Comments of Steve Goodman, Chairman, Houghton Field Association made during the informal public participation session of the Parish Council meeting on 8 September 2016 Steve Goodman, Chairman – Houghton Field Association commented on grass cutting at Houghton Field. He considered 2016 to have been a difficult year for grass cutting because of weather factors but considered that it would be more appropriate to specify an optimum grass height as opposed to stating a cutting frequency. He asked to be included in consideration of the grass cutting arrangements for 2017 and that he should have more involvement in management of the contract on an ongoing basis. Trimming around walls and hedges could be included but at a lower frequency than grass cutting. ITEM 13 – SECTION 106 FUNDING Comments of Councillor Ian Hill Ann (Sleath) and myself and also Rob Miles (rector) and Roger Bettles attended the briefing session on S106 held at HDC.

This policy covers the council’s support for public transport (subsidised bus services) and community transport. As such, the policy may impact on the transport services available to their residents in future. Many Parish Councils are already actively involved in responding to the transport needs of their residents. Examples include Parish Council involvement in Community Bus Partnerships, but also their role in Good Neighbour Schemes and voluntary car sharing schemes that help to support vulnerable residents in accessing key services and activities. Details The Countywide Accessibility Policy Review is being led on the Council’s behalf by ITP, a firm of sustainable transport consultants with experience in this area. The aim of the project is to review the Council’s accessibility policy to see whether it is still fit-for-purpose in the light of the needs and priorities of Leicestershire communities, likely future constraints on budget, and the Council’s new set of overall desirable outcomes that are currently being developed. Included in the scope of this review are: • (Council supported) local bus services • (Council supported) Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) services • (Council support for) Community Transport services • (Council support for) the Wheels to Work scheme • Provision of public transport information The project will take place in two distinct phases. Phase 1 will run until March 2017 and will focus on reviewing current services and developing potential future options. Phase 2 will involve developing recommendations to the council’s Cabinet and holding a public consultation. Any new policy would not take effect until 2018 at the earliest. Agenda 5_10_16 Supporting information 5 Parishes Reference Groups We appreciate Parish Councils will have a keen interest in this policy, which may impact on the transport services available to their residents in future. Many Parish Councils are already actively involved in responding to the transport needs of their residents. Examples include Parish Council involvement in Community Bus Partnerships, but also their role in Good Neighbour Schemes and voluntary car sharing schemes that help to support vulnerable residents in accessing key services and activities. As part of Phase 1 of the project we are working with the Leicestershire & Rutland Association of Local Councils to arrange a Parishes Reference Group. The aim of this group is to enable parish council voices and views to inform the early thinking about current services and future options. As such, we are looking for parish council representatives from around the county and from a range of parish sizes. Reference Group Meetings The reference group will meet twice during the latter part of 2016, with each meeting lasting for approximately 90 mins. The first meeting will be to discuss: • What the travel challenges are that are faced by Leicestershire residents, especially those with no or reduced access to a car. • To what extent current Council-funded travel options (eg. some local buses, demand-responsive transport services, community transport schemes, the Wheels to Work scheme) help meet those challenges • In an era of reducing budgets, what should the priorities be for Council service provision • What could people and local communities do for themselves to address the travel challenges The second meeting will be to discuss the pro’s and con’s of emerging future transport policy options that will have been developed by then, drawing on discussions with different stakeholders and on internal deliberations. Agenda 5_10_16 Supporting information 6 If you are interested in taking part in this reference group and are available on both of the dates below, please contact Jake Atkinson by Friday 30th September to nominate yourself. Parishes Date & Time Venue Reference Group First Meeting Wed 12th October , 1.30 – County Hall, Glenfield 3.30pm Second Mon 21st November, 10am – Jubilee Hall in Anstey Meeting 12noon Please note that, to ensure the reference group has the right balance and size, there may not be places for all nominees. Jake will confirm with all nominees by 4th October. Agenda 5_10_16 Supporting information 7 ITEM 20/3 - SHALE WEALTH FUND Shale Wealth Fund consultation Leicestershire County Council would like to let Parish Councils know that on 8 August 2016 the Government launched a consultation seeking views on the delivery method and priorities of the Shale Wealth Fund. A copy of the consultation document, which includes a number of questions, is available on the Government’s website via the following link: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/54424

  • Accompanying Note
    Rural Economy Planning Toolkit Companion Document Instructions for Using the Toolkit Useful Context Information Produced by: Funded by: Rural Economic Development Planning Toolkit This document explains how to use the toolkit in greater detail and sets out some of the broader context relevant to the development of the toolkit. Its sections are: Instructions for Using the Toolkit Economic Development Context The Emerging National Framework for Planning and Development The assessment of planning applications for rural economic development: designated sites and key issues for Leicestershire authorities What makes a good rural economic development planning proposal? Case Studies Parish Broadband Speeds The Distribution and Contribution of Rural Estates within Leicestershire Attractions in Leicester and Leicestershire Instructions - Using the Toolkit The toolkit is in the form of an interactive PDF document. Most of the text is locked, and you cannot change it. Throughout the toolkit, though, comments, information and responses are asked for, and boxes you can type in are provided. You are also asked to select 'traffic lights' – red, amber or green. It is important to understand that, if you start with a blank copy of the toolkit, the first thing you should do is save it with a different name using the 'Save as Copy' command in Acrobat Reader. This means you have now created a version of the toolkit for the particular project you are working on, and still have the blank copy of the toolkit for another time. Let's assume you have saved your copy of the PDF file as 'Project.pdf' – every time you save again you will save all of the additions and traffic light choices you have made.

  • LOCAL GOVERNMENT Overview Manorial Government
    Victoria County History: Leicestershire LUTTERWORTH DRAFT TEXT by P.J. Fisher and A. Watkins LOCAL GOVERNMENT Overview Lutterworth’s institutional structure resembled that of a village, with three-weekly manor courts, and twice-yearly views of frankpledge, presided over by the lord’s bailiff. The only court rolls to survive before the 18th century are from 1562, 1564 and 1657.1 Many survive from 1732 to 1857.2 One of the town’s two medieval religious guilds evolved into what became the Town Estate, which repaired the roads and funded town ‘improvements’.3 Town-masters’ accounts survive from 1707 to 1726 and 1761 to 1872.4 Constables’ accounts survive from 1651 to 1707 and 1809 to 1832.5 Their duties in 1657 included reporting ‘Popish Recusants’, houses erected without the statutory 4 a. of land, unlicensed alehouses, people playing unlawful games and those buying or selling corn before the market opened.6 The accounts include expenditure in the 1650s on a cuck-stool (ducking stool) with wheel, a whipping post and a cage (lock-up).7 Vestry minutes survive from 1789 to 1960.8 The town also had a Nuisances Committee from 1855, but it had little power to effect sanitary improvements. There was never a burial board. Town (parish) council minutes survive from 1894.9 Lutterworth was the main market town in Guthlaxton Hundred, and had a minor administrative role in the county in the 14th and 15th centuries. It became the centre of a Poor Law Union in 1835, and a Rural District Council in 1894. It hosted petty sessions and a county court from the 18th century, and magistrates’ courts until 1998.

  • Harborough District Council
    Harborough Council Size Submission Approved by Full Council on 25th July 2016 Section 1 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Harborough District spans an area of 59,178 hectares (228 square miles) situated in rural south Leicestershire. The district shares boundaries with Melton Borough, Rutland County, Corby Borough, Kettering Borough, Daventry District, Rugby Borough, Blaby District, Oadby and Wigston Borough, Leicester City, and Charnwood Borough. 1.2 The sub-regional centre is Market Harborough; key centres are recognised as Broughton Astley and Lutterworth; rural centres are Kibworth, Fleckney, Great Glen, Billesdon, Ullesthorpe and Husbands Bosworth. 1.3 Harborough District comprises 91 parishes, of which 45 have parish councils and 42 are parish meetings (3 joint parish meetings represent 7 separate parishes). The town of Market Harborough is unparished. 1.4 There are a number of main ‘A’ roads that link the main urban settlements within and outside the District. The A4303/A4304 serves between Harborough and Lutterworth, and the A426 links Lutterworth to Rugby. The A6 links Market Harborough directly to Leicester and the A14 links to Kettering and the South. The main urban areas of the District are close to the intersection of the M1, M6 and A14. 1.5 The midland mainline runs through the district with London just over an hour’s journey from Market Harborough. Harborough’s rural nature, and its proximity to London by rail, make it an increasingly attractive place for commuters to live. 1.6 The 2011 Census recorded the population of the Harborough District as 85,382. The Office for National Statistics estimates that the population of Harborough District will increase to 100,800 by 2033.
