Maidstone Borough Council Freedom of Information Act Request Ref: FOI Maidstone Borough Council Freedom of Information Act Request Ref: FOI 6853 Date: 8th March Request I have checked the caravan count figures for Maidstone and they need clarification. In the Caravan Count figures July 2017: last six counts, are listed the following: Column 949 - E07000110 - Maidstone –2017 – July Authorised sites (with planning permission) No. of Caravans on Sites on Travellers own Land. Authorised sites (with planning Permission) Private Caravans - 39 caravans with Temporary permission Unauthorised sites (without planning permission) 158 tolerated caravans Questions: 1 Please detail the names of the sites with the 39 caravans with Temporary permission. 2 Please detail the names of the sites with the 158 tolerated caravans Response: It is the number of caravans on public sites which totals 39 caravans. The number of caravans with temporary permission at the July 2017 count was reported as 6. It is apparent that there have been some errors in uploading the information and there are in fact 10 caravans with temporary permission. The reason for the lower figure is due to the fact that 2 sites have been incorrectly classified as having permanent permission. The sites which count towards the 10 caravans on authorised sites with temporary permission are as follows: Acers Place/Land Adjoining Greengates, Lenham Road, Headcorn Plot 4 The Meadows, Lenham Road, Headcorn Maplehurst Lane, Frittenden Road, Staplehurst Land At Pye Corner Greenfields, Stilebridge Lane, Linton The Stables, Frittenden Road, Staplehurst Ash Tree Place, Hampstead Lane, Nettlestead The number of ‘tolerated’ caravans at the July 2017 count was recorded as 158. However, it is apparent that there have been some errors in uploading the information and there are in fact 165 ‘tolerated’ caravans. The reason for the lower figure is due to the incorrect classification of 4 sites as either authorised or unauthorised sites. Furthermore, the number of caravans at 2 sites has been incorrectly recorded. The sites which count towards the ‘tolerated’ 165 caravans on unauthorised sites are as follows: The Paddock, Detling Hill, Thurnham The Three Sons. Hampstead Lane, Nettlestead White House Farm, Stilebridge Lane, Linton The Vine, Green Hill Lane, Ulcombe Green Tops. Symonds Lane, Yalding Pear Paddock, Symonds Lane, Yalding Pear View, Symonds Lane, Yalding Long Lane, Lenham Road, Headcorn Land Rear of the Meadows (Plot 1-10) Lenham Road, Headcorn The Stables, Wagon Lane, Yalding Hertsfield Farm, Staplehurst Road, Marden 1 Oak Lodge, Tilden Lane, Marden Plot 3 The Meadows, Lenham Road, Headcorn The Oakes Frittenden Road, Staplehurst Land South of Love Lane, Love Lane, Headcorn Ten Acre Farm, Love Lane, Headcorn Blossom, Maplehurst Lane, Frittenden Road, Staplehurst Land at the Rosings, Smarden Road, Headcorn Plot 2 The Oakes, Frittenden Road, Staplehurst Udene Barn Stud, Marden Road, Staplehurst Land at Squirrel Wood, Rumstead Lane, Stockbury Horseshoes, Hook Lane, Hucking Land At Cherry Tree Farm, West Wood Road, Stockbury Flips Hole, South Street Road, Stockbury The Ash, Yelsted Road, Stockbury Little Paddock, Stilebridge Lane, Linton Land Adj Horseshoe Paddock, Lucks Lane Chart Sutton Land East of Water Lane, Water Lane, Headcorn Plot 1 Land adjacent the Potters, Love Lane, Headcorn Plot 2 Land Adjacent the Potters, Love Lane, Headcorn The Pottery, Potters Field, Headcorn Cherry Gardens, Collier Street, Tonbridge Land on South Side of Love Lane (The Paddocks), Love Lane, Headcorn Land South of New Barn Farm, Park Lane Land South East of Stilebridge Lane (The Barn), Stilebridge Lane, Linton Land At Stockbury Valley, Detling Fairhaven, Queen Street, Yalding Green Acres, Land At Wagon Lane, Yalding Land Rear of Brickyard Cottages, Redwall Lane, Hunton Rosewood Farm, Scragged Oak Road, Detling The Coppice Rumstead Lane, Stockbury Land Adj Forstal Farm, Forstal Lane, Coxheath Plot A, Plum Tree Lane, Stockbury Plot B, Plum Tree Lane, Stockbury Plot C, Plum Tree Lane, Stockbury As the caravan count is a ‘snapshot’ survey, the list above includes sites which were subject to a current planning application, an undetermined appeal and/or enforcement action at the date the survey was undertaken in July 2017. .

  • Headcorn PC Response to Employment Paper ED118
    Maidstone Borough Local Plan Examination: Consultation on ED118 Employment findings – Response by Headcorn Parish Council, February 2017 1) Headcorn Parish Council is the elected body that represents the residents of Headcorn Parish. Headcorn Parish is a designated Neighbourhood Plan Area, and Maidstone Borough Council has assigned it rural service centre status. The views expressed in this consultation response have been informed by the evidence gathered to underpin Headcorn’s Neighbourhood Plan. Headcorn’s Neighbourhood Plan is at an advanced stage, having completed its Regulation 16 Consultation on February 26, 2016 and is now at examination. Completion of the examination has been delayed, as the original examiner for Headcorn’s Neighbourhood Plan was forced to withdraw, having lost her accreditation. Therefore, Headcorn’s Neighbourhood Plan had to be sent to a second examiner, and the examination expected to be completed by the end of February 2017 following a further delay due to the examiner’s ill health. Headcorn’s Neighbourhood Plan enjoys considerable local support, with 93.9% of respondents for the Regulation 14 consultation supporting the draft Plan and similar support expressed at Regulation 16 Consultation. Therefore the views expressed in this consultation response about Headcorn’s development should be seen as representative of the overall needs and priorities of the people and businesses within Headcorn Parish. This response has been prepared for Headcorn Parish Council with the help of Dr Rebecca Driver. Dr Driver is Director of the research consultancy Analytically Driven Ltd. She is an economist with over 25 years of experience and her work has focused primarily on research and evidence to support policy makers.
