Following amendment of the original recommendation of the Civic Affairs Committee, Council AGREED:
(1) To agree the alternative boundary, as shown on the green line, less the red cross hatched area, in the newly circulated map marked L1; and
(2) To make a request to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) to re-align the County Council boundary along the new parish boundary.
The Committee
RECOMMENDED THAT COUNCIL
A) Agree the alternative boundary, as shown on the green line in the attached map, less the red cross hatched area.
B) Make a request to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) to re-align the County Council boundary along the new parish boundary.
The Committee
AGREED To defer this decision for four weeks to allow the two parish councils to hopefully meet to discuss and resolve this matter. The Committee will meet on 4 January 2018 to make a recommendation to the Council meeting on 25 January 2018.
The Civic Affairs Committee
RECOMMENDED TO COUNCIL No change in the parish boundary (Option C).
This item was deferred to the next Civic Affairs Committee meeting.
The Civic Affairs Committee NOTED that a Community Governance Review of the Parish boundary between Willingham and Over would be undertaken in view of the required number of signatures to instigate such a review having been received and verified.
