Examination of Leeds Site Allocation Plan (“Sap”) EXAMINATION OF LEEDS SITE ALLOCATION PLAN (“SAP”) STATEMENT ON BEHALF OF MR C MAKIN ___________________________________________________________________ MATTER 1 –PROCEDURAL REQUIREMENTS WHETHER THE LEEDS SAP MEETS THE LEGAL PROCESS AND REQUIREMENTS ________________________________________________ Amanda Beresford Shulmans LLP 10 Wellington Place Leeds LS1 4AP Tel: 0113 288 2816 Fax: 0113 246 7326 This statement is made on behalf of Mr Chris Makin to the examination of the Leeds Site Allocation Plan. It responds to Matter 1 Procedural Requirements - whether the Leeds SAP meets the legal process and requirements. It should be read in conjunction with the representatives made by Pegasus Group on behalf of Mr C Makin to the Leeds Site Allocation Plan Submission Draft Pre- submission Changes dated March 2017. These consisted of three documents listed below and include all of the representations made on behalf of Mr Makin during the various consultation stages as follows: (i) Submission Draft Pre-Submission Changes Area Proposals: 8. Outer South for Mr Makin (document ref. YOR.1969.007) inc. Appendices, dated March 2017, (ii) Submission Draft Pre-Submission Changes Area Proposals: 10. Outer South East for Mr Makin (document ref. YOR.1654.18) inc. Appendices, dated March 2017. (iii) Submission Draft Pre-Submission Changes Area Proposals: 6. Outer North East Representation for Mr Makin (document ref. YOR.1654.19A) inc. Appendices, dated March 2017. Q1. Has the Council submitted robust evidence to demonstrate that it has met the duty to co- operate? Are there any outstanding strategic matters? 1.1 S33 (A) of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 requires, inter alia, that a local planning authority must co-operate with specified persons in maximising the effectiveness of the preparation of development plan documents so far as relating to a strategic matter. Strategic matter is defined by S33A, ss4 (a) to include the sustainable development or use of land that has or would have a significant impact on at least two planning areas. 1.2 The duty to co-operate must be discharged prior to the submission of the plan for examination. 1.3 The Council’s evidence to the Examination on the duty to co-operate comprises the Duty to Co-operate Background Paper May 2017 (ref CD1/28). This includes an addendum dated September 2016 (“the Addendum”). 1.4 The Addendum was prepared in conjunction with the re-consultation of the Outer North East, Housing Market Area, (“ONE HMCA”) as a result of the withdrawal of the Headley Hall new settlement proposal and the introduction of the proposed new settlement at Parlington (MX2-39). 1.5 The Addendum refers to a proposed meeting with Selby District Council and North Yorkshire County Council to consider the new proposal for ONE which did not take place but which was replaced by a “number of co-ordinated phone calls and exchange of email 2 comments (point 4 of the Addendum)”. The impression therefore is that this co-operation was between Selby District Council and North Yorkshire County Council. Although the Addendum acknowledges that the issues were of relevance to Harrogate Council there is no clear reference to co-operation with Harrogate at this stage. 1.6 In the Council’s replies to the initial questions (penultimate paragraph on page 27) the Council state that discussions with City of York Council on HE2 – 226 are outstanding. 1.7 Therefore there appears to be no submitted robust evidence that at the time of submission of the plan to the examination, co-operation had taken place with either Harrogate Council or the City of York Council on the new ONE HMCA proposals despite its strategic implications. 1.8 Further, it is clear from the Addendum and the replies to the Inspector’s initial question of the Council that co-operation on the ONE HMCA had not been carried out by the time of submission in relation to significant strategic issues including the highway/traffic implications of the allocations in the ONE HMCA and the heritage implications of allocating the site at Parlington (MX2-39). 1.9 In the absence of proper co-operation in relation to these matters prior to submission the Council were not in a position to justify the allocations in the ONE HMCA particularly MX2- 39. It is not legitimate to try and justify the position retrospectively. Co-operation should inform the decision making process and cannot operate retrospectively. The Addendum demonstrates that any co-operation in relation to the revised proposals for ONE HMCA was after the Council had resolved to allocate the MX2-39. There can therefore have been no co-operation in relation to the decision to allocate MX2-39. In the Addendum traffic impact was considered to need mitigation and it is clear that further co-operation with Highways England was required in order to address this. No such co-operation therefore informed the decision to allocate MX2-39. Although the Addendum referred to duty to co-operate bodies having been notified of the revised proposals of ONE HMCA. It also confirms that no responses had been received at the date of publication of the background document. Therefore, on the submitted evidence none of these organisations had informed the decision to allocate MX2-39. 1.10 Therefore the Council’s evidence does not robustly demonstrate that it has met its duty to co-operate in preparing the SAP for examination. 1.11 1.5 to 1.10 above are indicative of the reactive and rushed nature of the decision to allocate MX2-39. 3 Q2. Has the Plan been prepared in accordance with the Local Development Scheme? 2.1 No Comment. Q3. Has the plan been prepared in compliance with the Statement of Community Involvement? 3.1 The consultation on the new proposals for ONE HMCA are inconsistent with the Council’s Statement of Community Involvement and Regulations 18, 19 and 20 of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) Regulations 2012 for the following reason. 3.2 On its website publicising the revised public draft consultation, the Council’s Regulation 19 statement and the response form; the LPA stress that: “Only comments relating to the Outer North East HMCA will be considered as part of this consultation”. 3.3 This statement therefore discourages representations relating to the wider issues which the allocation of MX2-39 creates, such as whether or not it is the right location to delete land from the Green Belt or whether there could be an alternative elsewhere in the Plan area and the impact on the wider infrastructure beyond the ONE HMCA area. Q4. Has the plan operation been based on a sound process of sustainability appraisal? 4.1 A sustainability appraisal incorporating the requirements of the Strategic Environmental Assessment Directive is required to comply with this directive, as transposed into English law by the Environment Assessment of Plans and Programmes Regulations 2004, the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 Section 19(5) and in accordance with the National Planning Policy set out in NPPF, paragraph 165. 4.2 The Council’s sustainability appraisal is defective in the following respects: 4.2.1 It fails to include in the assessment sites proposed to be included in the SAP under Policy HG1 which comprise unimplemented sites formally allocated in the Leeds UDP or sites with existing or recently expired planning permissions. All sites proposed for allocation in the SAP should have been subjected to the same degree of assessment. 4 4.2.2 The sustainability appraisal tests sites against 26 specified sustainability criterion. In a number of cases the application of this test was flawed. Some examples of this are as follows: (a) A choice was made between Stourton Grange Farm South (allocated site HG2-124) and Sturton Grange Farm North (site reference 1232A) (“SGFN”). SGFN was not allocated but this was not justified by the assessment. For 22 of the 26 sustainability criterion the two sites rated the same. In respect of the remaining four criterions, the unallocated SGFN is rated better in 1 (access to education (SA03)) with incorrect allocations in the other three. In SA08 (increase in social inclusion and acted community participation) SGFN is given a neutral rating when in fact it is clear that, like HG2-124 should have been given a blue rating identifying it as a large site with scope to accommodate new facilities. In relation to SA18B (reduce pollution levels) is given a lower rating than HG2-124 for the stated reason that it is located near to the motorway. However, SGFN is in excess of 50 metres from the motorway and its enhanced accessibility to the motorway junction and proximity to public transport routes are factors which should be balanced against this point in favour of SGFN. At SA21 (preserve and enhance the historic environment), SGFN is identified with a lesser rating than HG2-124 on the basis of being within 100 metres of heritage assets and where affects are uncertain. However, the only designated heritage assets within the vicinity of the SGFN are milestone on public roads, the special character and setting of both of which can be readily preserved as part of the design scheme. If the sustainability appraisal had been properly applied, SGFN would have been favoured. (For further details see Pegasus’ representation for the Leeds Site Allocation Plan Submission Draft Pre- submission changes Area Proposal 10 Outer South East, Appendix B pages 16 to 18 inclusive). (b) The sustainability appraisal fails to provide any clear conclusion that the proposed allocation of MX2-39, when judged against reasonable alternatives, of which SGFN is one, will help to achieve the relevant environmental, economic and social objectives as planned.

    SAVE PARLINGTON ACTION GROUP RESPONSE TO INSPECTORS MATTERS, ISSUES AND QUESTIONS LEEDS SITE ALLOCATIONS PLAN EXAMINATION MATTER 5 1. MATTER 5 - INFRASTRUCTURE Issue – Whether the necessary infrastructure will be in place to support the planned development. Question 1. Is the process of identifying the infrastructure requirements arising from the proposed allocations set out in the SAP, as identified in the Infrastructure Background Paper (CD1/35) sound? 1.1 SPAG has analysed the Infrastructure Background Paper (CD1/35) with regards to the site MX2-39. We acknowledge that the paper covers issues with a broad brush approach for Leeds City Council (“LCC”) generally, but when assessed for MX2-39 it is apparent that large parts of the CD1/35 are unsound. Below are relevant points from the CD1/35 document with comments. Our conclusion is that the proposed infrastructure for MX2-39 is UNSOUND. CD1-35 heading Comments 1.2 Purpose of the Page 7 The paper commits to working with communities and through Infrastructure point neighbourhood planning. SPAG contends that LCC has not Delivery Plan 1.3 worked with its communities and can provide evidence of this regarding MX2-39 1.3 Developing the SAP Page 8, The paper states that LCC has consulted with organisations such Infrastructure point as Highways England. In March 2017 SPAG met with HE, who requirements 1.5 had no knowledge of the extent of MX2-39. SPAG can provide evidence that this statement is false, and therefore UNSOUND. To date, there is no report from Highways England with regards to MX2-39. 1.4 Developing the IDP Page 8 This was undertaken in April 2013, and LCC’s methodology was point applied to the sites proposed at that time.

LCC’s replies are in black ink. BIESPC’s comments are in blue ink Question a What is the effect of the selective review of the CS on the soundness of the SAP? a.1 The effect of the Core Strategy Review (CSR) on the soundness of the SAP is considered to be minor and broadly contextual, not least because the scope of both Development Plan Documents (DPD) is substantially different; 1. LCC’s reply to this question seems merely rhetorical and lacking in detail and substantiating evidence. This answer is inconsistent with LCC’s adopted Core Strategy. Core Strategy 1.4 states “The CS is the main document setting out the overall vision and strategic level policies… All other LDF documents will be guided by its policies including the Site Allocations Plan …”. Therefore the scope of the documents cannot be ‘substantially different’ and LCC is ignoring its own policies to suit its own ends; 2. To help overcome this weakness in LCC’s response, we would request that the Inspector also asks the following question: “What is the effect of the selective review of the CS, in comparison with the effect of a comprehensive review, on the soundness of the SAP?”; 3.
