Officers in attendance: D French (Chief Executive), R Dobson (Principal Democratic Services Officer), R Harborough (Director of Public Services), A Knight (Assistant Director - Resources), R Millership (Assistant Director – Housing and Environmental Services), S Pugh (Interim Head of Legal Services and Monitoring Officer), J Snares (Housing and Communities Manager) and A Webb (Director of Finance and Corporate Services). Public Speaking Mr T J Hockley and Mr R Tongue having registered to speak, the Chairman said the order of business would be altered to enable Mr Hockley to speak after declarations and apologies for absence, and to permit Mr Tongue to speak when the item on De Vigier Avenue was considered. Mr Hockley made a statement, a summary of which is appended to these minutes. Councillor Barker said she had visited Mr Hockley at his home, and that when she had been there, the unpleasant odour about which he had complained was not apparent. However, Councillor Ranger had visited earlier and had been aware of the odour. It was possible that the smell was being caused by how the site was run. She had invited Mr Hockley to meet with the Environment Agency and the Council’s Environmental Health Officer for a discussion. The cleanliness of the Council’s vehicles coming into the site was a possible factor, which she had communicated to the Operations Manager, who would ensure checks were put in place that the vehicles were clean. Mr Hockley expressed doubt about such measures resolving the problem. Councillor Rolfe said Mr Hockley and relevant parties should meet on the site to review the position. Whilst the Council did not own the site, the meeting would be a useful step to establishing what mitigation could be put in place. Page 1 Councillor Barker said Mr Hockley had referred to the District Council deciding where its waste was taken, but that in fact Essex County Council directed where the District Council had to take the waste. CA39 APOLOGIES FOR ABSENCE AND DECLARATION OF INTERESTS Councillor S Barker declared a personal interest in Great Dunmow Waste Transfer site, as Essex County Council, of which she was a member, had responsibility for that site. Apologies for absence were received from Councillors A Dean, J Lodge and H Ryles. CA40 MINUTES The minutes of the meeting held on 6 July 2017 were received and signed by the Chairman as a correct record. The minutes of the meeting held on 10 July 2017 were received and signed by the Chairman as a correct record, subject to an amendment as follows: to delete in the third paragraph of Minute CA29, Local Council Tax Support Scheme 2018/19, the wording “When this happened it would no longer be possible to maintain support for those people presently benefitting from LCTS.” CA41 QUESTIONS OR STATEMENTS FROM NON - EXECUTIVE MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL In the absence of Councillor Dean, a statement he had submitted for consideration at the meeting was read out as follows: "At the last Full Council Meeting I was appointed to a task group to oversee agreements with the Army at Carver Barracks related to an agreed grant of £500,000 towards the cost of creating a running track at the barracks. It is intended that there will be public access to the running track as there has been to date for the use of existing sport facilities. I have asked in writing a number of questions about past and current public usage of the facilities, for which some answers have been received. I have also asked questions related to forecasts of planned use by the local public of the running track. No answers have been received from the Army. Moreover, I am concerned that there may be a blockage within this Council preventing the questions being asked of the Army. I will, of course, continue to pursue these matters in the interests of public accountability." Councillor Rolfe said the Cabinet noted Councillor Dean’s comments. Whilst future use of the facility was difficult to predict, it would be in the context of the existing Multi Use Games Area.

  • Wind Farm Site Lies Within Countryside Character Area 87 – East Anglian Chalk
    Extracts - Existing Landscape significant adverse or detrimental impact upon the existing landscape resource and visual environment. As part of establishing the existing baseline environment, the assessment, therefore, reviewed a range of relevant landscape policy designations at a national, regional and local level from a number of local planning authorities. The key planning policy documents that apply are: Regional Plans and Guidance • East of England Plan 2001-2021 • East of England Regional Assembly “Placing Renewables in the East of England”, Final Report Local Plans/ Local Development Frameworks (LDF’s) • South Cambridgeshire LDF • Uttlesford Local Plan and SPD on Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy There is only one area of local landscape designation within a 10km radius of the site, which is a Special Landscape Area within the Braintree District, as illustrated on Figure 7.1 and this is considered within the assessment. This designation is expected to be removed on adoption of the emerging LDF. The areas of local landscape designation generally cover areas of attractive or mature landscapes which are valued for either landscape and/or visual amenity reasons. 7.5 The Existing Landscape Environment 7.5.1 Introduction The former Countryside Agency and English Nature, with support from English Heritage, produced the Character of England map in 1996. This combines English Nature’s Natural Areas and the Countryside Agency’s Countryside Character Areas into a composite map of Joint Character Areas. The map and supporting descriptions provide the top tier of the hierarchy of Landscape Character Assessment in England and a national context for regional and local landscape and ecological assessments.

  • USAAF AIRFIELDS Guide and Map Introduction
    USAAF AIRFIELDS Guide and Map Introduction During the Second World War, the East of England became home to hundreds of US airmen. They began arriving in 1942, with many existing RAF (Royal Air Force) airfields made available to the USAAF (United States Army Air Force). By 1943 there were over 100,000 US airmen based in Britain. The largest concentration was in the East of England, where most of the 8th Air Force and some of the 9th were located on near a hundred bases. The 8th Air Force was the largest air striking force ever committed to battle, with the first units arriving in May 1942. The 9th Air Force was re-formed in England in October 1943 - it was the operator of the most formidable troop-carrying force ever assembled. Their arrival had an immediate impact on the East Anglian scene. This was the 'friendly invasion' - a time of jitterbugging dances and big band sounds, while the British got their first taste of peanut butter, chewing gum and Coke. Famous US bandleader Glenn Miller was based in the Bedford area (Bedfordshire), along with his orchestra during the Second World War. Close associations with residents of the region produced long lasting friendships, sometimes even marriage. At The Eagle pub in Cambridge (Cambridgeshire), and The Swan Hotel at Lavenham (Suffolk), airmen left their signatures on the ceiling/walls. The aircraft of the USAAF were the B-17 Flying Fortress and B-24 Liberator - used by the Bombardment Groups (BG); and the P-51 Mustang, P-38 Lightning and P-47 Thunderbolt - used by the Fighter Groups (FG).
