    PROPOSED SUBMISSION LOCAL PLAN INCORPORATING THE PROPOSED MAIN MODIFICATIONS NORTH HERTFORDSHIRE LOCAL PLAN 2011-2031 PROPOSED SUBMISSION (SEPTEMBER 2016) INCORPORATING THE PROPOSED MAIN MODIFICATIONS (NOVEMBER 2018) AND FURTHER PROPOSED MODIFICATIONS (MAY 2021) PROPOSED SUBMISSION LOCAL PLAN INCORPORATING THE PROPOSED MAIN MODIFICATIONS NOTE: In November 2018, the Inspector examining the new Local Plan issued his Main Modifications. Following further Hearing Sessions in 2020/21, the Inspector has issued Further Proposed Main Modifications. This document shows the Plan as it is proposed to be modified. It is not formally issued by the Inspector as part of the Further Proposed Main Modifications consultation. It has been produced by the Council to aid prospective consultees as well as decision makers and those (considering) applying for planning permission. The Schedule of Further Proposed Main Modifications, as issued by the Inspector, is the definitive list of further proposed alterations to the plan. The Schedule takes precedence in the event of any conflict between the documents. This document shows how the Local Plan could read if the Main Modifications and the Further Proposed Modifications are fully incorporated into the original text of the Local Plan as submitted for examination in June 2017 (Examination Library reference LP1). In presenting the emerging Plan in this way, it is recognised that all proposed modifications are issued without prejudice to any Inspector’s report and may change. Planning decisions will give weight to relevant policies in the emerging plan in accordance with paragraph 48 of the NPPF. This document does not contain page numbers to avoid confusion with the Schedule of Proposed Main Modifications which refers to the page numbers in LP1.

P1850 London Arc Job Growth and Employment Land Executive Summary INTRODUCTION 1 This study was commissioned by the seven district and borough councils of the Hertfordshire London Arc, comprising Broxbourne, Dacorum, Hertsmere, St Albans, Three Rivers, Watford and Welwyn Hatfield, as part of the evidence base for their new Local Development Frameworks. Its purpose is to advise on the future provision of employment land, comprising factories, warehouses and offices1, to 2026 and beyond. 2 The study partially updates earlier employment land studies carried out by Roger Tym & Partners in 2004-07 and brings them together to provide a broad overview across the study area. It was commissioned partly in response to the latest iteration of the then emerging East of England Plan, which introduced the London Arc as a sub-regional entity. 3 As a sub-regional overview, this study focuses on the broad spatial distribution of jobs and land and on the larger employment sites. It leaves many issues to be considered by districts individually, including land provision for individual settlements, the market potential of smaller sites, and development constraints/availability for all sites.
