A strategic environmental assessment has been undertaken to inform the Strete Neighbourhood Plan. This process is required by the SEA Regulations. Neighbourhood Plan groups use SEA to assess Neighbourhood Plans against a set of sustainability objectives developed in consultation with interested parties. The purpose of the assessment is to avoid adverse environmental and socio-economic effects through the Neighbourhood Plan, and identify opportunities to improve the environmental quality of the area covered by the Neighbourhood Plan and the quality of life of residents. What is the Strete Neighbourhood Plan? The Strete Neighbourhood Plan presents a plan for the administrative area of Strete Parish Council for the period to 2034. Prepared to be in conformity with the emerging South West Devon Joint Local Plan, it sets out a vision and a range of policies for the Neighbourhood Plan area. These relate to a range of topics, including, but not limited to, landscape and townscape character, the quality of life of residents, tourism and the protection and enhancement of the environment. It is currently anticipated that the Strete Neighbourhood Plan will undergo a referendum in early 2018. Purpose of this Environmental Report This Environmental Report, which accompanies the current ‘Regulation 14’ consultation on the Strete Neighbourhood Plan, is the second document to be produced as part of the SEA process. The first document was the SEA Scoping Report (September 2017), which includes information about the Neighbourhood Plan area’s environment and community. The purpose of this Environmental Report is to: Identify, describe and evaluate the likely significant effects of the Strete Neighbourhood Plan and alternatives; and Provide an opportunity for consultees to offer views on any aspect of the SEA process which has been carried out to date. The Environmental Report contains: An outline of the contents and main objectives of the Strete Neighbourhood Plan and its relationship with other relevant policies, plans and programmes; Relevant
