Relevant Development Plan Policies

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Spatial Strategy & Development Principles - Policy DP1 - Sustainable Development Locations

All proposals for development will be assessed against their ability to promote sustainable development. Proposals will be considered favourably in the following locations, provided they are in scale with their location and consistent with other Policies of this Local Plan.

Urban Area City of Carlisle

Key Service Centres Brampton Longtown

Local Service Centres Burgh by Sands Heads Nook Castle Carrock Houghton Cummersdale Irthington Cumwhinton Raughton Head Dalston Rockcliffe Gilsland Scotby Great Corby Smithfield Great Orton Thurstonfield Hallbankgate Warwick Bridge Hayton Wetheral

Proposals for development within these locations will be assessed on the basis of the need for development to be in the location specified. Within the Urban Area proposals for retail, office and leisure developments will be subject to a sequential approach which requires that locations re considered as follows: firstly within the City Centres; secondly edge-of-centre locations; and thirdly the remainder of the urban area. Proposals for residential development will be considered against the need to give priority to the reuse of previously developed land, with particular emphasis on vacant and derelict sites and buildings. Settlement Boundaries have been established on the Proposals Map to recognise the extent of built development or where planning permission already exists to judge proposals for development and are not indicative of land ownership. Outside these locations development will be assessed against the needs to be in the location specified.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Core Development Policies - Policy CP1 - Landscape Character

Proposals for development in the rural area must seek to conserve and enhance the special features and diversity of the different landscape character areas. Development will be considered appropriate to the character of the landscape provided the proposal has regard to and conserves: the landform and natural patterns of drainage;  the pattern of trees and woodland;  the habitats of species of importance for wildlife;  the pattern and composition of field boundaries;  the pattern of historic landscape features;  the pattern and distribution of settlements

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Core Development Policies - Policy CP2 - Biodiversity

Proposals in both the rural and urban area should not harm the integrity of the biodiversity resource as judged by key nature conservation principles, and proposals should seek to conserve and enhance the biodiversity value of the areas which they affect. In areas where species protected under national and European legislation are most likely to occur, special account will be given to their presence in the consideration of development proposals.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Core Development Policies - Policy CP3 - Trees And Hedges On Development Sites

Proposals for new development should provide for the protection and integration of existing trees and hedges. Where trees and hedges are present, a survey will be required showing the following: 1 the location of existing trees and hedges; 2 the species, age, height and crown spread of each tree; 3 an assessment of the condition of each tree; 4 the location and crown spread of trees on adjacent land which may be affected by the development; 5 existing and proposed changes in ground level.

In order to protect and integrate existing trees and hedges within new development, the City Council will resist proposals which cause unacceptable tree loss, and which do not allow for the successful integration of existing trees identified in the tree survey. Layouts will be required to provide adequate spacing between existing trees and buildings, taking into account the existing and future size of the trees, and their impact both above and below ground. The City Council will protect existing trees and woodlands where appropriate, by tree preservation orders, and by the use of planning conditions requiring protective fencing around trees to be retained to prevent site works within their crown spread.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Core Development Policies - Policy CP5 - Design

All new development proposals will be assessed against the following design principles. Proposals should: 1 Respond to the local context and the form of surrounding buildings in relation to height, scale and massing, and by making use of appropriate materials and detailing; 2 Take into consideration any important landscape or topographical features and respect local landscape character; 3 Reinforce local architectural features, where appropriate, promoting and respecting local distinctiveness; 4 Ensure all components of the proposal, such as buildings, car parking, access routes, open space and landscaping, are well related to one another to ensure a well integrated, successful and attractive development; 5 Ensure there is no adverse effect on the residential amenity of existing areas, or adjacent land uses, or result in unacceptable standards for future users and occupiers of the development; 6 Ensure the retention and enhancement of existing trees, shrubs, hedges and other wildlife habitats where possible. Where environmental features are lost as a result of the proposal, appropriate mitigation measures should be put in place and on-site replacement of those features will be sought; 7 Include landscaping schemes (both hard and soft) to assist the integration of new development into existing areas and ensure that development on the edge of settlements is fully integrated into its surroundings; 8 Ensure that the necessary services and infrastructure can be incorporated without causing unacceptable harm to retained features; 9 Ensure that the layout and design incorporates adequate space for waste and recycling bin storage and collection.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Core Development Policies - Policy CP6 - Residential Amenity

The amenity of residential areas will be protected from inappropriate development where that development: 1 is for a use inappropriate for residential areas; and/or 2 is of an unacceptable scale; and/or 3 leads to an unacceptable increase in traffic or noise; and/or 4 is visually intrusive.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Core Development Policies - Policy CP12 - Foul And Surface Water Sewerage And Sewage Treatment

Development will not be permitted where inadequate foul and surface water sewerage infrastructure and sewage treatment capacity exists, or where such provision cannot be made within the time constraint of the planning permission.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Housing - Policy H14 Gypsies And Travellers

Where there is an identified need the City Council will consider the provision of Gypsy and Traveller Sites. Proposals for Gypsy and Traveller sites will be acceptable providing that:

1 the proposal will not compromise the objectives of the designation of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty or Landscape of County Importance; and 2 there would be no adverse impact on the local landscape; and 3 appropriate access and parking can be achieved; and 4 the proposed site is reasonably accessible to community services; and 5 the proposal would not adversely affect the amenities of adjacent occupiers by way of noise, vehicular or other activities on site.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Transport - Policy T1- Parking Guidelines For Development

The level of car parking provision for development will be determined on the basis of the following factors: 1 the Parking Guidelines for Cumbria as updated by additional requirements in PPG 13; 2 the availability of public car parking in the vicinity; 3 the impact of parking provision on the environment of the surrounding area; 4 the likely impact on the surrounding road network; and 5 accessibility by and availability of, other forms of transport.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Housing - Policy H1 - Location Of New Housing Development

New housing development will be located in sustainable locations in accordance with PPS3: Housing, Regional Planning Guidance and the Joint Structure Plan. During the Plan period 80% of new development will be located within the urban area of Carlisle, including allocated sites on the edge of the City referred to in Proposal H16. The remaining 20% will be permitted in the rural area of the District with the focus on the two Key Service Centres of Brampton and Longtown.

In the remainder of the rural area small-scale development will be located in accordance with Policy DP1 and other policies of this Plan to ensure that: 1 the site is well related to the landscape of the area and does not intrude into open countryside; and 2 the scale of the proposed development is well related to the scale, form and character of the existing settlement; and 3 the layout of the site and the design of the buildings is well related to existing property in the village; and 4 the siting and design of the buildings is well related to and does not adversely affect the amenity of neighbouring property; and 5 appropriate access and parking can be achieved; and 6 the proposal will not lead to the loss of amenity open space within or at the edge of the settlement; and 7 the proposal will not lead to the loss of the best and most versatile agricultural land.

Settlement boundaries have been drawn for the following Local Service Centres within which proposals will be judged against the above criteria.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Housing - Policy H2 - Primary Residential Areas

Within the Primary Residential Areas defined on the Inset Maps for Carlisle, Brampton and Longtown, proposals for new residential development will be acceptable provided that: 1 existing areas of open space and other amenity areas are safeguarded; and 2 the proposed development does not adversely affect the amenity of adjacent residential property; and 3 the proposed development complements or enhances existing adjacent residential areas and their amenity; and 4 satisfactory access and appropriate parking arrangements can be achieved.

Proposals for non-residential uses will be permitted in Primary Residential Areas provided that they do not adversely affect residential amenity. Development that would create unacceptable noise, smell, safety and health impacts or excessive traffic generation will not be acceptable. The traffic impact of new development upon existing residents through inconvenience and detrimental effect will be taken into account. Such schemes falling within the scope of this policy will be considered against the above criteria as well as other policies of the Plan appropriate for the proposed use.

Outside the Primary Residential Areas and sites allocated under Proposal H16 for Carlisle, Brampton and Longtown, applications for residential development, including redevelopment and the change of use of vacant and underused buildings, will be only be permitted provided that: 1 satisfactory housing conditions can be achieved; and 2 the proposal will complement the existing character of the area; and 3 the proposal will not adversely affect the amenity of the area; and 4 satisfactory access can be provided; and 5 appropriate parking arrangements can be made.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Housing - Policy H5 - Affordable Housing

The City Council will negotiate with developers for an element of affordable housing to be included in the majority of housing developments. All allocated housing sites and windfall sites of 10 or more dwellings in the urban area will be expected to make a contribution of 30% of units on-site towards affordable housing. Only in exceptional circumstances will the Council consider off-site contributions or a financial contribution in lieu of on-site provision. In the rural area the contribution to affordable housing will be: 1 25% of housing on large sites (over 0.8ha or 25 dwellings) 2 20% of housing on medium sites (over 0.3ha or 10 dwellings) 3 10% of housing on small sites (over 0.1ha or 3 units) The proportion of affordable housing sought will only be varied if this can be justified on a robust, evidence based, assessment of the economic viability of the site. Where intermediate affordable housing is to be provided at a discounted market value a discount of 25-30% will be sought and the discounted sale will be required to be in perpetuity.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Local Environment - Policy LE12 - Proposals Affecting Listed Buildings

Proposals for new development which adversely affects a listed building or its setting will not be permitted. Any new development within the setting of a listed building should preserve the building's character and its setting. The City Council will seek to encourage any new development to be sympathetic in scale, character and materials.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Local Environment - Policy LE19 - Conservation Areas

The City Council will continue to review existing and designate new conservation areas. Development proposals within and adjoining conservation areas will be granted planning permission provided they preserve or enhance their character and appearance. Any new development or alterations to existing buildings should harmonise with their surroundings and be in sympathy with the setting, scale, density and physical characteristics of conservation areas, and protect important views into or out of such areas. Applications for outline planning permission will not be accepted for proposals in conservation areas.

Proposals for new development and/or alterations to buildings in conservation areas will be judged against the following criteria:

1 the development should preserve or enhance all features which contribute positively to the area's character or appearance, in particular the design, massing and height of the building should closely relate to adjacent buildings and should not have an unacceptable impact on the townscape or landscape; 2 the development should not have an unacceptable impact on the historic street patterns and morphology, roofscape, skyline and setting of the conservation area, important open spaces or significant views into, out of and within the area; 3 development proposals should not result in the amalgamation or redrawing of boundaries between traditional buildings and plots, or demolition and redevelopment behind retained facades; 4 wherever practicable traditional local materials such as brick, stone and slate should be used and incongruous materials should be avoided; 5 individual features both on buildings and contributing to their setting, should be retained e.g. doorways, windows, shopfronts, garden walls, railings, cobbled or flagged forecourts, sandstone kerbs, trees and hedges, etc. Where features have deteriorated to the extent to which they have to be replaced, the replacement should match the original; 6 proposals which would generate a significant increase in traffic movements and heavy vehicles or excessive parking demands will not be permitted since these would be prejudicial to amenity; 7 proposals which would require substantial car parking and servicing areas which cannot be provided without an adverse effect on the site and its surroundings will not be permitted.

Urban Area City of Carlisle

Key Service Centres Brampton Longtown

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Economic & Commercial Growth - Policy EC1 - Primary Employment Areas

Within Primary Employment Areas proposals for B1, B2 and B8 uses will be acceptable. Permission will only be given for redevelopment or changes of use within such areas for other purposes where: 1 the existing use of the site adversely affects or could adversely affect adjacent residential properties or the local environment; or 2 the proposed alternative use provides for needed community building or public amenity space; or 3 the proposed alternative use is essential for the redevelopment of the majority of the site for employment purposes; and 4 the alternative development would be appropriate in terms of scale and design to the surrounding area and the amenity of adjacent properties would not be prejudiced.

Proposals for public sales floorspace, as opposed to trade counters, will not be permitted within employment units unless there is clear evidence that the use is an integral but ancillary part of the operation. Planning conditions, including a restriction on the hours of operation, may be used to ensure the use remains ancillary to the prime use of the unit Employment uses have now become established at the former RAF14MU outlying sites at Harker, Heathlands and Rockcliffe. The sites are designated as Primary Employment Areas.

In the Sandysike/Whitesyke areas proposals for the redevelopment and extension to existing industrial and warehousing premises will be acceptable provided: 1 the proposal does not have an adverse impact on the landscape; and 2 the proposal does not involve the loss of existing tree cover; and 3 where appropriate, opportunities are taken to reinforce existing landscaping; and 4 adequate access and appropriate parking are provided.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Local Environment - Policy LE29 - Land Affected By Contamination

The Policy will also apply to proposed development on or within 250 metres of an existing landfill or a site known to be used for landfill within the last 30 years.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Local Environment - Policy LE30 - Derelict Land

Development involving the reclamation of derelict land and buildings will be permitted provided that the land has been remediated to a standard that is fit for the proposed land use. The proposed land use shall also be appropriate to the location, and the development and accompanying landscaping are in keeping with the surroundings. Where the derelict land has reverted to a natural state its quality, and the importance as a green area, will be taken into account in any decision about its future development.

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Core Development Policies - Policy CP5 - Design

Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Core Development Policies - Policy CP9 - Development, Energy Conservation And Efficiency

Development proposals should take into account the need for energy conservation and efficiency in their design, layout and choice of materials. The principles should be introduced in the early stages of the design process in order to consider the orientation of buildings to maximise solar gain coupled with high levels of insulation to reduce heating costs. The efficient and effective use of land, including the reuse of existing buildings and the use of environmentally sustainable materials should also be encouraged. Landscaping schemes also may be used to shelter buildings in exposed positions to reduce heat loss. These elements will contribute to the energy efficiency of a new development. Developers should also consider the possible incorporation of photovoltaic cells, active solar panels and other small-scale sources of renewable energy. Consideration should be given to recycled materials, waste minimisation and recycling measures within the design. Designers will be encouraged to include systems for collecting roof water to enable its re-use.
