Maidstone Green Party Response to Maidstone Borough Council's
Maidstone Green Party Response to Maidstone Borough Council’s consultation on the Local Plan Review Preferred Approaches Firstly, we are deeply concerned about the timing and brevity of this consultation. It was launched to run from before the date of the end of the national lockdown for covid, i.e. 1st December 2020 however as the council is aware, Maidstone immediately entered Tier 3 with the tightest restriction. This is very likely to reduce knowledge of and access to the consultation and therefore the process is challengeable. Furthermore the consultation in being run in the three week run up to Christmas, a generally accepted poor time for consultation and a time that will further suppress engagement by the public. We are concerned that this poorly timed consultation will not reasonable standards of engagement, particularly from hard to reach groups, and is therefore flawed. With regard to the Local Plan Review Preferred Approaches (LPRPA) itself: Climate change and the ecological emergency Given that this is the largest emergency facing humanity and that the council has acknowledged this, it is surprising that the LPRPA does not frame itself around carbon / pollution reduction, resource reduction, and restoration / mitigation. Climate change is paid lip service to only and it is clear that the council has not understood the impacts or requirements. Policy SP15(C) Climate Change commences with the words “Adopt a strategy for growth” demonstrating the council’s fundamental lack of understanding about the connection between the environment and the economy. The building of an average home uses 100t CO2e. The LPRPA requires that 18,210 homes are built, this will require the emission of 1.8 million tonnes of CO2e which would not be in keeping with the council’s aim to be carbon neutral or that climate change is an emergency. -
Document in Detail: Diocese of Canterbury Medieval Fragments
Issue 10, Summer 2018 Kent Archives is set for a busy summer. In this edition of our newsletter we introduce you to our joint project with Findmypast to digitise our parish register collection. The image in our header is from the first Cranbrook parish composite register [ref. P100/1/A/1], and is just one of the thousands of registers that will be digitised. We are also in the middle of transferring the remaining historic records of the Diocese of Canterbury from Canterbury Cathedral Archives to the Kent History and Library Centre to join its probate records, which have been held by Kent Archives since 1946. At the same time, archive cataloguing of one of Maidstone’s major papermaking collections is nearly complete; further World War I commemorative activities are underway; and work continues on the Catalogue Transfer Project and Manorial Documents Register Project for Kent. Document in Detail: Diocese of Canterbury Medieval Fragments [DCb/PRC/50/5] Mark Ballard, Archive Service Officer Among many other records of great value within the records of Canterbury Diocese are the ‘medieval fragments’ [DCb/PRC/49 and DCb/PRC/50], which in the post-Reformation period came to be used as covers, or ‘end-parchments’, for the probate registers. If we can judge by the dates of the act books and wills and inventories registers they covered, this recycling became a habit during the episcopate of Archbishop Matthew Parker (1559-1575). It is perhaps ironic that at precisely the time that Thomas Tallis and William Byrd, probably both closet Roman Catholics, were still being employed to write motets for the Chapel Royal, such disrespectful treatment was being accorded at Canterbury to their medieval predecessors. -

This report makes the following recommendations: REPORT TO BE NOTED. Timetable Meeting Date Maidstone Joint Transportation Board 14 October 2020 B2246 Hermitage Lane/A26 Tonbridge Road Project 1. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND 1.1 This report provides an update in respect of the proposed junction improvements contained within the A26 Tonbridge Road and B2246 Hermitage Lane project. 1.2 The road project was previously part of the Maidstone Integrated Transport Package (MITP) but was removed due to the lack of demonstratable benefit and good value for money. The project was then taken forward by a Member led working group with the aim of producing a scheme to utilise the available S106 funding. 1.3 The scheme was previously brought before the Joint Transportation Board in July 2019. Where following a comprehensive and thorough optioneering exercise, it was recommended that the scheme would not be progressed as the design options put forward did not sufficiently address the congestion experienced at the junction or posed a safety risk in terms of operation. A table outlining the previous options and the reasons for being discounted are shown in table 1. 1.4 The member led working group consisting of KCC Local Members, Maidstone Councillors and KCC officers have continued to work together to produce a design that all believe will provide the necessary capacity required to alleviate the current congestion issues experienced at the junction. -

GB 1204 Ch 46 Medway Archives and Local Studies Centre This catalogue was digitised by The National Archives as part of the National Register of Archives digitisation project NRA 22324 ! National Arc F Kent Archives Offic Ch 46 Watts Charity MSS., 1579-1972 Deposited by Mr. Chinnery, Clerk to the Charity, Rochester, 1st May 1974, and 5th February, 1976 Catalogued by Alison Revell, June 1978 INTRODUCTION For information concerning the establishment of Watts's Charity, under Richard Watts of Rochester's will, in 1579 and its subsequent history, The Report of Commissioners for Inquiring Concerning Charities - Kent, 1815-39 Pp. 504-9, provides most of the basic facts. Other Rochester Charities are dealt with in the same Report (see pages 55-57, and 500-513). The Report also deals with various early legal cases concerning the Charity, and the uses to which its funds should be put, most notably the cases of the parishes of St. Margaret 's Rochester, and Strood, against the parishioners of St. Nicholas in 1680, and of the parishioners of Chatham against the Trustees of the Charity in 1808 (see L1-4B in this catalogue). The original will of Richard Watts, drawn up in 1579 and proved in the following year in the Consistory Court of Rochester, is kept in this Office under the catalogue mark, DRb PW12 (1579), with a registered copy in the volume of registered wills, DRb PWr 16 (ffl05-107). A copy is also catalogued in this collection as Ch46 L1A. Further Watts Charity material is found in the Dean and Chapter of Rochester MSS, under the KAO catalogue number, DRc Cl/1-65, and consists mainly of accounts of the Providers of the Poor of Rochester, between the years 1699 and 1819. -
