Welcome

The Council is currently preparing a new Local Plan which will guide future development in the borough up to 2036.

We consulted in 2017 on the first stage of the new Local Plan’s preparation: the Issues and Options stage.

This is an opportunity for you to have a say during the second stage in the new Local Plan’s preparation: the Draft Local Plan.

We hope that by attending this exhibition, and talking to the Council officers here, this will help you to: • learn more about the Draft Local Plan for the borough • know where on the website to look for further information tunbridgewells.gov.uk/localplan • make comments on the Draft Local Plan 2 This exhibition presents the main elements of the Draft Local Plan

It highlights, in turn: The supporting documents fall under the following broad themes:

How many new Are there other homes are needed? development needs? Government projections estimate that While this level of growth is far higher than New population generates a need the number of households in the borough existing plans provide for, the Government for other development, such as is expected to increase by nearly 10,000 has made clear its expectation that councils employment space, community households over the plan period, up to achieve a ‘significant boost’ in the supply and leisure facilities, schools and 2036. This mainly reflects demographic of homes to meet identified needs. other new infrastructure. changes, with people living longer and the trend of smaller household sizes. With In addition, the Council is obliged to Work undertaken as part of the further homes needed to help improve local consider whether there are opportunities evidence base has indicated that a affordability, Government’s figures identify to help meet any needs that cannot be minimum of 14 hectares (35 acres) a housing need for the borough of 13,560 met in neighbouring Council areas. of additional employment land is dwellings over the period 2016-2036. required to support the growing workforce and strengthen the economic base of the borough.

Environmental designations As well as aiming to meet development needs, national planning policy also attaches importance to environmental designations, including Green Belts and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONBs). The map below indicates the extent of the Green Belt (which extends round Royal Tunbridge Wells and up to the western edge of Paddock Wood) and the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Together these designations cover 75% of the Borough. The map also shows the key areas which are subject to flooding, the main transport routes, and the main settlements. There are also other important designations, including for biodiversity (such as SSSIs, Local Wildlife Sites and Ancient Woodland) and heritage (such as Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas). The Development Strategy considers all these designations, which help define local character. 5 Evolution of the Development Strategy The Draft Local Plan proposes to meet development needs as much as possible within the context of the various constraints in the borough, including the Green Belt, Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and areas of flooding. The assessment of potential sources of land supply is summarised below.

Urban brownfield and undesignated land In order to maximise the use of urban land, the strategy provides support for the development of brownfield sites in and around settlements. Previously identified sites have been looked at again to see if more development can be accommodated, whilst still ensuring that the local environment will be protected.

In addition, recognising that small sites continue to come forward on a regular basis, the strategy makes allowance for small unidentified ‘windfall’ sites (50 dwellings per year from 2022 – 2036), many of which will be on brownfield land.

As the map on the previous board shows, only a fairly narrow belt of land along the northern edge of the borough lies outside of the national environmental designations, extending from Paddock Wood in the west to around Frittenden in the east, and including Horsmonden.

However, it is clear from an assessment of sites put forward by landowners and developers to successive “calls for sites” that the combined capacity of suitable sites within existing urban areas, sites outside of the Green Belt, as well as small sites in the AONB, is small relative to the housing need. 6 Evolution of the Development Strategy

New and expanded settlements Green Belt and High Weald Given the large housing need and the fact that Area of Outstanding feedback from earlier consultation on an ‘Issues Natural Beauty (AONB) and Options’ document gave “in principle” support for a new settlement, options for Detailed examination of the potential for potential locations have also been evaluated. other Green Belt releases and some larger developments in the AONB has A new or expanded settlement within the been undertaken. AONB was discounted, as being of too large a scale to be justifiable in the context of policies Following assessment of the contribution to conserve its landscape and scenic beauty. of land to Green Belt objectives, a relatively small proportion - about 5.3% A new/expanded settlement in either the – is being released for development, with eastern, Frittenden area or the central/ about 83% of this being through the two northern, Horsmonden area was ruled out new/expanded settlements. The balance for a combination of highway suitability, includes seven sites being proposed for access to jobs and higher order services, and housing and two sites for employment use. very rural character, as well as piecemeal land ownership (with no large sites submitted) in the case of Frittenden.

A number of sites around Paddock Wood, extending into Capel Parish were submitted which, collectively, would amount to a substantial expansion. It was recognised that there is merit in taking a comprehensive, integrated approach to growth in order to effectively address transport, flood risk and other infrastructure provision, as well as to help provide an economic stimulus.

Although within the Green Belt, land at Tudeley is outside the AONB and relatively well related to nearby Tonbridge, Paddock Wood and Royal Tunbridge Wells/ Southborough. Also, it is deliverable, being essentially in a single ownership.

These two proposals to be delivered through An assessment of the capacity for larger a masterplanned approach, applying garden developments in towns and villages settlement principles, are elaborated upon within the AONB found some scope for on the Capel and Paddock Wood boards. residential and employment development spread across a number of settlements. 7 The Development Strategy The proposed development strategy that has resulted from the analysis is presented in the Draft Local Plan on the ‘Key Diagram’ – see adjoining board.

Sustainable development is the key goal of the planning system and is defined as: ‘Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs’ (World Commission on Environment and Development, 1987)

To ensure that the Draft Local Plan contributes to sustainable development, a Sustainability Appraisal has been undertaken.

It assesses the strategy, site allocations and policies in the Plan – and reasonable alternatives to them - against nineteen sustainability objectives that reflect social, economic, and environmental issues.

The findings of the Sustainability Appraisal have informed the choices made about the pattern of future development, as well as the scope and nature of themed policies.

It is inevitable that many proposals will have a mixture of potentially positive and negative effects. Where potentially negative effects are highlighted, measures to mitigate these are incorporated into policies, wherever practicable.

The Sustainability Appraisal, which includes a Non-Technical Summary, is available to view at: www.tunbridgewells.gov.uk/localplan

The Sustainability Appraisal is published for consultation alongside the Draft Local Plan. Details of how to comment are on the last exhibition board and on the website, as above.

Liaison with infrastructure providers Throughout the preparation of the Draft Local Plan the Council has been liaising with infrastructure providers to identify what infrastructure will be required, and when.

Key infrastructure schemes and requirements are identified in the Infrastructure Delivery Plan.

Key Elements of infrastructure include:

●● Two new secondary schools (between Tonbridge and Tudeley, and at Spratsbrook, south of Royal Tunbridge Wells);

●● A new road to run parallel to the A228 (the Colts Hill bypass)

●● Flood mitigation measures, particularly at Capel and Paddock Wood Colts Hill bypass Policy Themes The Local Plan contains a range of new or updated policies to address particular issues associated with certain aspects or types of development. These are grouped under five themes, as below.
