  • Derbyshire Dales Local Plan Settlement Hierarchy
    DERBYSHIRE DALES LOCAL PLAN SETTLEMENT HIERARCHY February 2016 CONTENTS 1 Introduction 2 Policy Context 3 Methodology Scope Economic Attributes Social Attributes 4 Summary Tables and Ranking Appendix A Settlement audits B Table of indicators, scoring methodology and sources of information C Businesses providing employment in assessed settlements D Public transport services in assessed settlements 2 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 The purpose of planning is to help achieve sustainable development. Pursuing sustainable development involves seeking positive improvements in the quality of the built, natural and historic environment and includes a requirement to plan positively to support local development. As such, sustainable development and the creation of sustainable communities lies at the heart of the Government’s National Planning Policy Framework. 1.2 In considering where new development should be located, there is a need to balance the requirements of development against other needs such as sustainability and environmental impacts. Development needs to be accommodated in settlements where the need to travel can be reduced through good access to facilities and services and where it can be accommodated without significant adverse impacts. This paper seeks to assess the relative sustainability of each of the main settlements (excluding the Market Towns) in the Derbyshire Dales (outside the Peak District National Park) and will be used to inform strategy and policy formulation in the Derbyshire Dales Local Plan. From a national perspective, none of the District’s settlements would be regarded as large. However, there are nevertheless significant variations in the land uses and services that are located within them, the relationships between different settlements.

    PLACE-BASED COMMUNITY BROWNFIELD PLANNING FOUNDATION REPORT ON EXISTING CONDITIONS EAST HARLEM, MANHATTAN FINAL SEPTEMBER 2016 BILL deBLASIO MAYOR DANIEL C. WALSH, Ph.D. DIRECTOR Mayor’s Office of Environmental Remediation This document was prepared by the New York City Department of City Planning for the New York City Mayor’s Office of Environmental Remediation and the New York State Department of State with state funds provided through the Brownfield Opportunity Areas Program. CONTENTS PURPOSE 4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 5 PART ONE Geography and Land Use 10 Demographic and Economic Profile 28 Recent Public Initiatives and Private Investments 35 PART TWO Environmental Conditions 41 Potential Strategic Sites 43 KEY FINDINGS AND NEXT STEPS 57 APPENDIX 58 PURPOSE This existing conditions foundation report was commissioned by the New York City Mayor’s Office of Environmental Remediation (OER) to help community members and community-based organizations (CBO’s) conduct place-based planning for revitalization of vacant and underutilized brownfield properties. Place- based planning by community groups is supported by OER under the NYC Place-Based Community Brownfield Planning Program and by the New York State Department of State in the Brownfield Opportunity Area Program. To advance implementation of plans, OER provides financial and technical assistance to CBO’s for cleanup and redevelopment of brownfield properties and seeks to help people foster greater health and well-being in their neighborhoods. Brownfields are vacant or underutilized properties where environmental pollution has deterred investment and redevelopment. Pollution introduces many risks to land development and often causes community and private developers to pass over these properties, especially in low-income neighborhoods where land values may be depressed and insufficient to cover added cleanup costs.
