Draft Local Plan

Policy 7.4: Housing Land Allocations

Representation ID: 14687

Received: 20/04/2016

Respondent: Hermes Fund Managers Limited

Agent: McGough Planning Consultants

Representation Summary:

Objection related to the Council's new requirement that the phasing of development of Horndon Estate referred to in appendix 2, which is tied into this policy.
The Council has two incompatible positions in respect of phasing the housing delivery on the Horndon Estate:
- The first is the housing contribution of the Horndon Estate identified as part of the current 5 year housing land supply
- The second is set out in the latest draft LDP, where appendix 2 shows the housing coming forward in the medium term i.e. after 5 years.
Our client has been working for some time on a planning application for the redevelopment of Horndon Estate. The new phasing requirement set out in the draft LDP does not appear to be underpinned by any assessment/ evidence and is unjustified. Consequently, our client objects to this policy and appendix 2.

Policy 7.2: Housing Type, Mix, Size and Tenures

Representation ID: 14690

Received: 20/04/2016

Respondent: Hermes Fund Managers Limited

Agent: McGough Planning Consultants

Representation Summary:

Re. Horndon Industrial Park. The allocations are welcomed, but as with previous drafts of the local plan the allowance of 500 dwellings continues to be unjustified. This figure is based on a simple density calculation that does not take account of the design constraints affecting the sites.
The supporting documents attached to this representation include draft masterplans and schedule of accommodation which have been subject to robust analysis of design, site and viability constraints - this has resulted in 324 houses and 63 flats.

Draft Local Plan

Policy 8.7: Local Centres

Representation ID: 14693

Received: 20/04/2016

Respondent: Hermes Fund Managers Limited

Agent: McGough Planning Consultants

Representation Summary:

Para 8.48 - This paragraph acknowledges that West Horndon will be a similar order village centre to Ingatestone once new housing development provides sufficient investment in community, service and retail facilities. However, it then goes one to state "This will need to be considered as part of future Local Plan review". Our client is concerned this could be construed by future decision makers to slow the redevelopment of the Horndon Estate, which is at odds with the spatial strategy of the emerging LDP and there is no justification provided at all.
