The purpose of the IDP is to evaluate the transport, utilities, community and green infrastructure and services that will be required to support the levels of housing and employment growth proposed in the draft Allocations Development Plan Document (DPD) now known as the Allocations Plan. This version of the IDP presents a refresh of the FoD IDP and has been prepared in part on the basis of the information received from various service providers as part of the consultation process, and on the understanding that the FoD was planning for some 5,290 new homes. This was the position of the draft Allocations Plan. The report has been prepared with the following caveats: The cost and specification information received for individual infrastructure schemes has not been audited or tested for accuracy. It has not always been possible to ascertain whether some of the infrastructure projects identified have confirmed or guaranteed funding to deliver them; The IDP is a high level assessment of infrastructure need which is based on the information received and benchmark indices. This provides an assessment which is based partly on theoretical costings and estimates and which should be further defined as information becomes available; Where we have not received an accurate or satisfactory level of actual project information from infrastructure providers, costs and project specifications have been benchmarked and estimated using industry standards and comparable project information from other parts of the UK and/or previous infrastructure projects designed and implemented by Arup; We accept that there may be cases where the cost of delivering infrastructure items (for example, some social and community infrastructure) could be reduced by collocating different services together. No allowance has been made at this stage of the potential to collocate and therefore reduce the cost of delivering individual services in multifunctional buildings. This would require further discussions with service providers; Infrastructure delivery planning is a live process and it is expected that the figures in this report will change over time. Further work, including infrastructure modelling and on-going consultation with service providers and developers, will be required to refine an understanding of infrastructure requirements, funding and delivery mechanisms. A detailed project tracker which accompanies this report will need to be maintained and updated over years to come to provide the most up to date and accurate picture of the overall funding and delivery picture for infrastructure across the FoD area as a whole; This IDP has been prepared on the basis of 5,290 new homes being built (situation as of September 2014); and The project tracker attached to this IDP identifies the projects which have emerged during the preparation of the document. There are likely to be other | Issue | 16 February 2015 Page 1 J:\226XXX\226824-00\4.50_REPORTS\FOREST OF DEAN IDP\REFRESH SEPTEMBER 2014\FOD_IDP_WD ISSUE 16 FEB 2015.DOCX Forest of Dean District Council Infrastructure Delivery Plan projects that may come on stream which have not been identified and for this reason, the project tracker forms a live document which will continue to be updated over the plan period up to 2026. The next stage of infrastructure planning within the FoD area will involve the FoD District Authority continuing to work collaboratively with key service providers in order to make decisions around prioritisation of projects. Further work on the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) will aid this prioritisation process and the IDP tracker will form an important tool in identifying, developing and prioritising projects across the FoD area. IDP Development Scenarios The IDP has been through two revisions with a Stage 1 Interim Version IDP prepared in March 2013, with this document is the Stage 2 Refresh Version IDP to be published in December 2014. This document provides an Executive Summary in support of this Stage 2 IDP and the process of preparation is summarised in the table below. Housing Growth The Allocations Plan covers a period up to 2026. Over this period the draft Allocations Plan (July 2014) proposes total housing provision of 5,290 new dwellings. The following tables present the proposed residential and employment allocations based on the July 2014 housing provision by settlement area, as agreed by the FoD authority for inclusion in the IDP Refresh process.

In exploring infrastructure requirements, the IDP applies an average household size at 2026 of 2.35 persons, derived from dividing the forecast population at 2026 by the number of households in the District, as advised by FoD. This is considered the most pragmatic approach to the forecasting of the population expected from each proposed development allocation. This approach considers the demands on infrastructure generated by the proposed development, including both the planned growth as well as movement within the District and changes in demographics, for example a reduction in household size. Benchmark standards have been applied to the whole plan period (2014-2026). These standards are developed in order to forecast demand for various pieces of infrastructure in line with projected housing growth. For example, a child yield is used in order to estimate the number of primary, secondary and further education places generated by projected growth.

  • Keynote 18 Severn Estuary
    Page 1 of 26 AP18 Severn Estuary – August 2015 Purpose This evidence paper has been developed to provide some context as to the Forest of Dean District Council Allocations Plan (AP) and the Severn Estuary SSSI, SPA, SAC and Ramsar (referred to as the Severn Estuary European Site (SEES) in this paper). It provides further background information in supporting the Allocations Plan (AP) Habitats Regulations Assessment (HRA) in regard to potential recreational/disturbance impacts in the Lydney Harbour area. The Allocations Plan Habitats Regulations Assessment With regard to disturbance effects in the majority of cases the mitigation provided for in the Core Strategy were considered sufficient to address concerns for any potential adverse impacts. However the HRA screening identified that the quantum of proposed development in the Lydney area had, on a precautionary basis, the potential for likely significant affect alone or in combination on the SEES. However the HRA also identified that the potential impacts from disturbance to the Severn Estuary have to be set in terms of the whole of the amenities in the district. The Forest of Dean and Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty are a significant tourist attraction with many formal and informal recreation sites attracting large number of visitors and locals. The HRA found that a number of changes should be made to the Allocations Plan to ensure there were no potential significant adverse impacts of the SEES. These included avoidance and cancellation measures, including additional text in the section on Lydney and policy caveats, to demonstrate how adverse effects on site integrity will be avoided.
