Agenda Document for Council, 28/02/2019 10:00 Date: 18 February 2019 Member Services Your reference: Corporate Services Directorate Our reference: LAS/JG Town Hall Ask for: Julie Grundy Lancaster Road Preston PR1 2RL www.preston.gov.uk tel. 01772 906112 [email protected] To: Members and Officers of The Council Dear Sir/Madam Budget Council - 28 February 2019 You are requested to attend a meeting of the Council to be held on Thursday, 28th February, 2019 at 10.00 am in the Council Chamber, First Floor, Town Hall, Preston. The business to be transacted at the meeting is set out in the Agenda overleaf. Disclosure of Interests In addition could I please draw your attention to Item No. 2 on the Agenda which relates to the need to declare any personal/prejudicial interest or disclosable pecuniary interest (which is not included in the register of interests). May I remind Members that they must not vote on any business relating to the calculation required for the setting of Council Tax and related matters, and any decision which affects the Council Tax calculations if they are in arrears of Council Tax (at least two months since it became payable). Please see my earlier letter, sent by email, dated Monday 11 February 2019. As you know the process of making declarations at the meeting of Council is a statutory requirement, however, it can sometimes be time consuming during the meeting. Therefore it would be helpful in speeding up the progress of the meeting if Members would notify Julie Grundy in writing or by email of an interest(s) they need to declare in the light of the contents of the agenda prior to the day of the meeting. Could Members also indicate the nature of the interest, whether it is a disclosable pecuniary interest, Personal (and/or Prejudicial), and to which item on the agenda it relates. Ally Brown Director of Corporate Services A list of interests to be declared will be on deposit at the meeting. It is then proposed that the Mayor, in introducing Item No. 2, will indicate that these notifications are taken as declarations for the purposes of the requirements of the Code of Conduct for Members. If Members fail to notify any declarations in advance they will have to make verbal declarations at the meeting but it is hoped this can be avoided. If a Member requires general advice on declarations of interest, he/she is advised to contact Julie Grundy, Caron Parmenter or Adrian Phillips. Tea and coffee will be available in the Council Annexe from 9.00 am onwards. Yours faithfully Ally Brown Director of Corporate Services Council Thursday, 28 February 2019 Agenda Part A (Open to Press and Public) 1.

  • Stage 1 – Planning the Assessment
    CENTRAL LANCASHIRE STRATEGIC HOUSING LAND AVAILABILITY ASSESSMENT September 2010 Although not published until later the main work on the Central Lancashire SHLAA was carried out prior to the revocation of the North West Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS) and therefore refers to RSS policies and housing targets. The Central Lancashire authorities are currently in the process of proposing local housing targets. The SHLAA will therefore be updated to remove references to the RSS and reflect local housing targets when these have been approved for publication within the joint Central Lancashire LDF Core Strategy. 2 CONTENTS Introduction Planning Policy Context Methodology Stage 1: Planning the assessment Stage 2: Determining which sources of sites will be included in the assessment Stage 3: Desktop review of existing information Stage 4: Determining which sites and areas will be surveyed Stage 5: Carrying out the survey Stage 6: Estimating the housing potential of each site Stage 7: Assessing when and whether sites are likely to be developed Stage 8: Review of the assessment Stage 9: Identifying and assessing the housing potential of broad locations Stage 10: Determining the housing potential of windfall APPENDIX 1 – Sites under 5 dwelling capacity included within the 5 year supply figures APPENDIX 2 A & B – GVA Grimley Stage 7c Report & Addendum List of Tables Table 1: Central Lancashire authority RSS housing targets Table 2: Chorley sites considered unsuitable Table 3: Preston sites considered unsuitable Table 4: South Ribble sites considered

  • Preston 1973-2012
    Preston City Council Election Results 1973-2012 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.
