Proposed Submission Local Plan - April 2016 Foreword CENTRAL LINCOLNSHIRE LOCAL PLAN Proposed Submission April 2016 Central Lincolnshire | Proposed Submission Local Plan - April 2016 Foreword Ensuring a flourishing future for Central Lincolnshire Central Lincolnshire is characterised by its diverse and enticing landscape. The magnificent city of Lincoln is embedded within our beautiful landscape and is surrounded by a network of picturesque towns and villages: these places, along with the social and economic opportunities in the area, make Central Lincolnshire a fantastic place to live, work and visit. But there is so much potential to make Central Lincolnshire an even better place. An even better place to live, with quality homes people can afford, easier access to shops, services and facilities, and new thriving communities, which are welcoming and safe. An even better place to work, where new facilities and infrastructure mean that businesses choose to expand or relocate here, bringing jobs and stimulating investment. An even better place to visit, a place where people choose to come to enjoy our nature, our history, our shops, our eateries and attractions, while at the same time significantly contributing to our rural and urban economies. A new Local Plan for Central Lincolnshire can do this. Building on your very helpful comments we received at both the preliminary and further draft stages, inside this Proposed Submission Local Plan for Central Lincolnshire are a set of revised planning policy proposals for the growth and regeneration of Central Lincolnshire over the next 20 years and beyond, together with a firmed up set of proposed sites for development and other areas designated for protection. The policies within the Local Plan will make sure that our settlements grow in the right way, ensure we have homes and employment where we need them, and ensure our new communities are sustainable, accessible and inclusive. The plan will enable us, working with our partners and local communities, to realise Central Lincolnshire’s true potential. This is the third and final opportunity for you to comment on the emerging plan. Any comments you make will be carefully considered, including by an independent Inspector, before the Local Plan is adopted. Councillor Jeff Summers, Leader Councillor Mrs of West Lindsey Marion Brighton Councillor Ric Councillor Colin District Council OBE, Leader of Metcalfe, Leader John Davie, North Kesteven of City of Lincoln Lincolnshire District Council Council County Council Executive Councillor for Economic Development, Planning and Tourism i Central Lincolnshire | Proposed Submission Local Plan - April 2016 Preface Note: this page will be slightly updated on submission of the Local Plan for examination (due June 2016) Status of this April 2016 Document for Decision Makers This Proposed Submission Local Plan was approved by the Central Lincolnshire Joint Strategic Planning Committee on 14 March 2016 for the purposes of public consultation. It is therefore classified as an ‘emerging’ plan. The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) clarifies the position on the status of emerging plans. It states: Para 216: From the day of publication, decision makers may also give weight to relevant policies in emerging plans according to: the stage of preparation of the emerging plan (the more advanced the preparation, the greater the weight that can be given) the extent to which there are unresolved objections to relevant policies (the less significant the unresolved objections, the greater the weight that may be given); and the degree of consistency of the relevant policies in the emerging plan to the policies in this Framework (the closer the policies in the emerging plan to policies in this framework the greater the weight that may be given). This Proposed Submission Local Plan (April 2016) is the third and final consultation version of a new Local Plan to replace the current Local Plans of Lincoln, North Kesteven and West Lindsey. In accordance with NPPF paragraph 216, the policies contained within this emerging plan will be used (alongside the current development plans and other material considerations) in determining planning applications, especially where it contains ‘new’ policy not currently found in either the current Local Plans or the NPPF. In helping determine proposals, the amount of ‘weight’ to be given to the content of this emerging plan in comparison with the amount of weight given to other plans, strategies and material considerations, will be a matter for the decision maker to decide and will vary depending on the specific elements of the proposal. At this final draft ('Proposed Submission' or sometimes referred to as 'Publication Draft') stage of plan preparation, the weight to be given to this emerging Local Plan is more substantial than for previous stages, though the 'starting point' for decision makers remains with the existing adopted Local Plans for the area. ii Central Lincolnshire | Proposed Submission Local Plan - April 2016 Contents Main Contents 1 The Central Lincolnshire Local Plan 1 1.1 Introduction 1 2 Our Vision: A prosperous, stronger and sustainable Central Lincolnshire 4 2.1 Central Lincolnshire – a shared approach 4 2.2 Central Lincolnshire in Context 4 2.3 Key Challenges 5 2.4 Our Vision 6 2.5 Our Objectives 7 3 A Growing Central Lincolnshire 9 3.1 A Presumption in Favour of Sustainable Development 9 3.2 Settlement Hierarchy, Spatial Strategy and Settlement Growth Targets 9 3.3 Level and Distribution of Growth 12 3.4 Growth in Villages 16 3.5 Economic Growth, Prosperity and Jobs 20 3.6 Retail and Town Centres 26 3.7 The Visitor Economy 29 3.8 Lincolnshire Showground 30 4 A Caring Central Lincolnshire: meeting needs and the provision of infrastructure 31 4.1 Introduction 31 4.2 Health and Wellbeing 31 4.3 Housing Standards Review 32 4.4 Meeting Accommodation Needs 33 4.5 Affordable Housing 34 4.6 Providing Infrastructure 36 4.7 Accessibility and Transport 38 4.8 Managing Water Resources and Flooding 42 4.9 Community Facilities 45 4.10 Development on Land Affected by Contamination 47 5 A Quality Central Lincolnshire 48 5.1 Introduction 48 5.2 Our Landscape 48 Central Lincolnshire | Proposed Submission Local Plan - April 2016 Contents 5.3 Climate Change and Low Carbon Living 49 5.4 Renewable Energy Proposals 50 5.5 Green Infrastructure Network 51 5.6 Biodiversity and Geodiversity 53 5.7 Green Wedges 55 5.8 Local Green Space and other Important Open Space 56 5.9 Creation of New Open Spaces, Sports and Recreation Facilities 57 5.10 The Historic Environment 58 5.11 Design Principles and Amenity 62 5.12 Main Town Centre Uses - Frontages and Advertisements 64 6 Delivering Locally 66 6.1 Introduction 66 6.2 Sustainable Urban Extensions (SUEs) 66 7 Lincoln 68 7.1 Lincoln Introduction 68 7.2 A Growing Lincoln 68 7.3 Protecting Lincoln's Setting and Character 70 7.4 Lincoln Sustainable Urban Extensions 71 7.5 Lincoln's Economy 77 7.6 Lincoln's Universities and Colleges 78 7.7 Lincoln City Centre 78 7.8 Lincoln's District and Local Shopping Centres 81 7.9 Lincoln's Regeneration and Opportunity Areas 82 7.10 Access and Movement within the Lincoln Area 84 7.11 Sub-division and multi-occupation of dwellings within Lincoln 86 8 Gainsborough 88 8.1 Gainsborough Introduction 88 8.2 A Growing Gainsborough 88 8.3 Protecting Gainsborough's Setting and Character 89 8.4 Gainsborough Sustainable Urban Extensions 90 8.5 Gainsborough Riverside 94 8.6 Regenerating Gainsborough 94 8.7 Gainsborough Town Centre Boundary and Primary Shopping Area 95 Central Lincolnshire | Proposed Submission Local Plan - April 2016 Contents 9 Sleaford 97 9.1 Sleaford Introduction 97 9.2 Protecting Sleaford's Setting and Character 97 9.3 Sleaford Sustainable Urban Extensions 99 9.4 Sleaford's Regeneration and Opportunity Areas 102 9.5 Sleaford Town Centre 104 9.6 Access and Movement within Sleaford 105 10 Development Sites 107 10.1 Introduction 107 10.2 Residential Allocations 108 10.3 Development in Hamlets and the Countryside 123 11 Previous ‘Saved Policies’, Implementation and Monitoring 129 11.1 Saved Policies and other planning policy documents 129 Appendices A Neighbourhood Planning 131 B Growth Levels in Villages (Levels 5-6 of the settlement hierarchy) 133 C Open Space Provision Standards 144 D Glossary 146 List of Policies Policy LP1: A Presumption in Favour of Sustainable Development 9 Policy LP2: The Spatial Strategy and Settlement Hierarchy 10 Policy LP3: Level and Distribution of Growth 14 Policy LP4: Growth in Villages 17 Policy LP5: Delivering Prosperity and Jobs 22 Policy LP6: Retail and Town Centres in Central Lincolnshire 27 Policy LP7: A Sustainable Visitor Economy 29 Policy LP8: Lincolnshire Showground 30 Policy LP9: Health and Wellbeing 31 Policy LP10: Meeting Accommodation Needs 33 Policy LP11: Affordable Housing 35 Policy LP12: Infrastructure to Support Growth 37 Policy LP13: Accessibility and Transport 40 Policy LP14: Managing Water Resources and Flood Risk 44 Policy LP15: Community Facilities 45 Policy LP16: Development on Land Affected by Contamination 47 Central Lincolnshire | Proposed Submission Local Plan - April 2016 Contents Policy LP17: Landscape, Townscape and Views 48 Policy LP18: Climate Change and Low Carbon Living 49 Policy LP19: Renewable Energy Proposals 51 Policy LP20: Green Infrastructure Network 53 Policy LP21: Biodiversity and Geodiversity 54 Policy LP22: Green Wedges 56 Policy LP23: Local Green Space and other Important Open Space 57 Policy LP24: Creation of New Open Space, Sports and Recreation Facilities 58 Policy LP25:

  • An Inland Cruise
    [Appeared to HUNT'S YACHTIKQ MAOAZIOT for February ana March, 1887.] AN INLAND CRUISE, By W. A. CLARK, E»Q. CHAPTER I. HCMBIB, AND ANCIIOLME, ON the evening of the 7th July, 1886, Sheila and I departed from Dundee on board the s.s. London, and late on the following afternoon arrived at Hull. Sheila is a double-scull boat of the Dundee Rowing Club dimensions, viz., length 17ft. 6in., beam 3ft. 9in., and depth lft. 4in., built of yellow pine and weighing about HOlbs. She is fitted with swivel rowlocks and fixed seats. A spare pair of 9ft. 6in. sculls were carried in case of accident, and a waterproof boat tent with some not very elaborate camp furniture completed the equipment of the boat. July 9th.—At 7h. 80m. on the morning after my arrival in Hull, I set out for the steamer to get Sheila ashore. On reaching the wharf judge my horror and disgust on discovering that the boat was minus both stretchers, which had been removed by the brilliant boat building genius to whom the shipment of the craft had been entrusted at Dundee. After offering up prayers on his behalf, I returned to my hotel and had a lengthened council of war with the landlady and boots. Boots proved a man of resource, and fortunately knew of a boat builder close at hand, to whose shed we quickly carried the vessel, and in the space of half an hour a stretcher was fitted in a ship-shape fashion. I regret I do not recollect the name of this carpenter, as he was a good workman and withal, a civil and obliging fellow—a feature so unusual in a boat builder, that one would like to hand his name down to posterity.

    The Distribution of Plecoptera and Ephemeroptera in a Lowland Region of Britain (Lincolnshire) by T. E. LANGFORD * & E. S. BRAY** Central Electricity Research Laboratories INTRODUCTION Most of the information concerning distribution and ecology of Plecoptera and Ephemeroptera in Britain, has come from studies of streams in hill and mountain regions, particularly Wales, (HYNES 1961), the English Lake District (See MACAN 1963 p. 20 for refs., GLEDHILL 1960), the Pennines (BROWN, CRAGG & CRISP 1964), Scotland (MORGAN & EGGLISHAW 1965a), and Dartmoor (ELLIOTT 1967). Very little attention has been paid to the distribution of these insects in lowland regions, though isolated records have been published (HARRIS 1952, HYNES 1958, MACAN 1961). From August 1961 to February 1968, regular biological surveys of streams, rivers and pools in Lincolnshire were carried out, mainly to investigate the natural distribution of invertebrate animals and to assess the effects of polluting discharges on the composition of the invertebrate communities. In these surveys 7 species of Plecoptera (Langford 1964), and 15 species of Ephemeroptera (LANGFORD 1965) were recorded. Of these 22 species, 19 were new records for the region . This paper describes the distribution and abundance of the species in relation to the topography and chemistry of Lincolnshire streams, rivers and pools, and the Plecoptera and Ephemeroptera faunas of the *Central Electricity Research Laboratories, Leatherhead, (Surrey) . **Cornwall River Authority Launceston, Cornwall . Received October 22th, 1968. 243 region are compared to those of the mountain regions . The topo- graphy and geology of Lincolnshire is described briefly . This paper is the first of a series dealing with the aquatic macro-invertebrate fauna of the region .

  • Night of the Intruders Unternehmen Gisela
    NIGHT OF THE INTRUDERS UNTERNEHMEN GISELA In early March 1945, the German Luftwaffe, in an isolated display of resistance, developed a tactic which, had it been deployed earlier, could have neutralised the WWII operations of Royal Air Force Bomber Command. In the early hours of 4th March 1945, in Unternehmen (Operation) Gisela, some 200 Junkers JU88 nightfighters of the Luftwaffe Nachtjagdeschwader Gruppen (Night Fighter destroyer Group) had been deployed to intercept the allied bombers returning to base at their most vulnerable point, just before landing. The marauding aircraft crossed the North Sea at points stretching between the Thames Estuary and up the east coast to the North Yorkshire moors. The fact that these intruders were able to cross the North Sea coast without being picked up by English radar operators would seem to have been a result of a degree of complacency that had set in amongst Bomber Command, as the Luftwaffe appeared to be subdued. F/Lt 'Uncle Will' Hay, piloted PB504, one of 12 Lancasters dispatched by 49 Squadron to attack the Dortmund-Ems Canal; during the return leg he noted something rather unusual: "Coming back from the Dortmund-Ems, I saw beacons on the Dutch coast, the type which the night fighters orbit before being vectored onto the stream. The beacons were usually single, but this was a double one and to me meant only one thing - the fighters were waiting to move in. I dropped to sea level (ignoring the bomb aimer's complaints about the sudden rush of pressure on his ears) and we came back just over the tops of the waves." 'Uncle Will's' instincts were correct; for crossing the North Sea with the returning bombers of 4 and 5 Groups, were Ju88Gs of the German Luftwaffe - but here 'Uncle' (whose crew was one operation shy of their tour) luck must have been strong, for the enemy was also flying to England at wave top level.

  • A New Beginning for Swineshead St Mary's Primary School
    www.emmausfederation.co.uk Admission arrangements for Community and Voluntary Controlled Primary Schools for 2018 intake The County Council has delegated to the governing bodies of individual community and controlled schools the decisions about which children to admit. Every community and controlled school must apply the County Council’s oversubscription criteria shown below if they receive more applications than available places. Arrangements for applications for places in the normal year of intake (Reception in Primary and Infant schools and year 3 in Junior schools) will be made in accordance with Lincolnshire County Council's co‐ordinated admission arrangements. Lincolnshire residents can apply online www.lincolnshire.gov.uk/schooladmissions, by telephone or by requesting a paper application. Residents in other areas must apply through their home local authority. Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools will use the Lincolnshire County Council's timetable published online for these applications and the relevant Local Authority will make the offers of places on their behalf as required by the School Admissions Code. In accordance with legislation the allocation of places for children with the following will take place first; Statement of Special Educational Needs (Education Act 1996) or Education, Health and Care Plan (Children and Families Act 2014) where the school is named. We will then allocate remaining places in accordance with this policy. For entry into reception and year 3 in September we will allocate places to parents who make an application before we consider any parent who has not made one. Attending a nursery or a pre-school does not give any priority within the oversubscription criteria for a place in a school.
