business First’s research department P a g e | 2 1.0 Introduction Southcourt is home to 6,912 people and provides 900 jobs in 92 businesses. Of these businesses, 24 (26.1 per cent) are Buckinghamshire Business First members. There were 3,084 employed people aged 16-74 living in Southcourt ward at the 2011 Census, 633 more than the 2,451 recorded in 2001. Over that period the working age population rose 861 to 4,436 while the total population rose 1062 to 6,912. The number of households rose by 305 (13.9 per cent) to 2,506. This is a significant percentage increase and places the ward 7th out of all wards in Aylesbury Vale in terms of growth in household numbers. The large increase in number of residents in the ward accounts for this substantial increase in households over the 10 year period. The largest companies in Southcourt include: Chiltern Railways; Oak Green School; Aylesbury College; Pebble Brook School Dayboarding; Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School; Buckinghamshire University Technical College; and Ashmead Combined School. There are 143 Southcourt, representing 3.5 per cent of working age residents, including 30 claimants aged 18-24 and 45 who have been claiming for more than six months.

  • Church of the Good Shepherd, Aylesbury Parish Profile 'To Know God and to Make Him Known'
    Church of the Good Shepherd, Aylesbury Parish Profile ‘To Know God and to Make Him Known’ August 2016 – Final edition Welcome to our parish profile. The Church of the Good Shepherd is 60 years old. A lot has happened in that time and we thank God for His faithfulness and provision. We are looking forward to working with our new minister as he or she joins with us to help build up our mission initiatives for the people of Southcourt and Walton Court. We hope this information will help you in making decisions for the future – please do call or visit us if you want to know more! Wes Atkinson, Pastoral Assistant (with wife, Jackie) The Good Shepherd Church family is a mixed bunch of people, some of us well grounded in the Christian faith, all keen to develop our faith and knowledge of the Bible. Over the years we have shared joys and shed many tears. The congregation has a particular welcome for vulnerable people. From the 1950s to the 1970s a pioneer generation built and established a thriving congregation with the support of Holy Trinity, Aylesbury. There is still a handful of worshippers from this time and the essential spirit for mission remains. Through the 1980s and on into the early part of this century, a second generation of worshippers grounded themselves in the church, raised families and got on with living out their faith. There were singing groups, parish weekends, visits to Spring Harvest, a church drama group and many other community activities. In particular CGS found a calling as a ‘mustard tree’ church to welcome vulnerable people.

    EXCAVATIONS AT THE HAMLET IN BEDGROVE, AYLESBURY 1964-6 ALISON MACDONALD AND CHRISTOPHER GOWING Excavation of a house platform and part of a hollow way yielded information on a medieval settlement. Bedgrove is situated about 1.5 miles from the centre ofAylesbury and lay, until 1958, in the parish of Weston Turville (Fig. 1). Three seasons of work from 1964-6 revealed an extensive area of flint cobbling, traces of three buildings and an oven. An earlier medieval phase of occupation was represented by a pit sealed by the cobbling, containing twelfth-century pottery. The majority of sherds from the layer of cobbles and above, however, can be dated from the late twelfth century to early fourteenth century. Documentary evidence confirms that this was the time when the settlement was flourishing. Pottery from the site also showed a Roman presence in the area, and indicated the Late Saxon origins of the settlement. Introduction hollow way (65 VIII) can be seen stretching The site of the hamlet (NGR SP 839127) was westwards from the main house platform. identified on the ground by earthworks and a scatter of stones in the area north of Bedgrove Subsequent to the extension of Bedgrove Farm (Fig. 2).

  • Southcourt Policy Technical Advice Note
    Aylesbury Vale District Council SOUTHCOURT POLICY TECHNICAL ADVICE NOTE September 2005 Blank sheet CONTENTS 1. INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE OF NOTE 2. HISTORY OF SOUTHCOURT 3. ASSESSMENT OF CHARACTER 4. CURRENT POLICY CONTEXT FOR SOUTHCOURT 5. DEVELOPMENT GUIDANCE - APPLICATION OF POLICY 6. APPENDIX A – RELEVANT NATIONAL & LOCAL PLAN DOCUMENTS Blank sheet 1.0 INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE OF NOTE 1.1 Southcourt is a large residential estate built by the Aylesbury Borough Council, started in the early 1920s and completed in the 1950s. It is located immediately to the south of the town centre on the opposite side of the railway line. 1.2 This advice note is published to clarify the application of Local Plan policy for Southcourt estate, in response to concerns that the character of the area is being adversely affected by development pressures for new dwellings, substantial extensions to existing dwellings, and conversions of existing houses into flats. Previous developments of this nature have led to the closing of the space between dwellings, loss of front gardens to parking, and the loss of hedgerows and trees, all leading to a dilution of the character of the estate. 1.3 Between 1995 and 2003 planning permission was granted for the conversion of 8 houses into flats, and planning applications were received for the erection of an additional 26 houses within the estate. This document defines the character of the area through a detailed assessment, and sets out how local and national policy will apply to safeguard the essential characteristics of Southcourt. 2.0 HISTORY OF SOUTHCOURT Pre World War 2 2.1 Construction of Southcourt estate was started in 1920 on land purchased from the Church Commissioners; the land formed part of the Prebendal Farm.

  • Aylesbury Garden Town Masterplan July 2020
    Masterplan July 2020 Foreword The next 30 years is an exciting new era for Aylesbury as it grows into a Garden Town. It is three years since Aylesbury was awarded Garden Town status and given a once in a lifetime opportunity to improve the lives of our community. Since then we’ve been drawing up plans for the way the town will evolve over the next few decades, through listening and engaging with the many different groups that make Aylesbury the great place that it is. We’ve heard from residents and local businesses, as well as stakeholders, community groups and partners - and we’ve used that feedback to shape our Masterplan which builds on Aylesbury’s heritage and strengths and looks to its future opportunities as a Garden Town. Our Masterplan expands on the published 2050 Vision for Aylesbury Garden Town and explains in more detail how we propose to create an Aylesbury that is designed for everyone. This Town-wide Masterplan has inclusion and accessibility at its heart and proposes a wide range of both small and large projects and initiatives that will help make Aylesbury a greener and more prosperous place where everyone can enjoy a high quality of life. The current global pandemic has brought sharply into focus how important our local communities are, and how much we value green spaces, active travel and Cllr BILL CHAPPLE OBE access to local services and healthcare. The Masterplan focuses on these elements Chair Aylesbury Garden Town and on regenerating our town centre. It is an important document which will help Partnership shape our recovery from this unprecedented challenge.
