New developments should where possible be in areas of low flood risk with priority to Brownfield sites over Green Belt land.

New developments should be in areas with the lowest flood risk. Brownfield land should be used for development as opposed to green belt or farmland.

No. Draft Policy J largely reiterates the guidance contained in the NPPF and PPG on Flood Risk and the Sequential Test. It is unnecessary to repeat national policy in the SWLP. The SWLP should simply direct the reader to the NPPF and PPG.

A definition is required for what constitutes a ‘major’ development within the policy. There needs to be a minimum number of dwellings specified for a Flood Risk Assessment to be required – small developments can cause flood issues to their neighbours and downstream if poorly designed. All development needs to demonstrate that they will not impact on existing development between the development site and the main rivers regardless of whether the proposed and existing development is within a flood risk area.

I do not belive this policy takes into account the effects of climate change adequately as well as the effects of a reduction in the land surface area drainage when all the additional housing and road structure is taken into account. This is particularly relevant to the surface water drainage of the Welcombe Hills around the Clopton quarter

I fully agree that flood risk is avoided by selecting land at least of flooding and that development should not place others at increase risk of flooding. In this context site BW would be unsuitable for development compared with all other settlement sites being considered.

Ymatebydd: Alcester Town Council
Alcester Town Council, Arrow with Weethley Parish Council, Kinwarton Parish Council, Wixford Parish Council and Great Alne Parish Council support the approach laid out in draft policy J. Flooding is of real concern to our communities and development should not be permitted in areas which are likely to flood. No development should increase the risk of flooding elsewhere in the watercourse catchment area.
When development is proposed in an area prone to flooding, and relies on public flood defences to avoid flooding, the developer must prove that such flood defences continue to provide sufficient protection.

Any scale of development should reduce flood risk.
The downstream discharge rate from any surface water drainage or SUDS system must be limited to one third of the current green field runoff or one tenth of the current brownfield runoff.
There should be no development in any flood risk area.
There should be no housing development any closer to a flood risk area than the houses already built.

Flooding is already an increasing problem in Stratford. new developments should be prioritised in greybelt and brownfield land, where it's far less likely to increase flooding risk, as it would with greenfield and farmland

Godwin Developments agree that new development should be prioritised to areas of lowest flood risk. As set out in the Vision Document accompanying these representations, it is noted that land at Aylesbury Road is located entirely in Flood Zone 1 and therefore considered to have low probability of flooding from fluvial sources. Furthermore, it is noted that the risk of surface water flooding is “very low”.

New development should be prioritised in areas of lowest flood risk. Using green field areas for urban developments increases flood risk and impacts the river water pollution due to runoff from highly fertilised land. Greg belt/brown field land should be prioritised over greenfield and farmland for development.

It should be looked at to see where there is flood risk. By building on Clopton quarter it would mean green belt land would be built on, and affecting flooding on Birmingham, what has got worse.

This is not sufficiently stringent, as SG24 appears to propose to construct infrastructure over land which is essential for flood management. Specifically, the SG24 area between Stratford Road, Aylesbury Road, Box Trees Road, and Grange Road, where the proposed development site would be over streams and a surface water sump (large, natural, ponds) which service much of the northern and eastern parts of Hockley Heath. The village and the A34 already experiences surface water flooding in even moderate rainfall; interfering with the area's hydrology in the proposed way is highly likely to result in many more properties being flooded.
