south gloucestershire local plan

Since the Core Strategy and the Policies, Sites and Places Plans were adopted we have entered into period of significant challenge and change. We want to work together to raise ambition, open new learning pathways and ultimately drive up attainment and opportunity for all of these children. Do you think there are any other issues we should consider in this policy? Our values underpin all that we do and how we work. The fund will be administered by the Council and will be collected via Section 106 agreements. Surveillance and overlooking into rear parking courts can be restricted by property boundaries meaning residents do not have a direct view of their vehicles. These documents contain a wide range of adopted planning policies, and will be used to determine planning applications until they are replaced. Council Plan 2020 - 2024 | BETA - South Gloucestershire Council Council Plan 2020 - 2024 This document sets out our plans for achieving the best for our residents and their communities.. THE SOUTH GLOS COUNCIL LOCAL PLAN See http://www.westerleighparishcouncil.org.uk/planning-and-the-parish-council/ RESPONSES TO PLANNING APPLICATIONS Jan 2022 - All Planning Applications will continue to be listed here. Priority 4 Realising the full potential of our people and delivering value for money. Pre-application engagement on these complex projects can require significant levels of officer input over many months or years for more complex projects. For information existing guidance (to support existing policy PSP6) explains how to calculate the total residential energy use and can be viewed here (insert hyperlink). It is important to engage with local communities at an early stage in the development process. We have also suggested nine priorities to address these issues. Given the location of the existing power station on the edge of the Severn Estuary and surrounded by low-lying Levels, and the timeframes involved with decommissioning, resilience to flood and climate change will be important considerations for both decommissioning and planning relating to radioactive waste. Designated Biodiversity Sites & Protecting and Enhancing Biodiversity, 20. But please see the Building a Strategy, Creating Sustainable Villages sections for potential approaches which may involve rural communities, Draft policy not yet available. In addition, in order for relevant stakeholders, including local communities, to be able to understand how a NSIP is performing over time against all KPIs and relevant measures secured in the DCO and accompanying documents, monitoring against KPIs should be published annually on a project monitoring web site and a paper copy deposited in a suitable local publicly accessible venue. There are several areas within the District where there are parking problems where demand exceeds the parking supply with resultant difficulties for travel, including waste collection and emergency services examples include the area around Kingswood High Street; Kings Drive and surrounding cul-de-sacs in Stoke Gifford; Hoopers Walk, Longwell Green; Edgeware Road, Staple Hill; St Barnabus Close, Warmley; Elmleigh Close, Mangotsfield; Lower Station Road, Staple Hill, and Whitsun Leaze within the relatively new development at Charlton Hayes, Patchway. Given the perceptions relating to radioactive waste, security requirements and limitations on future use that would be imposed by disposal of low level and very low level waste on site at Oldbury, that would endure for many generations into the future, but without any benefits of employment opportunities on the site, it is appropriate that Community Benefits are secured to offset these impacts. It is no surprise then that demand for housing is high and increasing. 35. In establishing a character or identity of a development, the surrounding context is important to consider and reference. Doing so would help meet the Councils carbon reduction and renewable energy generation targets set out in emerging Local Plan 2020 policy Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation. An increasing proportion of the councils funding comes from what we receive from council tax and business rates and so it is natural that our key priorities and commitments are based on what you, our residents and local businesses, have told us is important to you. Local plan policies provide direction and clarity on where development is expected to take place. The site is adjacent to the existing Magnox power station that is now being decommissioned (referred to in this plan as Oldbury A). This might be to increase private living or amenity space or public realm improvements, for example. In recognition of the burden and disturbance borne by the community in hosting some Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects, the Council will where appropriate require packages of community benefits to be provided by the developer to offset and compensate the community for the burden imposed by hosting the project. In addition significant volumes of conventional waste such as concrete and hardstanding may also arise from the demolition and clearance of buildings and hardstandings. For residential development, two policy options are presented to achieve net zero carbon. An appropriately governed Community Fund should be established to provide positive financial support for projects that improve the amenity, accessibility and social infrastructure of the Oldbury site environs. Youve told us we need to have a greater focus on the Climate Emergency. We will enable a low carbon, climate and ecologically resilient district through our policies, programmes, and decision-making. Local Plan 2018 - 2036. Heat pumps can also be used to provide cooling from the ground and water. Yet we also have attractive, safe communities with access to the city and open countryside. Access to homes, jobs and services should be promoted and enhanced through the design process. Plan:MK now. But we have also drawn on the opportunities that have emerged from the emergency response to the pandemic in looking forward to the new norm; identifying new and better ways to keep residents informed, and working with individuals and groups who have stepped up during this time to help communities play an active role in finding local answers to local issues. If so, there will be a charge of 290 plus VAT. Promotion of healthy lifestyles and well-being both for construction workers and local people Dedicated provision of facilities and services for construction workers to prevent impacts on local communities Surveys of local people during implementation can help understanding of well-being issues Provision of amenities for construction workers could become long term legacy for local communities Enhancements to the PRoW network to compensate for any unavoidable losses. In terms informing of the LPAs role, other emerging Local Plan 2020 policies sets out an overarching framework for the decommissioning and restoration of the Oldbury site against which pre-application advice and planning consents will be considered, and will also help inform the Councils response to any consultations on consents, licenses or permits from other organisations. Proposals for waste management or disposal should form an integral part of the strategic decommissioning masterplan for the Oldbury site, in accordance with emerging Local Plan 2020 policy. agriculture, industrial, business and/or residential use. Please refer to the map under Schedule A which outlines indicatively where these zones could be. The new Local Plan for Milton Keynes, Plan:MK was adopted by Milton Keynes Council at its meeting on the 20 March 2019, details of which can be found at Council 20 March 2019. Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMO), Residential Conversions and Sub-Divisions, 48. We must ensure we are reaching all members of our community and key to this will be strengthening our relationships with town and parish councils and the voluntary and community sectors. At this stage the map is high level and a further more detailed map will be required to support the policy as it is refined. For non- residential development, only one policy option is presented which requires 100% reduction in carbon emissions (net zero carbon) arising from regulated energy use. The tables link each policy to one of our emerging plan priorities, for example, exceptional spaces and places. If a future or legacy use for any temporary development or construction area is not feasible or appropriate, the Council shall require a scheme of works to be agreed whereby: i. Our most important resource is our people, and we must maintain and build on our inclusive and supportive culture and working environment and positively promote equalities throughout everything we do. The Local Plan for South Gloucestershire is currently formed by the Core Strategy, the Policies, Sites and Places (PSP) Plan and the Joint Waste Core Strategy. They will eventually be replaced by new policies included in the Local Plan 2020- but not until the Local Plan 2020 has been adopted. The existing nuclear power station at Oldbury ceased generation in 2012, and is now being decommissioned. For example, given the need to raise awareness of business opportunities to ensure that local companies can meet the requirements of the nuclear industry; as well as the need to ensure the availability of suitably qualified workforce both for construction and operation, early engagement in the pre-application phase will be required in respect of eduction, training, skills and supply chain strategies. We are developing a new Local Plan for South Gloucestershire, called the Local Plan 2020. Our approach will be backed by appropriate data-gathering and evidence as we seek to develop a long-term financial strategy aligned with these Council Plan priorities. At the same time, we must invest in and exploit opportunities to shift the balance towards prevention and help people to help themselves. Specific on-site requirements for Residential Development. part one covers policies for managing new development these policies have been drawn up in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework and National Planning Practice Guidance, part two covers the allocation and protecting of sites and places within South Gloucestershire this includes details of town centres and site allocations, there are also links to local green spaces and heritage sites at risk. ; avoiding over-glazing; and by reducing solar gain and external temperature through orientation, built form, massing, fixed, mobile and seasonal shading and green/brown/blue infrastructure; then, Maximise passive cooling through natural ventilation, diurnal cooling, placement of thermal mass and green/ blue infrastructure; and then. As with any development proposal, applicants are expected to engage with the local community and seek to generate support and address any concerns highlighted. In order to meet the objectives outlined in the plan the Council proposes to future proof development now in order to allow for an electric vehicle revolution. South Gloucestershire Local Plan - Proposed Submission: Policies, Sites and Places Plan (June 2016) 6. The aim of this design policy is to shape and direct development proposals to create resilient and exceptional places, spaces, and buildings in South Gloucestershire. Area Specific: Planning for Yate and Chipping Sodbury, 68. determination of discharge of requirements and/or planning conditions, and the Councils role as enforcement authority. It is therefore possible to achieve a net zero carbon standard where carbon emissions from the operation of a new development, in terms of heat and power, are effectively reduced to zero. Where trees are provided within areas of public realm, suitable below ground provision must be made to ensure their longevity; b) Net gains for biodiversity, tree cover and landscape diversity have been achieved. Other policies which may also be relevant, including proposed policies on radioactive waste, Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects (NSIPs) and associated or related development and proposed policy on Oldbury Nuclear New Build. It is also important that the SGC Accessibility Assessment does not overburden developers or officers and so work continues on developing the specific assessment. Emissions come from the transportation and materials used in the construction process, as well as the emissions from the operation and use of the development throughout its expected lifetime, including the emissions from the travel movements of users. Search the register of planning decisions We've matched the postcode to South Gloucestershire Council . However, inequality gaps have increased over recent years and without preventative action, the Covid-19 pandemic threatens to further hold back the prospects of the most disadvantaged. These are published on our website and well provide regular updates to track our progress against those commitments, ensuring that we are transparent and accountable. We also want to be clear which of our existing policies may need to evolve and eventually be replaced. A drop down menu will appear with address options. Pay it. As Beyond secondary education we will work closely with local colleges and universities to ensure further and higher education offers are accessible to young people and that local provision is sufficient to meet the needs of all new entrants and those seeking places to re-train and re-skill. Within the zones applications would need to be supported by an SGC Accessibility Assessment. Go. This includes pre-treatment, conditioning and decay storage processes prior to disposal to reduce the hazardous activity and volume of LLW and higher activity waste (HAW) in accordance with the principles of the waste hierarchy. Any advance or preparatory works are demonstrably necessary for the timely delivery of NNB at Oldbury, incorporate adequate and timely mitigation, and are accompanied by a strategy and mechanisms to secure appropriate restoration of the landscape should NNB at Oldbury not proceed. As part of this Phase 1 Issues and Approaches consultation document, we want to set out the range of policies we think will be required and which local plan priority they would assist in achieving. Analysing the data and liaising with our education providers, we are aware of a cohort of predominantly white children from disadvantaged backgrounds who are behind their peers in their educational attainment. For larger projects, cumulative impact assessment is a particularly important consideration, including across within and across topic areas and in combination with other plans and projects. Priority 2 Identifying and supporting those most in need and helping people to help themselves. This form of parking solution will therefore only be acceptable where significant and direct overlooking from habitable rooms of properties is provided and where other more secure solutions are not possible due to site constraints. Draft policy not yet available. Town and parish councils. The Council has identified ten themes and associated issues, constraints and opportunities relevant to: the development of sustainable and integrated proposals for a NNB development, and the minimisation of impacts on our local communities and environment, and the maximisation of positive outcomes, community benefits and legacy. Meeting the needs of our Gypsy/ Traveller & TravellingShowpeoplecommunities, 8. Adele Davison, Apprentice Engineer, South Gloucestershire Council. This is currently scheduled to take place in late 2023. For non-residential development, regulated energy use only is required to be reduced by 100%. Although the specific criteria has not been finalised it is expected that a percentage reduction will be based on the individual site circumstances and accessibility, for example looking at current on street parking issues as well as access to services and facilities and alternative modes of transport. Monitoring and review arrangements for both the construction and operational phases of the NNB. We would like your feedback on whether we have provided the correct range of policies that we will need in the future to guide development and create exceptional places and spaces within existing and new communities. Any proposal to dispose of such waste on site will require planning consent as well as consent from the Environment Agency. The relationships we have built through the Covid-19 pandemic are central to this and that new community conversation will grow further through the development of these very local-level relationships. The South Gloucestershire planners have been clear that government-set targets for housebuilding in the area CANNOT be met by development in urban areas and . Conservation Area Appraisals, Village Design Statements and The South Gloucestershire Landscape Character Assessment may, where available, in the vicinity of a development, also provide good sources of information that assist in discerning such distinctive local character. minimising impact and maximising benefits and legacy throughout the life of this intergenerational project. Strategic policies are those necessary to address the overarching priorities for the area, including policies that address cross-boundary issues. We will ensure that children and young people are supported in their early years, We will work to eliminate child poverty across South Gloucestershire, We will support all children and young people to achieve positive mental health and wellbeing, We will provide appropriate support to facilitate choices for children with a learning difficulty, We will provide the best support possible to those children and young people we are responsible for in care, as they leave care and beyond as they begin independent lives, We will ensure people have access to the best possible information, advice, and guidance to support themselves and their families, We will shift the balance of support towards prevention, We will support the most vulnerable adults to maintain and promote their independence, We will enable communities to work together to help improve their lives and address the problems that are important to them, We will ensure that people feel safeguarded and supported in our care, at home and in their communities, We will clean streets and maintain roads effectively, We will lead the response to the climate emergency and deliver on our commitments, We will promote clean, affordable, high quality design of new and existing communities, We will plan to join up housing and appropriate infrastructure such as schools and transport networks that make it easier for people to get around, prioritising sustainable and low carbon travel choices, We will enable people and business to recover and thrive within cohesive communities that value diversity, We will demonstrate how well we deliver value for money in the services we provide and commission from others, We will increase our commercial operations to generate income to support council services and use our assets for maximum benefit to our communities, We will work as one council providing staff with the skills, tools, and support to perform at their best, promote equality of opportunity for all and live our values, We will develop our digital infrastructure to support residents and staff in day-to-day life. Council offices. Contact planningpolicy@southglos.gov.uk to request this service. For these applications, consistency with the Development Consent Order and relevant certified documentation is the primary consideration, but national and local policy may also be relevant. We will further reinforce our inclusive culture where everyone feels able to participate and achieve their best. This Phase 1. Area Specific: Planning for the North Fringe of the Bristol Urban Area. It should be noted that the decommissioning of Oldbury will also potentially result in other hazardous wastes such as asbestos which will require disposal at a hazardous landfill site. Do you agree with our proposed policy approach? Resistive electric heating (unless part of certified Passivhaus) is excluded. developing a low carbon economy, encouraging people to live low carbon, sustainable and healthy lifestyles. Active Provision:An active OLEV compliant chargepoint, such that each dwelling has the opportunity to charge their vehicle at the same time with a total charging time not exceeding 8 hours. The provisions and requirements set out in this policy will ensure all development meets a high level of design quality, addresses the Climate Emergency and leads to more sustainable development, places and spaces. The policy must also acknowledge and reflect that we are in a period of transition, and help support the process of moving from established practices to the new approaches which will better support our sustainability objectives in the medium and longer term. A3** Restaurants and Cafes and A4**public houses, 1 space per 5sqm dining area or public drinking area, Shopping, leisure, recreation and other uses requiring public access and employment, In addition to and equal to 5% of the level of parking derived from Schedule B, 1) Car parking spaces should be clearly identified for blue badge holders only and should be located so as to allow easy access to the building they serve, Shops, services less than 3,000m2 gross floor area (GFA) (A1, A2), Garden centres, including those attached to other retail premises, Motor vehicle services (garage, workshops, car sales, car hire), Student accommodation (Sui Generis/C3/C1), 1 (provided garage design accommodation both car and cycle storage). About the council. New technology, different attitudes and direction from national policy means a new approach can be explored to help meet the numerous challenges that continue to face South Gloucestershire. With regard to Clause 2, a map of existing renewable energy installations will be produced (and updated as appropriate) and published on our Local Plan webpages (under the Evidence base section) This clause allows for older, existing infrastructure to be upgraded with modern/ more efficient technology. Phasing plans and triggers to secure the timely delivery of the various elements of the project, its supporting infrastructure and associated development will be necessary to ensure the control of impacts to acceptable levels, including, for example, and where relevant early or advance implementation of: Archaeological investigations and wildlife surveys to ensure that these inform site selection and site planning; and Strategies for procurement, employment, education, training and recruitment, that take account of long lead in times; and Transport infrastructure and worker accommodation proposals to avoid impacts on, for example, the road network, community facilities and the rented housing market; and Habitat creation, landscape mitigation and/or screen planting where significant impacts are predicted. 1. We offer an advice service for developers and landowners to meet with us to discuss your Local Plan representations. There are approximately 6,000 children living in poverty in South Gloucestershire, a statistic which goes to the heart of our priority to invest in education and skills, tackle inequality and create the best start in life for our children and young people. An explanation as to how any necessary Environmental Impact Assessment requirements will be met and Habitats Regulations compliance achieved, should accompany the strategic masterplan and individual proposals for the site. Where we hope to develop policies covering new topics, this is also indicated. In justifying new development in accordance with the NPPF requirements, this approach will not be acceptable. As a minimum, evidence should be submitted to demonstrate how development proposals:a) Are located away from areas vulnerable to increased flooding taking account of the latest available climate projections; andb) Incorporate measures to adapt to potential flood risk at building and site level, and minimise flood risk to the wider area; andc) Incorporate measures to mitigate high temperatures expected from future climate at building and site level; andd) Incorporate opportunities for supporting local food production; ande) Incorporate measures to optimise green infrastructure and enhance biodiversity; andf) Incorporate measures to reduce stress on water resources, and improve water efficiency; andg) Incorporate measures to improve public health and well-being. Therefore Clause 1c requires that after design measures to minimise the demand for cooling have been incorporated into the development then any residual cooling demand must be met sustainably through passive cooling measures, and then if necessary, through renewable mechanical ventilation measures and finally, renewable active cooling measures. This policy will be applied in consideration of both on and off-site issues, including impacts arising as a result of the transport of radioactive waste off site. Town and Parish Councils are integral to community engagement. Do you agree with our proposed policy approach? Should pre-application advice be required in advance of a PPA, the Councils approved pre-application charges for NSIPs as set out in the Councils Charging Schedule will apply. 7. Through our Community Engagement Forums and our Local Strategic Partnership, we work closely with the Police to identify the local priorities and actions for maintaining community safety. 22. Do you have any suggestions as to how we can safeguard areas where there is potential for renewable energy generation (demonstrated through the RERAS) from sterilisation by other types of development/ land uses? The proposed SGC Accessibility Assessment calculation is designed to assess development sites by weighting site specific local circumstances, (nearby facilities; walking, cycling and public transport provision) against existing parking issues and potential solutions, in order to encourage the use of sustainable travel including public transport through a reduction in proposed parking provision in areas of high connectivity. An example of this is our current work with the South Gloucestershire Tec Arc, a cluster of world-leading business and research institutions from the Bristol and Bath Science Park and National Composites Centre at Emersons Green, through the University of the West of England and Bristol Robotics Laboratory at Frenchay to the aerospace and engineering businesses of the Filton Enterprise Area. Impact assessment should also be an iterative process, conducted alongside the development of project proposals so that impact assessment informs both project planning and design. The visual implications of any proposals for change would need to be carefully considered. Do you agree with our proposed policy approach? A heat network (also known as district heating) refers to a network of insulated pipes, pumps, controls and thermal storage, used to transfer heat, as hot water, from a heat source to buildings and locations where it will be used. Have your say on proposals to improve sustainable travel between Thornbury and Bradley Stoke. New homes Between April 2006 and April 2019, 13,980 new homes were built, including 3,933 Affordable Homes. Our Local Plan evidence base includes documents related to the new Local Plan, including recent and forthcoming new evidence and background information supporting the Phase 2 consultation. Transport infrastructure may need to be delivered early in the NNB implementation phase, in order to avoid unacceptable impacts on existing infrastructure. 66. Planning applications and development South Gloucestershire is a fast growing area, we are committed to creating more and better places to live and work. It is a big challenge, but we recognise the threats to our area extensive parts of South Gloucestershire are subject to flood risk and the impacts of drought, high winds, and other extreme weather events due to climate change.At the same time, our natural environment and biodiversity are under growing pressure presenting significant risks for food production, our health and economy.We have made addressing these crises a central priority and overarching theme across our Climate Emergency Action Plan and, working with our partners, residents and communities, we will take action to protect, restore and improve our natural surroundings with a focus on woodland, grassland and wetland habitats. In planning this new housing, we must recognise the need to protect our natural habitats and biodiversity. 5) Use, homes and buildingsDevelopments should be adaptable over time, in order to be able to accommodate changing work/home, employment and shopping patterns, and people potentially choosing to stay in their homes for longer into older age. There should be transparency of monitoring of progress against the DCO, its Requirements and the KPIs through the publication of a publicly accessible Annual Monitoring Report.
