    Draft recommendations on the future electoral arrangements for Harlow in Essex June 2000 LOCAL GOVERNMENT COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND LOCAL GOVERNMENT COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND The Local Government Commission for England is an independent body set up by Parliament. Our task is to review and make recommendations to the Government on whether there should be changes to local authorities’ electoral arrangements. Members of the Commission are: Professor Malcolm Grant (Chairman) Professor Michael Clarke CBE (Deputy Chairman) Peter Brokenshire Kru Desai Pamela Gordon Robin Gray Robert Hughes CBE Barbara Stephens (Chief Executive) We are statutorily required to review periodically the electoral arrangements – such as the number of councillors representing electors in each area and the number and boundaries of wards and electoral divisions – of every principal local authority in England. In broad terms our objective is to ensure that the number of electors represented by each councillor in an area is as nearly as possible the same, taking into account local circumstances. We can recommend changes to ward boundaries, and the number of councillors and ward names. © Crown Copyright 2000 Applications for reproduction should be made to: Her Majesty’s Stationery Office Copyright Unit The mapping in this report is reproduced from OS mapping by the Local Government Commission for England with the permission of the Controller of Her Majesty’s Stationery Office, © Crown Copyright.

  • 1 Introduction and Aims
    PACEC Introduction and Aims 1 Introduction and Aims 1.1 The Background 1.1.1 In May 2004 Harlow Council, funded by ODPM, appointed PACEC and Halcrow to develop a Regeneration Strategy and Implementation Framework for Harlow. The context of the project was that Harlow had been identified by the Government as a potential growth area in the Sustainable Communities Plan. Related policy development included Regional Planning Guidance (RPG14) and the East of England Plan. The brief stated that the Harlow Strategy would clearly articulate Harlow’s regeneration needs and priorities for investment, and detail the extent to which these can be achieved through housing growth and other factors. The Framework will be set within the context of a vision for a regenerated Harlow and the role(s) it could play in the sub-region. 1.1.2 The Strategy will: a Build on and develop in practical ways the substantive work already undertaken in the region on alternative growth scenarios, infrastructure and development needs. b Articulate Harlow’s regeneration needs and priorities for investment, and detail the extent to which these can be achieved through housing growth and other factors. c Ascertain how future infrastructure investment opportunities can be realized to bring maximum benefit to the area and people of the town. d Develop a regeneration strategy and implementation framework to feed into the RPP process. 1.1.3 The Strategy will consider three alternative development related scenarios, and short, medium and long term infrastructure and investment needs. The project will involve four stages. An inception stage one which primarily focuses on the regeneration needs and issues and provides an evidence base.

This report describes work which has: • combined a number of spatial data sources to map the distribution of green infrastructure assets across Essex; • identified the functions performed by these assets and the benefits they provide to the local populations; • investigated associations between green infrastructure provision in neighbourhoods and socio-economic characteristics of their resident populations; • examined the prevalence of current green infrastructure assets in the vicinity of proposed sites for future housing and economic development. The results are intended to help identify needs and opportunities to enhance green infrastructure across the county and inform strategic planning in Essex.
