  • Bradley Area Action Plan – Progress to Date and Next Steps
    L ocal D evelopment F ramework fo r Pendle Bradley Area Action Plan DPD Sustainability Appraisal Report Non-Technical Summary January 2010 For an alternative format of this document phone 01282 661330 1 Introduction Pendle Borough Council has produced an Area Action Plan to guide the regeneration of part of the Bradley Ward in Nelson. It is essential when producing planning documents such as an Area Action Plan that the effect of the plan on the environment and people’s quality of life, both now and in the future is considered. Therefore a Sustainability Appraisal (SA) and a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) have been carried out in conjunction with the production of the Area Action Plan to make sure that relevant social, environmental and economic issues are taken into account at every stage in the process. Carrying out a Sustainability Appraisal is a lengthy process and the completed report is over 100 pages long. The purpose of this Non-Technical Summary is to provide a short summary of how the Sustainability Appraisal has been developed and how sustainability considerations have been incorporated into the Area Action Plan. The Sustainability Appraisal and Non-Technical Summary are supporting documents for the Area Action Plan which will be the subject of an Examination in Public by an independent Planning Inspector to decide whether the plan can be adopted by Pendle Borough Council. The Bradley Area Action Plan – Progress to Date and Next Steps BDP Planning was commissioned by Pendle Borough Council to produce a masterplan for the Bradley Priority Area in Nelson to guide the regeneration of the area.

  • Karen Bradley Announced That Would Be Her Last User Group Meeting As She Was Moving on from Waste Statistics, and That Alex Clothier Would Be Taking on Her Role
    WasteDataFlow (WDF) User Group for England – minutes of meeting on 18 September 2017 1. Introductions – Karen Bradley announced that would be her last User group meeting as she was moving on from Waste Statistics, and that Alex Clothier would be taking on her role. 2. Action points from the last meeting were reviewed. 3. Jacobs overview – main points:- Attendance at training webinars – there remained a high drop-out rate for a number of courses. The reasons were not clear e.g. technical issues joining or competing work demands or other factors. ACTION : Jacobs would welcome feedback on reasons for this with any practical solutions along with prior notification if any LA needed to pull out of training they had registered for. Reports run from WDF – Decline in number of reports being run – perhaps due to authorities viewing Indicators as less important compared to other matters they had to deal with or possibly the reduction in available reports. Validation – High-level commentary checks to be introduced for total recycling and incineration and landfill to give opportunity for authorities to comment on collection or disposal changes that may affect their figures. Jacobs and Defra explained that the commentary checks would be a ‘For response’ check; WDF would not check the detail of responses just that it addresses the question. Information such as changes to collection arrangements, including charging or switches in treatment is all really helpful contextual information that assists in data interpretation and removes the need for further enquiries. When the high-level checks are rolled out, Defra said they would be under review.

  • Pendle Borough Council Election Results 1973-2012
    Pendle Borough Council Election Results 1973-2012 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.
