Preparation of the Local Plan has been undertaken in compliance with Town and Country Planning (Local Development) (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2008. Community consultation has been carried out in accordance with and building upon the council’s Statement of Community Involvement (Adopted 2006). 1.2 As stipulated by regulation 30 (d) this statement will set out: i. those bodies and persons invited by the council to make representations ii. how these bodies and persons were invited to make representations iii. a summary of the main issues raised and iv. how these representations have been taken into account and addressed in the development plan 1.3 The Council will actively seek to involve people at an earlier stage in the plan preparation process than has traditionally occurred. This statement outlines the ways in which the council has carried out consultation in its production of the Local Plan in accordance with the adopted Statement of Community Involvement. 1.4 Extensive consultation has taken place during the production of the Local Plan and this document provides a succinct statement of these activities and details how these have shaped future development and those views raised through consultation have been carried forward in policy. 1.5 Work began on the preparation of the High Peak Local Plan following the termination of joint working arrangements with Derbyshire Dales District Council in April 2012. The two local planning authorities had until that point been working on the production of a Derbyshire Dales and High Peak Joint Core Strategy. However, at that time work to assess the latest evidence on the number of houses needed in Derbyshire Dales and High Peak in the period up to 2026, had shown that there were significant differences in the housing markets in operation across the Peak Sub-Region. Furthermore with the introduction of the Localism Act and the National Planning Policy Framework, the Borough Council was mindful of the tone and content of emerging guidance that referred to ‘Local Plans’ and not Local Development Frameworks or Core Strategy, and as such decided to produce a Local Plan for the area for which it is the local planning authority. 1.6 Although the Derbyshire Dales and High Peak Joint Core Strategy is no longer being prepared, the consultations and other joint evidence studies undertaken as part of the process still form part of the evidence base for the High Peak Local Plan. The table below sets out the key consultations undertaken to date, in respect of the preparation of both the Joint Core Strategy and the High Peak Local Plan. 1.7 This Statement considers each of these stages in the following sections. Each section sets out who was consulted, how they were consulted, the main issues raised in representations received at each stage, and how they have been addressed by the Council in each stage of the Local Plan preparation. This Statement is supported by a comprehensive set of appendices which provide further details of each consultation exercise. A list of organisations consulted at each stage of the process is included in Appendix 1. Consultation Statement 3 Consultation statement 1 Introduction Duty to Cooperate 1.8 Whilst the East Midlands Regional Plan has now been revoked, this decision does not take away the need to address planning issues of cross authority boundary significance. To achieve this, public bodies now have a duty to cooperate on planning issues that cross administrative boundaries. Local Planning Authorities are required to work collaboratively with other bodies to ensure that strategic priorities across local boundaries are properly coordinated and clearly reflected in individual local plans. 1.9 Paragraph 156 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) sets out the strategic issues where co-operation might be appropriate. Paragraph 179 of the NPPF requires councils to work together to address strategic priorities across boundaries and development requirements which cannot be wholly met within their own areas. 1.10 In order to satisfy the duty to co-operate, High Peak Borough Council has involved neighbouring authorities, along with Derbyshire County Council, and will continue to involve neighbouring authorities and other public bodies in order to implement the High Peak Local Plan. Discussions and meetings have been held with relevant public bodies under the duty to cooperate on strategic and cross boundary issues. Detail of these can be found in the Duty to Cooperate Statement which accompanies this plan. 1.11 Under the Duty to Cooperate, an agreement has been made with Cheshire East Council for that authority to accommodate 500 dwellings out of High Peak's objectively assessed need for housing. This is due to development constraints in High Peak. Further details are provided in the Strategic Housing Development section of the Local Plan. The Borough Council will continue to work with other authorities to meet its objectively assessed needs. 4 Consultation Statement Consultation statement 1 Introduction Picture 1 Progress Chart Shaping the Future Preparation of draft document – August – October 2007 Committee approval – 24 October 2007 Public Consultation - 8 November 2007 – 25 July 2008 Joint Core Strategy: Issues and Options 26 March 2009 – 21 May 2009 Joint Core Strategy: Growth Options Workshop with Parish Counciilors – 9 September 2009 Briefing with High Peak Councillors – 16 September 2009 Public Consultation - 27 August 2009 – 1 October 2009 Joint Core Strategy: Draft Plan 3 June 2010 – 15 July 2010 Community Conversations Summer 2011 Local Plan Issues and Options September 2012 Local Plan Preferred Option February 2013 Local Plan Additional Consultation December 2013 Publication of Submission Local Plan April 2014 Consultation Statement 5 Consultation statement 2 Evidence Gathering 2.1 The statement of community involvement, adopted in May 2006, details High Peak Borough Council policy and guidance on public consultation including the councils commitment to community involvement and what can be consulted on. The consultation undertaken as part of the preparation of the Local Development Framework is in compliance with those methods identified in the statement of community involvement and more detailed explanation of these methods can be found in Appendix 1 (page 21) of the statement of community involvement. As highlighted by figure 2 consultation was sought from statutory consultees, relevant and specific agencies and most importantly the local population. 2.2 The style and scope of public consultation has been devised to be appropriate and relevant to the policy decision at issue. Appendix 2 of this statement outlines the consultation method matrix for the Local Development Framework. As this shows, the methods undertaken throughout the consultation have aimed to reach a wide audience, including those hard to reach groups who do not usually engage in the consultation process. 2.3 Large print, Braille and audio versions of all consultation materials were made available to ensure that those who have difficulty communicating in English or require information in different formats could access the consultation material. This meets the terms of the corporate equalities plan to ensure that its services are accessible to all sections of the communities. 6 Consultation Statement Consultation statement 3 Plan preparation and consultation Shaping the Future 3.1 The discussion paper was the first step in the preparation of the (now discontinued) joint Core Strategy. Its purpose was to gather views and opinions from the local population, stakeholders and interested parties about what are the key issues in the High Peak and how they might be addressed and secure input in the early stages. The results of the consultation would be used to inform the Issues and Options stage of the Core Strategy. 3.2 The paper was broken down into the following sections: - Housing Jobs and the economy Transport and access Climate change Regeneration Buildings and landscape 3.3 The emphasis was placed on making the document accessible to a wide a range of people as possible. It was written in plain English and the key issues were detailed in bullet points. The focus was placed on looking at the key topics not on the Local Development Framework process itself. There were a short series of questions on each topic and people were invited to highlight any further issues that they felt were relevant. A full list of consultees is available in the appendix. Who was consulted and how? 3.4 The main elements of the consultation are as follows: Area Forums, Buxton (14 May 2008), Glossopdale (22 May 2008) and Central Area (15 May 2008?) were held with the discussion paper presented. The forums were well attended. People were invited to make comments on key issues which were taken forward by High Peak Borough Council. Reference copies of the document and a summary leaflet was made available in council offices based at Chinley, Glossop and Buxton as well as copies deposited at Glossop, Hadfield, Gamesley, Chapel-en-le-Frith, Whaley Bridge, Buxton and New Mills libraries. Advertisements were placed in local newspapers. Information was given to town and parish councils to enable them to forward information to residents.

  • Land at Market Street, Buxton
    High Peak Borough Council Land at Market Street, Buxton Heritage Impact Study Wood Environment & Infrastructure Solutions UK Limited – September 2018 3 © Wood Environment & Infrastructure Solutions UK Limited Executive summary High Peak Borough Council (hereafter ‘the Council’ proposes to redevelop land at Market Street in Buxton for residential development of up to 40 dwellings (hereafter ‘the proposed development’). The site is located at National Grid Reference (NGR) SK058730 within the historic heart of Buxton, Derbyshire. This report has been produced for the purpose of assessing the potential impact of the proposed development upon heritage assets within the site and the surrounding area. Impacts may occur through disturbance within the site or upon the setting of surrounding assets, changing the way they may be viewed, understood or experienced. Due to the intimate and enclosed character of the Conservation Areas contained within the area surrounding the site there is very limited visibility towards the proposed development form these and their associated individual listed buildings and historic structures. As the site is outside of the designated areas and of a design that is sympathetic to the character of the neighbouring Conservation Areas it will have a negligible effect upon the built heritage of Buxton. There is a potential for as yet unknown archaeological material to be present within the site as identified by the site being contained within the Central Buxton Area of Archaeological Interest and the presence of numerous Historic Environment Records present within the surrounding area. The majority of the site appears to be relatively undisturbed by recent activity with the exception of the current structures that are present and as such if any archaeological remains are present they are likely to have survived in a coherent form.

    The Ultimate Peak District & Derbyshire Bucket List: 101 Great Things To Do 1. Embrace the great outdoors in the UK’s first National Park Established in 1951, the Peak District is the country’s oldest National Park. If you love the outdoors, this protected area of natural beauty - which covers 555 square miles in total - offers over 200 square miles of stunning open access land to explore. 2. Visit the ‘jewel in the Peak District’s crown’ at Chatsworth House Home to the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, Chatsworth is one of the UK’s favourite stately homes. Discover over 30 magnificent rooms, a 105-acre garden, parkland, a farmyard and playground, and one of Britain’s best farm shops. 3. Conquer the tallest ‘Peak’ in the Peak District At 636 metres above sea level, you’ll feel like you’re standing on top of the world when you conquer the Kinder Scout plateau. It’s the highest point in the National Park and was also the site of the 1932 Mass Trespass, a landmark event which sparked a debate about the right to roam in the countryside, leading to the establishment of the Peak District as the first National Park two decades later. 4. Discover the UK’s oldest Ice Age cave art at Creswell Crags Walk in the footsteps of Ice Age hunters, uncover the secrets of early man, discover incredible Ice Age cave art and marvel at the UK’s largest discovery of ritual protection marks at this picturesque limestone gorge on the Derbyshire/Nottinghamshire border. 5.

  • TRUSTEE INFORMATION PACK Welcome
    TRUSTEE INFORMATION PACK Welcome Dear Candidate Thank you for your interest in the role of Trustee. This is a pivotal moment for Buxton Opera House and a really exciting time to join our Board. Buxton Opera House is Derbyshire’s only largescale cultural venue for the performing arts. Its position and contribution to the regional economy are critical to the town’s redevelopment vision, complementing the regeneration of the historic Crescent, which opened this year. The past three years have seen a significant change of direction for the Opera House. We have refreshed our Board and leadership team and have an ambitious strategic plan led by our Chief Executive, Paul Kerryson. Our priority now is to secure the theatre’s future. Going forward, we will launch a £15M capital campaign to refurbish our outdated backstage areas and technical facilities and develop our education and rehearsal space; this follows an Arts Council funded feasibility study conducted by leading architects, Bennetts Associates. The Covid crisis has been devastating for the arts sector and forced the closure of the Opera House in March 2020. We were fortunate to be awarded funding from the Government Cultural Recovery Fund, which enabled us to survive through the months of uncertainty, a period that required exceptionally careful financial oversight from the Board, working in close partnership with the Chief Executive. Our reopening in July 2021 is a very special moment. We are seeking three Trustees who will share our passion for theatre and community to join our already strong Board. In particular we are looking for people with an arts or legal background or who have expertise in education, fundraising, people management, marketing or communications.
