It is accepted that strategic level growth must be encouraged and accommodated but the current consultation appears pre-occupied with this. It is telling that there is no policy related to non-strategic employment growth. It is also not appropriate for the plan to direct non-strategic growth to strategic allocations since this is not likely to be attractive to many SMEs.

It is noted that the Policy Direction indicates the following “Allocations specifically for affordable office space will be explored in the Reg.19 version of the SWLP, and we will explore commissioning further evidence as to how affordable office space could be secured prior to the Reg.19 consultation of the SWLP.” This is happening in the context of further growth at Claybank Farm being ruled out.

In these circumstances to move straight to the Regulation 19 version of the plan to provide further clarity is inappropriate as this would be without proper engagement and consultation.

Agree, subject to no adverse impact on the overall viability of development.

It is unclear where Claybank Farm would stand in relation to this Policy Direction.

Claybank Farm (Site ref: 517) would be capable of providing precisely this type of accommodation. In these circumstances the removal of Site 517 from consideration in the plan is inexplicable.

In the Policy Direction, the suggestion that larger sites should provide some smaller accommodation seems naïve, focussed again towards bigger sites and developers. It also appears to be equating the provision of business accommodation with affordable housing policies. Employment and housing are different and need to be treated in accordance with economic reality.

It is noted that this policy confirms that community facilities and services contribute to the sustainability of communities, and that planning policies and decisions should enable the retention and development of accessible local services and community facilities, however, the wording of the policy does not encourage the development of accessible local services and community facilities and therefore its remit should be broadened appropriately. This is particularly important in situations where community facilities or lack thereof may be restricting other development opportunities.

It is agreed that development should aim to be accessible by sustainable transport, but in a District containing a large number of rural settlements, this is not always possible or realistic. Flexibility should be introduced into the policy direction to require sustainable transport accessibility wherever possible.

It is no longer appropriate to rely solely upon physical infrastructure, such as access to transport. It is instead appropriate to also consider the social, economic and environmental benefits for sustainable development of the burgeoning trends in rolling out carbon efficient technologies into rural areas and trends in home working and behavioural patterns.
