This application is made following a meeting held with Mrs Downes and Mr Malkin of East Staffordshire Borough Council on 8th February 2012. This is a revised application which seeks to overcome the previous reasons for refusing application P/2011/00823/JPM in December 2011 (see Appendix 1).

The application site comprises the southern half of the site of Hi Range Limited and comprises a 10 metre x 10 metre helipad to the east of the site and to the west of the site a single storey flat roofed building which is used to accommodate the administration connected with the use as a heliport. The southern boundary of the site is defined by an unnamed water course which the submitted Flood Risk Assessment states takes flows from the surrounding land and acts as overflow side weir from the Trent and Mersey Canal. The River Trent is located some 225 metres to the south of the site. The Trent and Mersey Canal is some 100 metres distant on the western side of the A38. To the north the site adjoins the premises of Hi Range Limited that undertakes a range of industrial uses relating to the repair, stripping and dismantling of vehicles and vehicle parts. 1.4 The nearest residential properties to the application site are Lock Cottage approximately 150 metres to the north and Wychnor Bridges Farm, approximately 200 metres to the northeast. The settlement of Wychnor is located to the west of the application site Hi Range Limited, Wychnor Bridges, Mr R W Carr 3 Wychnor, Burton-on-Trent DE13 8BZ Planning Statement and the A38. The dwellings at Wychnor are approximately 350 - 400 metres from the heliport at the closest point. The settlements of Efflinch and Catholme lie to the north of the site with the village of Alrewas at the south of the site. All of these settlements are in excess of 1 kilometre from the heliport. 1.5 The vehicular access to the application site is via the existing vehicular access to Hi Range Limited which is a priority junction off the A38 immediately to the north of the Hi Range premises. The Application Proposals 1.6 Planning permission is sought for the retention of a building and the retention of the use of land in connection with the heliport, helicopter hire and training at Hi Range, Wychnor. Hi Range Limited, Wychnor Bridges, Mr R W Carr 4 Wychnor, Burton-on-Trent DE13 8BZ Planning Statement 2.0 PLANNING POLICY The Development Plan 2.1 The Development Plan includes the Staffordshire and Stoke on Trent Joint Structure Plan 1996 - 2011 and the South Staffordshire District Local Plan. Staffordshire and Stoke on Trent Joint Structure Plan 1996 - 2011 2.2 The Staffordshire and Stoke on Trent Joint Structure Plan 1996 - 2011 was adopted on the 10th May 2001 and was amended in accordance with the ruling of the High Court on the 5th February 2002. 2.3 Structure Plan Policy D1 states that sustainable forms and patterns of new development will be sought which include concentrating as much new development as possible within the fabric of existing urban areas and considering all possibilities for re-use of land and buildings. Structure Plan Policy D2 relates to the design and environmental quality of development and requires that development should generally conserve and, where possible improve, the quality of life and the environment. In this respect the development should "be informed by, or sympathetic to, the character and qualities of its surroundings, in its location, scale and design". Structure Plan Policy D2 also requires development to be "designed to relate to its surrounding context whilst not excluding innovative and creative designs". 2.4 Structure Plan Policy R3 relates to recreational facilities in the countryside and indicates that proposals for the development of Hi Range Limited, Wychnor Bridges, Mr R W Carr 5 Wychnor, Burton-on-Trent DE13 8BZ Planning Statement facilities and the use of land and water resources for sport and recreation in the countryside away from the urban fringe will be permitted provided that they involve activities more suited to sites away from built up areas; they will not have unacceptable adverse impact on the environment, natural and cultural heritage areas with countryside protection, any traffic generated can be accommodated on the road system without undue adverse effect; the form, bulk and general design of the development including any necessary new buildings respect the character and the countryside. 2.5 Structure Plan Policy T19 relates to airfields and heliports and states that proposals for the development of new facilities for private business and recreational flying will be assessed in terms of the impact upon the surrounding environment, landscape and local settlements; the economic and employment advantages, access from the main population and employment centres in the city and county and neighbouring areas; and the existence of suitably located alternative flying facilities. In the explanatory memorandum to the Staffordshire and Stoke on Trent Structure Plan it states (paragraph 8.82) that the County and City Councils acknowledge the demand for small scale business and recreational flying. If demand cannot be met within existing facilities, new development will be considered. Such proposals “will be assessed against economic benefits and environmental considerations, such as aircraft noise, increases in road traffic, visual intrusion, energy use and air pollution”. 2.6 Structure Plan Policy E7 states that the needs of existing industry will be supported “by permitting firms to extend or expand unless unacceptable environmental conditions would result”. Hi Range Limited, Wychnor Bridges, Mr R W Carr 6 Wychnor, Burton-on-Trent DE13 8BZ Planning Statement 2.7 Structure Plan Policy T1A requires the development proposals to be located, sited and designed so that the most convenient, safe and attractive choice of transport mode is progressively (a) avoidance of unnecessary travel; (b) walking and cycling; (c) public transport, with rail preferred to road; and (d) private vehicles. 2.8 Structure Plan Policy NC1 states that the countryside will be safeguarded for its own sake and that non-renewable and natural resources will be afforded protection. New buildings in the open countryside will be strictly controlled. Development which is acceptable with respect to other Structure Plan Policies should respect the character of the countryside and maintain or improve the environment. East Staffordshire Local Plan 2.9 The East Staffordshire Local Plan was adopted in July 2006. Local Plan Policy NE1 relates to development outside of development boundaries and states that planning permission will not be granted for development in such locations unless it cannot reasonably be located within a Development Boundary and is either essential to the efficient working of the rural economy, development otherwise appropriate within the countryside or development close to an existing settlement providing facilities for the general public or local community which are reasonably accessible by bicycle or by public transport. Local Plan Policy BE1 relates to design and indicates that the Council will approve applications for development which respond positively to the context of the area surrounding the site of the application and in themselves exhibit a high quality of design which corresponds to or enhances surrounding development. Hi Range Limited, Wychnor Bridges, Mr R W Carr 7 Wychnor, Burton-on-Trent DE13 8BZ Planning Statement 2.10 Local Plan Policy T1 states that the Borough Council will not permit development where it would unacceptably harm the safety and efficient use of the highways network, or compromise the implementation of the local transport plan area strategies. Local Plan Policy T2 states that planning permission will not be granted for a development which by reason for its traffic generation or otherwise would have a significant adverse effect on the safe and expeditious movement of long distance through traffic on the trunk road network.

  • Depiction of Airfields on Landranger 128, 1974-2018 Lez Watson
    Draft 1.1 Depiction of airfields on Landranger 128, 1974-2018 Lez Watson Airfields, both military and civil, are a feature of many one-inch and 1:50 000 maps of Britain. They have been depicted in varying degrees of detail. Two seminal articles on this were published in 2014 by Ronald Blake1 2. They provided a fascinating introduction to key aspects of ‘charting the aeronautical landscape’. Blake published a paper forty years ago on disused airfields as a planning resource3. He discussed East Midlands including four in Derbyshire on the 1:50 000 sheet 128. His study identified three types of potential – locational, structural and development. He deemed Darley Moor as having little potential, but proposed Ashbourne, Burnaston and Church Broughton as ‘requiring special planning attention’. Indeed, these are the Derbyshire sites that have fulfilled this potential to some degree. Fradley in Staffordshire can be added to this category. Twenty years ago, John Nicolls wrote an introduction to airfields on Ordnance Survey 4 post-war one-inch mapping for Sheetlines . This Figure 1 provided an insight to the variation in aerodrome mapping detail. Around that time, I began to compile a publication history of my local Landranger map, including information about the airfields depicted. Later this listing evolved into a website page5. This study covers thirteen airfields: one pre-war, seven RAF Second World War plus two associated landing grounds6, one army base, and four more airfields established in recent years (fig. 1). It considers whether openings, closures, changes and subsequent 1 Ronald Blake, 2014a. ‘Charting the aeronautical landscape – Part 1: depiction of airfields on Ordnance Survey one-inch maps from the birth of practical aviation to the aftermath of World War 2’, Sheetlines 99, 19.

  • East Midlands Intermodal Park Consultation Plan for the Proposed
    East Midlands Intermodal Park Consultation Plan for the Proposed Strategic Rail Freight Interchange near Derby Draft - April 2014 1. Introduction Background This document outlines Goodman Shepherd’s plans for undertaking stakeholder and community consultation on its plans for a Strategic Rail Freight Interchange (SRFI) near Derby – known as East Midlands Intermodal Park (EMIP). EMIP meets the criteria (set out in Section 14 of the Planning Act 2008) for a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP). Goodman and Shepherd will therefore need to make an application for a Development Consent Order (DCO) to the Planning Inspectorate (PINS) for EMIP, with a final decision on the plans being made by the Secretary of State for Transport. The Planning Act 2008 requires promoters of NSIPs to undertake statutory stakeholder and community consultation before submitting an application for a DCO. Guidance on the pre- application process for NSIPs has been provided by the Department of Communities and Local Government which makes it clear that “…the amount of consultation undertaken, and who is consulted, should be in proportion to the size and scale of the project and where its impacts will be felt” 1. This document covers both the proposed non-statutory consultation and the proposed statutory consultation that the promoters intend to undertake before submission of the DCO. A draft Statement of Community Consultation (SoCC), required as part of the statutory consultation process, is attached as Appendix 1 of the document. The draft Consultation Plan is designed to be an initial discussion paper to enable Goodman and Shepherd to agree its consultation approach for EMIP with South Derbyshire District Council, Derbyshire County Council and the Planning Inspectorate.

  • Analysis of Airprox in UK Airspace: July to December 2006
    Seventeenth Report by the UK Airprox Board: ‘Analysis of Airprox in UK Airspace’ (July 2006 to December 2006) produced jointly for The Chairman, Civil Aviation Authority and the Chief of the Air Staff, Royal Air Force FOREWORD The primary purpose of this, the seventeenth Report from the UK Airprox Board, is to promote air safety awareness and understanding of Airprox. “Book 7” covers the second half of 2006 in detail, containing findings on almost* all of the Airprox which were reported as occurring within UK airspace in that period and which were fully investigated. In addition to the individual Airprox reports, almost all of which have already been published on the UK Airprox Board website - www. airproxboard.org.uk - this Report contains a range of graphs and tables highlighting many of the key statistics from UK Airprox throughout the whole of 2006. As regards the second half of 2006, 8 Airprox were fully investigated having been reported as occurring in UK airspace during that period, this being 22 less than the average of comparable figures in each of the previous five years. Indeed, as Figure 1 (page 6) illustrates, the total number of Airprox in 2006 as a whole was 159 against a ‘prior five year’ average of 198. This reduction in numbers is spread predominantly over three areas: Airprox involving a commercial air transport (CAT) aircraft with either a ‘general aviation’ or a military aircraft and Airprox involving a ‘general aviation’ aircraft and a military aircraft. Details are given later in this Report. With regard to ‘risk bearing Airprox’ (i.e.

  • Ordnance Survey 1:50 000 (Landranger) Sheet 128
    ORDNANCE SURVEY 1:50 000 (LANDRANGER) SHEET 128 - DERBY & BURTON UPON TRENT SHEET HISTORY AIRFIELDS First Series edition A, published March 1974. Six airfields were depicted on the 1:63 360 (One-inch) Seventh Series maps used to compile 1:50 000 sheet 128. They all had Second World War origins, except Burnaston, whose beginnings lay in pre- war civil aviation. The other wartime airfields had ceased to be of military use1 by the time of the publication of First Series edition A, and most by then had developed some civil flying use. The post-war One-inch New Popular Edition sheet 120 was based on revision of 1913-46, and depicted no airfields, in accordance with OS policy at the time. Even Burnaston, home of Derby Airways (later British Midland Airways), which reopened for business in 1946 was not shown. By comparison, the One-inch Seventh Series sheet 120 ‘A’ edition, published in 1953, depicted Fradley (officially RAF Lichfield), Tatenhill , Darley Moor, Ashbourne, and Church Broughton aerodromes with the label “Airfield”, but no details inside the perimeters shown2. Burnaston was shown in detail as “Derby Airport”. The ‘B’ edition of 1962 showed details of runways, other tracks and buildings at the former RAF airfields of Fradley, Tatenhill , Darley Moor, Ashbourne, and Church Broughton, all described as disused except Tatenhill. This site was in use at the time by Allied Breweries to stable their executive aircraft. Darley Moor by then had become a popular venue for motorcycle racing, as it is today. The other airfields were often used by glider clubs and occasionally visited by other light aircraft.
