Reference: No Summary: To update members on waterways projects in development and delivery, placing them in context with the Fens Waterways Link and then looking at proposed future projects too. Actions Required: Members are asked to: 1. Note the progress to date of the waterways programme and the impact it has had on the economic prosperity of the county 2. Comment on the projects that are currently being developed 3. Comment on the use of the remaining waterways capital budget and the ongoing role of the County Coucnil in relation to the Fens Waterways Link 1. Background Lincolnshire Waterways Partnership In 2000, the county council and partners undertook a review into the opportunities for using tourism to drive economic growth. The review identified three main priorities: Historic Lincoln, destination management system, and Lincolnshire Waterways. In order to deliver the waterways programme, the Lincolnshire Waterways Partnership (LWP) was established. The partnership is co-ordinated by the county council and also includes the Environment Agency and British Waterways. The framework for the LWP comprises eight objectives: Improving the existing resource Extending the network Developing Regional Links Page 1 Developing Recreational Use of the Network Promoting the Waterways Urban and Rural Regeneration Engaging with Local Communities Developing the Partnership As well as delivering locally focused schemes, the main challenge for the LWP is to support the delivery of the Fens Waterways Link which will connect Lincolnshire’s waterways with those in the fens through the creation of a navigable link between Boston and Ely.

Such an idea of inheritance finds an apt symbol in St Clement’s Church. This beautiful house of God was built in the eleventh century, carefully restored in the nineteenth, and continues its presence and mission now in the twenty-first. We are tasked today with ensuring that Fiskerton carries on for centuries further in a way that preserves what we love while providing for future needs. Rural villages today are faced with a difficult balancing act between preserving the characteristics which make them so attractive and meeting the demand for new housing across the country.
