Supported Local Bus Services with Appendices
Page 1 – Supported Local Bus Services Agenda I tem: Cabinet 8 Date of Meeting 4 December 2013 Cabinet Member(s) Hilary Cox – Cabinet Member for Environment Local Member(s) All Members Lead Director Miles Butler – Director for Environment Subject of Report Supported Local Bus Services Executive Summary A proposal was previously submitted to the Cabinet to reduce the future levels of public bus subsidy by £850,000. At the meeting on 17 July 2013, Cabinet deferred a final decision on subsidy levels in order to seek the views of parish and town councils on the impact of the preferred Option 3. Subsequent to the Cabinet meeting it was also decided to undertake public consultation through the Dorset For You online consultation portal. Responses received from the consultation exercise, along with revised proposals for Dorchester Town bus services to be changed in advance of the final plan were presented to Cabinet for the meeting on 6 November 2013. This report takes account of representations made through the various consultations and presents recommendations for: Core savings of £970,279 Reinstatement of routes £95,000 Transfer to Community Transport budget £25,000 TOTAL SAVINGS £850,279 Concerns were raised by Members and the public who attended the Cabinet meeting on 6 November 2013 and these have been addressed by this report. Page 2 – Supported Local Bus Services Since the Cabinet meeting on 6 November 2013 a commercial bus route has been de-registered. This will provide an extra pressure to the public transport budget and the details are provided in part 6 of this paper. -

First from education, next from running a Diocesan Retreat House, and then 3 years ago, from ministry. Not a rec- ord, perhaps, but retirement suggests slippers and leisurely cups of tea in the garden. Why doesn’t it work like that in reality? I still seem to be happily busy – taking services, occupied with voluntary work, singing in choirs, taking music lessons, and having a wonderful social life! But there is a cautionary note. A recent health scare caused me to con- sider – as one frequently does at a certain age – my own mortality. Death holds no perils, but I’m just not ready for it yet, so I thought I’d write my- self a letter and share it with you, as you may be in the same situation. -

There are six con- tributors in this edition and of these one was a complete surprise. Roy Ald- worth, one of the three founders of the Pavey Group, without a hint of his inten- tions, submitted an article that proved to be a delightful memoir of his child- hood, which even he will admit was some time ago now. Well done Roy and thank you for your special moments. Peter Childs has sent the second of his conversations in a dialect of nine- ty years ago. The events are real as were the characters and indeed the tragic history of the loss of the HMS Formidable of 1915. The Tales from the Forge is an excellent format Peter - I’ve been trying to reproduce those glorious dia- lect sounds, unsuccessfully I might add. May I have many more opportunities. -

The Agency Board decided to extend this consultation process to demonstrate its real commitment to openness and accountability by holding national AGMs in England and Wales and seven regional AGMs in September 1998. As well as being open to the public, people representing a wide range of interests are being invited to attend these events. The purpose of each AGM is to enable the Agency to report on its recent achievements, outline current work and consult on some of our key priorities. This feedback will be used in our future planning. To help this process we will present three national documents at our AGMs - our Annual Report and Accounts, Annual Corporate Plan, and first Environmental Report. -

The Mosaic Hinton St Mary November 2020
The Mosaic Hinton St Mary November 2020 The Yard (Alice Fox-Pitt) What a weird time we are in. Despite the global pandemic, horses need to be fed and worked so despite lockdown work had to continue at Woodlane Stables. Firstly we need to say a big thank you to the village for putting up with the constant stream of horses hacking round the village, we apologise for any inconvenience. Hinton St Mary is the perfect place to train horses and we feel very lucky. The yard used to be one of three dairies in the village but it was converted in 2004 and we moved the first horses in in 2005. We train horses owned by clients for William to compete. William also trains up and coming star riders from all over the world. This year we had a team from South Africa, the US, Japan, Germany, Ireland, Wales, Scotland and Newcastle. Jackie Potts is our head girl and this weird year was her 27th working with William. Obviously, the big disappointment for us was the postponement of the Olympics due to be held in Tokyo in August. William has been training hard on his star horse Little Fire, who is in the British squad of 12. It would be an incredible 6th Olympics should he make Team GB having competed in Atlanta, Athens, Beijing, London and Rio. It was a huge blow for our Japanese star Kazumo Tomoto. He has been here for three years training for a home games. His daughter and wife have stayed at home in Tokyo so it has been a huge sacrifice and commitment. -

Agenda Item 3 North Dorset District Council Council
AGENDA ITEM 3 NORTH DORSET DISTRICT COUNCIL COUNCIL Date of Meeting: 18 December 2013 REPORT TITLE: PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOUNDARY COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND’S DRAFT RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A NEW WARDING PATTERN FOR NORTH DORSET Portfolio Holder: Cllr Val Pothecary, Community and Regeneration Report Author: Democratic & Electoral Services Manager Purpose of Report: To consider amendments proposed to The Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s draft recommendations for a new warding pattern for North Dorset. Statutory Authority: Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009 Financial Implications: There are no financial implications associated with this report. Consultations required/ All North Dorset District Councillors undertaken: Recommendations: To recommend alternative proposals, set out in paragraphs 8 to 11, and Appendicies 1 to 4 of this report, to The Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s recommended Warding Pattern for North Dorset. Reason For Decision: To ensure that the new Warding pattern for North Dorset recognises and reflects community and local identity and the historic links of the parishes, whilst ensuring electoral equality is achieved across the district. BACKGROUND 1. In early 2012, The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) advised the Council that it would be undertaking a Further Electoral Review of North Dorset, looking at both the number of Councillors and the Ward boundaries. 2. In October 2012, the Council submitted a document to the LGBCE regarding Council size recommending that the Council should retain 33 Councillors. The submission gave evidence relating to the governance and management structure of the Council, scrutiny work, work on outside bodies and also the Members’ representational role. -
Blandford's Contribution to World War
BLANDFORD'S CONTRIBUTION TO WORLD WAR TWO compiled by M.J. Le Bas 2020 7.12 BLANDFORD PREPARES FOR WAR With war looming in 1939, Blandford Camp was reactivated a s a t r a i n i n g c e n t r e f o r reservists called up, and for new r e c r u i t s s e e n here. Many new huts were built for accommodation, as most of the huts from WW1 had long since been demolished or sold on. Some became the huts for the Blandford Scouts in Eagle House Gardens. INVASION? In 1940, Blandford received prominence when Prime Minister Churchill declared Blandford must become 'a strategic tank island to be defended at all costs'. This was in response to the threat of German invasion after the Fall of France in May. The German plan, one of many, was to land in August 1940 on the Dorset Coast “Operation Sealion”, and strike northward rapidly to the Bristol Channel, thereby capturing Blandford featured strongly in the German at a stroke the ports of Devon and plans. It lay on one of three routes the German Cornwall and enabling the landing Army would have taken, the others being of German forces unopposed. Maiden Newton and Fordingbridge, with Blandford and the crossing of the River Stour at it's bridge, being the most advantageous route. LOCATION ? . In order to confuse the invaders, town signs were ordered to be removed, here in particular the word BLANDFORD that was prominently displayed on street and sewer drain covers, and on the charity boards in the Parish Church. -
