Background Information for the Further Electoral Review 2012 BACKGROUND INFORMATION FOR THE FURTHER ELECTORAL REVIEW 2012 Introduction A Further Electoral Review (FER) of the electoral arrangements of City of York Council will commenced in June 2012. There were a number of separate briefing sessions for all City of York Council members, parish councillors and Officers held between December 2011 and March 2012. The purpose of the these sessions was to explain the method, objectives and timetable of the FER The Council’s existing electoral warding scheme was introduced by an Order following a Period Electoral Review by the then Local Government Commission for England in May 2001, the review was undertaken to address imbalances in ward councillor to elector ratios from the warding scheme adopted on the creation of the Unitary Authority of City of York Council in April 1996. Profile of York City of York Council encompasses approximately an area of some 28,000 hectares with a population of around 202,000 people. The council area has parished rural areas totalling 32 parishes and a city centre that is unparished. The Council area includes the urban settlement of York and several large settlements that include Haxby, Wigginton and Strensall that are located in the rural areas of the council boundaries. The urban area of York is located both sides of the River Ouse and River Foss, that flow south to the Humber Estuary. York lies close to Leeds, the largest urban conurbation and is located in the Vale of York that stretches south west of the North York Moors National Park. York is a very popular tourist location, with excellent transport links that includes the East Coast mainline railway and Transpennie rail line to Manchester and Liverpool. The road network includes the A64 trunk road to Leeds and A19 trunk road to Newcastle (and the North East of England) with close proximity to A1 motorway. Among York’s popular visitor attractions are the famous York Minister, the largest Gothic cathedral in Europe, The National Railway Museum, the Castle Museum, the Yorkshire Museum, the Jorvik Viking Centre and long established racecourse at the Knavesmire. York still has medieval walls that surround the centre part of old city, and reflects that York’s history can be traced far back in the history of England, Existing Electoral Arrangements City of York Council was formed in 1996 as a new Unitary Authority, the new Council was created from the previous York City Council and an amalgamation of parts of Harrogate District Council, Ryedale District Council and Selby District Council; these areas were all made up from existing parish councils or town councils. The shadow elections in 1995 for the new Unitary Authority were run on hasty devised ward structures, with a range of member representation of between single member wards, two member wards and three member wards. The original number of wards was 29 with 53 members. In 1999 the then LBCE undertook a review to address the imbalances with a full PER, the result was that the number of wards was reduce to 22 with 47 members, keeping a mix of single, two and three member wards. This is the current warding arrangements and was introduced for the full council elections in 2003. The review considered the number of members at 47 representing 3271 electors, a ratio that with projections would ensure equal elector representation by ward councillors. City of York Council was aware of a number of large developments in the next ten years and the five-year projection of electorate statistics did take these in to account. The current existing ward pattern is: 7 Single member wards 5 Two member wards 9 Three member wards City of York Council also has a large number of parish councils and a single town council of Haxby that is warded that form a ring around the old York City Council boundaries. Local Government Boundary Commission for England The LGBCE is responsible for conducting reviews of local authority arrangements. They can also conduct reviews on the structure of local government and the external local authority boundaries. The Commission was established on 1st April 2010 when the form Boundary Committee for England was abolished. The Commission is comprised of a chair, a deputy chair and four commissioners who are supported by Review Officers. The aim of the LGBCE’s Electoral review is to improve electoral equality. This is achieved by ensuring as councillors represent far as practicable the same number of electors. This may result in an increase or decrease in both councillors and wards for a local authority area. The electoral review looks at the following arrangements: The total number of members to elected to the council; The number and boundaries of electoral areas (ie: wards) for the purpose of the election of councillors; The number of councillors for any electoral area (ie: wards) of the local authority; and The name of any electoral area. The LGBCE have three types of electoral reviews, depending on the needs of the local authority and the reason for undertaking the review. Criteria for Further Electoral Review The LGBCE have two set criteria for undertaking a Further Electoral Review, these are : 30% of the councils wards are at an electoral variance of more than 10% from the average* one ward has an electoral variance of more than 30% from the average. In regards to City of York Council, Fulford Ward is minus 32% below the average. *The average refers to that set for each councillor in the previous review in 2001, which was set at 3200 electors per councillor. Governance of the Council City of York Council has agreed a Constitution which sets out how the Council operates, how decisions are made and the procedures which are followed. These procedures will ensure that decisions are taken at the right time, by the right body, considering the right issues and options and will be non- bureaucratic, transparent, accountable to local people and deliver Council priorities. Some of these processes are required by law, while others are a matter for the Council to choose. The Constitution is divided into articles that set out the basic rules governing the Council’s business. How the Council Operates Council is composed of 47 Councillors elected every 4 years. These Councillors are known as elected Members. Councillors are democratically accountable to residents in their ward. The overriding duty of Councillors is to the whole community, but they have a special duty to their constituents, including those who did not vote for them. All Councillors meet together at meetings of the Council which are open to the public. Here Councillors decide the Council’s overall policies and set the budget each year. The Council appoints one Councillor as the Council Leader. The Leader and seven other Councillors appointed by the Council form the Cabinet. The Council also appoints Committees, including Ward Committees to deal with local matters, and a Scrutiny Management Committee with standing Scrutiny Committees to look at the effectiveness of the Cabinet and help develop Council Policy. The Council employs a variety of staff to deliver services to the community. These staff are known as “Officers”. Some officers have a specific duty to ensure that the Council acts within the law. This Constitution sets out the basis of these responsibilities in protocols that governs the relationships between officers and Members of the Council. How decisions are made The Cabinet is made up of a Leader and up to nine other Councillors who are called “Cabinet Members”. The Leader appoints Cabinet Members, gives them areas of responsibility and allocates decision making powers. When major decisions are to be discussed or made, these are published in the Cabinet’s Forward Plan so far as they can be anticipated. If these major decisions are to be discussed at a meeting of the Cabinet, this will generally be open for the public to attend except where confidential matters are being discussed. The Cabinet has to make decisions which are in line with the Council’s overall policies and budget. If it wishes to make a decision which is outside the budget or policy framework, this must be referred to the Council as a whole to decide. Citizens have a right to have a say about decisions which affect them, and should be able to understand what decisions have been taken and why. While the Cabinet undertakes all the local authority functions, the role of Full Council is still to set and agree budgetary and policy framework for the authority. The Full Council meets monthly at the historic Guildhall on the 19th of each month in the Council Chamber, currently the monthly meetings of the Cabinet meet are local venues around the council area to encourage public engagement in meetings. Overview and Scrutiny There is one Overview & Scrutiny Management Committee together with specific scrutiny Committees whose job it is to look into how effectively the Council and NHS institutions are serving the needs of their communities. The Overview & Scrutiny Management Committee produces reports and recommendations which advise the Cabinet and the Council as a whole on its policies, budgets and service delivery, as well as looking at reviews of individual services and cross cutting issues to see if they provide best value for local people. In addition the Overview & Scrutiny Management Committee may also be consulted by the Cabinet or the Council on the development of the policy. The Overview & Scrutiny Management Committee monitors the decisions of the Cabinet and the Council. They can “call-in” a decision which has been made but not yet implemented. This enables them to consider whether the decision is appropriate.

  • 2017 City of York Biodiversity Action Plan
    CITY OF YORK Local Biodiversity Action Plan 2017 City of York Local Biodiversity Action Plan - Executive Summary What is biodiversity and why is it important? Biodiversity is the variety of all species of plant and animal life on earth, and the places in which they live. Biodiversity has its own intrinsic value but is also provides us with a wide range of essential goods and services such as such as food, fresh water and clean air, natural flood and climate regulation and pollination of crops, but also less obvious services such as benefits to our health and wellbeing and providing a sense of place. We are experiencing global declines in biodiversity, and the goods and services which it provides are consistently undervalued. Efforts to protect and enhance biodiversity need to be significantly increased. The Biodiversity of the City of York The City of York area is a special place not only for its history, buildings and archaeology but also for its wildlife. York Minister is an 800 year old jewel in the historical crown of the city, but we also have our natural gems as well. York supports species and habitats which are of national, regional and local conservation importance including the endangered Tansy Beetle which until 2014 was known only to occur along stretches of the River Ouse around York and Selby; ancient flood meadows of which c.9-10% of the national resource occurs in York; populations of Otters and Water Voles on the River Ouse, River Foss and their tributaries; the country’s most northerly example of extensive lowland heath at Strensall Common; and internationally important populations of wetland birds in the Lower Derwent Valley.

    Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment Appendix 1: Sample letter, questionnaire and list of consultees 1 Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment 1st October 2008 Dear Sir or Madam Assessment of the Suitability and Availability of Potential New Housing Sites City of York Council is preparing a Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA). The SHLAA seeks to identify potential future housing sites and assess whether such sites are deliverable and/or developable in order to help demonstrate a future supply of housing within York. As part of the consultation in Spring 2008 on the Key Allocation Development Plan Document, the Council undertook a ‘Call for Sites’ inviting landowners, agents and the wider public to submit information on any potential housing locations by suggesting sites of 0.2 hectares or larger. The Council is now required, as part of the SHLAA, to assess these sites for their suitability, availability and achievability following guidance set out by the government1 and the Regional Practice Guide2. We are contacting you because you have either submitted a site as part of our ‘Call for Sites’ process or we have identified you as having a connection with a site that has been submitted. We would like to invite you to fill in the attached proforma to provide the Council with the necessary background information in order to assess the suitability of site(s) submitted. We would also like to ask if you would like to be involved in reviewing the draft SHLAA once we have collated the information on the sites. We envisage that this consultation will take place in November.

  • Community Safety Overview and Scrutiny Committee Restructure Of
    Community Safety Overview and Scrutiny Committee Restructure of North Yorkshire Police 1. Background 1.1 On Monday (13 December 2010) the Home Office announced grant funding settlements for police forces in England and Wales incorporating a 5.1% reduction. For North Yorkshire Police, this equates to a reduction of approximately £24m by 2014/15. This settlement ensures comprehensive plans to balance the budget will have to be put into action. North Yorkshire Police force will undergo a significant restructure to maximise efficiency whilst protecting front- line service delivery. 2. Introduction 2.1 It is recognised that public sector spending cuts will have significant implications for the police service. As a service, policing has had a “can do” ethos and will rise to the challenge, but it is recognised this will not be easy. Nationally it is understood that there are difficult choices ahead for police leaders at all levels of the service; for police partners; and for government. 2.2 The scale of cuts that are before North Yorkshire Police force are, however, so significant that “protecting the frontline” cannot mean maintaining the front line at current levels”. In this context protection is more about mitigating the impacts and ensuring all other avenues for efficiencies are exploited, before reaching the point where frontline resources are reduced. This includes changing the way we use and deploy officers to maximise their impact in the community. 2.3 The reviews that have been undertaken in North Yorkshire Police have helped the organisation further understand the demands it faces on a day to day basis across the force wide area (North Yorkshire & City of York).

  • Local Plan Area
    CHAPTER 2 - PLANNING CONTEXT & STRATEGY CHAPTER 2 PLANNING CONTEXT AND STRATEGY THE LOCAL PLAN AREA 2.1 Harrogate District is one of the largest and most attractive in England. It extends over an area of 1,308 square kilometres (505 sq. miles) to the north of the Leeds/Bradford conurbation and on the eastern fringes of the Yorkshire Dales. It is broadly contained to the east by the Rivers Swale, Ure and Ouse, which flow southward through the Vale of York. The River Wharfe marks the southern boundary of the District, while to the west and north, the land rises to form the Pennine upland chain. Figure 1 shows the District in its regional setting. Four parishes (Nether Poppleton, Upper Poppleton, Hessay and Rufforth) were transferred from Harrogate District to the new City of York Council area as a consequence of the local government reorganisation on 1 April 1996. This Local Plan is based on the revised administrative boundary of the District. FIG 1. REGIONAL SETTING 4 Augmented Composite - July 2009 HARROGATE DISTRICT LOCAL PLAN February 2001 CHAPTER 2 - PLANNING CONTEXT & STRATEGY 2.2 Although Harrogate District includes a number of important urban areas, it is essentially rural in character, containing about 150 villages and hamlets. The District is renowned for the quality and diversity of its landscape and wildlife. The western upland part of the District, centred on Nidderdale, was designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in 1994. The District contains numerous, very popular countryside sites such as Fountains Abbey, Brimham Rocks and How Stean Gorge together with a considerable number of historic country houses, parks and estates which are attractive features and make a significant contribution to landscape variety.
