Surnames L-M Porter, Johanna From: Wayne Lamport < > Sent: 27 September 2014 08:05 To: Reviews@ Subject: Objection to Woking Boundary changes Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Flagged To whom it may concern, I would like to express my objection to the draft changes to boundaries of Woking. I live in Hollies Ave in West Byfleet and under the new proposals, our road, together with Woodlands Ave and Old Ave would now come under the ward of Sheerwater. My objections are based on the following; I live approximately 800 yards from West Byfleet village/train station and under the draft proposals I will not be able to vote/have a say on matters affecting West Byfleet, which of course is totally unacceptable. The needs of the residents of Sheerwater are different to those of West Byfleet I chose to buy a house in West Byfleet, not Sheerwater and have invested a lot of money into my property and therefore I am concerned in house prices. As far as I know no‐one has undertaken any investigation on the possible effect of houses prices, again totally unacceptable. I do no believe the proposed re‐generation of Sheerwater has been taken into consideration when calculating ward sizes, therefore will totally skew the sizes of wards once the re‐generation is complete.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In November 2011 Woking Borough Council appointed JKN Associates to undertake a review of the Playing Pitch Study they produced in 2006. Within the timescale and available resources the methodology adopted for this piece of work centred on desk research, consultation with key stakeholders and site visits. The review focussed on the changes that have occurred to the supply of facilities in the last six years and the changes in the demand for pitch sports over the same period. Unlike many local authorities that have produced Playing Pitch Strategies, Woking Borough Council have used the previous 2006 document and action plan as a working tool to guide capital investment. The findings from this new study can be used in a similar manner to aid investment decisions to 2016/21.

It aims to analyse the current playing pitch provision within the local authority boundaries and make recommendations on future pitch provision and development proposals. The key objectives of the study were: · An analysis of the current level of pitch provision within the borough, including those not available for community use. · A review of the quantity and quality of local authority pitches across the borough including the identification of pitch problems · An identification of how facilities for pitch sports can be improved, e.g. changing pavilions and training pitches · The identification of demand for pitches in the borough · The development of policy options · The provision of recommendations for playing pitch provision, protection and enhancement to include Synthetic Turf Pitches (STP) · The development of local standards reflecting both qualitative and quantitative issues In addition to pitch sports the report considers, at the request of the Council, a selection of other sports including Athletics, Basketball, Tennis and Bowls but the assessment of these sports is less objective as the playing pitch methodology can only be applied to pitch sports.
