3.         INTRODUCTION

 

This Annual Report outlines the workings and operations of the Parish Council during the last municipal year 2007/8.

 

The aim of the report is to give a better understanding of the role the Council plays in issues relating to Lancing, and its communities, as well as the work the Council has been involved in, and carried out, over the past year.

 

To understand the role and responsibilities of the Parish Council, in relation to other Councils and bodies, it is useful to have some knowledge of its operations and make up, and in this respect it is hoped that the information below will offer a brief but informative guide to what the Parish Council is, and does.

 

History:

 

The Lancing Parish Council has been in existence since 1894 and has been representing the communities of Lancing continuously since that time.

 

It is publicised in some books that Lancing is the largest Village in England although it is unclear whether this relates to the number of residents residing in the parish or total area.

 

The current Parish Hall in South Street is partly built on the site of the old Lancing Fire Station which dates back to the late nineteenth century. The most recent addition was the building of the Jubilee Hall which was opened in 1976.

 

What is the Parish Council?

 

The Parish Council is the third tier of local government – the first tier being West Sussex County Council and the second Adur District Council.

 

Lancing Parish Council makes every effort to represent the views of, and provide the best possible service to residents of Lancing, through its own operations and by close liaison and partnership working with the District and County Councils and other representative bodies and agencies in the community.                         

                           


 

Parish Councillors

 

There are currently sixteen (16) Councillors that sit on the Parish Council, and these are democratically elected on a four year cycle basis. A new Council was elected in May 2008 and details of the current ward Councillors can be found later in this report.

 

The sixteen Councillors represent the four electoral wards of Lancing (four for each ward) which are Mash Barn, Manor, Churchill and Widewater.

 

Committee Structure

                                                                                                                   

The Council has three programme Committees which deal with the varied and extensive activities and issues that are carried out, and affect, residents of Lancing.

 

The Full Council has all sixteen Councillors represented on it, while the Amenities & Environment, Finance & General Purposes and Planning Advisory Committees have nine Councillors each. Each of these Committees meet on a monthly basis with the exception of the Planning Advisory Committee which meets twice monthly.

 

The public can attend any of these meetings and can ask questions on any of the operations of the Council.

 

Agendas and dates of meetings can be found on the Lancing Parish Council Notice Boards at the Parish Hall and outside the Post Office in North Road, Lancing or by visiting the Lancing Parish Council’s web site www.lancingparishcouncil.gov.uk.

           

Copies of agendas and minutes are also available for public inspection at the Parish Hall, Lancing upon request.

 

The Community of Lancing

 

Lancing currently has a population of approximately 18,700 persons, 14,680 of whom are on the electoral register.

 

The area spans from the lower part of Western Road in the west northwards to Lancing Ring, east to the River Adur with the southern boundary being the English Channel.

                                                                                          


 

What the Parish Council Costs

 

The Council spent just over £321,077 last year (2007/8) to carry out its operations and works in the community.

 

The Council generated £131,532 in income from assets and bookings in the past year.

 

The difference was raised through a precept on the Council Tax.

 

For explanation purposes, the Council Tax bill for last year, for a band D property in Adur was £236.52.  For the same band D property in Lancing the bill was £268.47 a difference of £31.95 which came to the Parish Council (approximately 61pence per week per household).

 

Community Assets

 

The Parish Council, on behalf of the community of Lancing, is responsible for, and operates, a large number of assets.

           

These include:-

10.       CHAIRMAN’S ANNUAL REPORT MAY 2007 – MAY 2008

 

Councilor Angie Mills

 

I was re-elected for a second term of office for the parish May 2007 – 2008.

 

In May we held meetings with Inspector Hobbs and the Community Police.

He told that the youth problem in Lancing was being looked into and a campaign called respect was now in force.  This seems to be working and the local crime rate is down.

 

In June we had the blessing of the boats with a record crowd attendance on Beach Green.

 

I would like to thank the Rotarians, The British Legion, Boundstone School, The Boundstone Community Band, Local Scout & Guide Groups, for all their kind invitations during my past year.

 

Special memories of Remembrance Day service and the Hollocaust Day, we must not forget.

 

During this last year we said goodbye to Richard Wickens who had been Clerk to the Parish for 7 years, I wish him and his family all the best for the future and thank him for all his hard work in the past.

 

Once again the Christmas Eve in the town was a lot of fun, thank you all for supporting the local shops and a big thanks to David Steadman, the towns Co-ordinator.

 

This year saw Local and District Elections and I would like to say congratulations to all the successful candidates and wish them all the best.  We also have a new Clerk starting in June.

 

I am standing down as a Parish Councillor due to extra duties in the District Council with the joining in partnership with Worthing, but still remain the Ward Councillor for The Manor until 2010, any problems, regardless of your political pervasions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me – Lancing is my main priority at Adur District Council fighting for your causes.

 

Last years main ones were the Hospital and the Post Offices, Speed reduction on the A259 Now 30 m.p.h. all the way.

 

Seems like the hospital at Worthing is safe but we lost the Post Office fight; sorry.

 

Thank you all for your support during my time on the Parish.

 

 

 

 

Councillor A. Mills

(Past Chairman)
