4. Not consistent with National Policy

Paragraph 73 c of NPPF requires strategic policy-making authorities ensure larger scale development provides “sufficient access to services and employment opportunities within the development itself (without expecting an unrealistic level of self-containment), or in larger towns to which there is good access.

Criterion A.2 does not currently refer to employment uses, this needs to be revised to ensure the Masterplan is underpinned by an Employment Strategy outlining the ‘golden thread’ from employment needs, to sectoral requirements and occupier needs, to employment land requirements, and employment floorspace requirements, in line with paragraph 82 of NPPF.

2. Not Justified

ECC as the education authority, advises that the precise timings for when the education provision on site will be open cannot be determined at this stage. This will depend on the types of dwellings to be delivered and their pupil yield. This can only be determined at the planning application stage and the detail indicated in criterion B.3. is best secured through S106. This is standard practice for other large site where a school needs to be provided.

Accordingly, Criterion B.3. of Policy R01 (ii) needs to be deleted.

Representation Summary:

3. Not Effective

Clarity is required for both applicants and decision makers in relation to the policy requirement criterion 4.b for ‘quietway’ cycle routes connecting transfer hubs.

As currently drafted the policy provides limited detail and the supporting text provides no guidance on what a ‘quietway’ cycle route is and their locations, or what a transfer hub is and their locations.

BBC should include appropriate wording within the supporting text to address this.
