Consultation Statement Marden Neighbourhood Plan April 2019 Page | 1 Consultation Statement Marden Neighbourhood Plan April 2019 Marden Neighbourhood Plan Basic Consultation Statement April 2019 Regulation 16 Page | 2 WHAT IS A CONSULTATION STATEMENT? The purposes of this consultation statement is to set out how the Marden Neighbourhood Plan (MNP) has fully engaged with the local residential and business community, nearby parishes, service providers, decision makers and other stakeholders. This statement is prepared in accordance with the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012. Section 15 (2) states In this regulation ‘consultation statement’ means a document which – (a) contains details of the persons and bodies who were consulted about the proposed neighbourhood plan; (b) explains how they were consulted; (c) summarises the main issues and concerns raised by the persons consulted; and (d) describes how these issues and concerns have been considered and, where relevant, addressed in the proposed neighbourhood development plan. Marden Neighbourhood Plan Basic Consultation Statement April 2019 Regulation 16 Page | 3 THE ETHOS OF THE MARDEN NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN Marden Parish Council has always taken a proactive approach to understanding that change is inevitable and not always such a bad thing. The Parish Council was represented in the production of the Marden Design Statement in 2001 and the Marden Community Plan in 2007. The Parish Council has been eager to support any community-led document which would represent the views of the village and be a useful tool to influence development within the Parish. The intention has always been to update the work of the previous documents and it was originally envisaged that this would take the form of a Parish Plan. However, it was agreed this process would not begin until Maidstone Borough Council had updated its Local Plan, referred to at the time as a Core Strategy. In this intervening period national legislation introduced the concept of Neighbourhood Plans and work on the Marden Neighbourhood Plan began. The Parish Council resolved to encourage the production of a Neighbourhood Plan for Marden. However it was understood that for the Plan to be truly representative the process should not be Council dominated. The concept of a Neighbourhood Plan was first presented to the village in 2012 and volunteers came forward to form the Steering Group. Membership of the Steering Group was open to all and members brought with them a range of experience and knowledge. It was clear that the Steering Group already comprised representatives of many village groups and societies. The skills and range of expertise of members has meant that the process has been undertaken largely without the need to ‘buy in’ external assistance. This breadth of experience immediately ensured a broad view, with elected members, school governors, residents, members of the village organisations, local businesses and developers being represented at meetings. This meant that the Steering Group was able to maintain a good balance of representation, although like all other Neighbourhood Plans and similar groups, it has been difficult to involve traditionally hard-to-reach groups. This has been a reason for concentrating much effort on the empirical consultation stage. The best form of consultation is to just listen. The Steering Group has always been aware of the need to demonstrate support for the content of a Plan. However, it was a specific aim of the group that everything should emerge from the community and, therefore, the imposition of a rigid structure on the process was purposefully avoided. Steering Group members understood that it is the process of community involvement that would give the plan credibility, and took this message back to their own groups, societies and workplaces. As a result considerable time and effort has been invested in explaining the process, rather than rushing into a pre-determined Marden Neighbourhood Plan Basic Consultation Statement April 2019 Regulation 16 Page | 4 format. Consequently the Steering Group has had a presence at many village events to publicise and explain the aims and progress of the Plan. A variety of topics were identified by Steering Group members and local residents. The Steering Group then formed topic groups depending on the interests, experiences and skills of the volunteers. The topic groups adopted different ways of gathering views and presenting information. This variety of approaches was encouraged to ensure genuine engagement – there was a specific aim not to ‘oversteer’ the process. Members met with other community representatives, local politicians from neighbouring parishes, doctors from the Medical Centre, local business owners and other key village people. These meetings were both on a formal and informal basis. The value of this period of empirical research must not be underestimated merely because such research is difficult to quantify. This, in conjunction with the previously published documents, provided the basis for the topics and embryonic policies. The topic groups assembled their results from the empirical research phase and then analysed other published documents in the light of their findings. These documents included Maidstone Borough Council evidence base documents, the Marden Design Statement and the Marden Community Plan; and the policies of Marden Parish Council, of particular relevance being the Developer Contributions (or S106) policy document. Other publications were also useful, many of which have been produced by the Marden History Group. This analysis was done in conjunction with Members’ research into national policy. The NPPF had been introduced just prior to the commencement of the MNP and members realised the overriding significance of this document. The Plan has continued to be developed in accordance with the revised 2018 NPPF. For all Steering Group members this has been a period of great personal learning. This was undertaken in parallel with the constant monitoring of the Maidstone Borough Council emerging Local Plan. This was an important exercise in itself and enabled the Group to provide a detailed response to the ongoing Local Plan consultation. This has encouraged Steering Group members and local residents to gain a better understanding of the planning process and the impact of the Local Plan on Marden. This is an achievement in itself. Marden Neighbourhood Plan Basic Consultation Statement April 2019 Regulation 16 Page | 5 WHO DID THE MNP CONSULT WITH? The manner in which the MNP has been created means that the process has been continuously open to comment and suggestion. The MNP has employed a range of consultation methods in order to ensure the MNP is a truly representative planning document. The topics and policies themselves have evolved as a result of continuous consultation. As an integral part of the policy formation process MNP contacted all village organisations, village businesses, neighbouring parish councils, statutory consultees, local councillors and MPs. The responses of all have shaped the MNP policies. The MNP was submitted to MBC for the pre-submission consultation (Regulation 14) on 9th June 2018 (the consultation period ran until 21st July 2018). As part of the Regulation 14 six week pre-submission consultation process the draft MNP has been brought to the direct attention of the following bodies and organisations.

    Dave Brown by dave brown, 12-May-10 01:22 AM GMT Saturday 8th May 2010. One look out of the window told me today was not the day for butterflies or dragonflies. A phone call from a friend then had us heading to my favourite place. Good old Dungeness. Scenery not the best in the world but the wildlife exceeedingly good. Thirty minutes later we were watching a Whiskered Tern hawking insects over the New Diggings, showing from the road to Lydd. Also present were a few hundred Swifts, Swallows, House and Sand Martins, together with a few Common Terns. A quick chat with Dave Walker (very friendly Observatory Warden) and his equally friendly assistant confirmed that the recent weather there meant little or no Butterfly or moth activity. With the rain falling harder it was time to leave Dunge and head inland. The Iberian Chifchaf at Waderslade had already been present over a week so it was time to catch up with it. On arrival at the small wood of Chesnut Avenue the bird showed and sang within a few minutes of our arrival. This is still a scarce bird in Britain so where was the crowd. In 30 minutes the maximum crowd was five, and that included 3 from our family. It sang for long periods of time and only once did it mutter the usual Chifchaf call, otherwise it was Iberian Chifchaf all the way. It also look slighlty diferent in structure and colour. To my eyes the upper parts were greener, the legs were a brown colour and the tail appeared longer.

  • Coarse Fishing Close Season on English Rivers
    Coarse fishing close season on English rivers Appendix 1 – Current coarse fish close season arrangements The close season on different waters In England, there is a coarse fish close season on all rivers, some canals and some stillwaters. This has not always been the case. In the 1990s, only around 60% of the canal network had a close season and in some regions, the close season had been dispensed with on all stillwaters. Stillwaters In 1995, following consultation, government confirmed a national byelaw which retained the coarse fish close season on rivers, streams, drains and canals, but dispensed with it on most stillwaters. The rationale was twofold: • Most stillwaters are discrete waterbodies in single ownership. Fishery owners can apply bespoke angling restrictions to protect their stocks, including non-statutory close times. • The close season had been dispensed with on many stillwaters prior to 1995 without apparent detriment to those fisheries. This presented strong evidence in favour of removing it. The close season is retained on some Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) and the Norfolk and Suffolk Broads, as a precaution against possible damage to sensitive wildlife - see Appendix 1. This consultation is not seeking views on whether the close season should be retained on these stillwaters While most stillwater fishery managers have not re-imposed their own close season rules, some have, either adopting the same dates as apply to rivers or tailoring them to their waters' specific needs. Canals The Environment Agency commissioned a research project in 1997 to examine the evidence around the close season on canals to identify whether or not angling during the close season was detrimental to canal fisheries.
