  • Sileby Meeting Responses No Question Answer 1 I Recently
    Sileby Meeting Responses No Question Answer 1 I recently stumbled upon this article and wondered if you could ask if it has EA any bearing on the situation within Sileby and the surrounding areas The computer simulated hydraulic Modelling for the Soar Valley regarding the flooding. As I read and understand it all works that had been Improvement Scheme showed that no further works were required completed ended with Pillings Lock and not carried on through to upstream of Quorn itself and the first radial gate structure was Cossington as the original plan. only required at Pillings and not at Cossington as initially thought, this was because the river valley is very wide upstream of Pillings I may have read it completely wrong, but would this work have been carried and there is lots of natural active floodplain land to take the flood on and not stopped would it have made a big difference to Sileby? As flows adequately. barrow upon Soar copes well with flooding now compared to quite a few years back. There is little impact on the flood risk to Sileby from the River Soar itself and this small impact will only occur when the River Soar is in http://www.environmentdata.org/archive/ealit:2390/OBJ/20000936.pdf lager floods greater than 1:50yr as the river Soar will hold some water back in the Joint flood plain area of the River Soar and Sileby Brook which is mainly downstream of the properties in the village on the farmland and Sileby is therefore really only at major flood risk from the Sileby Brook itself.

  • Cab070215 Item 05 Questions Under
    CABINET – 15TH FEBRUARY 2007 ITEM 5 QUESTIONS UNDER COUNCIL PROCEDURE RULE 28 In accordance with Council Procedure Rule 28, the following questions have been submitted on notice. The response of the Leader/Lead Member is included. a. Question from Councillor Snartt Does the Leader agree with me: 1. That this Council needs to send a strong message to the Government asking them to take urgent action over the issues of student accommodation which exist in Loughborough, including legislation to amend the Use Classes Order? 2. That this would also be helpful to the student population? 3. That without legislation sustainable communities within certain areas of Loughborough will be difficult to achieve? Response: 1. We recognise the importance of amendments to Use Class Order legislation and are on the case already. I have been working with Andy Reed MP in pressing Ministers on this. In addition we have both highlighted salient comments made locally by SARG and a number of national bodies relating to the position in Northern Ireland where the position is different. We are hoping that the Minister of State, Phil Woolas MP, who visited Loughborough in October will be able to make some proposals with the LGA later this year and I can assure you that Andy Reed MP has placed this matter in the forefront of the Minister’s agenda. 2. Our primary concern is for the community as a whole of which the students are a part. We are working up a Student Management strategy in conjunction with the Students Union, The University, Loughborough College and local residents.
