  • Polling District and Polling Places Review 2011 Final Report of the Returning Officer
    Appendix A Polling District and Polling Places Review 2011 Final Report of the Returning Officer This report sets out for consideration by the Council the Returning Officer’s arrangements for polling districts and polling places within the London Borough of Croydon. The review has been conducted according to the requirements of the Review of Polling Districts and Polling Places (Parliamentary Elections) Regulations 2006 that came into force on 1 January 2007. The consultation period lasted from 1 September until 23 September 2011. All submissions were considered and appear in this final report. The Polling District Review Task Group, consisting of four members of the Council, considered and reviewed the Returning Officer’s proposals. The methodology followed in producing the proposals was as follows: • That the Returning Officer’s median figure for the initial review of 1,750 projected polling station voters per polling district formed the basis of the recommendations within this report • That, in line with Electoral Commission guidelines, there will no more than 2,500 electors allocated to each polling station • That electors will be distributed equally amongst all polling districts in the Ward, where practicable • That accessibility requirements will be accounted for when allocating polling places • That local disability groups will be consulted as part of the review • Polling district boundaries could be changed but not the Ward boundaries Other considerations: • There are many new developments in the process of being built.

  • Written Evidence Submitted by the Caterham Flood Action Group (FLO0013)
    Written evidence submitted by The Caterham flood Action Group (FLO0013) Introduction We, the Caterham Flood Action Group (FLAG), represent flood victims of Caterham on the Hill, Chaldon and Old Coulsdon, where 121 homes (of the 350 at risk) suffered terribly in the devastating floods of June 2016. We are affiliated to the National Flood Forum (NFF) and hold regular Multi-agency Meetings (MAM) with the Risk Management Authorities (those being, Surrey County Council (SCC - as LLFA), Tandridge District Council (TDC - as LPA), the London Borough of Croydon (LBC - as LLFA & LPA), Thames Water, The Environment Agency and City of London Corporation). Our most recent virtual MAM took place on 24th April ‘20. Our goal to find a long-term solution to this man-made flood risk. Our Catchment falls within steep sided valleys, decades of cumulative overdevelopment, non-maintenance of the surface water drainage infrastructure, no investment/upgrade of the foul drainage infrastructure to suit development, population growth or climate change and failure to manage the flood risk, simply means that when it rains, we’re at risk of foul flooding… in the 21st century and it’s absolutely disgusting. We have participated in many consultations on all things flood related and to be perfectly honest, they are getting rather repetitive. “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results”. The Pitt review came up with the solutions many years ago, why then are we still debating this issue? https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/69489/2012- 01-31-pb13705-pitt-review-progress.pdf And if all but two of the recommendations (92 in total) were taken forward (in 2012), why are we no closer to managing the flood risk in this country? For the record, the Caterham FLAG are participating in the collaborative learning project, commissioned by the Environment Agency, undertaken by Icarus.

  • Croydon South Labour Party April 2017
    Introduction Croydon South Constituency Labour Party provides below suggested improvements to the draft recommendations on new local authority ward boundaries as they apply to the Croydon South parliamentary constituency. Proposed alterations are given letters A to L and the locations are also marked for the convenience of the Commission on the overview map of the newly proposed wards and on maps of the predecessor wards that are impacted by changes suggested below. Coulsdon Town/Purley & Woodcote All of that part of Stoats Nest Road (A) that is between the Brighton Road and the Railway Bridge better lies within the Coulsdon Town ward as addresses here are in the postal district of Coulsdon and have a CR5 post code. We feel that the residents here would believe that they live in Coulsdon and not in Kenley nor in Purley. This would mean that all of Stoats Nest Road would be in the same ward. This impacts upon 15 properties and 22 electors. Coulsdon Town/Old Coulsdon To strengthen the connection to the Coulsdon Woods and Hillers Heath Road consideration might be given to including both sides of Petersfield Crescent (B) in Coulsdon Town ward this having an impact on only three properties and six electors. Aldercroft (C) sits much better within Coulsdon Town ward as Aldercroft is a continuation of Deepfield Way with Rutherwick Rise a more clearly delineating boundary between Coulsdon Town and Old Coulsdon. This affects 29 properties and approximately 41 electors. It might well make good sense to include all of Ullswater Crescent (D) in one ward and thus to move the far end of this industrial estate into the Coulsdon Town ward.

  • Submission to the LGBCE: London Borough of Croydon by Chris Philp MP Member of Parliament for Croydon South Friday 28Th April 2017
    Submission to the LGBCE: London Borough of Croydon By Chris Philp MP Member of Parliament for Croydon South Friday 28th April 2017 I am responding to the LGBCE draft proposals for Warding patterns for the London Borough of Croydon published in 14th March 2017. I am writing in my capacity as Member of Parliament for Croydon South. In summary, I think that the LGBCE draft proposals do an excellent job of reflecting the natural communities of Croydon. The draft proposal also adhere strongly to the “Places” of Croydon, as defined by the Council themselves in a previous exercise. I would like to congratulate the LGBCE for the proposals that they have generated. Besides respecting the natural communities and “places” of Croydon, the proposals also respect hard boundaries (such as railway lines) where possible and minimise the splits to natural communities in the Borough. I would also like to emphasise the importance of maintaining Waddon as a three member Ward. It has been in this form since 1977, and has a community coherence as well as historical precedent to it. The more disadvantaged areas of the Waddon estate also benefit from the extra voice being part of a three member ward provides. Waddon as a three member ward is contained within string natural boundaries: the industrial areas to the north-west and west, and the town centre to the north-east. There are some minor modifications which would improve the LGBCE proposals even further, which I have summarised below: 1. Move some roads from Sanderstead to South Croydon The triangle of roads between Carlton Road, Selsdon Road and Essenden Road belong in the new South Croydon Ward not Sanderstead (as proposed).

  • The Public Service Ethos, Union Activism and Building Alliances
    THE PUBLIC SERVICE ETHOS AND UNION MOBILISATION: A CASE STUDY OF THE PUBLIC LIBRARY SERVICE Steve Davies Cardiff School of Social Sciences Cardiff University This thesis is submitted to Cardiff University in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2012 ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank all of the UNISON members, reps and paid officers who helped in the completion of this thesis by giving their time, ideas and assistance so generously. I would also like to thank those members of library campaign groups who similarly enthusiastically provided me with information and opinions. I thank the Richard Benedict Fund for a grant of £2000 to support my work for this thesis and Professor Ed Heery of the Cardiff Business School for facilitating the application. I particularly thank Professor Huw Beynon as supervisor for all his advice, help, discussion and encouragement. Finally I thank my family, Sue, Anna and Meg for putting up with periodic absences, occasional grumpiness and the odd moment of panic over this (very) long period of research and writing. iii Abstract After thirty years of neoliberal public sector reforms involving the increased use of the private sector and the import of private sector methods, in many respects, the public sector is barely recognisable from when Mrs Thatcher was elected. This study is about one specific part of the public services – the public library service – and is analysed in the context of the wider picture of change in the public services. In particular, the focus of the thesis is the attitude of library service workers to the public service ethos (PSE), whether and how it informs their attitude to their work and its potential for use by their union in mobilisation.

  • Purley War Memorial Hospital – Urgent Care
    c/o C Stanley, 6 Highclere Close, Kenley CR8 5JU. t. 020 8660 8505 The Rt Hon Jeremy Hunt MP Secretary of State for Health 1st September 2015 Dear Mr Hunt, PURLEY WAR MEMORIAL HOSPITAL – URGENT CARE Joint Open Letter from South of the Croydon Borough Residents’ Associations We are contacting you regarding urgent care provision at Purley Hospital, in our capacity as Residents’ Associations representing the interests of 85,000 residents in Purley and surrounding districts. In summary; Purley hospital was redeveloped with £11 million of public money in 2012 – 13 to provide improved outpatient facilities and an Urgent Care Centre for our residents. In May 2014 the Croydon Clinical Commissioning Group drastically downgraded the urgent care services provided at Purley, and significantly reduced its opening hours. This was done without appropriate prior consultation. Since the downgrade we have engaged directly with the CCG and through Croydon HealthWatch to have the urgent care services reinstated. However the CCG have repeatedly denied there was a downgrade, have been intransigent in our discussions, and have suggested that further cuts in services may be forthcoming. We therefore ask you to intervene in this matter to ensure that our residents get the local urgent care service they need, as originally agreed and implemented when the hospital was redeveloped. Purley Hospital is in the district centre of Purley with a local population of approximately 85,000 residents in the surrounding wards of Purley, Kenley, Coulsdon West, Coulsdon East and Sanderstead. Our previous MP, Sir Richard Ottaway, led a campaign to have the hospital redeveloped and an Urgent Care Centre provided to meet the needs of local residents.

Description Addiscombe Recreation Ground is a small recreation ground dating from 1911 largely laid to grass and completely surrounded by houses. The land was acquired in 1905 by Croydon Board of Health under the 1875 Public Health Act and was previously farmland, like much of Croydon, until development for housing changed the landscape dramatically from the early twentieth century. The site is shown on Thomas Bainbridge's Map of Croydon of 1800 as two fields belonging to A Adair Esq. It was at one time part of the Ashburton Estate, the country home of the Barings, who were heirs of the Barony of Ashburton. The estate mansion had been situated at the corner of Addiscombe Road and Northampton Road, and the estate farmhouse was also on Addiscombe Road with a farmtrack alongside it known as Love Lane.
