Draft Local Plan

079A Land adjacent to Ingatestone by-pass

Representation ID: 15932

Received: 12/05/2016

Respondent: CALA Homes

Agent: JB Planning Associates Ltd.

Representation Summary:

Site 079A does not contribute to any of the five purposes of Green Belts and is fully consistent with both the NPPF and the Council Spatial Strategy which seeks to identify urban extensions in the Green Belt with clear defensible physical boundaries.

Its location is within walking distance of sustainable transport connections and the allocated employment land on site 079C.

Technical work demonstrate that the site can deliver 57 dwellings, higher than identified in the Plan (42 dwellings). For a more efficient use of land, it is entirely appropriate for the site to be a developed at a higher density than 30 dph

Policy 7.2: Housing Type, Mix, Size and Tenures

Representation ID: 15943

Received: 12/05/2016

Respondent: CALA Homes

Agent: JB Planning Associates Ltd.

Representation Summary:

Agree with this approach. A balance will need to be found when developing the proposals for the site at the planning application stage to ensure that efficient use of land is made to provide a mix of housing on site to meet a range of needs, whilst also delivering a development that is viable and appropriate to the character and context of the site and its surroundings.

079A Land adjacent to Ingatestone by-pass

Representation ID: 15948

Received: 12/05/2016

Respondent: CALA Homes

Agent: JB Planning Associates Ltd.

Representation Summary:

Agree with the Council's decision to identify the site to come forward in years 1 to 5, which is supported by SHLAA (2011) which identifies that there are no achievability concerns with the site, and no active uses that will affect its availability. In view of this, and the emerging development proposals for the site, we do however consider that the site is capable of delivering homes sooner and at a higher rate than currently anticipated by the Council.

Consider that it is entirely appropriate for the site to be developed at a higher density than 30 dph demonstrating a more efficient use of land. A development of 57 dwellings is considered more appropriate and one supported by the SHMA
