Polling Places, Polling Districts and Polling Stations Review 2019 Review of polling places and polling districts in Central Bedfordshire Central Bedfordshire Council is conducting a review of its polling districts and polling places as required by the Review of Polling Districts and Polling Places (Parliamentary Elections) Regulations 2006. Although the review is primarily of polling places and polling, districts, it is recognised that polling stations will also be relevant to the review. The review is an ideal opportunity for electors, community groups and any interested persons within Central Bedfordshire to express their opinions on the existing polling places, districts and stations, and to suggest alternative options for consideration. Definitions A polling place is the area in which the Returning Officer will allocate a polling station. The polling place should be designated so that the polling station is within easy reach of all electors from across the polling district. A polling district is a geographical area created by the sub-division of a parliamentary constituency for the purposes of a UK Parliamentary election. A polling station is the room or area within the polling place where voting takes place. As part of the review process, the authority is required to: seek to ensure that all electors in the constituency have such reasonable facilities for voting as are practicable in the circumstances; seek to ensure that so far as is reasonable and practicable the polling places and stations are accessible to people with disabilities; when considering or reviewing the designation of a polling place and station, have regard to the accessibility needs of disabled persons. If you wish to comment on the existing provisions or suggest any alternative solutions, please take part in this consultation by completing this questionnaire or visit our website at www.centralbedfordshire.gov.uk/consultations. The consultation is open from 29 October 2019 until 11 December 2019. Please return completed questionnaire to: Electoral Services, Central Bedfordshire Council, Priory House, Monks Walk, Chicksands SG17 5TQ.

The parcel is only separated from the settlement edge to the sprawl of large, built- south by occasional hedgerow trees. However, the low hedgerows, and intermittent up areas hedgerow trees along the remaining boundaries provide little separation between the parcel and the rolling farmland beyond the parcel to the north, west and east, so that despite its proximity to Luton, the parcel relates more strongly to the wider countryside and its release would constitute significant sprawl into the countryside. Purpose 2: The development of the parcel would result in little perception of the narrowing of the gap Preventing the between neighbouring towns because the larger towns to the north of Luton, including merger of Flitwick, are separated by the chalk escarpment running east-west which would limit the neighbouring towns impact. Purpose 3: The proximity of the adjacent residential settlement edge has some urbanising influence on Safeguarding the the parcel particularly as the occasional hedgerow trees on the boundary offer little countryside from separation. However, there is no urban development within the parcel itself and openness encroachment and undulating topography of the parcel give it a stronger relationship with the wider downland countryside.
