Draft Local Plan

Figure 7.2: Housing Land Allocations

Representation ID: 14615

Received: 19/04/2016

Respondent: Stonebond Properties Ltd

Agent: Strutt & Parker LLP

Representation Summary:

Re. land between 38-50 Crescent Road [see supporting site location map]. The site is situated within the town of Brentwood, 0.3 miles from the town centre and railway station. It is therefore considered to be a sustainable site capable of accommodating 10 dwellings as set out in planning application 15/01175/FUL. It is therefore considered that the site should be included within Figure 7.2.

The land has not been used in connection with the nursery use and it has been gated off at the entrance from Crescent Road. The site was declared surplus to requirements following the relocation in 2003.

Draft Local Plan

Policy 10.9: Open Space, Community, Sport and Recreational Facilities

Representation Summary:

The DLP does not contain a Proposals Map or include an updated supportive Open Space Assessment to supersede the current 2007 PPG17 Open Space Assessment. We have some concerns that BBC may continue to show the site [land between 38-50 Crescent Road] as Protected Open space as a repeat of the out of date 2005 Replacement Plan without a full and proper assessment of the suitability of such an allocation at this site.

Representation Summary:

Re. land between 38-50 Crescent Road for residential allocation. The NPPF confirms exiting open space of public value and recreational land should not be built on unless criteria are met.

Assessment of open space/surplus to requirements - There is land close to site which offers functional and accessible open space. The land was dealt with and declared surplus to requirements as part of ECC's sale of the land in 2003.

Loss would be replaced by equivalent or better provision - A financial contribution to the improvement of nearby play areas could be provided.

The Open Space is of Amenity Value - The space has little or no public value

Against this background, there would be no merit in retaining an allocation of the land at Crescent Road identified on the accompanying site plan for open space purposes from the 2005 Replacement Local Plan.
