We have just had our 30th AGM where we reflected on the year making note of our achievements and challenges, which includes our 30th anniversary, the rekindling of our social events and not to forget the ‘walking and talking’ aspect. The challenges faced and which will continue are Network Rail issues, GDPR and Data Transition. All of these issues will continue to progress in 2019 and we will gather and reflect your comments to and from Area. I have reviewed all the programmes 2017/18 just to get an idea of the walking distance and believe it or not the Group has walked over 788 miles, more or less from Lands End to John O’Groats. This does not include any pre- walks or detours!! This is some achievement with only 31 walk leaders, who collectively put on 125 walks. I would like to extend my thanks to every walk leader, back marker and the Committee members who have ensure everything has run smoothly in putting the programmes together, communicating information and delivery of walks. Great team work makes happy walkers. Page 1 Can I be the first to wish everyone a Happy Christmas and Happy New Year. My last word for now: May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon the fields May the muddy bogs and styles be few and May there be plentiful bushes for your convenience.

  • AREA APPRAISALS and MAPS 1. Introduction 1.1 This Document
    APPENDIX 1: AREA APPRAISALS AND MAPS 1. Introduction 1.1 This document provides details of the proposed neighbourhood planning areas and their boundaries, appraises the proposed Areas and makes recommendations for their approval. Maps of the Areas can be found in: Appendix 2: Spitalfields Neighbourhood Planning Area Appendix 3: Limehouse Neighbourhood Planning Area Appendix 4: Isle of Dogs Neighbourhood Planning Area 2. Background 2.1 As a Local Planning Authority, the Council has a statutory duty to determine applications to establish Neighbourhood Planning Areas in accordance with the relevant Regulations: TCPA 1990, Section 61G(2)b, Section 61G(4)b, Section 61G(5-7) and Section 61H(3). 2.2 In accordance with the above regulations, Neighbourhood Planning Areas can cover areas within Tower Hamlets and across borough boundaries with our neighbouring planning authorities of Hackney, Newham, London Legacy Development Corporation and the City of London. They can be any shape or size and only one Neighbourhood Area can cover any one location so there can be no overlapping between Areas. 2.3 Neighbourhood Planning Areas are proposed by Neighbourhood Planning Forums via an application submission, then assessed by Council Officers who then make recommendations to the Mayor for decision at Cabinet. The Council’s decision is guided by the Regulations, which advise the Council to: consider the desirability of maintaining existing boundaries of Neighbourhood Planning Areas already designated; designate all or part of the initially proposed Area (the Council cannot refuse to designate an Area outright) and in so doing consider what Area is appropriate to be designated; consider if the Area is wholly or predominantly business in nature.
