AS we approach May s election, control of Colchester Council is teetering on a knife-edge. The town hall is controlled by a coalition of Labour and the Lib Dems, who together hold 24 seats. There are 51 seats in the borough, meaning the coalition is technically a minority administration. The Highwoods Independents were part of what was then called the rainbow alliance , but 18 months ago they packed their bags. Support is now on a vote by vote basis, meaning there are some crunch votes on contentious issues. The Conservative Group are the largest group on the council, holding 21 seats. In May they need to secure an additional five, as well as hold all of their existing ones, to hold an overall majority.
WE already have magnificent contenders for the title of champion oak within the Colchester borough. The competition is open until March 20, so, if you are interested, fetch your coat, a ball of string and a tape measure. Head for the great outdoors, find that tree and win the £40 prize. All you need do is measure the circumference of the tree you find on your wanderings using the Woodland Trust’s Oak Age Estimator, which you will find on their website. Before introducing you to some of the entries, let me introduce an ancient survivor - heavily damaged, decaying but alive.
PLANS for where thousands of new homes will be built in Colchester over the coming decades will be examined at a series of special hearings. A Government Planning Inspector will go through Section Two of Colchester Council s local plan, which sets out the authority s strategy for growth to 2033 and beyond, during a series of virtual hearings. Under the proposals around 920 homes need to be built in the borough every year. The sessions will cover the policies to shape development and maps for considering planning applications as well as site allocations for new homes, employment and infrastructure across the borough. Residents who have submitted representations on the plan will be given the opportunity to speak at the hearing or submit further written information to the inspector.
