Local Plan 2015-2030 Preferred Options for Consultation

Representation ID: 890

Received: 27/09/2013

Respondent: Sport England

Representation Summary:

Appears to be no assessment in place for built facilities. Outdoor sport is addressed within the Brentwood Open Space Study (OSSRFA) (2007), which is now out of date and therefore does not meet requirements of NPPF Par 73. Sports need assessments have a life of between 3 and 5 years - 3 if it has not been kept up to date with an annual action/monitoring plan and up to 5 if it has. The OSSRFA is now 6 years old (base data likely to be 7 years old) and falls outside both yardsticks.
