If there are fewer applications than places available, all applicants will be offered a place. If there are more applications than places available, the criteria outlined below will be used to allocate applications. Rule 1 Looked After Children Children looked after and children who were previously looked after, but ceased to be so because they were adopted (or became subject to a child’s arrangements order or a special guardianship order). Rule 2 Medical or Social Children for whom it can be demonstrated that they have a particular medical or social need to go to the school, which includes children previously abroad who were cared for by the state because he or she would not otherwise have been cared for adequately and subsequently adopted. A panel of HCC officers will determine whether the evidence provided is sufficiently compelling to meet the requirements for this rule. The evidence must relate specifically to the school applied for under Rule 2 and must clearly demonstrate why it is the only school that can meet the child’s needs. Rule 3 Sibling Children who have a sibling at the school at the time of application, unless the sibling is in the last year of the normal age-range of the school.

  • East Herts District Plan
    East Herts District Plan Strategic March 2017 Land Availability Assessment 1.0 Introduction 1.1 National planning policy requires all Local Planning Authorities to produce a technical study known as the Strategic Land Availability Assessment (SLAA) in order to identify sites with potential for future development. The SLAA has informed work on the District Plan and Neighbourhood Planning. It has also assisted with the identification of future land supply. 1.2 The SLAA is a ‘live’ document in that it should be updated on a regular basis in order to reflect changing circumstances. Therefore, this version of the SLAA presents the most up to date position as at March 2017. 2.0 Methodology 2.1 Paragraphs 019 to 021 of the PPG identify that, when undertaking a SLAA, sites should be considered against three criteria, namely; suitability, availability and achievability. These terms are explained below. Suitability The assessment of suitability takes into account a range of policy constraints. These include environmental and heritage designations, impact on landscape and character, flooding and Green Belt / Rural Area Beyond the Green Belt. Availability A site is considered to be available if there are no legal or ownership issues which would prevent the site coming forward for development. Achievability Achievability is effectively a judgement about the economic viability of a site, and the capacity of the developer to complete the development over a certain period of time. 2.2 Having assessed each site against the three criteria, a conclusion can be reached. If a site is considered to be suitable, available and achievable, then it is regarded as being ‘deliverable’.

Have Your Say! Dr Andrea Fejős and Professor Christopher Willett attended and, with the permission of the Chairman, addressed the meeting to ask that proposed Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) T29664816 [Manor Road, Colchester] be approved. Although the TRO had been recommended for rejection by Colchester Borough Council, due to lack of local support, Dr Fejős argued that the Committee could still approve it. The TRO had been requested by Dr Fejős and Professor Willett in order to stop vehicles parking in front of a flat’s front window which they noted was the only alternative exit/fire escape for the property. It would prevent such parking and involve moving the parking space to further along the road, on the opposite side of the road.

    Gilston Area Settlement Appraisal Settlement Appraisal Gilston Area 1. History 1.1 The Supporting Document records the various stages of assessment that were undertaken to inform the Preferred Options District Plan. It therefore provides an essential background to this Settlement Appraisal. In particular, Chapters 4 to 6 of the Supporting Document explained the process of shortlisting or ‘sieving’ options or ‘Areas of Search’. 1.2 On the basis of the assessments contained within the Supporting Document, and the rest of the evidence base that was available at that time, land to the north of Harlow, known as ‘the Gilston Area’ was identified as a preferred location for development. However, given the size and complexity of the site, and the need for the Council to gather further evidence regarding deliverability, the Gilston Area was not proposed for allocation at that stage. Instead, the Preferred Options District Plan identified it as a ‘Broad Location for Development’ for the delivery of between 5,000 and 10,000 new homes, both within this plan period and beyond, along with a range of supporting infrastructure such as new roads, primary and secondary schools, health centres and public open space. 1.3 Given the uncertainty of delivery at that time, and the need to undertake comprehensive masterplanning work, it was proposed that a separate Development Plan Document (DPD) be prepared following adoption of the District Plan in order to allocate the site. The DPD approach would set out the Council’s intention to deliver development during the latter part of the Plan period, and would enable further consideration of site boundaries, Green Belt boundaries and infrastructure requirements.

Full details in respect of how the Council has accorded with the Duty to Cooperate, including the key organisations it has engaged with, is set out in the Duty to Cooperate Compliance Statement August 2018 (HSD14), that was submitted with the Harlow Local Development Plan (HLDP) in October 2018. 1.1 Duty to Co-operate: 2) The Localism Act 2011 placed a duty on Councils to co‐operate on strategic planning matters that cross administrative boundaries. The Government considered that strategic policy‐making authorities should collaborate to identify the relevant strategic matters which they need to address in their plans. As a former new town, with tight administrative boundaries, Harlow Council has, over the years worked collaboratively with a range of other bodies on strategic planning and related matters affecting the M11 corridor and west Essex and east Hertfordshire. This dates back to when Regional Spatial Planning Strategies provided an overarching strategic plan making framework for the wider area. 3) Specific bodies the Council has co‐operated with in the production of the Harlow Local Development Plan include the following: Neighbouring Local Planning and highway authorities, including East Hertfordshire, Epping Forest
