Socio-Economic Data Tendring Employment Study – Part 1 Final Report 111 INTRODUCTION The Study 1.1 Roger Tym and Partners were commissioned by Tendring District Council in May 2008 to undertake this Employment Study. The study – which will be undertaken in two parts, with this report representing Part One - is more than simply an Employment Land Review, although this is an important function that the study fulfils, following the guidance provided by the Government in its 2004 Employment Land Reviews Guidance Note . 1.2 As stated in the brief, the Council requires: “…the outcomes of the commission to specifically provide a robust evidence base which will underpin key elements of the Council’s emerging Local Development Framework (LDF); in particular the Core Strategy (also incorporating strategic development control policies), and the Housing Allocations and Employment Allocations Local Development Document.” 1.3 It goes on to say that the outcomes will also: “…inform the development of local and sub-regional employment strategies and investment decisions (through the very act of satisfying the LDF requirements) in line with the corporate policies of the Council which focus on the role of employment (growth) in realising its regeneration priorities and having as its number one priority a strong local economy.” 1.4 The East of England Plan: Revision to the Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS) sets an employment growth target of 20,000 additional jobs for Colchester and Tendring districts (being the part of the Haven Gateway sub-region in Essex) between 2001 and 2021. The favoured split between the two districts apportions 6,100 jobs to Tendring. Between 2001 and 2008, more than 5,900 net new jobs have been created in the District 1. In other words, nearly all of the RSS requirement has been delivered in the first seven years of the 20-year RSS period. 1.5 Notwithstanding the current recession – which is likely to put a brake on any significant employment growth over the next two to three years - Tendring is certain to deliver the RSS requirement and will probably exceed it substantially by 2021. The need therefore is to reassess the prospects for the district’s economy and consider its potential up to 2026. Within this context, the Employment Study considers the demand for employment land in the District up to 2026 (and 2031 where appropriate) and the implications of accommodating employment growth. The associated analysis of the supply of employment land will be undertaken in Part Two of the study. 1.6 Unlike many employment land studies, this study recognises the growing contribution that is made by employment in non-B-class employment uses. In particular this relates 1 From EEDA projections – this is discussed in more detail in Chapter 6 Roger Tym & Partners with Lawson Planning Partnership, LSH and Newman Commercial May 2009 1 Tendring Employment Study – Part 1 Final Report to retail, leisure and tourism sectors and it is the role of this study to consider the demand for and supply of space for these. 1.7 The study will also seek to consider the alternatives that Tendring might want to aspire to and put in place the structure of a strategy for achieving this. In looking for a strong and robust evidence base for planning a long time into the future (in this case, at least 15 years), a scenario building/visioning approach is valuable. This helps to show where the district’s economy could be in the future and what it needs to do to get there.

  • Site Ref: IP132 Former St Peter's Warehouse, 4 Bridge Street Site Area
    Site ref: IP132 Former St Peter’s Warehouse, 4 Bridge Street Site area: 0.18ha Allocation Policy SP2 Use(s) Indicative capacity Primary Residential 73 (high end of high density range expected) Secondary Offices (B1a) Subject to layout of site - assume commercial uses on 2 lower floors Leisure / Retail (small scale) * see Core Strategy policy DM22 for minimum and average densities. Adopted Plan 2017 As above Current use Temporary car park. Development constraints / issues The site contains the grade II listed No. 4 College Street and lies within an area of archaeological importance and the Central Conservation Area. It is located adjacent to the Wet Dock Conservation Area and close to, and within the setting of, the grade II* listed Church of St Peter and the scheduled monument of Wolsey’s Gate. The site lies in an area of archaeological importance (IPS 413), on the Anglo-Saxon and medieval waterfront of Ipswich. This site potentially represents that last surviving section of ‘early’ waterfront. There is high potential for archaeological remains of possible national significance, such as important waterlogged remains and the potential remains of bridges dating from at least the 10th century. Detailed early pre-application discussion with Suffolk County Council Archaeological Service and Historic England would be required to agree the scope of required assessment, the principle of development and to inform design (e.g. to allow for preservation in-situ of deposits or appropriate programmes of work). Where development is accepted in principle, archaeological remains will be complex and important and mitigation could involve significant costs and timescales.

Public Participation Two residents spoke to object to planning application17/00920/FUL at Land adjacent to Cliphedge Farm, Harwich Road, Little Bentley. Concerns were raised about the potential environmental damage, rural character being destroyed and the size being out of proportion, with no apparent logical reason for the site to be deVeloped. It was reported that Little Bentley Parish Council had opposed the scheme and the residents requested that Great Bromley Parish Council and residents of Great Bromley do the same. 5. Superfast Broadband Connie Kerbst, Lead Officer for Superfast Broadband programme at ECC attended the meeting to discuss concerns raised by residents over the provision of broadband locally. Cllr Strowbridge explained that most of the village has no option of BT broadband. County Broadband had advised they could cover the area of Great Bromley but when requested to install they find they can’t. Ms Kerbst adVised that ECC needed to disprove County’s claim until they can start influencing BT. To do that ECC needed residents to provide evidence, even if it’s just Verbal evidence stating date and time of call.
