Crondall Neighbourhood Plan Working Group AECOM Strategic Environmental Assessment of the Non-Technical Summary Crondall Neighbourhood Plan Non-Technical Summary What is Strategic Environmental Assessment? A strategic environmental assessment (SEA) has been undertaken to inform the Crondall Neighbourhood Plan. This process is required by the SEA Regulations. Neighbourhood Plan groups use SEA to assess Neighbourhood Plans against a set of sustainability objectives developed in consultation with interested parties. The purpose of the assessment is to avoid adverse environmental and socio-economic effects through the Neighbourhood Plan, and identify opportunities to improve the environmental quality of the area covered by the Neighbourhood Plan and the quality of life of residents. What is the Crondall Neighburhood Plan? The Crondall Neighbourhood Plan presents a plan for the administrative area of Crondall Parish for the period to 2032. Prepared to be in conformity with the saved policies of the Hart District Local Plan and the emerging Hart Local Plan, it sets out a vision and a range of policies for the Neighbourhood Plan area. These relate to a range of topics, including, but not limited to, landscape and villagescape character, the quality of life of residents, tourism and the protection and enhancement of the environment. In May 2019, Crondall Parish Council approved the Submission Plan for submission to Hart District Council under Regulation 15 of the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations (2012). Purpose of this Environmental Report This Environmental Report, which accompanies the Submission version of the Neighbourhood Plan, is the latest document to be produced as part of the SEA process. The first document was the SEA Scoping Report (June 2018), which includes information about the Neighbourhood Plan area’s environment and community. The second document was the Environmental Report accompanying Regulation 14 consultation on the Neighbourhood Plan. The purpose of this Environmental Report is to: ─ Identify, describe and evaluate the likely significant effects of the Crondall Neighbourhood Plan and alternatives; and ─ Provide an opportunity for consultees to offer views on any aspect of the SEA process which has been carried out to date. The Environmental Report contains: ─ An outline of the contents and main objectives of the Neighbourhood Plan and its relationship with other relevant policies, plans and programmes; ─ Relevant aspects of the current and future state of the environment and key sustainability issues; ─ The SEA Framework of objectives against which the Neighbourhood Plan has been assessed; ─ The appraisal of alternative approaches for
