  • Hodnet Parish Plan
    Hodnet Community Led Five Year Plan 2016 - 2020 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Use of the term “Hodnet” in the Plan. The Hodnet Community Led Plan includes Hodnet together with Marchamley, Wollerton and Peplow. Whenever this plan alludes to "Hodnet" it is intended to represent all the communities within the parish and is used for the sake of brevity. 1.2 Relationship between the Community Led Plan and the SAMDEV. The Shropshire Site Allocations and Development Management (SAMDEV) Plan sets out the proposals for the use of land and policies to guide future development for the period up to 2026. The SAMDEV Plan has been through an exhaustive consultation process and is in the fina l stages of acceptance as the principal means to deliver the vision and objectives of the Shropshire Core Strategy. Hodnet is included in the SAMDEV where it sets out the additional development planned to 2026, the site allocations and the development bo undaries. The Hodnet Community Led Plan will provide additional detail that combined with the SAMDEV and the Core Strategy will collectively represent the development plan for determining planning applications. The criteria laid down for the development of Neigh b ourhood Development Plans are very strict and complex, and in view of this, Shropshire Council is also promoting the development of robust Community Led Plans as an acceptable and viable alternative. While the Community Led Plan does not represent a Neighbourhood Plan under the provisions of the Localism Act; Shropshire County Council has recognised that the Community Led Plan may be adopted by as additional detail to be incorporated into the formal planning process.

  • Strategic Site – Clive Barracks
    Strategic Site – Clive Barracks Location 1 Summary of Settlement Study Area and Location Introduction Clive Barracks is a Strategic Site according to Shropshire Pre-Submission Draft Local Plan (2020). This Green Infrastructure Strategy has defined the study area as a 1km buffer around the site. The identified study area partially overlaps in the north east with that of Market Drayton (Principal Centre). The former army barracks site is located near the village of Tern Hill, on the A41 strategic growth corridor. The site is approximately 4km south west of the town Market Drayton. The River Tern runs along the northern boundary of the site. This pro-forma should be reviewed alongside the pro-forma for Market Drayton to understand strategic linkages between the Clive Barracks Strategic Site and the neighbouring settlement. Development Context The site is a 72ha brownfield site comprising military infrastructure including dwellings, sports fields and an aircraft hangar. The barracks are currently occupied by the 1st (Regular) Battalion of the Royal Irish Regiment, and although initial plans to sell the barracks were announced in 2016, the site is expected to be fully vacated by 2025. Initial plans for mixed use redevelopment of the site have been discussed as part of the Local Plan Review, and the site has been proposed for development in the Pre-Submission Draft Local Plan (2020). This identifies that around 6Ha of employment land and around 750 homes are currently envisaged at the site. Grange Wood, ancient woodland Dismantled Railway west of A53 Local level cycle routes (West of A53) The River Tern 2 Existing Green Infrastructure Assets and Key Constraints 3 Existing Green Infrastructure Assets and Constraints Theme Existing Green Infrastructure Assets / Constraints Biodiversity Designated Sites ◼ There are no local or national ecological designations within the study area ◼ SSSI Impact Risk Zones associated with Hodnet Heath and Prees Heath SSSIs intersect the southern and western extents of the study area.

Well done to our home schooling parents for keeping it together and doing their best to juggle everyday life; thank you to those parents who are key workers for carrying on and helping keep the country going and thank you to our dedicated staff team for not flinching in their duties and working tirelessly to provide an excellent education for all our children wherever they are. I am sure that like us, our home-schooling parents are hoping that the Prime Minister’s expected announcement in the week beginning 22nd February will bring good news about a return to a more normal schooling pattern. Like you, we await that news in hopeful anticipation, especially as the data shows cases and infection rates falling. In the meantime, the current regime remains with key worker children in school and others receiving daily lessons via Seesaw and Teams. I thought you might like to see some of the new equipment we have bought for your Early Years rooms for our nursery and reception children.

  • Application by Adderley Parish Council for Adderley, Moreton Say and Norton in Hales Parishes to Be Considered As a Neighbourhood Area
    Committee and Date: Cabinet 12th December 2018 Application by Adderley Parish Council for Adderley, Moreton Say and Norton in Hales Parishes to be considered as a Neighbourhood Area Responsible Officer Gemma Davies, Head of Economic Growth Email: [email protected] Tel: 01743 258985 1. Summary 1.1 This report seeks approval for the application by Adderley Parish Council for the three Parish Council areas of Adderley, Moreton Say and Norton in Hales to be considered as single Neighbourhood Area for the purposes of preparing a Neighbourhood Plan. (application attached as Appendix A, proposed area map as Appendix B). Whilst the application has been made by Adderley Parish Council acting as the ‘relevant body’ for regulatory purposes, it is understood all three Parish Councils will be contributing to the Neighbourhood Plan’s preparation. 1.2 Adderley Parish Council made the application to Shropshire Council in June 2018 under the provisions of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990. In line with regulations Shropshire Council consulted on the proposed area for four weeks between August and September 2018. Three responses were received to this consultation, none of which objected to the principle of identifying the proposed Neighbourhood Area. 1.3 It is Shropshire Council’s role to decide if the proposed Neighbourhood Area is an appropriate area for the purposes of preparing a Neighbourhood Plan. This consideration should take account of any views expressed through the consultation process as well as information from the three Parish Council concerned. The recommendation focusses solely on the extent of the area to be used in the preparation of the proposed Neighbourhood Plan.

  • Appendix a Environmental Baseline
    Appendix A Environmental Baseline . Introduction The data collected to characterise the baseline environment of Telford and Wrekin Borough has been derived from numerous secondary sources, which are referenced as footnotes in this report. No new investigations or surveys have been undertaken. In some instances, it has been noted that different secondary sources present conflicting information and it has not been possible to verify which sources are the most accurate. Where this has been identified, the limitations have been noted. It should be noted that there is an abundance of environmental information available. However, the information presented in this Appendix has been chosen on the basis that it may be influenced or affected by the Local Flood Risk Management Strategy (LFRMS). Steps have been taken to avoid including information which is of no clear relevance to the LFRMS. It may be necessary to collect further data against which to assess the potential environmental effects of the LFRMS with regard to monitoring requirements. Population .. Population The topic of population is considered first in the baseline information, since the over-arching purpose of the LFRMS is to reduce flood risk to people and property. The LFRMS also seeks to increase public awareness of flooding and promote individual and community level flood resilience. A number of properties in the Telford and Wrekin Area are in areas at risk of flooding and were affected by flooding during the Summer 2007 floods. Some of the properties were affected by flooding from fluvial sources (streams, rivers) but many properties were affected from surface water flooding from sewers and drainsi.
