The first document is a Core Strategy, prepared around a vision for the future development of the Borough taking us to 2027. 1.2 The Core Strategy sets out a “spatial” strategy identifying the towns and settlements where new housing schemes and land to support new industry and business are required. Provision will also be made for retail, leisure and supporting community facilities. It also sets out the strategic policies to make all this happen, taking into consideration potential environmental impacts and the implications of climate change. A supporting Sites and Policies document will show specific development sites and contain policies to guide the release of land and design of new development. 1.3 The Core Strategy and supporting Sites and Policies document will eventually make up Rotherham's statutory development plan - replacing the current Unitary Development Plan. 1.4 In essence, the Core Strategy will guide what development is needed, how much is required, where it should go, and when it should happen. 1.5 From June to August 2009 we consulted on revised options for the Core Strategy. We now need to know your views on this draft Core Strategy before we submit it to Government for independent examination. The strategic policies contained in this document will help to shape the future development of Rotherham while protecting the environment and heritage assets we value so much. It is vital that we get them right. Your views on this draft Core Strategy are welcomed. 1.6 Further information on the Core Strategy and previous consultation documents can be found on our website at: http://www.rotherham.gov.uk/forwardplanning 1.7 You can contact us at: Phone 01709 823869 Post Forward Planning Planning & Regeneration Service Fax 01709 823865 Environment & Development Services Email [email protected] Bailey House Rawmarsh Road Minicom 01709 823536 Rotherham S60 1TD Context 1.8 The aim of achieving sustainable development sits above all policy guidance and we have undertaken Sustainability Appraisal to ensure that the Core Strategy works towards achieving more sustainable development. 1.9 The Core Strategy is based on the principles of sustainable development set out in national guidance. The Spatial Plan has a very important role in achieving sustainable development. The Government’s current position on sustainable development is set out in ‘Guidance on Sustainability Appraisal Planning advisory Service (PAS), (2007) and the Sustainability Appraisal Advice Note (PAS, Core Strategy Final Draft 5 1 2010). Sustainable development is a key global and local issue. A commonly used definition of sustainable development is set out below: Development that meets the needs of the present without comprising the ability of future generations to be meet their own needs. (Brundtland Commission, 1987) Sustainability Appraisal and Strategic Environmental Assessment 1.10 A key requirement of the planning system is that preparation of the LDF, including the Core Strategy, is guided and informed by Sustainability Appraisal. The requirements of the European Union’s Strategic Environmental Assessment Directive 2001/42/EC are incorporated into the Sustainability Appraisal process. 1.11 As an ongoing process, Sustainability Appraisal (SA) has been used to appraise the potential significant social, environmental and economic effects of the Core Strategy at each stage in its preparation - from initial draft objectives through preferred and revised options to this draft document. The Council has retained external consultants to advise on SA methodology, to carry out independent assessments and to verify other SA work carried out by us and how the Core Strategy can be improved. The way this has been achieved is set out in full in the Integrated Impact Assessment Report accompanying this draft document. A non-technical summary of the Integrated Impact Assessment Report is also available. 1.12 Three assessments have been undertaken to as part of the Integrated Impact Assessment: the Sustainability Appraisal, a Health Impact Assessment (HIA) and an Equalities Impact Assessment (EqIA). SA, HIA and EqIA are a way of making sure that environmental, social (including equality, health and well-being) and socio-economic assets/ issues and opportunities are considered throughout the development of the Rotherham LDF. 1.13 Sustainability Appraisal will form an important part in demonstrating the soundness of the Core Strategy during the independent examination. A final report will also accompany the adoption stage. 1.14 The Sustainability Appraisal methodology itself is described in the LDF Sustainability Appraisal General Scoping Report (Dec 2005) available on our website. This Scoping Report has now been updated (March 2011). Amendments include updates to the Baseline situation and the context review to incorporate new and updated information since 2006. The SA framework has also been refreshed, however the fundamental elements of the original SA Framework have been retained. Previous consultation on the Core Strategy 1.15 The following table details the consultation activity undertaken to date in the preparation of the Core Strategy. 6 Core Strategy Final Draft Table 1 Previous Core Strategy Consultation November 2005 Core Strategy objectives agreed following engagement with stakeholders and interested parties. February 2006 Workshop held to discuss emerging spatial options for the Borough. 15 May to 16 June 2006 Consultation on four spatial options for Rotherham via an online questionnaire.

  • Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) Level 1
    Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) Level 1 June 2008 (Final) Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council Civic Building Walker Place ROTHERHAM Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council STRATEGIC FLOOD RISK ASSESSMENT (SFRA) Level 1 (this page intentionally left blank) June 2008 (Final) Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council STRATEGIC FLOOD RISK ASSESSMENT (SFRA) Level 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction 1. The Borough of Rotherham is situated in South Yorkshire spanning the valleys of the River Don, the River Rother, and the River Dearne. Historically development has concentrated around the river and canal network, providing critical water supplies and transport linkages to support the coal mining and steel industries. Decline in these industries since the 1980s has resulted in a need for economic activity to be restored within the Borough. An overview of the Borough is provided in Figure A. 2. It is important to recognise that some of those areas that are at risk of flooding from rivers within the Borough are under pressure from future development. It is essential therefore that the Council are in a position to take informed decisions, providing a careful balance between the risk of flooding and other unrelated planning constraints that may place pressure upon ‘at risk’ areas. The Rotherham SFRA endeavours to provide specific advice to assist the Council in this regard. 3. This report (and the supporting mapping) represents the Level 1 SFRA1, and should be used by the Council to inform the application of the Sequential Test. Following the application of the Sequential Test, it may be necessary to develop a Level 2 SFRA2 should it be shown that proposed allocations fall within a flood affected area of the Borough.

  • North Eastern Railway Civil Engineering Drawings List
    North Eastern Railway Civil Engineering Drawings List Description: The collection includes a minority of architectural plans, along with drawings of structures such as bridges and viaducts, maps of permanent way routes and alterations, signalling plans and diagrams, with a variety of miscellaneous components for structures and infrastructure. The collection comprises approximately 3500 plans, diagrams and maps on paper, wax linen and linen- backed cartridge paper. System of arrangement: The original arrangement of the drawings has been lost and they derive from a wide variety of applications within the architectural and civil engineering genres. The drawings have therefore been listed in the rolls in which they were found, and every effort made to record the variety of numbering systems used at different times by the railway company departments involved in creating and storing the drawings, representative of the different types of drawing. There is no one single and consistent numbering arrangement. Physical Characteristics: The drawings survive in a variety of formats and sizes – there are wax linen tracings, colour washed linenbacked original office drawings, drawings on cartridge paper, blueprints and other copying processes. Administrative/Biographical History: The North Eastern Railway Company was formed in 1854 as an amalgamation of the York & North Midland Railway, the Leeds Northern Railway and the York, Newcastle & Berwick Railway. It continued to absorb other companies in the north eastern region of England over subsequent decades, including the Stockton & Darlington Railway, South Durham and Lancashire Union Railway and the West Hartlepool Railway. In 1923 the various railway companies of the United Kingdom were grouped into four large amalgamations.
