Doncaster Local Plan

Publication Draft 2019

(For Official Use Only)

COMMENTS (REPRESENTATION) FORM

Please respond by 6pm Monday 30 September 2019.

The Council considers the Local Plan is ready for examination. It is formally “publishing” the Plan to invite

comments on whether you agree it meets certain tests a Government appointed independent Inspector will use to examine the Plan (see Guidance Notes overleaf). That is why it is important you use this form. It may appear technical but the structure is how the Inspector will consider comments. Using the form also allows you to register interest in taking part in the examination. All comments received will be sent to the Inspector

when the plan is “submitted” for examination.

Please email your completed form to us at

If you can’t use email, hard copies can be sent to:
Planning Policy & Environment Team, Doncaster Council, Civic Office, Doncaster, DN1 3BU.

All of the Publication documents (including this form) are available at: www.doncaster.gov.uk/localplan

Guidance Notes (Please read before completing form)

What can I make comments on?

You can comment (make representations) on any part of the Doncaster Local Plan Publication Version and its supporting documents. These include: Sustainability Appraisal, Habitat Regulations Assessment, Topic Papers and other supporting technical (evidence base) documents. The full list of documents is available at: www.doncaster.gov.uk/localplan. However, this stage is really for you to say whether you think the plan is legally compliant and ‘sound’(seebelow).

Do I have to use the response form?

Yes please. This is because further changes to the plan are for a Planning Inspector to consider during an Examination in Public and providing responses in a consistent format is important. For this reason, all responses should use this response form.

You can attach additional evidence to support your case – but please ensure it is clearly referenced and succinct. The Inspector will decide if further additional evidence is required before or during the Public Examination.

For the inspector to consider your comments, you must provide your name and address with your response. Additional response forms are available online at www.doncaster.gov.uk/localplan

Can I submit representations on behalf of a group or neighbourhood?

  • be
  • Yes you can. Where there are groups who share a common view on how they wish to see the plan modified, it would

helpful for that group to send a single form that represents that view. In such cases the group should indicate how many people it is representing including a list of their names and addresses, and how the representation was agreed e.g. via a parish council/action group meeting, signing a petition, etc. It should still be submitted on this standard form with the information attached.

Question 3 (below) – What does ‘legally compliant’ mean?

Legally compliant means asking whether or not the plan has been prepared in line with statutory regulations, the duty to cooperate and legal procedural requirements such as the Sustainability Appraisal (SA). Details of how the plan has been prepared are set out in the published Consultation Statements and the Duty to Cooperate Statement, which can be found

at: www.doncaster.gov.uk/localplan

Questions 4/5 (below) – What does ‘soundness’ mean?

Soundness means asking whether or not it is ‘fit for purpose’ and ‘showing good judgement’. The Inspector will explore and

investigate the plan against the National Planning Policy Framework’s four ‘tests of soundness’1. These are:



Positively prepared - the Plan should be prepared so it meets Doncaster's objectively assessed needs for housing and other development, including infrastructure and business development.

Justified – the Plan should be based on evidence, and be an appropriate strategy for the Borough when considered against other reasonable alternatives.

Effective – the Plan should be deliverable and based on effective joint-working on cross-local authority boundary matters as evidenced in a Statement of Common Ground.

Consistent with national policy – the plan should enable sustainable development and be consistent with the Government's National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF).

Question 8 (below) – Do I need to attend the Public Examination?

You can present your representation at a hearing session during the Public Examination but you should note that Inspectors do not give more weight to issues presented in person than written evidence. The Inspector will use his/her own discretion to decide who should participate at the Public Examination. All examination hearings will be open to the public.

Marr Parish Meeting Response to the Consultation on the proposed Local Plan for Doncaster 2015-2035

Dear Madam, Marr Parish Meeting would like to fully participate in the Local Plan Consultation for Doncaster. Following our most recent Parish meeting and on the resident’s feedback we have previously reviewed the Draft proposal on Homes and Settlements and the accompanying Green Belt Reviews, Sustainability Appraisal along with the Feedback from previous consultations. Reference has also been made to the various accompanying evidence based Reports and the amended Vision, Aims and Objectives and consideration has been given to the Local Plan in its entirety, including the Appendices, HELAA, Settlement Background Paper, Settlement Audit, Local Plan Evidence Base, Doncaster Infrastructure Strategy, Green Belt Topic Paper, Green Belt Stage 3 Site Summaries, Section 106 Monitoring Report, and NPPF March 2019. Based on available documents the Marr Residents have requested that I, on their behalf, formally register their contribution to the Inspector on the updated

proposals for Doncaster’s Local Plan.

Marr Parish Meeting agreed that its response could be better conveyed through a written submission. We would like to congratulate the Council on their in-depth analysis and acknowledge the work and effort of DMBC staff in collating these reports, with special recognition to the Planning Department for their time and effort in collating these reports. We would also like to pass on our personal thanks to the Planning Officers for their assistance in explaining how the proposals within the Local Plan may affect our Parish. This was very much appreciated and their proactive response encouraged a belief

that our resident’s views were important and would be carefully considered.

We appreciate the extended deadline for contributions, as once again, time scheduling of the consultation process has been conducted during holiday periods. However, due to the vast number of reports that have only recently been made available, together with the very short consultation period, this has meant it has been an onerous task for the Parish to assimilate and review the information from the numerous and lengthy documents in order to form its opinion and give credible feedback. We would like to suggest and reiterate once again, that for future consultations, Reports are made publically available when they are completed in a timelier manner rather than, in this instance, all reports generated over the two years being released all at once. This would greatly assist local Parishes.

The Joint Rural Parishes are to submit a more detailed feedback on the Local Plan on our behalf, all of which Marr Parish Meeting fully supports and endorses.

1. Greenbelt Land

Marr Parish Meeting note the overwhelming and very strong response to previous consultations

where over 75% of the responses supported “The Borough’s overall housing and employment

needs should be met outside the Green Belt as far as possible so as to help protect the Green Belt”.

Marr Parish Meeting unanimously support this view and would like to see this strong opinion reflected in the Full Local Plan Draft.

We further support previous Consultation Feedback: there were a significant number of responders who supported the use of Brown Field sites in preference to Green Belt for

employment and development. This mirrors our very strong opinion, that it is crucial that the Green Belt bands between Doncaster, Wakefield, Barnsley and Rotherham are not eroded. It is our very strong opinion that Brownfield and existing redundant sites are prioritised over Greenbelt for development.

Based on the Greenbelt reviews, Marr Parish are still unclear which sites /if any are to be proposed for development for new homes or job creation, or which sites are being considered, with a view to be taken out of Greenbelt. Interactive Maps have been provided, however they are unwieldy and not easily negotiated, feedback which we have already fed back to DMBC representatives. We believe more clarity is needed on these site locations.

We maintain that affordable housing is not only needed and must be delivered within the Local Plan, however we do not believe that the Rural Communities can deliver the supporting services that will be needed e.g. public transport, health and Employment support etc .Even if

development of this nature could be considered ‘very special circumstances’ under Greenbelt

policies, we do not believe affordable housing in these locations could ever be sustainable. Affordable housing needs can only be realistically met within urban locations. We would again reiterate that our rural community maintains its view - that development in the small villages and hamlets must be proportionate, sympathetic and in keeping with their character to maintain our rural identities.

Marr Parish strongly supports and would welcome the new proposed planning policies, where growth is directed to larger and more sustainable settlements and also those policies which seek to continually protect our rural communities and identities. Marr Parish fully supported being

designated as a ‘Smaller Greenbelt Village’ with ‘no Identified Development Limits’ in the last 2018

consultation for the Local Plan. However, having consulted with communities to change their designation, which gained overwhelming support, DMBC have now withdrawn their intention and it will now no longer apply. Marr Parish maintains, that having completed a full review of the Greenbelt, with the sole purpose for this to act as a catalyst for changes to the Greenbelt for

Doncaster, DMBC then proposed a change to designate of some of the villages to ‘Smaller

Greenbelt Villages’. However, although several other changes to the Greenbelt are now to be

adopted within the Local Plan, the designation to ‘Smaller Greenbelt Villages‘ has now been

abandoned. With overwhelming support in favour of these new designations, Marr Parish advocate for this to be reinstated in the final version of the Local Plan.

We maintain, Greenbelt and Agricultural land are a very precious resource which must be protected. Marr Parish continues to object to proposals for additional Greenbelt land to be ‘safeguarded’. We do not believe that development necessitates the use of Greenbelt land but no more land should be taken out of Greenbelt than is vital. Land that will not be used for

development ‘over the life of the plan’, does not in our opinion mean that Safeguard land can be considered vital and as such, it cannot be considered ‘very special circumstances’. We strongly

object to Greenbelt land being safeguarded and insist that it should remain Green Belt Land within the Local Plan.

2. Housing Stock

For several years, Doncaster has suffered from an oversupplied property market and a reducing volume of Homebuyers in a financial position to purchase.

Marr Parish continues to recognise and acknowledge that if Doncaster is to flourish there could be a need for additional, sustainable housing stock but this must not be delivered “at all costs” or to the detriment of existing Rural Communities nor at the expense of Green Belt Land.

However, as Doncaster has approx. 4,281 vacant houses around the Borough, Marr Parish Meeting would urge DMBC to use The National Policy Framework which places the obligation on

Local Authorities with “compulsory purchase powers” to “bring back into residential use” vacant

houses and disused buildings. Historically, DMBC have been reticent to purse this obligation. Subsequently, for the new Plan to be considered ‘effective and sound’ this must now be considered a priority within the new emerging Local Plan with a commitment from DMBC and a transparent Policy for Doncaster.

We further believe that at 31% (as a minimum) of the 13,800 new homes that the “Homes and Settlements” document proposes, that this would deliver much needed Affordable/Social homes

in the Borough without the need to take land out of Green Belt to build even more new homes when such properties currently exist. We urge DMBC to ascertain how much housing stock is currently vacant within the Borough before making a commitment to significant investment in developing new housing stock to meet any potential future demands.

We advocate that this approach fully aligns to and delivers Affordable/Starter homes with

sustainability and in keeping with DMBC’s green policies and obligations.

Marr Parish note that in the draft Homes and Settlements proposal, the current total households for the Borough totals 130,165 and the draft still proposes an additional 13,800 new homes over the next 15 years.

DMBC’s latest proposals remain at 920 new dwellings per year, 585 to accommodate population rise within the borough and an additional 335 allocated for economic growth across the borough. DMBC project that 15,640 new dwellings will be required to meet demand over a 17 year period between 2017 – 2035.

In previous consultations we raised concerns over the targeted increase and the number of projected new dwellings within the draft Local Plan. We understand the rationale and the basis on which this target has been established, however, our concerns still remain the same since this still constitutes an increase of +10% on the total available housing stock across the borough, a borough which has one of the worst performing housing markets in the UK. Marr Parish agree with DMBC’s proposal to objectively evaluate and measure the number of new jobs and homes annually. We believe, plan delivery means they are co-dependant on one another and this must be implemented to ensure they achieve an equally balanced delivery for economic growth.

Marr Parish Meeting welcome DMBC’s aspirations to be a “greener” Doncaster and that the Draft Proposal will ensure that developers set aside 10% of land for “green spaces”. We believe that this

could have a positive influence on reducing obesity and improving health and wellbeing for the whole community.

In every community, Parks and green spaces are important amenities, however due to restricted budgets DMBC have stated over the last few years that they have little/ no funding available to provide new or replacement play equipment. Instead play equipment has had to be sourced through grant funding applications, as is the case in point with Marr Park. We are not aware of

  • Local Plan Site Selection Methodology

    Local Plan Site Selection Methodology

    7.0 Stage 5: Flood Risk Sequential & Exceptions Test (if required) & Green Belt What does the National Planning Policy Framework say about Flood Risk for Local Plans? Para. 99 – states that Local Plans should take account of climate change over the long term, including flood risk, and plan so that development avoids increased vulnerability to impacts arising from climate change, but where development is brought forward in vulnerable areas ensure the risks are managed. Para. 100 - Inappropriate development in areas at risk of flooding should be avoided by directing development away from areas at highest risk, but where development is necessary, making it safe without increasing flood risk elsewhere. Local Plans should be supported by Strategic Flood Risk Assessment and develop policies to manage flood risk from all sources, taking account of advice from the Environment Agency and other relevant flood risk management bodies, such as lead local flood authorities and internal drainage boards. Local Plans should apply a sequential, risk-based approach to the location of development to avoid where possible flood risk to people and property and manage any residual risk, taking account of the impacts of climate change, by: ● applying the Sequential Test; ● if necessary, applying the Exception Test; Para. 101 - The aim of the Sequential Test is to steer new development to areas with the lowest probability of flooding. Development should not be allocated if there are reasonably available sites appropriate for the proposed development in areas with a lower probability of flooding. The Strategic Flood Risk Assessment will provide the basis for applying this test.

But by the same token, these are exciting times for us. No-one has any doubt that in 2029 the Church of England in South Yorkshire and the East Riding will look very different from the way it is now — but equally no one is yet very clear about the shape it will take. Our plan is an ambitious one and we are hungry for change. We are asking tough questions: Will the whole people of God be mobilised for the whole mission of God? What will morale be like, among key lay and ordained leaders? Will attendance figures be in decline or growing? Will there be more stipendiary incumbents or fewer? Will there be more congregations or fewer? Will we raise up a dynamic community of ‘Lights for Christ’? Will we grow a praying community of 2025 by 2025? These questions were already pressing ones for us before the present pandemic: they will surely be even more urgent for us now.
