INTRODUCTION 1.1 This Statement of Community Involvement has been prepared on behalf of Aitchison Raffety (the applicant), to set out the consultation process undertaken for the proposed mixed use development at the former Kingspan Works on Charlestown Road, Glossop. 1.2 This application seeks planning permission for a mixed use development comprising a total of 105 residential units and 1660m² of commercial floor space. The application is in outline with all matters reserved, however, significant details are provided in terms of the form, scale and nature of the development which has been carefully developed through discussions with the Council in order to create a high quality scheme which will deliver significant economic and environmental benefits to the area. The mix of uses including residential has been developed in response to identified issues relating to industrial sites and the need to find viable uses for them for the benefit of the local area. 1.3 This Statement addresses the pre-application consultation which has taken place on the development proposals for the site. 2. GUIDANCE FOR THE CONSULTATION PROCESS 2.1 The National Planning policy framework (NPPF) sets out the Government’s overarching national planning policies and includes principles for community involvement in planning. One of the core planning principles as described in the NPPF, is the involvement of the community in planning. Community involvement is seen as vitally important to planning and the achievement of sustainable development. Consultation should not be a reactive process but rather it should enable the local community to say what sort of place they want to live in at a stage when this can make a difference. 2.2 The Localism Act sets out the Government’s means of shifting more power into the hands of individuals, communities and local Councils. 2.3 The Act introduces a new requirement for developers to consult local communities before submitting planning applications for very large developments and a new right for communities to draw up a “neighbourhood development plan" amongst numerous other intended changes. 2.4 The High Peak Borough Council’s Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) was adopted in May 2006. The Council state that the benefits of involving a wider range of people and organisations in decision making can include outcomes that better reflect the views and aspirations of the local community. 2 Statement of Community Involvement on behalf of Aitchison Raffety Former Kingspan Works, Charlestown Road, Glossop 2.5 This Statement sets out how the project team (including the applicant) undertook public consultation on the proposed mixed use development at a pre-application stage and how the comments raised have been addressed within the planning application submission. 3. PUBLIC EXHIBITION CONSULTATION INTRODUCTION 3.1 The pre-application public consultation in respect of the outline planning proposals was launched by a public exhibition held on Wednesday, 11 May 2011. 3.2 Prior to the public exhibition, the project team (including the applicant) aimed to reach out to as many interested parties as possible. Residents and commercial occupiers (see Appendix 2) based within the vicinity of the site were chosen to receive a hand-delivered leaflet (see Appendix 1) to advise them of the forthcoming consultation event. The location of these residents and commercial occupiers was considered suitable for consultation purposes and included areas on, and just off, Charlestown Road and Turnlee Road. Approximately 600 of these leaflets were delivered in total. 3.3 A leaflet was posted to Anne Jordan (Principal Planning Officer) at High Peak Borough Council who has met with the project team at the pre-application discussion stage. All local Councillors were also notified of the exhibition. 3.4 In total, approximately 600 leaflets were distributed on 6 May 2011, close to a week before the exhibition. Appendix 2 contains a full list of addresses and businesses informed of the event and Appendix 6 lists all of the comments received from attendees. 3.5 Readers of local newspapers (Glossop Chronicle and Glossop Advertiser) were notified of the exhibition by a public notice advertisement, commissioned by the applicant. These were placed in the Glossop Chronicle on 5 May 2011 and in the Glossop Advertiser on 5 May 2011(see newspaper advertisements in Appendix 3). CONSULTATION PROCESS 3.6 It had originally been hoped to hold the exhibition at the site. However, due to the disrepair of the buildings on the site, the George Hotel in Glossop town centre was chosen to host the exhibition event. The exhibition was held over one day between 2pm and 8pm on Wednesday, 11 May 2011. The exhibition 3 Statement of Community Involvement on behalf of Aitchison Raffety Former Kingspan Works, Charlestown Road, Glossop was held in order to give local people and businesses the opportunity to understand the site and proposals and to ask questions of the project team. 3.7 Eleven exhibition boards were on display, each explaining different aspects of the mixed use scheme. Copies of the boards can be found in Appendix 4. A total of 108 local residents and representatives from local businesses attended the exhibition. This was a high turnout and the main issues raised during the exhibition process are outlined in Section 4. CONSULTATION METHODS 3.8 The leaflet informing residents and businesses of the public exhibition was produced on an A4 sheet of paper, double sided. The leaflet was distributed to over 600 addresses within the vicinity of the site. Details provided on the leaflet include site location and exhibition venue map, contact information of one member of the project team, site information, purpose of the consultation and scheme proposals, ‘what happens next’ information and street level views of the proposals. 3.9 Advertisements placed in the Glossop Chronicle and Glossop Advertiser occupied a column of 6cm x 8.5cm and contained information about the consultation event as well as contact details. 3.10 The exhibition itself was manned by professionals at all times, including the applicant and members of the project team to ensure that all detailed questions raised could be answered. The following team members, including the applicant, attended:- Town Planners Architect Flood Risk, Contamination and Highways Engineer Project Manager 3.11 The exhibition was made up of 11 illustrative boards, engineering drawings and draft application documentation. Visitors to the exhibition were encouraged to complete feedback forms in order to provide their written responses to the emerging proposals as soon as possible over the next few weeks. 4. PUBLIC EXHIBITION FEEDBACK AND ANALYSIS INTRODUCTION 4 Statement of Community Involvement on behalf of Aitchison Raffety Former Kingspan Works, Charlestown Road, Glossop 4.1 Over 600 people and groups were notified of the public exhibition. Furthermore, the event was widely publicised in line with national and local guidance. The exhibition was attended by 108 people. 4.2 Interested parties were also given the opportunity to provide written feedback either during the exhibition or by writing directly to a member of the project team without needing to attend the exhibition. Fifteen completed feedback forms were received prior to submission of the outline planning application. 4.3 The majority of attendees who provided comments were residents. The following section provides a summary of the written comments forms returned as part of the exhibition process, together with verbal comments received during the process. EXHIBITION FEEDBACK AND ANALYSIS 4.4 The high attendance figures at the event highlight the interest in the scheme and the successful use of the consultation methods (leaflets and newspaper advertisements). 4.5 The overall feedback from those that did attend the exhibition or provided written feedback was very supportive of the overall principles, proposed mix of uses, creation of landmark developments, open space improvements and redevelopment of a run-down site. General comments included:- - provide additional employment opportunities - improve highway safety and a major approach route into the town - the quality of the scheme looks impressive - improvement and tidying up of the area and glad that something is being done with the site - importance of existing woodland - demolition of buildings in disrepair - when is the development likely to commence? Local people were keen for the scheme to commence as soon as possible - the

If specific information about your particular interest or need is not shown, then pop into the Town Hall Information Point and ask there. If they don't know the answer, they usually know someone who does! The Parish Council produces a quarterly Newsletter which is available from the Town Hall or the Post Office. Chapel is a small friendly town with a long history, in a beautiful location, almost surrounded by the Peak District National Park. It's about 800 feet above sea level, and its neighbour, Dove Holes, is about 1000 feet above, so while the weather can be sometimes wild, on good days its situation is magnificent. The Parish Council takes pride in maintaining the facilities it directly controls, and ensures that as far as possible, the other Councils who provide many of the local services - High Peak Borough Council (HPBC) and Derbyshire County Council (DCC) also serve the area well.

It’s even less obvious given that my grandparents on my mother’s side were thoroughly red, from a mining family, who generally believed in two religions - Methodism and Socialism, with one, arguably, influencing the other. But the Labour Party of today is a million miles away from the one that my grandparents had such reverence for. Despite all the hope that was invested in them in 1997, Labour spent 13 years taking the North East and their “heartlands” for granted, betting the bank on the City of London, doing little to provide the infrastructure that the North needed and regarding the North as a useful place to “parachute” their preferred candidates. They also did nothing to crack down on the practices that allowed vested interests to prey on the poorest.

At the end of last year, after consultation with service users, stakeholders and our supporters in the community, we agreed that we needed to change the name and brand of the organisation. We have done this for several reasons. We felt that the name no longer reflects our area of work as we now are operating services in the North Dales. The name also does not reflect the work that we do with children and young people and it is often a barrier to men who wish to access our service.

    Machine Learning and Sentiment Analysis Approaches for the Analysis of Parliamentary Debates Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Zaher Ibrahim Saleh Salah Faculty of Science Department of Computer Science May 2014 \It is not best that we should all think alike; it is a difference of opinion that makes horse races." Mark Twain Abstract In this thesis the author seeks to establish the most appropriate mechanism for con- ducting sentiment analysis with respect to political debates; firstly so as to predict their outcome and secondly to support a mechanism to provide for the visualisation of such debates in the context of further analysis. To this end two alternative approaches are considered, a classification-based approach and a lexicon-based approach. In the context of the second approach both generic and domain specific sentiment lexicons are considered. Two techniques to generating domain-specific sentiment lexicons are also proposed: (i) direct generation and (ii) adaptation. The first was founded on the idea of generating a dedicated lexicon directly from labelled source data. The second approach was founded on the idea of using an existing general purpose lexicon and adapting this so that it becomes a specialised lexicon with respect to some domain. The operation of both the generic and domain specific sentiment lexicons are com- pared with the classification-based approach. The comparison between the potential sentiment mining approaches was conducted by predicting the attitude of individual debaters (speakers) in political debates (using a corpus of labelled political speeches extracted from political debate transcripts taken from the proceedings of the UK House of Commons).

  • High Peak Borough Council Boundary Proposals from Andrew Bingham MP
    High Peak Borough Council Boundary Proposals from Andrew Bingham MP As the Member of Parliament for the High Peak Constituency, the boundary of which is co- terminus with the boundary of High Peak Borough Council, I wish to submit proposals for ward boundaries. Having represented the High Peak for over three and a half years as the Member of Parliament, with 7 years prior to that as the parliamentary candidate, in addition to 12 years previous experience as a Councillor on High Peak Borough Council, as well as having lived in the High Peak all my life, I believe I am well qualified to comment on where communities are based across the High Peak, and how best to represent those communities in terms of Borough Council ward boundaries. The first thing to note is that there are four distinct areas of the High Peak. There is the area around Glossop and Glossopdale; the area around Buxton; the central area of the High Peak which includes Chapel-en-le-Frith, Chinley, Whaley Bridge, New Mills, Hayfield, and other smaller villages and settlements; and the Hope Valley area, which includes Castleton, Hope, Bamford and other smaller settlements, and is mostly very rural. The current boundaries do a good job of marking the boundaries between these four areas, and I don’t propose anything which would change this. Indeed, for convenience, my proposals are grouped into these four areas.
