Draft Whittlesey Neighbourhood Plan This Determination Statement
24 August 2021 Strategic Environmental Assessment Determination Statement: Draft Whittlesey Neighbourhood Plan This determination statement has been produced by Fenland District Council (FDC) as “responsible authority”, to meet the requirements of Regulation 9 of the Environmental Assessment of Plans and Programmes Regulations 2004. This Determination Statement forms a Submission Document for the purposes of neighbourhood planning, as required by The Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012 (as amended) (reg. 15(e)(ii)). A Screening Assessment was undertaken by FDC during the preparation of the draft Whittlesey Neighbourhood Plan. As part of this assessment, FDC consulted the statutory bodies. The SEA Screening Report follows this Determination Statement. The Screening Report examines the strategic policy and environmental context relevant to Whittlesey, and presents the findings of the screening assessment. The report identifies that the draft Whittlesey Neighbourhood Plan does not seek to increase the overall quantum of growth beyond that which has already been permitted through the planning system. Other policies generally accord with the adopted Local Plan, the potential environmental effects of which were duly assessed through the plan-making process. The Screening Report was sent to consultation bodies for comment (13 July to 23 August 2021). Responses were received from Environment Agency, Historic England and Natural England. Through its response to the draft Screening Report consultation, Historic England concurred with the Council that the preparation of a Strategic Environmental Assessment is not required. Natural England confirmed it agrees with the report’s conclusions that the Whittlesey Neighbourhood Plan would not be likely to result in a significant effect on any European Site, either alone or in combination and therefore no further assessment work is required. -

We conducted an electoral review of Fenland District Council to provide improved levels of electoral equality across the authority. -

Infrastructure Delivery Schedule 34 2 1 Introduction 1.1 The purpose of the Fenland Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) is to outline the key infrastructure requirements needed or desired to support growth in Fenland up to 2031. The IDP will help to coordinate infrastructure provision and ensure that funding and delivery timescales are closely aligned to those in the Local Plan. It is a living document which will be updated regularly to incorporate changes in project progress or the availability of funding. 1.2 This IDP supersedes the Fenland IDP adopted in February 2013. The previous document mainly set out the high level strategic infrastructure required to support the adoption of the Local Plan. With an adopted plan (May 2014) now in place this updated IDP seeks to provide a basis for the delivery of the policies in that plan. -
13 DECEMBER 2018 Report Title: POLLING DISTRICTS and POLLING PLACES REVIEW 1 Purpose
Agenda Item No: 9 Committee: COUNCIL Date: 13 DECEMBER 2018 Report Title: POLLING DISTRICTS AND POLLING PLACES REVIEW 1 Purpose / Summary To consider the outcome of the recent review of polling districts and places, as required by the Electoral Registration and Administration Act 2013. 2 Key issues • The Electoral Registration and Administration Act 2013 introduced a change to the timing of compulsory reviews of UK Parliamentary polling districts and polling places; • The last compulsory review was agreed by Full Council on 18 December 2014; • Subsequent compulsory reviews must be started and completed within the period of 16 months that starts on 1 October of every fifth year after 1 October 2013, which means the next review should be started and completed between 1 October 2018 and 31 January 2020; • This review is being carried out at this time due to the District and Town and Parish Council elections due to take place on 2 May 2019 and the need to implement changes as a result of the Local Government Boundary Commission for England Review of Cambridgeshire County Council to some parish wards and the Community Governance Review in Whittlesey; • The Council has undertaken a consultation exercise on the proposals within the report and received a number of comments which have been taken into account in the final recommendations. All comments and responses are detailed in Appendix B; • This review has no effect upon the number of electoral wards or councillors. 3 Recommendations That the Council • notes the outcome of the review and the consultation undertaken; • agrees the changes recommended to polling districts and polling places, as detailed in the report at Appendix C; • notes that a review of all polling districts will be undertaken at least every five years and delegates authority to the Returning Officer/Electoral Registration Officer to keep polling districts under review, in the intervening period between compulsory reviews, and propose any changes which appear necessary to Full Council for its consideration and determination. -
Political Group Submissions to the Cambridgeshire County Council Electoral Review
Political group submissions to the Cambridgeshire County Council electoral review This PDF document contains submissions from Political Groups. Some versions of Adobe allow the viewer to move quickly between bookmarks. Click on the submission you would like to view. If you are not taken to that page, please scroll through the document. Submission to the Boundary Commission on the Review of the Divisions in Cambridgeshire by the Liberal Democrat Group on Cambridge City Council. 1. The Timing of this Submission. The Commission has allowed submissions from Cambridge City Council to be sent after the official closing date of 19th January up to 31st January, This submission is by the Liberal Democrat group on Cambridge City Council. It would have been impossible to have got a meaningful submission in by the 19th January as the correct numbers were not available at that date (see item 2). We contend that the scheme submitted by the Cambridge Labour Party through the City Council is fundamentally flawed as it is based on incorrect numbers and not compliant with the rules governing reviews of County Council electoral arrangements in two-tier areas (see item 3). 2. The Numbers of Electors. The numbers of electors in Cambridge has changed in two ways since summer 2014 when the Commission indicated that it was “minded to” fix the numbers of members of the County Council (and hence the Divisions) at 63. Number of students underestimated. The original numbers overlooked new student accommodation in the city which is projected to house 2,410 students. As Cambridge University records show that approximately 16% of students are not citizens of the UK, EU or a Commonwealth country, it is reasonable to assume that 84% (ie 2,025) are expected to be eligible to vote in some UK elections. -

But too many of them are suffering from neglect, decay and pressure from development. Heritage at Risk is a national project to identify these endangered places and then help secure their future. In 2008 English Heritage published its first register of Heritage at Risk – a region-by-region list of all the Grade I and II* listed buildings (and Grade II listed buildings in London), structural scheduled monuments, registered battlefields and protected wreck sites in England known to be ‘at risk’. -

Over that time, we have reduced the number of historic sites which have been at risk from destruction or demolition in many parts of the East of England region.The first category of assets which we focused on were Buildings at Risk. In our region, which has suffered the vicissitudes of industrial slumps and changing demographics alongside periods of rapid economic growth, this has led to a number of important buildings facing serious threats. Some of these are redundant farm buildings, mills and industrial structures, others are anything from private houses to ornamental follies. With the expansion of the Buildings at Risk Register and developers to proceed with some building projects, to a Heritage at Risk Register we have undertaken an with the reduced availability of funding. We understand, assessment of registered battlefields, registered parks and too, why it may sometimes be necessary to delay a gardens, scheduled monuments, conservation areas and project, although we also know that to put off routine protected wreck sites. These additional categories have repairs can in the long term be a false economy. -
