Purbeck Local Plan Part 1: Planning Purbeck’S Future Foreword – ‘Planning Purbeck’s Future’ This Plan sets out the strategy for the delivery of development and supporting infrastructure in Purbeck for the period 2006-2027, in balance with the exceptional landscape and environmental setting. It is the culmination of seven years’ preparation and engagement with the local community. The Plan will help deliver the aspirations of the community as set out in the Purbeck Community Plan and Town and Parish Plans. This is highlighted by the Council’s own Corporate Strategy objectives: Protecting and enhancing the natural environment Meeting the housing needs of local people Improving the local economy and infrastructure Enhancing local communities and involvement Being an efficient and effective council The Plan includes new policies to improve the delivery of affordable housing, with a target of achieving around 780 new affordable homes for local people that will remain affordable in perpetuity. There is also plenty of opportunity for local businesses to expand and create jobs, and policies that will help protect and improve local services and facilities. Traffic congestion, particularly during the summer is a concern, but environmental designations mean that it is extremely difficult for us to build new roads. Much thought has gone into providing a package of measures paid for by the new development that will improve the choice of travel and reduce the reliance upon the car. We would like to thank the local community for contributing to the preparation of this strategy. It may not satisfy everyone’s wishes, but we feel that this plan represents a pragmatic approach to the balance of development and protection of the environment we value so highly. Development undoubtedly brings pressures and difficulties, but it also presents us with opportunities. The challenge for Purbeck District Council is to manage development so that we can meet the needs of present and future generations.

Part 1 covers the period 2006-2027. The Council and local communities will prepare subsequent plans to cover more specific areas of the District. These will form further parts of the Purbeck Local Plan as follows: South East Dorset Heathlands DPD Prepared jointly with local authorities in South East Dorset, the plan will provide strategic mitigation measures to implement housing growth up to 2027 that will ensure that there is no adverse effect upon the integrity of European protected sites1. Dorset Gypsy and Traveller Site Allocations Plan Prepared jointly with local authorities in Dorset, the plan will provide a 5, 10 and 15-year supply of gypsy and traveller sites and policies to determine planning applications. Swanage Local Plan Prepared jointly with Swanage Town Council and Swanage Community Partnership, the plan will allocate 200 dwellings on the edge of Swanage and provide new retail growth in the town centre. Purbeck Site Allocations Plan The plan will review designations rolled forward in Part 1 of the Local Plan such as settlement boundaries, town centre boundaries, open spaces and safeguarded employment land. Partial Review The Partial Review will further investigate ways of meeting affordable housing needs in Purbeck (further detail in section 1.2 below). Neighbourhood Plans Prepared by local communities to directly influence new development in their community (further detail in section 1.4 below). The hierarchy of plans is shown diagrammatically below: 1 A term used throughout the Local Plan to simplify the document. It refers to nature conservation sites which are subject to the requirements set out in the Habitats Regulations 2012, e.g. SPA and SAC sites and, as a matter of government policy, Ramsar sites (NPPF para 118) Purbeck Local Plan Part 1: Planning Purbeck’s Future Page 1 1.1.2 The Purbeck Local Plan has to conform to national policy and to prepare a truly ‘spatial’ planning document, the Purbeck Local Plan should take forward the aspirations of the Purbeck Community Plan (June 2009) and other plans and strategies within Purbeck including Town and Parish Plans.

Core Strategy Preferred Options document This document will be made available in other languages, in large print or in the form of a radio transcription on request. Please telephone 01929 557339 if you need assistance with this document. Core Strategy Preferred Options document Foreword The Core Strategy will set out a vision for how Purbeck can create sustainable communities over the next 15-20 years. Its purpose is to proactively manage development and associated activities to make Purbeck a better place. It should identify the key assets of Purbeck which need protection, and take account of the aspiration of Purbeck’s residents so that development can better address their needs. It is important to recognise that new development, (whether new houses, employment uses, shops or other community facilities) will be an essential part of the equation. Undoubtedly development brings pressures and difficulties, but it can also help deliver our housing needs, help create a stronger economy, improve accessibility to shops and services, communication and health. The challenge for planning is to manage development and associated activities so that what is built meets the needs of present and future generations. Purbeck District Council is responsible for only a small amount of the activities that happen within the District, with other organisations in the public, private, and voluntary sectors providing many services.
