Dear Kerry,

CHESHIRE EAST HOUSING MONITORING UPDATE CHESHIRE EAST LOCAL PLAN STRATEGY STRATEGIC ALLOCATIONS

I am writing to Pegasus as planning consultants involved in the planning and provision of new homes in Cheshire East. The Council is currently preparing the annual housing monitoring update (HMU) which will have a base date of the 31 March 2018. The assessment will contain updated evidence on completions and commitments and will forecast future delivery on committed and strategic sites. This work is used to guide housing and planning policy and provide information relating to the five year supply of housing sites within the Borough.

We recently held a Housing Stakeholder Event on the 18th April 2018 at Macclesfield Town Hall to discuss the annual Housing Monitoring Update. Views were sought from those involved in the planning, provision or building of new homes in the Borough on the factors affecting lead in times, and build rates, as well as the other site constraints and issues affecting progress. Feedback received from participants included the need to engage with those with an interest in site delivery to obtain site specific evidence on progress when forecasting build rates and lead in times. We would therefore be grateful for your assistance in providing information on the following site allocated in the Cheshire East Local Plan Strategy:

 LPS37: PARKGATE EXTENSION

LPS37 is allocated for around 200 dwellings. Outline planning permission has been granted for 200 units (13/2935M) and a Reserved Matters application has recently been submitted for 235 units (18/2104M) and this application is currently pending determination. Tatton Estates are the applicants and Pegasus are the instructed agents.

The Council’s most recent Housing Monitoring Update has a base date of the 31 March 2017 and this currently forecasts that 40 units will be completed on the site between 1.4.19-31.3.20 and thereafter a build rate of 40 units per year is anticipated. OFFICIAL

Page 3

An extract from the current HMU for this strategic allocation is provided at Appendix 1.

For this site, we would be grateful to receive your comments on:

1. Site progress. Can you advise on the likely timescale for the determination of the current reserved matters application and the likely lead in time for first completions on the site? Are there any issues affecting progress?

2. Is there any housebuilder interest in the site and how many outlets are anticipated?

3. What build rates are likely to be achieved on this site? Are the forecasted build rates in the HMU outlined likely to happen? Please advise if accelerated lead in/ build rates or any slippage is likely to occur. If any delay/ slippage is expected, what are the reasons for this?

4. Are the completion timescales for the overall site(s) realistic? If not please explain why.

5. Are there any other factors that may influence lead in times or build rates for this site?

Please note that it is a statutory function for Local Authorities to produce annual monitoring reports. The Council will use the information received to inform the Housing Land Monitoring Update (March 2018) and/or housing land supply statements. Any information you provide in relation to a site may be published in the public domain. Any personal information you supply will remain strictly confidential. We comply with all laws concerning the protection of personal information, including the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) and Data Protection Act 1998. For further information please read our Privacy Notice and Information Asset Register.

I would be grateful to receive a response by no later than the 29 June 2018.

If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Hi Claire,

Thank you for the attached and your email below. As we have yet to receive a Reserved Matters permission which is still being determined, we anticipate that the earliest start date to deliver housing on site would be early 2020. Our Reserved Matters application is seeking consent for 235 dwellings ( 18/2104M ), therefore higher than the figure anticipated in your projections (200).

Many thanks and kind regards,

19.Any phase of development hereby permitted shall not be commenced until such times as a scheme for the provision and implementation of a surface water regulation system for that phase of development has been submitted to, and approved in writing by, the Local Planning Authority. Prior to the submission of those details, an assessment shall be carried out into the potential for disposing of surface water by means of Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) and the results of the assessment provided to the Local Planning Authority. This should demonstrate that surface water discharge rates and volumes do not exceed pre development levels (5.6 l/s/ha as given in the Integra FRA July 2013) and that attenuation is provided to cater for the 1 in 100 yr event climate change.

Reason: To prevent flooding by ensuring the satisfactory storage of and disposal of surface water from the site.

20.This site must be drained on a separate system, with only foul drainage connected into the foul sewer. Surface water should discharge to a watercourse and may require the consent of the riparian owner. For the avoidance of doubt, no surface water from this development should be allowed to discharge to the public sewer network either through direct or indirect means.

Reason: To ensure a safe form of development that poses no unacceptable risk of pollution to the water environment and in accordance with Macclesfield Borough Local Plan policy DC17.

Reason: To reduce the risk of flooding to the proposed development and future occupants.

22.A phase of development hereby permitted shall not be commenced until such time as a scheme has been submitted to and approved by

Page 18 the Local Planning Authority that ensures that finished floor levels are set no lower than 600 mm above the 100 year climate change flood level for that phase of development. Development shall be accord with the approved scheme.

Reason: To reduce flood risk to the proposed development and future users.

23.No development shall take place until a scheme for the provision and management of off-site compensatory habitat creation has been submitted to and agreed in writing by the local planning authority. The scheme shall have reference to the Ecological Assessment Report (Ref: 1779/R05) and the Illustrative Landscape Masterplan (Ref: 1779/P11d) hereby approved. Thereafter each development phase shall be implemented in accordance with the approved scheme.

Reason: To enhance and protect the off-site ecological value and compensate for habitats lost to the approved development.

24.No development shall take place until a scheme for the provision and management of on-site habitat creation has been submitted to and agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The scheme shall have reference to the Ecological Assessment Report (Ref: 1779/R05) and the Illustrative Landscape Masterplan (Ref: 1779/P11d) hereby approved and shall include the buffer zones associated with the adjoining watercourse and the Local Wildlife Site. Thereafter each development phase shall be implemented in accordance with the approved scheme.

Reason: To enhance and protect on-site ecological value and compensate for habitats lost to the approved development.

25.As part of the finalised layout for each phase of the development including Open Space, the plot detail for that phase of the development should concur with the requirements of BS5837:2012 Trees in Relation to Construction and the Councils Trees and Development Guidelines. A detailed Arboricultural Implication Study will be required as part of any future reserved matters planning application(s). Adequate space should be made available to retain existing mature trees, whilst allowing early mature specimens to reach maturity. Suitable space should also be established to retain and promote existing hedgerows in the form of green corridors.

Reason: To ensure the continued well-being of the trees in the interests of the amenity of the area and in accordance with policy DC9 of the Macclesfield Borough Local Plan 2004.

26.No occupation of any phase of the development shall take place until a verification report for that phase of development demonstrating completion of works set out in the approved remediation strategy and

Page 19 the effectiveness of the remediation has been submitted to and approved, in writing, by the local planning authority. The report shall include results of sampling and monitoring carried out in accordance with the approved verification plan to demonstrate that the site remediation criteria have been met. It shall also include any plan (a "long-term monitoring and maintenance plan") for longer-term monitoring of pollutant linkages, maintenance and arrangements for contingency action, as identified in the verification plan. The long-term monitoring and maintenance plan shall be implemented as approved.

Reason: To prevent the pollution of controlled waters from potential contamination on site.

27.If during development of a phase, contamination not previously identified is found to be present at the site then no further development of that phase (unless otherwise agreed in writing with the local planning authority) shall be carried out until the developer has submitted a remediation strategy to the local planning authority detailing how this unsuspected contamination shall be dealt with and obtained written approval from the local planning authority. The remediation strategy shall be implemented as approved.

Reason: To prevent the pollution of controlled waters from potential contamination on site.

28.No phase of the development approved by this planning permission, shall take place (unless another date or stage in development has been submitted to and agreed in writing with the Local Planning Authority), until a scheme for that phase of the development that includes the following components to deal with the risks associated with contamination of the site has been submitted to and approved, in writing, by the local planning authority: 1) A preliminary risk assessment which has identified: all previous uses potential contaminants associated with those uses a conceptual model of the site indicating sources, pathways and receptors potentially unacceptable risks arising from contamination at the site.

2) A site investigation scheme, based on (1) to provide information for a detailed assessment of the risk to all receptors that may be affected, including those off site.

3) The results of the site investigation and detailed risk assessment referred to in (2) and, based on these, an options appraisal and remediation strategy giving full details of the remediation measures required and how they are to be undertaken.

4) A verification plan providing details of the data that will be collected in order to demonstrate that the works set out in the remediation strategy in (3) are complete and identifying any requirements for

Page 20 longer-term monitoring of pollutant linkages, maintenance and arrangements for contingency action.

Any changes to these components require the express written consent of the local planning authority. The scheme shall be implemented as approved.

Reason: To prevent the pollution of controlled waters from potential contamination on site.

Page 24 INFORMATIVE

The Local Planning Authority (LPA), in reaching this decision, has followed the guidance in paragraphs 186 and 187 of the National Planning Policy Framework. The Framework advises that the LPA should work proactively with applicants to secure developments that improve the economic, social and environmental conditions of the area.

Under the terms of the Water Resources Act 1991 and the Land Drainage Byelaws, our prior written consent is required for any proposed works or structures in, under, over or within 8 meters of the top of the bank of a main river.

The applicants attention is drawn to the contents of the letters from the Environment Agency dated 9th August 2013 and United Utilities dated 3rd December 2013.

Cranes, whilst they are temporary, can be a hazard to air safety. Should any cranes or tall construction equipment be required during the construction process, a separate assessment of crane operations shall be required. The developer or crane operator must therefore notify Manchester Airport Airfield Operations at least one month in advance of intending to erect a crane or tall construction equipment to determine whether there are any regulatory procedures or operating restrictions that need to be agreed before work commences, and whether a Tall Equipment Permit would need to be obtained in advance. This is to ensure compliance with the British Standard Institute Code of Practice for the safe use of cranes, BS7121 – 1:2006 and to ensure that Manchester Airport’s Obstacle Limitation Surfaces are protected to avoid endangering the safe operation of aircraft.

The applicant is advised that they have a duty to adhere to the regulations of Part IIA of the Environmental Protection Act 1990, the National Planning Policy Framework 2012 and the current Building Control Regulations with regards to contaminated land. If any unforeseen contamination is encountered during the development, the Local Planning Authority (LPA) should be informed immediately. Any investigation / remedial / protective works carried out in relation to this application shall be carried out to agreed timescales and approved by the LPA in writing. The responsibility to ensure the safe development of land affected by contamination rests primarily with the developer.

Please Note: This decision notice does not convey any approval or consent which may be required under any enactment, bye-laws, order or regulation other than Section 57 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.

Page 25 This consent is granted subject to conditions and it is the owner(s) and the person(s) responsible for the implementation of the development who will be fully responsible for their compliance throughout the development and beyond. A fee is payable to us for the discharge of conditions. Please see our Website for details. If there is a condition that requires work to be carried out or details to be approved prior to the commencement of the development this is called a "condition precedent". The following should be noted with regards to conditions precedent: (a) If a condition precedent is not complied with, the whole of the development will be unauthorised and you may be liable to enforcement action. (b) Where a condition precedent is breached and the development is unauthorised, the only way to rectify the development is the submission of a new application.

Other conditions on this permission must also be complied with. Failure to comply with any condition may render the owner(s) and the person(s) responsible for the implementation of the development liable to enforcement action.

This permission is granted in strict accordance with the approved plans. It should be noted however that: (a) Any variation from the approved plans following commencement of the development, irrespective of the degree of variation, will constitute unauthorised development and may be liable to enforcement action. (b) Variation to the approved plans will require the submission of a new planning application.

Dear John,

CHESHIRE EAST HOUSING MONITORING UPDATE CHESHIRE EAST LOCAL PLAN STRATEGY STRATEGIC ALLOCATIONS

I am writing to Emery Planning Partnership as planning consultants involved in the planning and provision of new homes in Cheshire East. The Council is currently preparing the annual housing monitoring update (HMU) which will have a base date of the 31 March 2018. The assessment will contain updated evidence on completions and commitments and will forecast future delivery on committed and strategic sites. This work is used to guide housing and planning policy and provide information relating to the five year supply of housing sites within the Borough.

 LPS38: LAND SOUTH OF LONGRIDGE

LPS38 is allocated for around 225 dwellings. I understand that Emery Planning Partnership are instructed to represent Dewscope Ltd with regards to this site.

The Council’s most recent Housing Monitoring Update has a base date of the 31 March 2017 and this currently forecasts that 15 units will be completed on this site during the period 1.4.2019- 31.3.2020 and thereafter a build rate of 30 units per year is forecasted until the completion of the site.

OFFICIAL

Page 30

An extract from the current HMU for this strategic allocation is provided at Appendix 1.

For this site, we would be grateful to receive your comments on:

1. Site progress. Can you advise on the likely timescale for the submission of a planning application for the site and the likely lead in time for first completions? Are there any issues affecting progress?

2. Is there any housebuilder interest in the site and how many outlets are anticipated?

3. What annual build rates are anticipated for this site? Are the forecasted build rates outlined likely to happen? Please advise if accelerated lead in/ build rates or any slippage is likely to occur. If any delay/ slippage is expected, what are the reasons for this?

4. Are the completion timescales for the overall site(s) realistic? If not please explain why.

5. Are there any other factors that may influence lead in times or build rates for this site?

I would be grateful to receive a response by no later than the 29 June 2018.

If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.

From: John Coxon Sent: 23-Jul-2018 11:04 To: COOMBS, Claire Subject: RE: [OFFICIAL] RE: Brownfield Land Register: Site Submissions

Claire

Thanks for your e-mail last week and apologies for the delay in responding. If we simply resend the SHLAA submissions for eligible sites and confirm that we wish the sites to be considered for the brownfield register, will this suffice?

In terms of the sites referred to in the HMU, we can update as follows: - LPS34 (Sagars Road, Handforth) – The planning application was submitted the day after the adoption of the LPS. However the S106 has significantly delayed progress despite persistent chasing by the applicant. We are hoping that the S106 will finally be completed by the end of this week, and we have agreed an extension of deadline with the case officer (Kevin Foster) to that effect. We understand that the site has been marketed and we understand that a deal has been agreed for HIMOR to sell of the site to a developer upon the granting of the outline consent, although until the deal is completed the details are confidential. The developer will then prepare and submit a reserved matters application. We are not involved in that at present. - LPS38 (Longridge, Knutsford) – The submission of the outline planning application has been delayed by the Council’s legal process in terms of disposing the land required to facilitate access. A further consultation by the Council has recently commenced. Once the Council has resolved its position (and assuming that an agreement to dispose of the access land is formally reached) we will undertake public consultation prior to finalising and submitting an outline application. Once outline consent is achieved the site will be marketed and sold to a developer.

John

Portfolio Holder: Cllr Arnold - Portfolio Holder for Planning, Housing and Regeneration

Senior Officer: Frank Jordan – Executive Director- Place

1. Report Summary

1.1 On the 10 October 2017, Cabinet considered a report exploring the potential for enabling access to a development site at Longridge, Knutsford known as LPS 38 in the Local Plan. The report set out options and issues in respect of a thin strip of land subject to a covenant (referred to as the Green Land) and the disposal of a strip of land to enable access across other land (referred to as the Blue Land). These lands are shown edged green and blue respectively on the attached plan at Appendix 1. LPS 38 is shown pecked in black and the strip of land crossing the Blue Land is indicated by a blue dashed line on the same plan.

1.2 The detail of the Cabinet decision from 10 October 2017 is set out in Appendix 2. The decision was qualified in terms of the requirements of the provisions of s123 of the Local Government Act 1972 regarding open space land.

1.3 The intention to dispose of part of the land delineated in blue and the land delineated green was advertised in the local press pursuant to s123 of the Local Government Act 1972. A summary of the representations received as part of this process is provided in appendix 3.

1.4 Appendix 8 provides a report which sets out the further work undertaken in relation to the covenant affecting the Green Land (as directed by Cabinet).

1.5 Further comments made by the public and provided to the Council during the period that the initial report was publicised are captured in this updated report so they can be presented to the decision maker.

OFFICIAL Page 34

1.6 If so determined, the land that would be disposed of would be the Green Land and part of the Blue Land shown on the plan in Appendix 1. The area of the Blue Land that is proposed to be disposed of is described indicatively on the attached plan as a blue dashed line and is indicatively circa 4% of the Blue Land. It is to be noted that the precise area of this land will be determined by the planning process. This allows the minimum area of the Blue Land to be taken to enable access.

1.7 If the disposal of the subject land is so determined and the development of LPS 38 is delivered, the following benefits (subject to planning) could be achieved:-

 Circa 225 homes allocated under the Local Plan,  Provision of significant public open space  Development of a sustainable and accessible residential site in Knutsford  Opportunity for the developer to design a scheme that enhances the overall provision and quality of public open space in the locality,  Replacement of the public open space land lost to enable access to LPS 38 within the development site  Delivery of a capital receipt

1.8 The purpose of this report is to provide all the relevant information, including the representations made in response to the intention to dispose of the stated land and those made during the publication of the draft report for the purposes of the Council’s compliance with its obligation to give consideration to such objections. On behalf of the Council the Portfolio Holder for Planning, Housing and Regeneration is requested to give due consideration to such representations and objections and then in consequence to determine whether or not to proceed with the disposition of all or any parts of the Green and or of the Blue land in accordance with the qualified resolution made by Cabinet.

2. Recommendations

2.1 It is recommended that the Portfolio Holder gives due consideration to the objections and representations received as a result of the statutory process of advertising the Council’s intention to dispose of the land identified in the statutory notices (or any part or parts of that land) and to determine if the Council is to proceed with the proposed disposal of the said land or not;

2.2 The Portfolio Holder is also asked to consider the further work undertaken with regard to the viability of allowing access to LPS 38 over the Green Land and to consider the further representations made during the publication period of this report.

OFFICIAL Page 35 3. Reasons for Recommendations

3.1 Members of the public have been given the opportunity to respond to the advertised proposal to dispose of the public open space Blue and Green Land. All responses are attached at Appendix 3. All personal information and any information by which any person making an objection could be identified have been redacted. All objections and representations received are attached for consideration by the decision maker.

3.2 A majority of respondents (circa 85%) indicated that they had no objection to the disposal of the Green Land (subject to any covenants or restrictions on the land being discharged by agreement with any relevant parties and or beneficiaries). The unusual long thin shape of the Green Land is such that it does not afford significant practical and commonly recognised recreational use as a public open space, although the land is crossed by permissive paths and a public footpath.

3.3 The disposal of the Green Land provides an opportunity to remove a barrier between the proposed development and the Longridge Estate. Including this land in the proposed disposal would enable the opportunities that could be created by this to be explored at the planning stage and incorporated in the development of LPS38.

3.4 The area of the Blue Land (which is indicatively shown as a blue dashed line) that would be lost as a consequence of the proposed disposal is anticipated to be circa 4% of the Blue Land, but this is subject to planning requirements. As part of the planning process this land would be replaced within the scheme such that, overall, the area of public open space would not be diminished. The proposal would also allow the remainder of the Blue Land to continue in its present use, potentially subject to service easements, which is not uncommon on open space and would not affect residents’ ability to enjoy the remaining land as public open space once completed.

3.5 The proposed scheme for the development of LPS 38 would, if implemented, allow the site to be brought forward for residential use. This would support the Local Plan Strategy (LPS) requirement to deliver controlled housing growth within the Borough.

3.6 Clause 4 iii of Policy SE6 (Green Infrastructure) of the LPS requires new developments to provide adequate open space. It also requires development to contribute to the provision of outdoor sports facilities in line with Policy SC1 and SC2. New developments should meet the development plan policy requirements for public open space.

3.7 It is anticipated that, as part of the development of this site, in the region of 20 acres of new public open space would be secured. This would significantly enhance the overall local provision of public open space for the benefit of all residents of Knutsford. In addition, Local Plan policy protects existing open space and playing fields. Only in circumstances where the land in question is

OFFICIAL Page 36 surplus to need, or equivalent/improved provision is made, would a loss of open space not give rise to a conflict with development plan policy and planning policy. There would be a need to fully address this through the planning process.

4. Other Options To Consider

4.1 Decide not to dispose of the public open space land. If the disposal is not so determined then the benefits outlined with paragraph 1.7 of this report will not be achieved. It is likely that the Council would have to consider fresh allocations within the Knutsford area for housing as part of the second phase of the Local Plan and this could have an impact on the Green Belt.

4.2 Dispose of the Green Land only. Following the Cabinet decision on 10 October 2017, the Council explored further options for facilitating access to the site over the covenanted Green Land. The report prepared as a result of this work can be found at Appendix 8. It found that this option was not a realistic option and would not be a viable solution to the issue of access to the development site, LPS 38. As a result, if only this land was disposed of there is no real prospect that the development could proceed and taking this decision would be similar to not disposing of any land.

4.3 Dispose of the strip of Blue Land only (shown as blue dashed line). This would create the certainty needed to bring forward a planning application and the ultimate development of LPS 38. However, this would also mean that a potential barrier between the development site and Longridge would not be removed. By retaining this land, it will remain as such and the likelihood would be that the new scheme would ‘turn its back’ on Longridge with the effect that the respective housing areas would not be well integrated.

5. Background

5.1 The subject land measures a total of circa 7.5 acres and is located off Longridge and North Downs, Knutsford, situated circa 0.5 miles to the east of Knutsford town centre on the edge of the settlement boundary.

5.2 The Green Land is circa 0.9 acres of land consisting of a thin strip of overgrown land running parallel to Longridge. The Blue Land consists of circa 6.6 acres of land and consists of grassland and hedges. It is proposed that only a small piece of this land would be disposed of. Land adjacent to the Green Land and the Blue Land has been allocated for new housing (Site LPS 38) under the Local Plan adopted on the 27th July 2017.

5.3 The subject land is open space (the Green Land) and designated public open space (the Blue Land). Although the Green Land is not designated as open space in the Council’s Local Plan assessment, the nature and the customary use of that land is such that it is appropriate to treat the land as open space and consequently to consider the proposed disposition in the context of the statutory procedure for the disposal of public open space. The Blue Land is

OFFICIAL Page 37 designated as Green Belt. Change of ownership does not alter that designation. Loss of Green Belt land is a matter for consideration as part of the planning process and not an issue for consideration as part of the statutory process for the proposed disposal of public open space. Similarly the Green Land is subject to a covenant restricting its use as open space, but this is not an issue for the statutory process for the proposed disposal of public open space. Should the Council decide to dispose of this land the covenant would remain in place.

5.4 Given that the Council wishes to minimise the loss of public open space it was proposed to advertise the Blue Land as a proposed disposal of public open space and then as part of the planning process define the exact extent of the land that would be disposed of. This would minimise the extent of the land that is proposed to be taken. Not to do this would mean that a larger area of the Blue Land would be disposed of as the exact area needed to enable access would be defined at a later date by the planning process.

5.5 Pursuant to section 123 of the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended by the Local Government Planning and Land Act 1980) the Council published public open space disposal notices for two consecutive weeks in the local press to confirm its intention to dispose of the land. This allowed all interested parties to comment on or raise any objections to the proposed disposal and the Council must consider the responses in accordance with the statutory process as set out in that legislation. The first advertisement was published in the Knutsford Guardian, a newspaper circulating in the Knutsford area, for two consecutive weeks on 23 November 2017 and again on 30 November 2017 and the deadline for objections / representations was 15 December 2017.

5.6 As a result of feedback from residents, an amended plan (see Appendix 4) was prepared and consequently, a further notice was placed in the Knutsford Guardian. The amended plan showed a reduced subject area focused on the specific part where the strip of land is located which it is proposed to dispose of. Although the land potentially affected fronts onto Longridge, the second notice referred to both Longridge and North Downs as feedback in response to the first notice indicated the subject land may not be clear to residents from the title used in the notices, particularly those of North Downs. The notice was advertised for a further two consecutive weeks in the 14 December 2017 and 21 December 2017 editions and the deadline for objections / representations was 19 January 2018. All communications received whether in response to the first or to the second set of notices are being given due consideration and have been included in Appendix 3 of this report. As a result of the amended publications we do not believe that any interested parties have been disadvantaged.

5.7 In addition to this statutory requirement, the Council also made the information available at its Westfields office and on the Council’s web site and briefed Knutsford Town Council in relation to the notices.

OFFICIAL Page 38 5.8 The Council received 185 representations as part of the process. A copy of the redacted letters can be found in Appendix 3. These have been collated and summarised in Appendix 5. A list of objections (redacted) can be found in Appendix 6 and a summary of grounds for objection and representations is located in Appendix 7.

5.9 151 of the representations were based on a standard format letter objecting to the proposal, 6 were amended versions of the standard letter, but were substantially similar to the standard letter and 28 other letters were presented to the Council that did not follow this template. The main points raised in the objections to the proposed disposal of land are set out below and are discussed in detail in Appendix 5.  Public open space contributes to social well being.  Relocating public open space would make it less accessible to local residents.  The subject land is used for recreation purposes (including football).  The subject land is used regularly for dog walking.  Loss of wildlife habitat.

5.10 The majority of the correspondence focused on the loss of the Blue Land and included some factors such as objections to increased traffic movement and planning matters. These are taken to be references to the proposed development rather than to the actual loss of public open space and therefore are not factors which can be addressed as part of the statutory process for the disposal of public open space. The concerns of residents as to any proposals for development of land is a matter for the Council in its capacity as a Local Planning Authority and have to be considered as part of the planning process and are not issues for this process.

6. Implications of the Recommendations

6.1. Legal Implications

6.1.1. The Council may not dispose of any land which is public open space unless it has advertised the proposed disposal in accordance with Section 123 of the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended by Section 118 of the Local Planning and Land Act 1980) and has given consideration to all objections and representations received in response to such advertisements.

6.1.2. If the decision is made to dispose of the land then:-

6.1.2.1. In accordance with section 123 of the Local Government Act 1972, the Council is under an obligation to obtain the best consideration reasonably obtainable upon the disposal of its property.

OFFICIAL Page 39 6.1.2.2. There will be a requirement to review terms of sale when they are prepared to ensure any issues regarding best value, procurement, and/or state aid are resolved. Terms of sale will also need to reflect any easements and rights for both the land to be disposed of and that retained by the Council. Issues may include rights to light/air, open space and restrictions on building use or development.

6.1.2.3. The Localism Act 2011 introduced the General Power of Competence, which allows the Council to do anything an individual can do, provided it is not prohibited by other legislation. These powers have replaced the previous wellbeing powers; however, the use of these powers must be in support of a reasonable and accountable decision made in line with public law principles.

6.1.2.4. The Council has a fiduciary duty at all times to the taxpayers and must fulfil this duty in a way that is accountable to local people.

6.2. Finance Implications

6.2.1. The sale of land would generate a capital receipt for the Council and reduce a maintenance liability.

6.2.2. The sale of this land would have minimal impact on the maintenance budget. The liability for maintenance would cease and be the responsibility of the new landowner. 6.3. Policy Implications

6.3.1. If so determined the disposal would (subject to planning) facilitate a residential development providing enhanced local facilities that is in keeping with the locality. It will also support the Local Plan allocations and housing land supply as LPS 38 allows for a residential allocation for 225 dwellings.

6.3.2. The Council has a duty to maintain public open space and to consider objections made to its proposed disposal. Consequently it must carefully consider all objections and the impact of loss of public open space before taking a decision as to whether that land should or should not be disposed of. The Council has followed the statutory process under Section 123 of the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended by the Local Government Planning and Land Act 1980).

6.3.3. As part of the development proposal additional public open space will be created and Clause 4 iii of Policy SE6 (Green Infrastructure) of the Local Plan requires new development to provide adequate open space. 6.4. Equality Implications

6.4.1. There are no direct implications for equality.

OFFICIAL Page 40 6.5. Human Resources Implications

6.5.1. There are no direct implications for human resources.

6.6. Risk Management Implications

6.6.1. Any such disposal would be conditional upon receipt of planning consent for housing with access through land allocated as existing open space within the Green Belt. If planning permission is not granted for any reason the disposal will not proceed.

6.6.2. The Council’s statutory duties including its position as the Local Planning and Highways Authority are entirely separate to its duties as land owner relating to the disposal. The consideration of any planning application would be entirely separate from the Council acting in its capacity as a land owner.

6.6.3. As set out in the Cabinet Decision the intention is that the amount of the subject land disposed of to enable access shall be kept to the minimum required for the implementation of the provision of access and services to Local Plan Site LPS 38. The approach taken by the Council will achieve this as only a strip of the Blue Land will be taken to enable access. Based on indicative plans prepared by the promoter of LPS 38, c4% of the Blue Land would be required. However this is subject to a detailed design process which, in turn, will be reflected in any planning application, which will determine the area of land required.

6.7. Rural Communities Implications

6.7.1. There are no direct implications for rural communities.

6.8. Implications for Children & Young People

6.8.1. The proposal minimises the loss of public open space in the locality and this lost open space will be replaced as part of the planning process. There is also the opportunity through the planning process to increase the overall amount of public open space to benefit all residents of Knutsford. 6.9. Public Health Implications

6.9.1. It is anticipated that part of the Blue Land will be disposed of to enable access into LPS 38 and it is also anticipated that the Green Land will be used for access, within the confines of public open space. Any lost public open space will be replaced as part of the planning process. It is anticipated that through the planning process there will be an overall increase in public open space in the locality.

DECISION NOTICE

Notice is given that the following decision has been taken under the Provisions set out in the Council’s Constitution

Decision maker: Portfolio Holder for Housing, Planning and Regeneration

Date: 5 October 2018

Decision in the Proposed Disposal of Public Open Space Land at Longridge, matter of: Knutsford

Decision: That, after having considered the objections and representations received as a result of the statutory process of advertising the Council’s intention to dispose of the land identified in the statutory notices (or any part or parts of that land) and after considering the further work undertaken with regard to the viability of allowing access to LPS 38 over the Green land and considering the representations received in this regard, the Council is to proceed with the disposal of all or any part of the Green land and part of the Blue land. Reasonable endeavours are to be used to minimise the Blue land disposed of for the access road. Such disposals are to be subject to planning.

Background: On 10 October 2017 Cabinet considered a report exploring the potential for enabling access to a development site at Longridge, Knutsford, known as LPS 38 in the Local Plan.

Cabinet resolved that the Executive Director of Place explore further options for facilitating access to the site over the covenanted ‘green land’ and undertake further consultation on the same whilst concurrently advertise the intention to dispose of public open space land delineated blue and delineated green in accordance with the Local Government Act, and that the Portfolio Holder give due consideration to any representations made in response to the advertisement and decide whether or not to dispose of any or all of the green or blue land.

The Council published the public open space disposal notices for two consecutive weeks in the local press on 23 November and on 30 November 2017 to confirm its intention to dispose of the land. A further notice was published with an amended Plan on 14 December and 21 December 2017. In addition the information was made available at the Council Offices in Sandbach and on the Council’s

Page 44 website. Knutsford Town Council was briefed in relation to the notices. The draft Portfolio Holder report was published on 17 July 2018 for a period of 28 days to allow an additional opportunity to make further representations.

Dear Nick,

CHESHIRE EAST HOUSING MONITORING UPDATE CHESHIRE EAST LOCAL PLAN STRATEGY STRATEGIC ALLOCATIONS

I am writing to Willsgrove Developments Ltd as a land and property development company involved in the planning and provision of new homes in Cheshire East. The Council is currently preparing the annual housing monitoring update (HMU) which will have a base date of the 31 March 2018. The assessment will contain updated evidence on completions and commitments and will forecast future delivery on committed and strategic sites. This work is used to guide housing and planning policy and provide information relating to the five year supply of housing sites within the Borough.

 LPS42: GLEBE FARM

LPS42 is allocated for around 525 dwellings. Outline planning permission was recently granted for up to 450 dwellings (13/3449C) on land at Glebe Farm. I understand that Willsgrove Developments Ltd has an interest in this site and that you have recently been in contact with my colleague Tom Evans, with regards to progress.

The Council’s most recent Housing Monitoring Update has a base date of the 31 March 2017 and this currently forecasts that the site will deliver 30 units in the period 1.4.2020 – 31.3.2021 and thereafter a build rate of 50 units per year is forecasted.

OFFICIAL

Page 47

An extract from the current HMU for this strategic allocation is provided at Appendix 1.

For the purposes of the housing monitoring update, we would be grateful to receive your comments on:

1. Site progress. Can you advise on the likely timescale for the submission of a reserved matters application for this site and timescale for first completions? Are there any issues affecting progress?

2. Is there any housebuilder interest in the site and how many outlets are anticipated?

4. Are the completion timescales for the overall site(s) realistic? If not please explain why.

5. Are there any other factors that may influence lead in times or build rates for this site?

I would be grateful to receive a response by no later than the 29 June 2018.

If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.

From: Nick Sent: 28-Jun-2018 17:44 To: COOMBS, Claire Subject: RE: [OFFICIAL] CHESHIRE EAST HOUSING MONITORING UPDATE

Claire,

Thank you for your letter.

In response to your queries: 1 I would anticipate that this would be within 6 to 9 months with first completions say 6 months after. Delay to programme depends on disposal. We are in negotiation at the moment for a sale. 2 yes but I cannot comment on the number of points of sale 3 your forecast seems reasonable 4 the timescale seems reasonable circa 3 to 3.5 per month would suggest a 10 year supply with one point of sale 5 no

I trust this is of assistance.

Dear Lewis,

CHESHIRE EAST HOUSING MONITORING UPDATE CHESHIRE EAST LOCAL PLAN STRATEGY STRATEGIC ALLOCATIONS

I am writing to Turley as planning consultants involved in the planning and provision of new homes in Cheshire East. The Council is currently preparing the annual housing monitoring update (HMU) which will have a base date of the 31 March 2018. The assessment will contain updated evidence on completions and commitments and will forecast future delivery on committed and strategic sites. This work is used to guide housing and planning policy and provide information relating to the five year supply of housing sites within the Borough.

 LPS42: GLEBE FARM

LPS42 is allocated for around 525 dwellings. Outline planning permission was recently granted for up to 450 dwellings (13/3449C) on land at Glebe Farm. A full planning application has also been recently been submitted for land to the south-west of this site for a further 90 dwellings (18/0083C refers). Seddon/ Clarion Homes are the applicants and Turley are acting as agents.

The Council’s most recent Housing Monitoring Update has a base date of the 31 March 2017 and this currently forecasts that the site with planning permission for 450 units will deliver 30 units in the period 1.4.2020 – 31.3.2021 and thereafter a build rate of 50 units per year is forecasted.

OFFICIAL

Page 62

For the residual part of the site (75 dwellings) completions are not expected to take place until the year ending 31.3.2025 with 15 dwellings completed that year. For subsequent years, a build rate of 30 units per year is anticipated.

An extract from the current HMU for this strategic allocation is provided at Appendix 1.

For this site, we would be grateful to receive your comments on:

1. Site progress. Can you advise on the likely timescale for the determination of the current planning application and anticipated lead in time for first completions for this site? Are there any issues affecting progress?

2. How many outlets are anticipated?

4. Are the completion timescales for the overall site(s) realistic? If not please explain why.

5. Are there any other factors that may influence lead in times or build rates for this site?

I would be grateful to receive a response by no later than the 29 June 2018.

If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.

From: Jenny Fryer Sent: 02-Jul-2018 10:09 To: COOMBS, Claire Cc: Lewis Evans Subject: Housing Monitoring Update LPS42: Glebe Farm

Dear Claire

Further to your letter dated 18/06/2018 to my colleague Lewis Evans regarding the Housing Monitoring Update and the projected delivery of LPS42: Glebe Farm I have received the below information from our client, Seddon Construction Ltd.

It is necessary to highlight that our client can only comment on the deliverability of the land under their control which is the western most parcel of land. Our clients area of land is the subject of an application for 90 dwellings (LPA ref: 18/0083C) and therefore comprises only part of the wider site allocation for 525 dwellings.

I deal with each of your questions in turn below in red:

• Site progress. Can you advise on the likely timescale for the determination of the current planning application and anticipated lead in time for first completions for this site? Are there any issues affecting progress? Additional information and supplementary technical information is expected to be submitted around mid- August. A second period of consultation will be required so we don’t expect to get to committee until November 2018. • How many outlets are anticipated? N/A – unknown for the entire LPS42 site. • What annual build rates are anticipated for this site? Are the forecasted build rates outlined likely to happen? Please advise if accelerated lead in/ build rates or any slippage is likely to occur. If any delay/ slippage is expected, what are the reasons for this? Unknown for the wider LPS42 site. Our client expects to start building their site in March 2019 and expect to be finished by March 2021. • Are the completion timescales for the overall site(s) realistic? If not please explain why. See above – unknown for the entire LPS42 site. • Are there any other factors that may influence lead in times or build rates for this site? Requirements for newt relocation works.

Kind regards Jenny

Site Progress – evidence received from site promotors/agents

The Council has instructed Barton Willmore to prepare a masterplan for the site. Two consultation events have taken place with stakeholders that live and work on the site to gain views about redevelopment opportunities and masterplan options. The final masterplan is anticipated shortly. The Council is considering its options for the next steps of the masterplan, potentially through the preparation of a draft Supplementary Planning Document for the site. An outline planning application has been submitted on part of the site for a mixed use development including residential (up to 137 dwellings) , commercial, retail, cafes, marina and other ancillary works residential development (17/6366C) and this is pending determination.

Page 77 SITE & DESIGN CONTEXT

In developing a strategy and masterplan for the Site, it is important to understand the unique historical, current and changing context of Middlewich and the Site. Our assessment process is summarised through this banner.

1898 1954 1969 PRESENT

Historical Context

Middlewich is an historic settlement, dating back to the medieval times. The Town’s heritage is heavily influenced by salt production, the Industrial Revolution, and the canals which serve it.

The maps above show the expanding built development across the Town and on the Site between the 19th and 20th Century. The 1898 Map is the oldest map to show development on the Site, with the Mid-Cheshire Works and tramway being evident. Beyond 1898, the Town has witnessed several stages of predominately residential growth, encompassing the Site. The Present-day Map shows the Site wedged between the railway and canal, towards the edge of the settlement but also closely linked to the historic core. EXISTING TOWN CONNECTIVITY PLAN Middlewich Today

Middlewich has a population of c.14,700 people. Salt still plays an important role in the economy, with British Salt, the UK’s leading manufacturer of pure dried vacuum salt products.

While the commercial use of the canals has reduced, they remain an important cultural asset and the leisure industry is a continued source of activity and investment, as is a renewed interest in the heritage value of the canal system. Changing Context

Cheshire East Council has an ambitious investment strategy for Middlewich, aimed at boosting economic growth and enhancing the vibrancy and attractiveness EXISTING TOWN LAND USE PLAN of the Town. The overarching objectives include the provision of new housing, enhancements to the Town Centre, new employment opportunities, enhancement of the built and natural environment, and improved infrastructure; road and rail.

To help Middlewich deliver these objectives, the Council has affirmed its commitment to securing several development proposals through the Local Plan. This includes new employment development at Midpoint 18 (MA6NITUDE), new housing at Glebe Farm and the completion of the Middlewich Eastern Bypass. In addition, the Brooks Lane site provides the opportunity to deliver attractive mixed-use development comprising new homes, leisure and community facilities and a potential new train station. This offers an exciting opportunity to regenerate the canal-side whilst also enhancing the vitality of the Town Centre. CHANGING CONTEXT PLAN

Page 78 EARLY MASTERPLAN OPTIONS

On Wednesday 11th April 2018, a workshop was held with the people who live and work on the Site, to gain their initial views about redevelopment opportunities. The workshop introduced two outline masterplan options (shown below). The first option showed a shorter-term redevelopment proposal which could deliver the 200 new homes identified in the Local Plan. The second option showed a longer-term, more extensive redevelopment proposal, capable of providing more new homes and wider enhancements.

Several respondents stated a preference to be near Midpoint 18 (MA6NITUDE).

Page 79 THE MASTERPLAN

The assessment and engagement process summarised through the previous banners has helped to inform the production of the masterplan shown below. The masterplan is illustrative, and future more detailed design stages may be able to offer alternative approaches, provided they are in accordance with the Local Plan and broadly follow the masterplan parameters (as outlined on the following banner).
