A parish meeting consists of the local government electors registered for the area for which it is held. In a parish in England where no parish council exists, the district or unitary authority must establish a parish council if the population includes 200 or more local government electors.
If the population includes more than 150 but less than 200 electors, the district or unitary council must establish a parish council if the parish meeting resolves that one should be established. This power is discretionary if the parish is already grouped under a common parish council. More »
Where the population includes not more than 150 local government electors, the district or unitary council may create a parish council if the parish meeting so resolves.
A parish meeting is not a corporate body and is therefore unable to own property or sue or be sued.
Generally speaking it is not a local authority, though for certain limited purposes it may be regarded as one. Its lack of legal personality has not prevented Parliament from enabling it to exercise functions.
Its powers are not as extensive as those of a parish council, although on application the district authority may by order confer on the meeting any or all functions of a parish council.
The parish meeting should assemble annually between 1 March and 1 June and on at least one other occasion during the year. « Less
The draft development plan for the East Midlands Region proposes that one of "the best opportunities" to provide the bulk of additional new housing "lie west of Leicester in Blaby (between the A47 and the M69)": that is in Lubbesthorpe parish.
This small rural parish now acts as a "green wedge" between Braunstone to the east, Leicester Forest East to the north and Enderby to the south-west.
The proposal for building a new large housing estate is in addition to the large-scale M1-M69 motorway junction redevelopment. It also involves building extra roads linking with the A47 Hinckley Road and Lubbesthorpe Way section of the A563 ring-road. More »
The Braunstone Town Council website has more information on the scheme.
Representations submitted during this consultation will be considered by an independant Panel at an Examination in Public due to be held in May 2007.
Once approved by the Secretary of State the Regional Plan becomes part of the Development Plan for Blaby District. The District would then be obliged to meet the housing and employment requirements.
