Premier League, 2018–2019
Premier League, 2018–2019 “The Premier League is one of the most difficult in the world. There's five, six, or seven clubs that can be the champions. Only one can win, and all the others are disappointed and live in the middle of disaster.” —Jurgen Klopp Hello Delegates! My name is Matthew McDermut and I will be directing the Premier League during WUMUNS 2018. I grew up in Tenafly, New Jersey, a town not far from New York City. I am currently in my junior year at Washington University, where I am studying psychology within the pre-med track. This is my third year involved in Model UN at college and my first time directing. Ever since I was a kid I have been a huge soccer fan; I’ve often dreamed of coaching a real Premier League team someday. I cannot wait to see how this committee plays out. In this committee, each of you will be taking the helm of an English Football team at the beginning of the 2018-2019 season. Your mission is simple: climb to the top of the world’s most prestigious football league, managing cutthroat competition on and off the pitch, all while debating pressing topics that face the Premier League today. Some of the main issues you will be discussing are player and fan safety, competition with the world’s other top leagues, new rules and regulations, and many more. If you have any questions regarding how the committee will run or how to prepare feel free to email me at [email protected]. -

This document represents the fourth LAA for the mineral planning authorities of East Sussex County Council, Brighton & Hove City Council and the South Downs National Park Authority and examines updates to the position on aggregates supply and demand since the time of last reporting in 2015. The first three LAAs concluded that a significant proportion of local consumption was derived from either marine dredged material, crushed rock or land won aggregates extracted from outside the Plan Area. -

Cycling Ambition in National Parks: Request for Funding Proposals
Cycling Ambition in National Parks: Request for funding proposals Information Note and Application Form 1. The Cycling Ambition Grants (CAG) Fund launched in 2013. The aim was to invest in cycling infrastructure, supporting the Coalition Government’s vision to achieve a step change in cycling. The Government sees that greater levels of safe cycling in and around National Parks can unlock a range of cross cutting economic and social benefits that enable growth, such as improved health and wellbeing, higher productivity through improved fitness, improved public realm and attractive spaces, unlocking capacity on road and public transport networks, creation of new social enterprises and businesses which support cycling services and better linked communities enabling more choice for getting around within and between neighbourhoods. 2. The Department continues to be keen on supporting initiatives which are part of a strategy geared to supporting more cycling in rural areas. The Department looks favourably on schemes that have a strategic approach, are sustainable and support the future development of the local cycling infrastructure. Successful schemes should: • encourage and enable recreational visits to, from and around National Parks by cycle; • encourage and enable people living and/or working in and around National Parks to travel for day-to-day journeys by cycle. 3. Grants provided to Authorities - partnered with National Parks - were to deliver infrastructure improvements to enable more people to cycle in and around the National Parks. Four National Parks (and eight Cities) were funded in 2013 through the CAG programme. 4. The Department has now identified a surplus of capital funds to the value of £1.575m, which it wishes to re-allocate through a mini-competition. -

8. Strategic Sites
8. STRATEGIC SITES Introduction 8.1 This chapter sets out the policies for the strategic sites within the National Park. These sites represent one-off opportunities for developments of exceptional quality. They have the potential to make a substantial contribution towards sustainable growth and deliver multiple ecosystems services, which in turn promotes the National Park’s purposes and helps to achieve the vision set out in this Plan. The strategic sites are: Shoreham Cement Works, Upper Beading; and North Street Quarter and adjacent East gate area, Lewes. 8.2 Whilst the former ‘Syngenta’ site in Fernhurst is also a strategic site, it has already been allocated for a sustainable mixed-use development incorporating residential (approximately 200 homes), commercial development and other suitable uses in the Fernhurst Neighbourhood Development Plan (NDP), which was made in 2016. 8.3 This chapter identifies how the strategic sites can collectively and individually contribute to meeting the National Park’s purposes, and how their development could be justified by exceptional circumstances and be in the public interest, in accordance with Policy SD3: Major Development in the South Downs National Park. 8.4 There are also three strategic housing allocations, these are set out with all the other allocations in Chapter 10. Land at Old Malling Farm in Lewes (Allocation Policy SD77) is a greenfield site that will make a significant contribution to meeting the unmet housing need of Lewes and was originally allocated in the Lewes Joint Core Strategy. The Depot / Brickworks site and former Holmbush Caravan Park, both located in Midhurst and both brownfield sites, will contribute significantly to the unmet housing need of Midhurst.
