Appendix 5 Letters to Consultees and Viewpoint Respondents. 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The adopted Erewash Borough Local Plan (1994) is in need of replacement as a revised Derby and Derbyshire Joint Structure Plan is nearing completion and the 1994 Erewash Borough Local Plan only has this year to run. Accordingly, a replacement Erewash Borough Local Plan has been prepared and placed on first deposit. 1.2 This report on public participation and consultation describes the steps taken by the Borough Council to inform and involve consultees and the public at large about the preparation of the plan in accordance with the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and the Town and Country Planning (Development Plan) (England) Regulations 1999 which stipulate:- para.39 (1990 Act) (i) A local planning authority who propose to make, alter, repeal or replace a local plan shall proceed in accordance with this section. (ii) They shall take such steps as will in their opinion secure - (a) that adequate publicity is given to the proposals in the area to which the plan relates; (b) that persons who may be expected to wish to make representations about the proposals are made aware that they are entitled to do so; and (c) that such persons are given an adequate opportunity of making such representations. para. 21 (1999 Regulations) The local planning authority shall prepare a statement of any persons they have consulted when preparing a plan or proposals to which regulation 22 refers, and of any steps they have taken to publicise their plan or proposals and to provide persons with an opportunity of making representations in respect of that plan or those proposals. 2.0 PUBLICITY AND CONSULTATIONS 2.1 Plan preparation has been undertaken since 1998 and although it is a replacement local plan it contains many of the proposals included in the 1994 local plan as these have been found to work satisfactorily and did not require updating or refinement. Many new proposals have also been included in the new plan, taking account of changes to Planning Policy Guidance Notes, other government advice, the replacement Derby and Derbyshire Joint Structure Plan and other statements, studies and advice notes prepared by statutory and non-statutory bodies. 2.2 Throughout the period of plan preparation consultations have been held with statutory bodies and interested parties:- * Erewash Borough Council - Engineering Services Leisure Services Environmental Health Housing Chief Executives * Derbyshire County Council - Environmental Services Education Corporate Resources * Environment Agency * Severn Trent Water Authority * Highways Agency * Railtrack * Coal Authority * Government Office for the East Midlands * Various Planning Consultants and Landowners * English Sports Council * Farming and Rural Conservation Agency * Transco * Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food 2.3 The first formal stage of plan preparation was the approval of the local plan timetable on 26 July 2000, together with the approval of procedures for preparing the plan. This was duly given publicity (see press release in appendix). 2.4 Prior to the plan being reported to Members of the Council, local plan seminars were held on 5 July and 15 July 2000, with the purpose of informing Members about the local plan process, issues, planning policy guidance notes, sustainable development, the Derby and Derbyshire Joint Structure Plan and broad principles which had to be addressed in drawing up the replacement local plan. No matters of detail as regards proposals or the proposals map were released at these seminars. 2.5 The first consideration by the Council of the replacement local plan was at the Policy Development and Review Scrutiny Panel held on 17 August 2000. This meeting was preceded by a presentation about the contents of the plan and the thinking behind it. All Members of the Council were invited to this presentation. 2.6 Following the meeting of the Policy Development and Review Scrutiny Panel, the replacement local plan was presented to the Council Executive on 20 September 2000 and finally it was presented to the Ordinary Council on 5 October 2000, where it was approved for the purposes of consultation and formal deposit and it was resolved that a period of consultation be undertaken prior to the plan being placed on deposit. 2.7 The first stage of this consultation process was the inclusion of a local plan supplement in the Borough Council’s community newspaper - “Viewpoint” which was published in November 2000. The supplement outlined the thinking behind the plan and the issues, but not the detail of the replacement plan as it would not be available to the public until the deposit period (March 2001). A questionnaire was included in the supplement and a freepost address for the return of the questionnaires. 2.8 Viewpoint (see copy in appendix) was delivered to nearly every household in the Borough (97%) and made available at all Council offices, public libraries, sports centres, doctors surgeries and other outlets frequented by the community. 2.9 No specific deadline was placed on returning the questionnaire and these have been returned throughout November, December and January. To date 493 questionnaires have been returned and the comments received will be considered alongside formal objections and representations of support made during the first deposit period. The questionnaires will therefore be considered as the plan progresses from first deposit to second deposit. A summary of the comments received is set out in the appendix. 2.10 The Borough Council has set up a series of community forums across the Borough, enabling local people to discuss issues with officers and be involved in the local government framework. 2.11 As part of the local plan consultation process, the local plan has been presented to every community forum. This took the form of an exhibition, an officer presentation, questions from the floor and an opportunity before and after the meeting to discuss the new plan with the planning officer. A questionnaire, as distributed in Viewpoint, was also made available. 2.12 Community forums were all well attended and were held on:- 6 November 2000 Draycott 9 November 2000 West Hallam 8 January 2001 Ilkeston 18 January 2001 Sawley 20 January 2001 Petersham 22 January 2001 Sandiacre 23 January 2001 Long Eaton 29 January 2001 Draycott 31 January 2001 Cotmanhay 1 February 2001 Kirk Hallam Details of attendances are shown in the appendix. Each community forum was also advertised in local newspapers (see appendix). 2.13 A third part of the local plan consultation process involved writing to every consultee on the local plan data-base to inform them that the plan was being prepared and would be placed on first deposit in March. Comments on matters of principle or planning issues that a consultee might wish to bring to the attention of the Borough Council were invited and a deadline of 8 January 2001 was given. Copies of these letters are attached in the appendix. The list of consultees is also attached in the appendix. 2.14 This report demonstrates that Erewash Borough Council has involved consultees in the local plan making process and due regard has been given to comments received.

  • Researched by Elizabeth Kay and Liz Priestley
    Researched by Elizabeth Kay and Liz Priestley Introduction In 2005-2006 members of the Village Improvement Committee, a sub-committee of Spondon Community Association transformed the disused cemetery in Chapel Street, Spondon into a sensory garden. The sensory garden was officially opened on Saturday 17th June 2006 by the Mayor of the City of Derby, Councillor John Ahern. It won a Derby in Bloom award shortly after opening. The cemetery The burials in the cemetery are dated between c. 1840-1890. The need for a new burial space had arisen because the clergy, had over time, acquired some of St Werburgh’s Churchyard as part of the Vicarage walled garden. In 1839, after heated debates about this matter, the patron of the living, Rob Holden Esq, offered parishioners a piece of land (twice the amount), adjoining the new School Room, if they relinquished all claims to the Vicarage garden. St Werburgh’s old school, built in 1839, can be seen on the left-hand side of the cemetery. The cost of building the school was £700 and accommodated 220 pupils, who paid two pence a week to attend. It was enlarged in 1880 and could accommodate up to 550 children. In 1969 a new school was built just across the road. A notice in the Derby Mercury 31 May 1848… Thomas Dimock (deceased). For sale by auction two newly-erected dwelling houses with stables and out buildings situated at Stoney Cross by the side of the turnpike between Spondon and Borrowash. These properties were let to Mrs Land and William Locker.

  • Erewash Borough Council (Richard Green)
    Resources Directorate , Planning & Regeneration Town Hall Long Eaton Derbyshire NG10 1HU Switchboard: 0115 907 2244 E Mail: [email protected] Please ask for: Richard Green Direct Tel: 0115 9072244 x3152 Our Ref: EBC Date: 29 April 2014 Dear Sir/Madam, Aligned Core Strategy Proposed Main Modifications Consultation (Nottingham City, Broxtowe and Gedling). The recently adopted Erewash Core Strategy has been produced in broad alignment with the Aligned Core Strategies of Broxtowe Borough, Gedling Borough and Nottingham City Councils, as the Borough forms part of the Nottingham Core Housing Market Area. Erewash Borough Council believe that working together to prepare broadly aligned strategic policies with the other Greater Nottingham Councils (also including Rushcliffe Borough Council) has led to effective and more joined up planning outcomes, whilst making best use of resources by sharing staff and expertise, whilst also providing value for money by sharing the cost of producing much of the common evidence base. This partnership working has also enabled the Council’s to fulfil their statutory Duty to Cooperate. Erewash Borough Council therefore welcomes the opportunity to comment on this consultation and largely supports these proposed modifications. However, Erewash Borough Council would like to point out in relation to Proposed Main Modifications C259a & C264a that it has yet to make a decision on the merits or otherwise of an extension of the tram route into Erewash Borough. Indeed the recently adopted Erewash Core Strategy makes no reference to this matter and it also did not form any part of the Borough Council’s response to the HS2 Ltd Phase 2 line of route consultation (see attachment).

Introduction 1.1. Ashfield, Broxtowe, Erewash, Gedling, Nottingham City and Rushcliffe Councils are working jointly in order to prepare evidence to support the emerging aligned Core Strategies and Local Development Frameworks within their districts. Nottinghamshire County Council is assisting in this work. Part of the evidence base will be to inform the authorities about suitable settlements for the location of appropriate levels of development. 1.2. The aim of any spatial development strategy is to ensure that new development takes place at the appropriate scale in the most sustainable settlements. Most development should be concentrated within those settlements with the largest range of shops and services with more limited development within local service centres and villages.

As promised in the last volume of the Marriage Registers of Derbyshire, the marriage records of St. Alkmund's form the first instalment of the Registers of the County Town. The Editors do not doubt that these will prove especially interesting to Derbyshire people. In Volume V they hope to print further instalments of town registers in the shape of those of St. Michael's and also some village registers. It will be noticed that St. Alkmund's register begins at the earliest possible date, 1538, but of the remainder, two do not start till the seventeenth century and one, that of Quarndon, synchronizes with the passing of Lord Hardwicke's Marriage Act. 1379092 It will be convenient to give here a list of the Derby- shire parishes of which the Registers have been printed in this series: Volume I.

Squirrels are storing acorns, small mammals are searching out hibernation habitats and volunteers are pulling on extra layers as we continue to manage the site. The hazel groves are being coppiced to allow new growth in the spring, crowded trees are being thinned and saplings are being given space to grow by removing vegetation. We have had spectacular success this year in developing our pond and marsh areas, filled naturally through rainfall and ‘run-off’ and they look as though they’ve been there for ever. Aquatic life is burgeoning and we hope that the wild flower seeds planted around the perimeter and in the grasslands will survive the season and start to bloom next Spring. We’re also giving three enthusiastic young people the opportunity to undertake important conservation work as part of their Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme. Over three months they’ll be creating a new woodland ‘ride’, closed to people but opening up a wildlife corridor for flora and fauna.

    West Hallam War Memorial 1939-1945 In Memory of Our Fallen The induction took place on Friday October 28th 1938 of the Reverend William Richard Lloyd Jones to the Rectory of West Hallam. Eleven months after being in office, War was declared on Germany. He is still remembered today, for his help and support given to many parishioners during this difficult time. He was also responsible for extending the churchyard extension and raising funds for a much needed new Rectory. He left West Hallam in November 1945, being replaced by Reverend Gordon Charles Craig Spencer. His first community project was to erect a war memorial to remember our fallen. A committee was formed, giving them the responsibility of selecting the type of memorial required and the names that would be listed upon it. The Memorial Committee Secretary Mr. Bacon issued this notice: West Hallam War Memorial Committee (Notice) Criteria Required The above Committee will settle the final list of names of West Hallam Men and Women who died between the War Years 1939-1945.
