1.0 Introduction

1.1 Instruction

1.1.1 This statement has been prepared by WYG on behalf of the Borough of Broxbourne Council. It represents an addendum to the February 2017 Brookfield Retail and Leisure Impact Study (2017 RLIS). The addendum has been prepared in advance of the Local Plan hearing sessions which are due to take place in September this year.

1.1.2 WYG has been instructed to undertake an addendum to the February 2017 RLIS to take into account the following:

• the Borough of Broxbourne Retail Study 2 nd Retail Addendum, dated May 2018;

• health check update reviews of and town centres and Old Pond District Centre;

• any further potential investment sites identified by neighbouring LPA’s; and

• vitality and viability health check assessments and retail turnover data published since the 2017 RLIS by neighbouring local planning authorities (to support their emerging local plans).

1.1.3 WYG’s instructions are also to respond to relevant Local Plan ‘Regulation 19 Representations’ from neighbouring Council’s received by the Council between 9 th November and 21 st December 2017. Our responses are attached separately at Appendix A .

1.2 Borough of Broxbourne Retail & Leisure Study 2nd Addendum

1.2.1 The Borough of Broxbourne Retail Study 2 nd Retail Addendum provides an update on the retail capacity/quantitative need for additional convenience and comparison goods floorspace in the Borough. The addendum takes into account, inter alia , the following:

• updated population and population projection data (June 2016 ONS mid-year estimates);

• new/updated retail expenditure per capita data (based on Experian’s UK 2017 data release);

• updated retail expenditure growth projections and data (Experian Retail Planner Briefing Note 15 (December 2017);

• updated grocery sales density data (GlobalData.com);

• updated grocery floorspace data from ORC Store Point; and

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 1 www.wyg.com

• the current position on retail planning commitments/permissions.

1.2.2 The addendum also updates the assessment period to reflect the current plan period to 2033 and the base year for the assessment reflects the current year - 2018.

1.2.3 For ease of reference the headline convenience and comparison goods turnover and floorspace capacity findings for the plan period are set out in Figures 1.1 below.

1.2.4 In our July 2015 Broxbourne Retail and Leisure Study we identified that there was scope to secure an increase in the Borough’s retention of comparison goods expenditure originating in the Borough as some residents are travelling further afield to source certain types of good. The Broxbourne Retail & Leisure Study 2 nd Retail Addendum (May 2018) identifies that the Borough’s retention rate of comparison goods expenditure is just 55%. Accordingly, a significant proportion of residents living in the Borough are travelling to other centres/facilities outside the Borough for their comparison goods shopping.

1.2.5 The development of a significant quantum of comparison goods floorspace to meet identified quantitative (and qualitive) need would have the potential to increase market share and ‘clawback’ expenditure ‘leaking’ to other centres. The uplift in market share that is secured will be dependent on the scale, format and performance of the scheme that is delivered. The market share uplift scenario in the Retail Study Addendum tests an increase in Broxbourne’s study area derived market share from 25.2% to 28.9% (approximately 15% increase). Given that the level of capacity identified under this scenario (£221.5m in plan period (2033)) is estimated to be higher than the estimated turnover of the planned

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 2 www.wyg.com

comparison goods floorspace of Brookfield (estimated to be £187.5m at 2033 (under Scenario B – Medium sales density)) the actual market share uplift that is required to accommodate Brookfield is actually likely to be lower (between 5-10%). The uplift will depend on the amount of comparison goods floorspace that is developed at Brookfield. Proposed Policy BR1 identifies an “up to” comparison goods figures for Brookfield (28,000sq m net (30,000sq m net including the Brookfield Retail Park commitment)) and the RLIS tests this ‘worst case’ scenario.

1.2.6 As noted in the 2017 RLIS, National Planning Policy Guidance (NPPG) (paragraph 14) provides guidance on how the impact test should be used in plan making. It states:

“If the Local Plan is based on meeting the assessed need for town centre uses in accordance with the sequential approach, issues of adverse impact should not arise. The impact test may be useful in determining whether proposals in certain locations would impact on existing, committed and planned public and private investment, or on the role of centres.”

1.2.7 Turning firstly to the sequential approach, the 2015 Retail and Leisure Study sought to assess where the identified forecast additional retail and leisure capacity and growth could be located. The assessment identified:

• with the exception of the site at the northern High Street (Waltham Cross), there were no new opportunities for retail or leisure developments within or on the edge of the town centres; and

• there was very little physical capacity to accommodate all of the assessed convenience and comparison floorspace capacity over the period within the designated centres.

1.2.8 The Retail & Leisure Study concluded that, as a long-established retail destination in its own right, Brookfield (and the Greater Brookfield area) was considered the sequentially preferable location to accommodate any residual large-scale retail and leisure development within the Borough.

1.2.9 We understand from discussions with planning officers in the Council that there has been no material change in circumstances in terms of potential sequentially preferable sites in the Borough.

1.2.10 On the basis that the planned retail floorspace at Brookfield (up to 28,000sq m net comparison goods / 3,000sq m net convenience goods) is meeting the assessed identified retail need the NPPF and NPPG do not technically require an impact assessment to be undertaken. The NPPG notes that the impact test “may be useful” but it does not specifically set out a requirement to undertake one.

1.2.11 Notwithstanding the above, for robustness a detailed impact assessment has been undertaken and this addendum provides an update to the original 2017 RLIS.

1.2.12 In accordance with our instruction, taking into account the updated assessments/information at paragraph 1.1.2 and 1.1.3, the addendum updates the following sections of the 2017 RLIS:

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 3 www.wyg.com

• Section 4: Quantitative Retail Impact Assessment;

• Section 5: Impact on Existing, Committed & Planned In-Centre Investment; and

• Section 7: Overall Impact on Centre Vitality & Viability.

1.3 Structure of Report

1.3.1 Our report is structured as follows:

Section 2: provides an updated quantitative retail impact assessment;

Section 3: sets out an updated impacted assessment on existing, committed and planned in-centre investments;

Section 4: provides an updated assessment on the overall impact on the vitality and viability of centres the quantitative retail impact assessment;

Section 5: summarises our findings.

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 4 www.wyg.com

2.0 Updated Quantitative Retail Impact Assessment

2.1 Introduction

2.1.1 This section of the statement provides an updated quantitative retail impact assessment taking into account the population and retail data updates adopted in the Broxbourne Retail Study 2 nd Retail Addendum. As noted in Section 1, the update takes into account the following:

• updated population and population projection data (June 2016 ONS mid-year estimates);

• new/updated retail expenditure per capita data (based on Experian’s UK 2017 data release);

• updated retail expenditure growth projections and data (Experian Retail Planner Briefing Note 15 (December 2017);

• updated grocery sales density data (GlobalData.com);

• updated grocery floorspace data from ORC Store Point; and

• the current position on retail planning commitments/permissions.

2.1.2 Where relevant the retail turnover for centres outside the Borough have also been updated having regard to new retail studies published by neighbouring /districts since the 2017 RLIS. These retail turnovers have been converted to the same price base (2012 Prices) using Experian Retail Planner Briefing Note 15 – December 2017 (Appendix 4b).

2.1.3 The updated impact assessment also updates the base year from 2016 to 2018. In terms of the design year for testing impact, this has been updated from 2024 to 2026. Whilst the NPPF (paragraph 26) identifies that for major schemes (which Brookfield Riverside would be) impact should also be assessed up to ten years from the time the application is made, in order to be robust the impact assessment continues to adopt a design year which is 8 years from the base year.

2.1.4 The statistical retail impact tables referred to in this section are contained at Appendix B and Appendix C.

2.1.5 As per the 2017 RLIS, three trading assessment scenarios are provided testing the proposed 28,000sq m net comparison goods floorspace trading at different sales density levels. An allowance has been made for increased turnover deficiency between 2024 and 2026 as set out in Experian Retail Planner 15 (December 2017):

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 5 www.wyg.com

• Scenario A – Low comparison goods sales density – £4,705/sq m @ 2026 (previously £4,500/sq m @ 2024)

• Scenario B – Medium comparison goods sales density – £5,750/sq m @ 2026 (previous £5,500/sq m @ 2024)

• Scenario C – High comparison goods sales density - £6,273/sq m @ 2026 (previous £6,000/sq m @ 2024)

2.1.6 As noted at paragraph 4.1.3 of the original RLIS, having regard to: the level of planned retail floorspace; existing retail provision in Brookfield; the location of existing retail provision (notably in Harlow and Enfield); and projected turnover efficiency information provided by retail data provider Experian we consider that Scenario B represents the most likely comparison goods sales density turnover figure for the planned comparison goods floorspace at the design year.

2.2 Updated Quantitative Retail Impact Assessment

Trade Diversion to Planned Retail Floorspace at Brookfield

2.2.1 Figure 2.1 sets out the assessed potential trading effects of the planned retail (both convenience and comparison goods) floorspace at Brookfield under the three scenarios described above. As with the original 2017 RLIS two measures of retail impact are provided:

• the change in the turnover of centres in the period 2018-2026 following the development of the planned floorspace; and

• the impact of the planned floorspace on the calculated 2026 turnover of centres.

2.2.2 Figure 2.1 shows that there will continue to be an increase in the retail of turnovers of all centres within an 8-year period, even assuming the worst-case scenario (Scenario C – High Density). It is noted that whilst Waltham Cross and Hoddesdon town centres retail growth in the 8-year period is assessed to be higher (primarily as a result of lower retail turnovers being identified in their respective retail studies), both Harlow and Enfield town centres retail growth is estimated to be less than previously assessed.

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 7 www.wyg.com

2.2.3 Accordingly, the updated assessment identifies that the retail economies of the examined centres are all still assessed to continue to experience growth.

2.2.4 Turning to the impact on the 2026 retail turnover of centres/facilities. Assuming the most likely comparison goods sales density scenario (Scenario B) the updated assessment assesses:

• In terms of centres within the Borough, Waltham Cross and Hoddesdon town centres are assessed to experience impacts of 3.8% and 2.8% respectively (4.1% and 2.9% respectively under High Sales Density Scenario C). Cheshunt Old Pond District Centre is assessed to experience an impact of 2.0% (2.1% under Scenario C).

All these impacts are lower than previously assessed as part of the 2017 RLIS. The lower impacts are primarily due to the estimated increased retail turnovers of the centres resulting from the updated Experian ONS population and retail expenditure data (June 2016 ONS mid-year population estimates and UK 2017 retail data release).

• Turning to the centres outside the Borough, all centres are estimated to experience an impact of less than 6.0% (6.5% under High Sales Density Scenario C). Harlow Town Centre is estimated to experience the largest impact of 6.0% (6.8% under Scenario C), Enfield Town Centre an impact of 5.2% (5.6% under Scenario C), Welwyn Garden City Town Centre an impact of 3.1% (3.4% under Scenario C), and Hertford 3.6% (3.9% under Scenario C). Hatfield, Stevenage and Ware town centres are all assessed to experience an impact of below 2.4% (2.5% under Scenario C).

The level of impacts estimated are broadly similar to those previous assessed in the 2017 RLIS. Primarily as a result of a lower retail turnover identified in the 2017 Harlow Retail Study the impact of Brookfield is estimated to be slightly higher (+0.8%). Enfield, Welwyn Garden City and Hatfield town centres are all anticipated to experience slightly lower estimated impacts when compared to the 2017 original RLIS (-0.9% Welwyn Garden City, -0.4% Enfield, -0.2% Hatfield). Again, these differences are largely attributable to retail turnover data for these centres in updated retail and leisure studies).

2.2.5 The impact levels identified in the updated impact assessment are still considered to be low with retail turnover growth having mitigating effects on the examined impact arising from trade diversion to the planned Brookfield development.

2.2.6 We assess whether the above updated quantitative impact assessment findings result in a material change in our overall vitality and viability impact findings in Section 4 of this addendum.

Cumulative Impact with Brookfield Retail Park Extension Commitment

2.2.7 As with the 2017 RLIS, this quantitative impact assessment also takes into account the proposed 2,446sq m gross comparison goods extension retail commitment at Brookfield Retail Park (application ref:

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 8 www.wyg.com

07/16/0166/F). Updated Tables 13a, 13b and 13c set out separate cumulative impact figures with the retail commitment. The same assumptions have been applied to the retail commitment in terms of turnover and trade draw as that adopted in the original 2017 RLIS.

2.2.8 The assessed cumulative levels of trade diversion are partly reproduced in Figure 2.2 below.

2.2.9 The updated tables show that with the inclusion of the Brookfield Retail Park extension retail commitment in the impact assessment all defined centres are estimated to experience only a marginal increase in impact (again no more than 0.3% impact).

Quantitative Impact Sensitivity Testing

2.2.10 As noted at paragraph 4.3.1 of the 2017 RLIS, at the Council’s request the RLIS also undertook quantitative impact testing of two comparison goods scenarios. We provide an update on these scenarios below. As part of this addendum, in response to ‘Regulation 19 Representations’, we also provide an additional sensitivity impact scenario testing higher levels of trade draw from the surrounding three larger centres of Harlow, Welwyn Garden City, and Enfield.

Sensitivity Testing 1 – Retail & Leisure Study Comparison Goods Capacity Floorspace (Uplift in Market Share)

2.2.11 Given that the level of comparison goods turnover/floorspace capacity under the market share uplift scenario identified in the Retail & Leisure Study 2nd Addendum (May 2018) at 2033 (£221.5m /34,400sq m net) is now greater than the planned comparison goods floorspace at Brookfield Riverside (£187.5m at 2033 / up to 28,000sq m net) we do not consider it necessary to update this scenario.

Sensitivity Testing 2 – Previous Core Strategy Comparison Goods Floorspace (Tested in July 2011 Core Strategy Bridging Report

2.2.12 The previous Core Strategy planned for 35,000sq m net comparison goods floorspace at Brookfield. The assessed cumulative levels of trade diversion are set out in Updated Tables Gi, Gii, and Giii at Appendix C and are partly reproduced in Figure 2.3 overleaf.

2.2.13 The impact on the 2026 retail turnover of centres is, as expected, identified to be greater than the now planned comparison goods floorspace for Brookfield, with the following impacts, under Scenario B, assessed:

• Waltham Cross Town Centre – 4.8% (increase of 0.8% when compared to impact of now planned floorspace);

• Hoddesdon Town Centre – 3.0% (+0.2% increase);

• Harlow Town Centre – 7.8% (+1.5% increase);

• Enfield Town Centre – 6.7% (1.3% increase); and

• Welwyn Garden City Town Centre – 4.0% (+0.7% increase).

2.2.14 Figure 2.3 also shows that all centres are still anticipated to benefit from an increase in retail turnover in the period 2018-2026.

New Sensitivity Testing 3 – Higher Level of Comparison Goods Trade Diversion from Harlow, Enfield, and Welwyn Garden City Town Centres

2.2.15 We provide below a new sensitivity impact test in response to comments made in ‘Regulation 19 Representations’ in relation to the assessed retail trade draw patterns of the planned Brookfield development.

2.2.16 As noted earlier, the pattern of trade draw to the planned comparison goods floorspace has been assessed having regard to the trade draw patterns of existing retail facilities at Brookfield. The pattern of trade assessed from each zone has then been assessed having regard to the character of the planned development, existing shopping patterns and the location of existing retail facilities.

2.2.17 In order to respond to a number of the matters raised in ‘Regulation 19 Representations’ in relation to differing views on the assessed retail trade draw patterns of the planned Brookfield from the larger surrounding centres this new sensitivity impact scenario tests a higher level of comparison goods trade draw from Harlow (25%), Enfield (20%) and Welwyn Garden City (20%) town centres (65% trade draw overall).

2.2.18 For robustness we have not reduced the level of comparison goods trade assessed to be drawn from other centres both inside and outside the Borough. This scenario does however reduce the level of comparison goods trade estimated to be drawn from existing facilities in Brookfield and also assumes a lower level of comparison goods trade draw from outside the Survey Area.

2.2.19 The assessed cumulative levels of trade diversion for this sensitivity test are set out in Tables Hi, Hii and Hiii at Appendix C and are partly reproduced in Figure 2.4 below.

2.2.20 Figure 2.4 shows that even if it assumed that a higher level of trade is diverted from Harlow, Enfield and Welwyn Garden City town centres, under Scenario B, the level of impacts on their 2026 turnovers do not exceed 10% and all centres are still anticipated to benefit from an increase in retail turnover in the period 2018-2026. Given the current health of the centres (discussed later in Section 4) and our findings that no significant adverse impact arises on in-centre investment (discussed in Section 3 and Section 5 of the 2017 RLIS), we consider that such levels of quantitative retail impact is unlikely to undermine the trading position of these sub-regional centres.

3.0 Updated Impact Assessment on Existing, Committed & Planned In-Centre Investment

3.1 Introduction

3.1.1 The in-centre public/private sector investment assessment undertaken in the 2017 RLIS was informed by discussions/correspondence with planning policy officers in neighbouring authorities. The discussions/correspondence resulted in the production of a number of schedules which are appended at Appendix E of 2017 RLIS. The schedules provide details of each identified investment and Section 5 of the 2017 RLIS provides an assessment.

3.1.2 In their representations to the Pre-submission Local Plan (Regulation 19 Stage) Harlow Council have identified a further potential investment site that requires consideration: ‘Harlow Town Centre North Site’.

3.1.3 No other additional/new sites have been identified by neighbouring authorities that require further consideration. This supports our own review/appraisal of the centres outside the Borough. Planning officers at the Borough of Broxbourne Council has also confirmed that there are no additional/new sites that need to be reviewed as part of this updated impact assessment.

3.1.4 The remainder of this section assesses the potential impact of the proposed Brookfield Riverside development on the ‘Harlow Town Centre North Site’. In doing so we have had regard to paragraph 17 of the NPPG which identifies that key considerations of an assessment will include:

• The policy status of the investment (i.e. whether it is outlined in the Development Plan).

• The progress made towards securing the investment (for example if contracts are established).

• The extent to which an application is likely to undermine planned development or investments based on the effect on current/forecast turnovers, operator demand and investor confidence.

3.1.5 A schedule providing details of the Harlow Town Centre North Site is attached at Appendix D.

3.2 Impact on Harlow Town Centre North Site

3.2.1 The ‘Town Centre North Site’ is identified under saved policy RTCS5 of the Adopted Replacement Harlow Local Plan as playing a key role in diversifying the town centre to develop entertainment, leisure, food, drink and residential uses to strengthen the evening economy of the town centre.

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 14 www.wyg.com

3.2.2 The site, which measures approximately 4.1ha, is split into three separate areas by policy RTCS5:

1. Land South of Fourth Avenue and North of Kitson Street and Post Office Road;

2. Post Office and Adams House; and

3. Market Square and Northgate.

3.2.3 The site is in active use by a mix of uses including retail and leisure, a multi-storey car park, office and a Post Office. We understand that there are currently no plans, planning application or timescales for the potential comprehensive leisure led redevelopment of this site. It is noted that planning permission was granted for the demolition of the multi-storey car park at Kitson Way for a mixed use residential led mixed-use scheme including 170 apartments and 856sq m of commercial floorspace. We understand that this planning permission has expired. Prior Approval has also recently been confirmed for the change of use of the upper floors of Market House from B1 to C3 use class.

3.2.4 Accordingly, there are currently no investment plans for commercial leisure uses (or indeed any other use) for the site to impact upon. Our conclusions are, in part, supported by those of Harlow Council’s retail planning advisors, GVA, who have advised Harlow Council as follows:

“Overall we consider that it would be unlikely that a ‘significant adverse’ impact against in-centre commercial leisure provision in Harlow would arise as a consequence of the development of the proposed facilities at Brookfield Riverside, based on the uses mix (i.e. a cinema alongside a supporting food & beverage mix) and quantum of floorspace (4,000 sq.m) identified by WYG.”

Paragraph 1.40, GVA Retail Planning Advice to Harlow Council on WYG Brookfield RLIS, November 2016

3.3 Conclusions

3.3.1 In their representations to the Pre-submission Local Plan (Regulation 19 Stage) Harlow Council identified a further potential investment site that requires consideration: ‘Harlow Town Centre North Site’.

3.3.2 The foregoing analysis of the ‘Harlow Town Centre North Site’ identifies that the planned Brookfield development will not harm this potential investment coming forward.

3.3.3 Accordingly, our conclusions in the 2017 RLIS in relation to impact on in-centre investment in Harlow Town Centre remain applicable. There is no available evidence to support that a significant adverse impact will arise on in-centre investment in Harlow or any other assessed centre.

4.0 Updated Impact Assessment on Centre Vitality and Viability

4.1 Introduction

4.1.1 This section of the statement provides an updated impact assessment on the vitality and viability of centres considered within the 2017 RLIS. The updated assessment has regard to: (1) our review of the health of the centres within the Borough undertaken in May 2018; and (2) any updated health check assessments of relevant centres outside the administrative area undertaken on behalf of neighbouring authorities. It also has regard to the updated quantitative impact assessment undertaken in Section 2 of this addendum.

4.1.2 As noted earlier, it is important that this addendum is read alongside the 2017 RLIS and the assessment/findings contained therein.

4.2 Updated Impact Assessment on Vitality and Viability of Centres within Broxbourne

Waltham Cross Town Centre

4.2.1 Our vitality and viability health check of Waltham Cross Town Centre undertaken in January 2015 as part of the Broxbourne Retail & Leisure Study found the centre to be generally vital and viable. Our further review of the town centre in May 2018 finds that the centre is still vital and viable. In particular:

• the centre has seen a further reduction in vacant units (from 15 to 8 between 2015-2018) with the proportion of units vacant (5%) significantly below the UK average (12%).

• the environmental quality of the centre remains mixed;

• the centre continues to be accessible to a variety of modes of transport;

• the number of units occupied by comparison goods retailers has increased (from 61 to 67 between 2015-2018) with the current proportion (46%) being significantly higher than the UK average (38%);

• high levels of footfall were monitored in the southern part of the centre with more limited draw still observed to the northern end of the High Street; and

• The number and proportion of units in retail service use has improved (from 50 (34%) to 52 (36%) between 2015-2018).

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 16 www.wyg.com

4.2.2 Taking into account the updated health check findings of the centre and the quantitative retail impact assessment our previous findings identified at paragraph 7.2.3 of the 2017 RLIS remain unchanged. This updated assessment in this addendum finds that:

• the town centre continues to be both vital and viable (with a reducing vacancy rate); and

• the planned Brookfield development is unlikely to harm the trading position of existing retail facilities in the centre. The updated assessment finds that the level of retail trade/turnover assessed to be diverted is assessed to still be low (-3.8% at 2026) and the retail turnover is assessed to continue to grow (+18.7% between 2018-2026).

4.2.3 Accordingly, the planned Brookfield development is unlikely to have a significant adverse impact on the vitality and viability or role of Waltham Cross Town Centre.

Hoddesdon Town Centre

4.2.4 As set out in paragraph 7.2.4 of the 2017 RLIS, Hoddesdon Town Centre was found to be vibrant in our January 2015 health check assessment. Our further review of the town centre in May 2018 supports that the centre remains vibrant and vital and its vitality and viability has further improved:

• the number of vacant units in the centre has significantly reduced since 2015 (from 14 to 6). The proportion of units vacant (4%) is now substantially below the UK average (12%);

• the environmental quality of the centre remains in good condition which is reflected in the majority of the High Street being designated as a Conservation Area and containing a number of locally and nationally Listed Buildings;

• there continues to be a good mix of both multiple and independent retailers/service operators with the larger foodstore encouraging people to link trips;

• healthy levels of footfall were monitored throughout the centre with particularly high levels monitored between both the Sainsbury’s and Morrison’s stores and the High Street; and

• the redevelopment of the site at the corner of Conduit Lane and Brewery Road has improved the environmental quality of this part of the town centre and provided new active frontages.

4.2.5 Our earlier impact findings identified at paragraph 7.2.6 of the 2017 RLIS remain unchanged. The updated assessments in this addendum finds that:

• the town centre remains vibrant (with a very low and reducing vacancy rate); and

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 17 www.wyg.com

• the planned Brookfield development is unlikely to materially harm the trading position of existing retail facilities in the centre. The updated assessment finds that the level of retail trade/turnover assessed to be diverted is assessed to still be low (-2.8% at 2026) and the retail turnover is assessed to continue to growth (+9.4% between 2018-2026).

4.2.6 Overall, based on the findings of the 2017 RLIS and this addendum it is assessed that the cumulative impact of the planned Brookfield development and commitments on the vitality and viability of Hoddesdon Town Centre is acceptable.

Cheshunt Old Pond District Centre

4.2.7 The 2015 Retail Study and 2017 RLIS identifies that Cheshunt Old Pond District Centre serves a more local role and has a more limited offer in terms of its retail and service provision in comparison to Waltham Cross and Hoddesdon town centres. It offers a notable local service sector and a reasonable convenience goods provision. Our further review of the centre in May 2018 finds the role and function of the district centre has not materially changed.

4.2.8 The January 2015 health check of the district centre identified that it was in good health and performing well. Our further recent review of the centre supports these findings:

• the centre continues to provide a strong service provision with a large number of restaurants, cafes, banks, estate agents and hairdressers present;

• the vacancy level (6% (5 units)) remains significantly below the UK average (12%) and has reduced since 2015 (-2%);

• there remains scope for improvement in the environmental quality of the district centre;

• the centre remains accessible by public transport albeit is still quite car-dependent; and

• whilst the centre benefits from a significant walk-in and drive-by trade the main roads continue to impede pedestrian flows.

4.2.9 Having regard to the findings of the updated health check of the centre and the low levels of impacts assessed on the centre (-1.7% at 2026) identified in the updated quantitative retail impact assessment the findings identified at paragraph 7.2.9 of the 2017 RLIS still remain applicable. The planned Brookfield development is not considered to result in any significant adverse impacts on the vitality and viability or role of the centre.

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 18 www.wyg.com

4.3 Updated Impact Assessment on Vitality and Viability of Centres outside Broxbourne

Harlow Town Centre

4.3.1 The updated vitality and viability assessment in the Harlow Council’s 2016 Retail and Leisure Needs Study identifies that the centre, for the most part, continues to perform well against key vitality and viability indicators:

• diversity of uses is good;

• the centre has a generally good mix of ‘mid-market’ comparison goods retailers;

• there is considerable investment in Harlow Town Centre taking place at present;

• prime Zone A rents have decreased but recent investment in the centre should hopefully assist in stabilising this;

• the town centre north area struggling for vitality and viability;

• there remains an opportunity to improve the physical appearance of the centre; and

• the presence of two foodstores, the civic offices, and a limited number of leisure uses help contribute to the vitality and viability of the centre.

4.3.2 Taking into account the updated health check findings of the centre, the updated quantitative retail impact assessment, our previous findings identified at paragraph 7.3.4 of the 2017 RLIS remain applicable. The planned Brookfield development is unlikely to have a significant adverse impact on the vitality and viability or role of Harlow Town Centre. Of particular note, the updated assessments in this addendum finds that:

• the town centre continues to perform well, for the most part, against key vitality and viability indicators;

• the planned Brookfield development would not result in any significant adverse impact on the Harlow Town Centre North site or any other potential investment site, in the town centre; and

• the trading position of existing facilities in the town centre is unlikely to be materially harmed as a result of the planned Brookfield development. The updated assessment finds that the level of retail trade/turnover assessed to be diverted is assessed to still be low (-6.3% at 2026) and the retail turnover is assessed to continue to growth (+22.8% between 2018-2026).

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 19 www.wyg.com

Enfield Town Centre

4.3.3 The latest published health check findings for Enfield Town Centre undertaken on behalf of Enfield Council is provided in the 2014 Enfield Retail Town Centre Study (although this document is dated 2014 it had not been approved by Enfield ‘Full Council’ at the time of the original 2017 RLIS). Like the 2007 health check for the town centre the study identifies a number of strengths and weaknesses with the centre including:

• the centre as a whole provides a good range of national and independent comparison retailers

• narrow footpaths and street clutter detract from the visual appearance of the centre;

• the centre’s vacancy rate is much lower than the UK average;

• the one-way gyratory system and traffic speeds impact on the shopping environment;

• the Palace Gardens Shopping Centres provides a good range of national comparison retailers in a pleasant pedestrianised environment;

• the evening economy could be improved; and

• there is a good selection of national multiple convenience retailers which are supported by good quality independent traders.

4.3.4 Having regard to the Council’s latest health check assessment it is considered that Enfield Town Centre continues to display goods levels of vitality and viability.

4.3.5 Taking into account the latest health check findings, the updated quantitative retail impact assessment and our previous findings at paragraph 7.3.7 of our original RLIS, it is still assessed that the planned Brookfield development is unlikely to have a significant adverse impact on the vitality and viability or role of Enfield Town Centre:

• the Council’s most recent health check assessment indicates that it displays good levels of vitality and viability; and

• the planned Brookfield development is unlikely to materially harm the trading position of existing retail facilities in the centre. The assessed impact is still considered to be low (-5.4% at 2026) and the centre is still anticipated to see an increase in turnover (+15.6%) between 2018-2026.

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 20 www.wyg.com

Welwyn Garden City Town Centre

4.3.6 The latest vitality and viability health check assessment of Welwyn Garden City Town Centre undertaken on behalf of Borough Council remains that which was undertaken as part of the 2016 Retail and Leisure Needs Assessment Update. Our original February 2017 RLIS (paragraph 7.3.8-7.3.9) has regard to this latest health check assessment. The assessment indicates that the town centre is considered to display very good levels of vitality and viability.

4.3.7 The updated quantitative retail impact assessment in this addendum identifies that the assessed level of retail impact on Welwyn Garden City Town Centre as a result of the planned Brookfield development remains low (3.5%) with the centre still anticipated to experience growth in the period 2018-2026 (+27.9%).

4.3.8 Accordingly, having regard to the updated quantitative retail impact assessment and our previous findings in paragraph 7.3.9 of the original RLIS, our previous conclusions remain applicable. It is assessed that the planned Brookfield development will not result in a significant adverse impact on the vitality and viability of Welwyn Garden City Town Centre.

Other Town Centres

4.3.9 For the town centres of Hertford, Hatfield, Stevenage and Ware, the 2017 RLIS takes into account the latest health check assessment of the centres undertaken on behalf of the relevant Councils. These are:

• Hertford Town Centre - East Herts Council Retail and Town Centre Study Update (2013);

• Hatfield Town Centre - Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council Retail and Leisure Needs Assessment Update (2016);

• Stevenage Town Centre - Stevenage Borough Council Revised Stevenage Retail Study (2014); and

• Ware Town Centre - East Herts Council Retail and Town Centre Study Update (2013).

4.3.10 A summary of the health check findings are contained at paragraphs 7.3.10, 7.3.12, 7.3.15, and 7.3.17 of the 2017 RLIS.

4.3.11 The updated quantitative retail impact assessment undertaken as part of this addendum updates the quantitative retail impact assessment undertaken as part of the original 2017 RLIS. Section 2 of the addendum finds that the level of trade diversions from all four town centres to the planned Brookfield development remains low (between -1.6%-3.8% at 2026); the retail turnover of each town centre is assessed to continue to grow (between 14.3%-17.1% - 2018-2026); and as a result, the trading position of existing retail facilities in the centres will not be materially harmed.

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 21 www.wyg.com

4.3.12 Accordingly, having regard to the updated quantitative retail impact assessment undertaken as part of this addendum our conclusions for each of the four town centres set out in Section 7 of the 2017 RLIS remain unchanged. Brookfield is unlikely to result in a significant adverse impact on the vitality and viability or role of Hertford, Hatfield, Stevenage or Ware town centres.

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 22 www.wyg.com

5.0 Overall Conclusions

5.1 Introduction

5.1.1 This statement represents an addendum to the February 2017 Brookfield Retail and Leisure Impact Study. The addendum has been prepared in advance of the Local Plan hearing sessions which are due to take place in September this year.

5.1.2 The addendum takes into account the following:

• the Borough of Broxbourne Retail Study 2 nd Retail Addendum, dated May 2018;

• health check update reviews of Waltham Cross and Hoddesdon town centres and Cheshunt Old Pond District Centre;

• any further potential investment sites identified by neighbouring LPA’s; and

• vitality and viability health check assessments and retail turnover data published since the February 2017 Retail Impact by neighbouring local planning authorities (to support their emerging local plans).

5.2 Updated Quantitative Retail Impact Assessment

5.2.1 The level of quantitative impacts estimated in this updated RLIS are broadly similar to those previous assessed in the 2017 RLIS. Primarily as a result of a lower retail turnover identified in the 2017 Harlow Retail Study the impact of Brookfield is estimated to be slightly higher (+0.8%). Enfield, Welwyn Garden City and Hatfield town centres are all anticipated to experience broadly similar levels of estimated impacts when compared to the 2017 RLIS (-0.9% Welwyn Garden City, -0.4% Enfield, +0.2% Hatfield).

5.2.2 The impact levels identified in the updated impact assessment are still considered to be low with retail turnover growth having mitigating effects on the examined impact arising from trade diversion to the planned Brookfield development.

5.2.3 In response to comments made in ‘Regulation 19 Representations’ this addendum has also provided an additional sensitivity impact scenario testing a higher level of comparison goods trade diversion from Harlow, Enfield and Welwyn Garden City town centres to the planned Brookfield development. Given the current health of the centres and our findings that no significant adverse impact arises on in-centre investment we consider that even with the levels of quantitative retail impact the trading position of these sub-regional centres is unlikely to be undermined.

Brookfield RLIS Addendum Page 23 www.wyg.com

5.3 Updated Impact Assessment on In-Centre Investment

5.3.1 Harlow Council have identified a further potential investment site that requires consideration as part of the assessment of impact of the planned Brookfield development. No other additional/new sites have been identified by neighbouring authorities that require further consideration which supports our own review/appraisal of the centres outside the Borough.

5.3.2 The impact assessment on the identified ‘Harlow Town Centre North Site’ identifies that the 4.1ha site is identified as playing a key role in diversifying the town centre to develop entertainment, leisure, food, drink and residential uses to strengthen the evening economy of the town centre. The analysis in this addendum identifies that the planned Brookfield development will not harm potential investment coming forward on this site.

5.3.3 Our conclusions in our 2017 RLIS in relation to impact on-in centre investment remain applicable. There is no available evidence to support that a significant adverse impact will arise on in-centre investment in Harlow or any other assessed centre.

5.4 Updated Impact Assessment on Centre Vitality & Viability

Centres within Borough

5.4.1 Having due regard to the updated health checks findings for Hoddesdon and Waltham Cross town centres and Cheshunt Old Pond District Centre and the updated quantitative retail impact assessment our conclusions with regard to impact of the planned Brookfield development on centre vitality and viability remain applicable. We consider it unlikely that the Brookfield development would result in a significant adverse impact on the vitality and viability of any defined centres within the Borough.

Centres outside Borough

5.4.2 The updated impact assessment on the vitality and viability of centres outside the Borough considers updated health check assessment undertaken on behalf of neighbouring Council’s published since the original 2017 RLIS. It also has regard to the updated quantitative retail impact assessment findings and updated impact assessment on in-centre investment. Our updated assessment finds that no significant adverse impacts on the vitality and viability of any assessed centres outside the Borough arise.

5.5 Overall Conclusions

5.5.1 Having regard to the impact assessment update contained in this addendum together with analysis contained in the 2017 RLIS we remain of the view that no significant adverse impact will arise on in- centre investment or the vitality and viability of any of the assessed defined centres within or outside the Borough.
