  • Five Year Housing Supply Statement for Chorley

    Five Year Housing Supply Statement for Chorley

    Five Year Housing Supply Statement for Chorley May 2020 (Updated March 2021) Introduction 1. The National Planning Policy Framework (the Framework) sets out that local planning authorities should identify and update annually a supply of specific deliverable sites sufficient to provide a minimum of five years’ worth of housing against their housing requirement. 2. This statement covers the five year period 1st April 2020 – 31st March 2025. It sets out the housing requirement for the five year period and assesses the land supply available to deliver the requirement. 3. Overall the statement concludes that there is sufficient land available across the Borough with a 11.2 year deliverable housing supply over the period 2020-2025. Five Year Housing Requirement 4. Central Lancashire Core Strategy Policy 4 sets out a housing requirement of 417 dwellings per annum in Chorley over the period 2010-2026 which is the starting point for calculating the five year supply. This equates to a total of 6,672 dwellings over the plan period. At April 2010 Chorley had prior under- provision of 162 dwellings, which Policy 4 requires the Council to make up over the remainder of the plan period. Therefore, at April 2010 the housing requirement for the Borough was 6,834 dwellings. 5. Table 1 sets out housing completions over the period 1st April 2010 to 31st March 2020. It identifies that 6,010 dwellings have been completed in the period and there is a surplus of 1,678 dwellings above the requirement for that period (taking into account the prior under-provision of 162 dwellings).

    A Short History of the Township of Rivington in the County of Lancaster

    ^|S4ii^^^Si^:liif:;ivills^'; THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES A SHORT HISTORY OF THE TOWNSHIP OF A SHORT HISTORY OF THE TOWNSHIP OF IN THE COUNTY OF LANCASTER WITH SOME ACCOUNT OF THE CI)urcl) anil (grammar ^cl)ool BY WM. FERGUSSON IRVINE PRINTED AT THE BALLANTYNE PRESS, EDINBURGH 1904 57848^ ENGLISH LOCAL •r. •-a uj ^ PA PREFACE intention of this book is not to present the reader THEwith a dry archaeological account of the history of the township. The aim of the writer has been rather to put together a consecutive account of the descent of the Manor and the history of the Church, the old Nonconformist Chapel, and the Grammar School in a popular way, choosing in the main such incidents in the story of Rivington as illus- trate the manners and customs of our forefathers. To some people an account of this kind makes no appeal, but the writer ventures to hope that there are many who, while not attracted by the minutiae of antiquarian research, are sufficiently interested in a general way in the history of their neighbourhood to follow the story with pleasure. The idea of this book originated with Mr. W. H. Lever. When talking over the history of the countryside, Mr. Lever suggested that the scattered facts known about Rivington should be collected into a consecutive story, and this book is the outcome. It is hardly necessary to add how much the writer owes to Mr. Lever for the great interest he has taken in the work as it progressed, and for his constant encouragement and help, especially in giving full access to the Rivington charters and documents, many of which are dated as early as the thirteenth century.

    CHORLEY LIAISON WEDNESDAY, 16TH OCTOBER 2019, 6.30 PM COUNCIL CHAMBER, TOWN HALL, CHORLEY AGENDA APOLOGIES 1 MINUTES OF MEETING WEDNESDAY, 17 JULY 2019 OF CHORLEY (Pages 5 - 8) LIAISON 2 WELCOME BY THE CHAIR 3 ITEM REQUESTED AT THE LAST MEETING: PLANNING ISSUES Adele Hayes (Service Lead – Planning) will attend the meeting to give a short presentation on Planning issues and take any questions. 4 ITEM REQUESTED BY ANGLEZARKE 1. We appear to have an issue with Knotweed near to Anglezarke reservoir and car park. Is there anything we can do about this? Response from the Open Space Strategy Officer: The knotweed would be for the landowner to treat or the members of the parish council once they have the training with the permission of the landowner. Two people from Rivington PC are booked on the upcoming course. 2. Additionally, there is a big issue with anti-social behaviour, dangerous driving and apparent drink/drug taking at viewpoint. The residents living near to viewpoint have expressed particular concern over the speed of the drivers on the country road. Ideas suggested include: Could we put up CCTV & would this be sufficient evidence for prosecution? Could we request an occasional police presence to discourage them? Response from Public Protection: The Councils’ powers are not appropriate for dangerous driving and drug taking, these are direct offences which the Police powers are more appropriate. We do not have the power to identify offenders, we would reply on intel of partners such as the police or members of the public to identify in order for us to consider any appropriate action.
