Introduction 1.1 Tendring District Council (TDC) has prepared a Local Plan to guide development up to 2033. The Local Plan comprises two sections. Section 1 was prepared in partnership with Braintree District Council and Colchester Borough Council (the North Essex authorities) and plans for the creation of three garden communities across North Essex, which will include longer term development beyond the plan period. Section 2 is unique to Tendring and includes allocations and policies to guide development in the Tendring District up to 2033. 1.2 The timetable for the Local Plan production, as set out in the Local Development Scheme, has been as follows: Issues and Options consultation (Regulation 18) - 1 September - 13 October 2015 Preferred Options consultation (Regulation 18) – 14 July - 8 September 2016 Publication Draft consultation (Regulation 19) – 16 June – 28 July 2017 Submission to Secretary of State (Regulation 22) October 2017 1.3 This Consultation Statement accompanies the submission documents for examination. 1.4 Regulation 18(1) of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 provides that a local planning authority must invite consultees to ‘make representations to the local planning authority about what a local plan…ought to contain’, and that the local authority should then take account of these views when developing its plan. Accordingly an Issues and Options document seeking views on what the new Local Plan ought to contain was published for public consultation from 1 September to 13 October 2015. At the same time, landowners and developers were invited to put forward potential development sites (‘call for sites’). 1.5 The Issues and Options document provided background on the plan-making process and then posed a series of open-ended questions on key issues and high level options for growth. The document made it clear that the local planning authority was at the initial stages of considering policy and site allocation options. It also made clear that it was open to suggestions from all respondents on how the Local Plan can best be revised to meet the needs of a growing population, changing social and economic circumstances, and evolving national policies. 1.6 Following the Issues and Options consultation the local planning authority considered all representations (610), which are summarised in this Statement, the evidence base, national policy, and began the process of drafting the Preferred Options Local Plan. 1.7 The Preferred Options Local Plan was published for consultation from 14 July to 8 September 2016. 1,537 representations were received on numerous aspects of the Preferred Options Local Plan. Following consideration of all representations received and further evidence the LPA amended the Preferred Options draft and the Council approved the Publication Draft Local Plan for consultation on June 2017. The Publication Draft Local Plan was published for consultation from 16 June to 28 July 2017. 3 2. Legislation and requirements 2.1 Regulation 17(d) of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 (as amended) states that proposed submission documents include a Consultation Statement.

IMPORTANT GUIDANCE TO THE USE OF THIS WATER CYCLE STUDY The Haven Gateway water Cycle Study was undertaken as a sub-regional study which covered a number of local authority areas. As such the level of detail entered in to for the study may be lower than a study carried out at a local planning authority or development area. The Stage 2 of the study was prepared over a period of 18 months from May 2008 to October 2009. During this period there have been a number of developing initiatives, particularly within the planning policy development, and the local authorities are at various stages within the processes which has meant that differing levels of information have been available across the sub-region. The report is based primarily on data valid at the end of 2008 and has not, in general, included changes to data or policies since that date.

However, its effectiveness depends upon the way in which it is managed. This is not simply a matter of controls being exercised by the District Council, there are incentives too, and significant contributions to be made by local businesses, residents and community groups. The purpose of the plan, therefore, is to show how each can play a part in making Kirby-le-Soken a better place to live in, to work in and to visit.

  • Great Bromley Parish Council
    Great Bromley Parish Council MINUTES OF THE MEETING HELD ON WEDNESDAY 12TH JULY 2017 HELD AT GREAT BROMLEY VILLAGE HALL In attendance: Cllrs Strowbridge (Chairman), Lord (Vice-Chairman) (items 7 (part) – 21 only), Blowers, Day, Heaney, Mander and Perry. Clerk: Lizzie Ridout Members of the Public: 2 1. Apologies for Absence Apologies for absence were submitted from Cllrs Nicholls and Lord. 2. Declarations of Interest None. 3. To approve the minutes of the meeting held on Wednesday 14th June 2017, previously circulated. The minutes of the meeting were agreed. 4. 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.
