An extra £50,000 has been made available by the Executive Board for each Area Committee to spend in 2007/08. It was noted at the September Area Committee meeting that the funding cannot be spent on projects that include on-going costs and that the Executive Board have identified two areas of strategic importance that they would like Area Committees to consider when deciding how to spend this money. The two areas for consideration are: § Carrying out a Conservation Area Review of conservation areas in their geographical area; § Introducing Residents’ Only parking / extra parking provision in particular areas of concern. 11. It was agreed at the September Area Committee that the sum should be split evenly between the three wards, therefore providing an allocation of £16,667 per ward. Harewood & Wetherby 12. It was agreed that consideration should be given to utilising their sums for a Conservation Area Review(s ) in order to maintain the supplementary local planning guidance which was of great value and importance to local residents. 13. The department responsible for designating and reviewing Conservation Areas, which is a planning function, is the Sustainable Development Unit (SDU) in City Development. 14. The Sustainable Development Unit confirmed the cost to undertake these reviews and this is set out in the table below. SDU felt it appropriate to make a reduction of up to £1,000 for those areas where neighbourhood design strategies are in place or underway. Extra Allocation Alwoodley Harewood Wetherby Wetherby Conservation Review £8,000 Boston Spa/ Thorp Arch £7,500 Conservation Review Thorner Conservation Review £7,000 Bardsey Conservation Review £7,000 Total Spent £0 £14,000 £15,500 Total Allocated £16,667 £16,667 £16,667 Total Remaining £16,667 £2,667 £1,167 15. Members approved the allocation of £29,500 at the December Area Committee to fund four Conservation Area Reviews in Thorner and Bardsey in the Harewood ward and Wetherby town and Boston Spa and Thorp Arch in the Wetherby ward. Alwoodley 16. In respect of the Alwoodley Ward, as there are no conservation areas, Members are pursuing proposals for additional parking provision. Revenue Projects for Consideration Wetherby Community Gardener – ONE.07.36.LG – £19,900 - Wetherby 17. Research carried out by CABE has found that there is a significant gap between the overall quality of City and Countryside Parks and the quality of Community Parks, which are lower. The provision of site based gardeners has been highlighted as a way of addressing this problem. 18. The community gardener in Wetherby will operate from the Wetherby Leisure Centre and from a storage container on the Station Road car park. The sites covered by the project will include Wetherby Ings, Wilderness, Harland Way and Sandringham Road Play Area (when constructed). 19. The gardener has already been working in the area for two years maintaining plants and keeping green spaces clear and litter free. Positive feedback has been received from local residents and Wetherby Town Council. The funding will provide this service for a further year. Summer Sports Activities – ONE.07.32.LG – £7,550 - Harewood and Wetherby 20. The course will provide a week of Sports / Recreational Activities during the summer holidays from Monday 28 th July 2008 to Friday 8 th August 2008 at Wetherby and Boston Spa High Schools for 8 – 13 year olds in North East Leeds, for children and young people of all abilities. 21. The project will provide sporting activities for local children who wish to stay active throughout the Summer Holidays and who wish to try different activities. The aim is to encourage more children to play sport on a regular basis at their local sports club. Local clubs from the Outer North East of Leeds will help to deliver the coaching and fun sessions. Barwick Maypole – ONE.07.30.LG - £5,000 – Harewood 22. The Barwick in Elmet Maypole Trust have applied for £5,000 worth of funding towards the tri-annual maypole event to be held on the 26 th May. The presence and traditions associated with the Maypole date back to at least Domesday Book times, and it is reputedly the tallest in Great Britain. The pole is lowered each 3 rd Easter and re-placed and is accompanied by a series of customs and traditions. 23. The £5,000 application will pay for items such as mechanical equipment to lift the pole, a stage, insurance, fencing, a marquee and traffic management. Capital Projects for Consideration 24. There are no capital projects for consideration at this Area Committee meeting. Projects in Development 25. The following projects are in development. This means that the Area Management Team is working with an organisation to ensure that any proposal submitted is linked to one or more of the Area Committee priorities, and that full application forms with appropriate information are submitted for each one.

It then follows the south bank of the river Wharfe, marking the 19th-century Linton/Wetherby tithe boundary, as far as Wetherby Bridge.

Finally, the route cuts into the disused rail-bed, north of the town, and follows its path around Wetherby’s western edge, crossing back into Linton and returning along the south bank of the river Wharfe, to the Wetherby Leisure Centre carpark.

It identifies areas within and adjoining the two settlements where potentially significant effects upon the historic environment are anticipated, for example where development would impact upon significant elements of the setting of a heritage asset. It is intended as an initial baseline to inform more detailed site-specific studies for the settlement. The archaeological potential of land falling within the setting of the study areas is not considered within this report.

  • November 2019
    November 2019 Perhaps some day the sun will shine again, And I shall see that still the skies are blue, And feel once more I do not live in vain, Although bereft of You. Perhaps the golden meadows at my feet Will make the sunny hours of spring seem gay, And I shall find the white May-blossoms sweet, Though You have passed away. Perhaps the summer woods will shimmer bright, And crimson roses once again be fair, And autumn harvest fields a rich delight, Although You are not there. Perhaps some day I shall not shrink in pain To see the passing of the dying year, And listen to Christmas songs again, Although You cannot hear.
