Introduction 1.1 The Local Plan is an important document that will be used to determine planning applications in the city. Once adopted, the Local Plan will be used to guide new development in the city for the next 15 years, up to 2032. 1.2 In March 2012 the Government published the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). The NPPF and the supporting National Planning Practice Guidance (NPPG) inform the content of the Local Plan. Paragraph 154 of the NPPF states that Local Plans should be… …aspirational but realistic. They should address the spatial implications of economic, social and environmental change. Local Plans should set out the opportunities for development and clear policies on what will or will not be permitted and where. 1.3 In order to retain control of its planning decisions, it is important that Hull has an up-to-date Local Plan. Once adopted, the new Local Plan will entirely supersede the Hull Local Plan (2000) and the Hull and East Riding Joint Structure Plan (2005). What is this consultation? 1.4 This is the Publication version of the Local Plan. It is the version of the Plan the Council intends to submit to the Government for examination, subject to any changes arising through consultation or new evidence arising in the intervening period before actual submission. During examination, an independent inspector will decide whether the plan is 'sound'. According to NPPF paragraph 182, a 'sound' plan is one that is: Positively prepared – the plan should be prepared based on a strategy which seeks to meet objectively assessed development and infrastructure requirements, including unmet requirements from neighbouring authorities where it is reasonable to do so and consistent with achieving sustainable development; Justified – the plan should be the most appropriate strategy, when considered against the reasonable alternatives, based on proportionate evidence; Effective – the plan should be deliverable over its period and based on effective joint working on cross-boundary strategic priorities; and Consistent with national policy – the plan should enable the delivery of sustainable development in accordance with the policies in the NPPF. 1.5 The Council considers this document to be a 'sound' Local Plan for Hull. Therefore, if you are responding to this consultation, you should aim to express your views in terms of whether you believe the Plan is sound or not, using the above definition. 6 DRAFT June 2016 Hull Local Plan: Publication Consultation Document 1.6 The Plan contains planning policies, site allocations and area designations that the Council believes to be appropriate. It is based on a large evidence base as well as responses we received to previous consultations. In particular, the Council ran an Issues and Options consultation between May and June 2014, and a Preferred Options consultation between October and November 2015. We have considered all the responses that were made to these consultations, and they have helped inform production of this document. 1.7 The Plan supersedes a number of saved planning policies. These saved policies come from the Hull Local Plan (2000), the Hull and East Riding Joint Structure Plan (2005), the Newington & St Andrew's AAP (2010), and the Holderness Road Corridor AAP (2011). Appendix A lists the saved policies and whether or not they are superseded by this Plan. 1.8 We have an up-to-date and robust evidence base that tells us about the need for different land uses in the city. These documents have enabled us to produce the content of this document. The main evidence base documents are available online at the Council's website: www.hullcc.gov.uk/planning How to respond 1.9 You can comment on any part of the Local Plan Publication Consultation Document. You can also comment on the Sustainability Appraisal and Evidence Base documents which support the Local Plan. 1.10 The consultation will run for 6 weeks. The deadline for receiving your responses is noon on Monday 25 July 2016. 1.11 You can respond online at: www.hullcc.gov.uk/planning or you can complete the paper response form and post it back to us using the following Freepost address: FREEPOST RSJC-KKBE-ABXZ Planning Policy Hull City Council PO BOX 15 HULL HU1 2AB 1.12 Alternatively email responses to: [email protected] Next steps 1.13 The rules for producing a Local Plan are set out in legislation. This consultation falls under Regulation 19 of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012. It requires us to make publicly available the Local Plan and a statement of the representations procedure for 6 weeks before submitting it to the Secretary of State. DRAFT June 2016 7 Hull Local Plan: Publication Consultation Document 1.14 We will then submit the Local Plan, along with supporting documents (the evidence base), and a summary of all the representations made during the consultation stages, to the Secretary of State. An independent inspector will be appointed and a public examination will take place. If the inspector finds the Plan to be sound, or can make modifications to make the Plan sound, the Council will be allowed to adopt it. Once adopted, the new Hull Local Plan will be used to determine planning applications in the city. Figure 1.1 Stages of Local Plan preparation Issues and Options (May ‐ June 2014) Preferred Options (October ‐ November 2015) Publication (this document) (June –July 2016) Submit to Secretary of State (November 2016) Examination in Public (February 2017) Adoption (October 2017) This document 1.15 Chapter 2 sets the local and strategic context for the Plan. Chapter 3 then introduces the overall strategy for the Plan by outlining a vision, a set of strategic priorities and a key diagram. 1.16 Chapters 4 to 14 are then based around key themes. Although each theme is dealt with separately, the document needs to be read as a whole in order to understand fully the spatial issues facing the city, and the interrelationships between policies. 1.17 The diagram on the next page illustrates the structure of the document as well as the context that helps to inform it.

  • The Humber Metro

    The Humber Metro

    The Humber Metro The Humber Metro is a very futuristic concept, depending, as it does, on the existence of the Humber tunnel between Goxhill and the approach to Paragon station, proposed as part of HS10 in the ‘HS Eastern Routes and Service Plans’ article. As noted there, although the tunnel will be built to GC gauge, it is intended from the outset to be shared with Regional Metro traffic between Cleethorpes and Hull, which will at least initially be of UK loading gauge. The Humber Metro covers the area from Selby and Goole in the west to Cleethorpes and Withernsea in the east, and from Grimsby in the south to Bridlington in the north. The core section, built to GC-gauge, as all new infrastructure should be, runs in tunnel under the centre of Hull between Paragon (LL) and Cannon St. (former H&B) stations, with a connection to the Hornsea / Withernsea lines just before Wilmington, and another to the Beverley line at Cottingham. Other than that (and the Humber tunnel, of course,) it takes over the routes of existing and former, long closed, branches. The proposed metro services fall into two groups, either cross-river or west-east along the north bank. The services of the first group are: 2tph Cleethorpes – New Clee – Grimsby Docks – Grimsby Town – West Marsh – Great Coates – Healing – Stallingborough – Habrough – Ulceby – Thornton Abbey – Goxhill – Hull Paragon (LL) – George St. – Cannon St. – Beverley Rd. – Jack Kaye Walk – Cottingham – Beverley – Arram – Lockington – Hutton Cranswick – Great Driffield – Nafferton – Lowthorpe – Burton Agnes – Carnaby – Bridlington 2tph Cleethorpes – New Clee – Grimsby Docks – Grimsby Town – West Marsh – Great Coates – Healing – Stallingborough – Habrough – Ulceby – Thornton Abbey – Goxhill – Hull Paragon (LL) – George St.

    Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) 10

    Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) 10 Trees Adopted 7 January 2019 1 1. Introduction / summary 1.1 This Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) acts as guidance to policies in the Hull Local Plan 2016 to 2032, adopted in November 2017. The Local Plan is a 16 year document which sets out the vision for growth in Hull. It identifies the quantity and location for new housing, community facilities, shops and employment provision. 1.2 This document provides planning guidance on Policy 45 – ‘Trees’. It gives advice as to how future planting of trees and tree protection should be addressed via the planning process and the considerations that need to be taken into account before, during and after development. 1.3 Local Plan policy seeks to promote an increase in the provision and diversity of green infrastructure, particularly tree and woodland provision, for its benefits in urban cooling, health and well-being, and conserving and enhancing biodiversity. 1.4 The Supplementary Planning Document seeks to: • Provide clarity to developers, statutory consultees, local residents and other stakeholders; • Outline the national and local planning policy context that guides how trees should be considered in development. • Outline the broad benefits of trees and woodland to the city. • Explain what role trees have in contributing to the distinctive character of areas within the city ; • Explain how new planting of trees should be incorporated into future development, either on site or where this is not possible where future planting should be directed. This includes how planting can be directed to achieve objectives of increasing biodiversity and to support flood risk mitigation.
  • Old Town East Appraisal

    Old Town East Appraisal

    THE OLD TOWN CONSERVATION AREA CHARACTER APPRAISAL STATEMENT FOR THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN PART OF THE ABOVE AREA 3 Introduction 3.1. Conservation Areas represent the best of the City's built heritage. In order to make informed decisions involving this heritage Local Planning Authorities need to define the essential character and appearance of Conservation Areas. Hence there is a need to agree character appraisals, or statements. 3.2. The immediate practical benefits of character appraisals are that they: a. Assist in determining applications for planning permission, conservation area, listed building and display of advertisements consents in or affecting conservation areas. b. Assist in presenting the City Council's case at associated Appeals and Inquiries. c. Form a basis for consultation as part of the Statutory Requirements to produce proposals for the preservation and enhancement of each conservation area. 3.3. The clearer and more robust such appraisals are, the greater their contribution will be in fulfilling each of these objectives. Character Appraisal for the Central Eastern Part of the Old Town Conservation Area 4. Origins and Development of the Area 4.1. The most significant aspect of the Old Town is that its medieval street pattern is largely intact. It is typical of towns dating from the 14th Century. Alfred Gelder Street was created in 1901, as part of a programme of Street improvement, which largely created the modern pattern of traffic routes through Kingston upon Hull. The Castle Street/Garrison Road highway developed in the early 1980s, follows the broad alignment of the former Mytongate although all physical evidence of its existence has been obliterated.
