Braintree District Council Open Spaces Action Plan 2019

www.braintree.gov.uk Introduction

The Open Spaces Action Plan sets out a list of outline proposals for the provision and enhancement of open spaces in Braintree District. Its purpose is to demonstrate the need for the provision and enhancement of open spaces and to enable Council o cers to demonstrate where nancial contributions being sought from developers under the Open Spaces Supplementary Planning Document will be spent.

The proposals are set out in a table which includes schemes identied for Council-owned open spaces, schemes identied by town and parish councils and other proposed open space enhancements for which as yet there are no outline details.

The Action Plan will be under continuous review and brought back to Members for endorsement annually. The proposals shown are eectively work in hand, requiring a detailed programme of works to be drawn up and, in some cases, master planning and public consultation.

It will inform the work programme of Landscape Services, Parks & Open Spaces and Planning Policy. Because the proposals are reliant on the availability of nancial contributions, from grants and public sector resources in addition to Section 106 money, the timing of works will be dictated by the date at which su cient nancial resources are available.

Members are asked to support the programme of enhancements and provision as the basis for negotiating open space planning obligations.

The document is updated annually, producing a new adopted version each year, usually in January.

Explanation of Column Headings

One of the aims we set out to achieve was to make the new Open Spaces Action Plan simple and easy to read. To do this we have set out columns with appropriate title headings to make it easier to nd information. These columns are as follows:

• Ward – This shows what ward particular sites are in • Parish – This shows what parish particular sites are in • GSS Decits – This shows any decits in the area as listed in the Green Spaces Strategy (GSS) • Location – This shows the name of the site, where it is and commonly has a GSS number (Shown in brackets) • Improvements (to existing facilities) – Improvements needed to existing facilities e.g. bins, seating. • Improvements (new facilities) – Improvements needed that are stand-alone facilities that don’t currently exist e.g. changing facilities, play areas, land purchases etc. • Record – (Of public input) This column is for any input the public have put in e.g. a poll. • Source – Where the information has come from e.g. Par ish Council • Ownership – Who currently owns the land e.g. BDC Ownership • Map ref – This column shows what map you can refer to, so you can nd the location e.g. Green Spaces Strategy [Please Note – the ‘old’ Ward / Local Committee Areas noted in the GreenSpaces Strategy 2008, are used in this document in relation to open space typologies and defecits, because they cannot be related to the ward boundaries relevant as of May 2015. These areas are noted in parenthesis, and will be updated once the Green Spaces Strategy is replaced and the references within are to current ward boundaries]
