Report of Consultation Highland Wide Local Development Plan REPORT OF CONFORMITY WITH PARTICPATION STATEMENT Introduction The Development Plan Scheme (DPS) 2009 detailed the way in which the Highland Council would produce the Highland wide Local Development Plan. The purpose of the Highland wide Local Development Plan is to put in place what the policies will be for decisions made on planning applications across the Highland Council area. This Plan will draw together and replace many of the planning policies contained within the existing Local Plans, particularly those that relate to the general approach to development. It will also act as a replacement to the policies in the Highland Structure Plan, which we are no longer required to prepare. It will differ from the previous plans by providing greater consistency, by tackling new issues and by concentrating on topics and areas that can/will change. The Highland wide Local Development Plan will set out some of the main growth areas for the Highlands, and put in place guidance on how these specific areas should be developed over the next ten to twenty years. Purpose The purpose of this report is to demonstrate that the consultation on the Highland wide Local Development Plan – Proposed Plan has met with the participation statement as set out in the Development Plan Scheme which was in place at the time of consultation. As this report is to be submitted as part of the Examination on the Highland wide Local Development Plan the report will cover the following stages of the preparation of the local development plan: Main Issues Report (DPS Spring 2009 in place when document published) Proposed Plan (DPS Summer 2010 in place when document published). Standards for Community Engagement Planning Advice Note 3/2010 – Community Engagement replaced Planning advice Note 81- Community Engagement and sets out the National Standards for Community Engagement and how these can be delivered through land use planning. The Highland Council are committed to using these standards and in doing so we have utilised VOiCE (Visioning Outcomes in Community Engagement) to plan, monitor and, in time, evaluate community engagement. A report has been taken from VOiCE and is included as Appendix 5 to this document. In addition the Council produced consultation plans to enable it to prepare for the consultations on both the Main Issues Report and the Proposed Plan. Highland wide Local Development Plan 1 Conformity with Statement of Participation Main Issues Report The first stage in preparing the new Local Development Plan was the Main Issues Report. This set out our general proposals for development in the area and in particular proposals as to where development should and should not occur. It also contains one or more reasonable alternative sets of proposals where appropriate. Main Issues Report Consultation Methods The consultation on the Main Issues Report was held from 31st August 2009 until 9th November 2009. In the Development Plan Scheme 2009 we set out a range of consultation methods we would use to give people the opportunity to have their say on the Main Issues Report. These are outlined in the table below along with how and when these were carried out. How? When? Exhibitions Belladrum Music Festival, Belladrum Estate (06/08/09-08/08/09) Eastgate Centre, Inverness (12/09/09) Nairn Court House (31/10/09) Longman Traveller Site Annual Barbeque (28/08/09) Information Days Wick (31/08/09) Durness (02/09/09) Thurso (03/09/09) Fort William (09/09/09) Portree (11/09/09) Ullapool (15/09/09) Tain (16/09/09) Drumnadrochit (21/09/09) Gairloch (24/09/09) Mallaig (02/10/09) Inverness (05/10/09) Dingwall (06/10/09) Golspie (09/10/09) Aviemore (30/10/09) Workshops Members workshop (18/05/09) SEA Consultation Authorities Workshop (02/06/09) Gypsy/Traveller Community (number of dates) Meetings Regular meetings with SHN, SEPA, Scottish Water and Transport Scotland.

Provide Feedback forms online and hard Hard copies of feedback forms available copies at all events and on request. Online feedback forms provided and a webform was available for use. Publicity of the Plan From the publication of the Highland Development Plan Scheme 2009 a number of publicity events/media publicity has been used. Statutory Publicity Legal Adverts have been placed in the Press and Journal for both the SEA and publication of the Main Issues Report. The Press and Journal published these adverts on the 31st August 2009 to coincide with the launch of the public consultation. The Press and Journal was used as it is a Highland wide publication therefore helping us to reduce costs. Non-Statutory Publicity A profile raising advert and poster campaign was run through libraries and Council service points in addition to the use of the Vue Cinema in house magazine. This profile raising campaign ran from April 2009 - July 2009. A series of press releases were issued by the Council to give more detail on the publication of the plan, events and how to get involved in the plan making process. A number of interviews have been broadcast on local radio stations in the Highland area, to help publicise the plan and to let people know more about events happening in their area. Posters advertising the information days have been distributed to members of the community via Ward Managers where possible and have been available to download from the website so the community can also display posters if they feel they would like to help promote the plan. Highland wide Local Development Plan 3 Conformity with Statement of Participation Attendance at local events such as the Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival helped raise awareness of the consultation prior to its start. This event was well attended by people from all over Highland and it gave people the opportunity to shape the content of the Main Issues Report. In addition to the statutory advert placed in the Press and Journal on the 31st August 2009 we also placed a full colour half page advert in the front of the paper raising awareness and giving details of scheduled events, how to get in touch, what a Main Issues Report is and giving an open invitation to the public that if they had a group which would like to know more about the Highland wide Local Development Plan we would endeavour to attend one of their meetings. Following the consultation on the Main Issues Report, all of the issues raised in the 332 responses to the Main Issues Report were considered by the Development Plans Team. The issues were grouped and responded to by Development Plans Team to inform the next stage of the plan making process, the Proposed Plan. Highland wide Local Development Plan 4 Conformity with Statement of Participation Highland Wide Local Development Plan - Proposed Plan The proposed Plan Consultation ran from 24th September 2010 – 3rd December 2010 In the Development Plan Scheme Summer 2010 we set out a range of ways we would facilitate community engagement on all of our documents including the Highland wide Local Development Plan – Proposed Plan. In producing the Development Plan Scheme 2010 we changed the format to make it easier to understand following feedback from members of the public and the development industry. Below is each of the statements from the Development Plan Scheme 2010 Participation Statement and how we met these: Work closely with the local media to let you know about how you can get involved Series of Press Releases on the plan (May 2010 – December 2010); Legal Adverts were placed in the Press and Journal for both the SEA and publication of the Proposed Plan. The Press and Journal published these adverts on the 24th September 2010 to coincide with the launch of the public consultation. The Press and Journal was used as it is a Highland wide publication therefore helping us to reduce costs. Radio interviews on local radio station with chairman of Planning, Environment and Development Committee (selection of dates on Moray Firth Radio). Make responses to our consultations available online To help people understand the issues which had been raised at the main issues report stage of the plan all responses to Main Issues Report were made available online The Development Plan Team’s consideration of the issues raised at the Main Issues Report Stage were published online prior to the Proposed Plan being taken to committee. Ask you for feedback on how we are getting you involved A random sample of 100 respondents were chosen from the respondents to the Main Issues Report Consultation to give feedback on how we were getting people involved in the plan making process so far. We received a total of 3 responses and we are taking the comments received on board to improve any future consultations.

  • Introduction the Place-Names in This Book Were Collected As Part of The
    Introduction The place-names in this book were collected as part of the Arts and Humanities Research Board-funded (AHRB) ‘Norse-Gaelic Frontier Project, which ran from autumn 2000 to summer 2001, the full details of which will be published as Crawford and Taylor (forthcoming). Its main aim was to explore the toponymy of the drainage basin of the River Beauly, especially Strathglass,1 with a view to establishing the nature and extent of Norse place-name survival along what had been a Norse-Gaelic frontier in the 11th century. While names of Norse origin formed the ultimate focus of the Project, much wider place-name collection and analysis had to be undertaken, since it is impossible to study one stratum of the toponymy of an area without studying the totality. The following list of approximately 500 names, mostly with full analysis and early forms, many of which were collected from unpublished documents, has been printed out from the Scottish Place-Name Database, for more details of which see Appendix below. It makes no claims to being comprehensive, but it is hoped that it will serve as the basis for a more complete place-name survey of an area which has hitherto received little serious attention from place-name scholars. Parishes The parishes covered are those of Kilmorack KLO, Kiltarlity & Convinth KCV, and Kirkhill KIH (approximately 240, 185 and 80 names respectively), all in the pre-1975 county of Inverness-shire. The boundaries of Kilmorack parish, in the medieval diocese of Ross, first referred to in the medieval record as Altyre, have changed relatively little over the centuries.

  • BCS Paper 2017/74 2018 Review of UK Parliament Constituencies Draft
    Boundary Commission for Scotland BCS Paper 2017/74 2018 Review of UK Parliament Constituencies Draft Revised Proposals for Argyll and Bute, Highland and Moray council areas Action required 1. The Commission is invited to consider responses to the initial and secondary consultation on its Initial Proposals and whether it wishes to make changes to its proposals for Argyll and Bute, Highland and Moray council areas. Background 2. These constituency designs are based on a UK electoral quota of 74,769.2 electors and parliamentary electorate figures from the December 2015 Electoral Register. The electorate of constituencies has to be within 5% of the electoral quota, namely no fewer than 71,031 and no more than 78,507, unless the area of a constituency exceeds 12,000 square kilometres. No constituency may exceed 13,000 square kilometres. 3. The total electorate in the 3 council areas is 307,418, giving a theoretical entitlement to 4.11 constituencies. It is possible, therefore, to design 4 constituencies, exactly covering the combined council areas, the electorates of which are within the limits set by the legislation. 4. The Commission's Initial Proposals for this area comprise 4 constituencies which exactly cover the combined extent of these 3 council areas. A map of the constituencies is at Appendix A.

To this we owe in part the com- ing of our own early ancestors to these isles.

She was born an only child as Robina Boyle Gormley (Namesake of her maternal Grandmother, Robina Boyle McGuire) on March 21, 1937 to Charles Joseph and Mary (McGuire) Gormley in Glasgow, Scotland. Ruth’s childhood home was The Morningside District of Edinburgh, Scotland.

Ruth was a member of the Dallas Chapter of the Daughters of the British Empire. She was a music teacher at Good Shepherd Catholic School in Garland, St. Phillip The Apostle Catholic School in Dallas and the Jewish Community Center in N. Virginia. Affectionately known as “Mumsie” within the family, we will always remember Ruth’s lovely countenance and her gift to make you feel special. She had a uniquely peaceful aura and was always a proper lady with perfect Continental table manners she learned from her Mother and in turn, passed them on to her children. Ruth had a very close relationship with her Dad. He encouraged her often to keep up with her music, tennis and netball; he pushed her to practice and develop skills and be competitive. He demanded excellence; she always had a strong desire to ‘win’ as a result. As a child, she enjoyed Highland Dancing and Scottish Country Dancing.
