Duty to Cooperate - Yes Support – The Coal Authority welcomes the recognition of the Cumbria Minerals and Waste Local Plan and the need to reflect the prescribed Mineral Safeguarding Areas into this Local Plan once they are adopted. 20529 Objection Policy: n/a 1.11 & 1.40 8 & 13 195 Andrea McCallum Clerk to Stanwix Rural Parish Counc Detail Amended paragraph 1.11 of the Draft LP mentions Neighbourhood Planning Areas, with specific reference to Dalston. However; no reference is made to Parish Plans and Design Statements. These documents commonly result from widespread and effective community involvement undertaken by Parish Councils, often with assistance from the LPA, and are capable of being used to inform Local Plans and planning applications. These should be noted along whenever reference is made to Neighbourhood Planning or Neighbourhood Planning Areas. With regard to paragraph 1.40 - Settlement Boundaries the Parish Council maintains the view expressed in its first response to consultation, when it urged retention of settlement boundaries as ‘indicative boundaries’ only. Not being definitive these would not in any way inhibit the responsiveness or flexibility of the LPA, but would greatly serve the interests of community engagement through illustrating the parameters of community identity – a significant factor when considering proposals that may significantly re-shape or re-define such a community. It must be remembered that the NPPF, although not advocating the use of settlement boundaries, certainly does it prohibit their retention. 07 August 2014 Page 1 of 3 RepNo Status Paragraph Page Stage 2 Map: Consultee Ref No Consultees.Contact Organisation Agent 20623 Objection Policy: n/a 1.13 8 104 Emily Hrycan English Heritage North West Detail A requirement of the NPPF (Paragraph 169) is that a sound local plan will be based on a strong upto-date evidence base about the historic environment. This should be used to assess the significance of the heritage assets in the area and the contribution they make to the Borough. The published evidence base available on the Council’s website lacks sufficient evidence that relates to the historic environment. The Rural Masterplanning In Carlisle District includes a number of settlement profiles of, rural areas, which references the historic environment (yet the findings of this have not been used to inform the Local Plan). The Plan needs to be expanded to explicitly detail the heritage assets in the Borough and to make an assessment of their contribution to the area. 20560 Comment Policy: n/a 1.19 09 193 Sue Tarrant Clerk to Wetheral Parish Council Detail Community Infrastructure Levy Should be adopted. All agree levy must come back to Local Community 20590 Objection Policy: n/a 1.19 9 196 Mrs S Tarrant Clerk to Cummersdale Parish Coun Detail Disappointed that the CIL consultation did not run concurrently with the Local Plan. 20298 Support Policy: n/a 1.42 234 S Nicholson A008 Detail Support for the stance of not pursuing settlement boundaries on the Local Plan Policies Map in respect of the various rural villages so as to, inter alia, be responsive to local circumstances and plan housing development to reflect local needs. 20165 Support Policy: n/a 1.42 034 Lucy Adamski A008 Detail Support for the stance of not pursuing settlement boundaries on the Local Plan Policies Map in respect of the various rural villages so as to, inter alia, be responsive to local circumstances and plan housing development to reflect local needs. 07 August 2014 Page 2 of 3 RepNo Status Paragraph Page Stage 2 Map: Consultee Ref No Consultees.Contact Organisation Agent 07 August 2014 Page 3 of 3 STAGE 2 REPRESENTATIONS RepNo Status Paragraph Page Stage 2 Map: Consultee Ref No Consultees.Contact Organisation Agent Stage 2 Chapter 02 20548 Support Policy: n/a 270 Carlisle Shopping Centre Ltd A028 Detail The Vision for the District Local Plan sets out the long term objectives for Carlisle in terms of the future of the City Centre and various other aspects of the District. The Vision sets out that as the urban capital of Cumbria, Carlisle should further establish its position as a centre for activity and prosperity in the north-west. To achieve this, there is a need to encourage investors and developers to invest their resources in Carlisle, to deliver an excellent supply of quality market and affordable homes, businesses, accessible services and a wide cultural offer. This is intended to result in a vibrant City surrounded by high quality urban and rural environments with prosperous market towns and thriving villages. We fully support this Vision, and consider that Carlisle has significant opportunities to achieve the objectives set out in the new Local Plan. We would recommend that any development that incorporates retail or leisure should be delivered in the City Centre as a priority, with the surrounding market towns and thriving villages offering a supporting role to the main retail provision within the City Centre. 20123 Support Policy: n/a 218 Executors of Mrs M Coulson A013 Detail We welcome the Council’s objectives outlined in Chapter 2. In particular the Housing Objective which seeks development of housing in a ‘variety of locations’ which will help build communities and support economic growth. It is vital the Council recognise the important role smaller rural villages have to play is servicing the local community and surrounding rural hinterland. 20213 Support Policy: n/a 077 Mr Alan Hubbard National Trust Detail National Trust continues to support the proposed Vision. 20620 Comment Policy: n/a 17 080 Mike Downham Carlisle Food City Steering Group Detail Vision - We suggest the insertion after "… cultural offer" of "..., including locally produced food." 20339 Objection Policy: n/a 18 154/26/27 Mr Bryan Craig Detail I would like to see the word ‘greatest’ removed from the second line. 07 August 2014 Page 1 of 4 RepNo Status Paragraph Page Stage 2 Map: Consultee Ref No Consultees.Contact Organisation Agent 20624 Objection Policy: n/a 18 104 Emily Hrycan English Heritage North West Detail Spatial Strategy and Strategic Policies Bullet 2 : We welcome the reference to protection and enhancement of the historic environment as one of the key objectives for the spatial strategy. However, there appears to be no spatial strategy for the historic environment. We also welcome the inclusion of a specific reference to the historic environment and the objectives contained within. The Plan needs to introduce a specific strategic policy, which deals with the historic environment which would detail the Council’s spatial strategy and how it will be delivered locally. 20627 Support Policy: n/a 26 104 Emily Hrycan English Heritage North West Detail Objectives: We welcome the expansion of this objective, which now deals with the historic environment. 20561 Objection Policy: n/a 2.12 - 2.15 22 - 23 193 Sue Tarrant Clerk to Wetheral Parish Council Detail All agreed a new pipe line would be preferable to a villages such as Great Corby & Wetheral- The City Council should be more insistent. 20626 Comment Policy: n/a 2.24 & 2.26 22 104 Emily Hrycan English Heritage North West Detail We welcome recognition of the importance the Districts heritage plays in tourism and the overall economy of Carlisle. However, as mentioned above there needs to be a proper assessment and description of this in the portrait of the District and reinforced in the relevant policy. The Plan should be expanded to detail the historic environment throughout the District and the importance of this in relation to tourism should be emphasised. 20227 Objection Policy: n/a 2.26 088 Elizabeth Allnutt Save Our Streets Detail Para 2.26 Culture and Heritage. The proposed Arts Centre in Warwick Street should merit a mention here. 20340 Objection Policy: n/a 2.8 20 154/26/27 Mr Bryan Craig Detail Dalston is not a market town and this needs to be re-worded possibly by taking out ‘and’ and inserting’ plus’ taking out ‘smaller’ and adding ‘other’. 07 August 2014 Page 2 of 4 RepNo Status Paragraph Page Stage 2 Map: Consultee Ref No Consultees.Contact Organisation Agent 20625 Objection Policy: n/a 2.8 20 104 Emily Hrycan English Heritage North West Detail There has been no proper, accurate assessment of the significance of heritage assets in the area and the contribution they make to the Borough (NPPF, Paragraph 169). This paragraph needs to expand on the portrait of the built heritage within the District to illustrate this. This section would benefit from breaking the district down into smaller areas with a description of each one (to tie in with the detailed policy maps). Although reference has been made to the number of listed buildings and conservation areas. The Plan does not go far enough to show the character of the area and the contribution it makes to all aspects of life and why it is special. Further into the document, reference is made to a variety of heritage assets (both designated and nondesignated) and this should be brought out here to be consistent. They have been highlighted so are obviously considered an important part of the character of the District for example historic market towns. The Plan needs to explicitly detail the historic environment and heritage assets and the contribution they make to the whole District.
