INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND 1.01 These comments are submitted on behalf of KCS Development, a residential site promotion company seeking the allocation land of south of Harewood Road, Collingham (Site 1293) in the Leeds Site Allocations DPD (SAP) for 85 no. homes with extensive open space and buffer landscaping. 1.02 KCS Development is a Member of a consortium of housebuilders (the Collingham Consortium) and site promoters that is proposing a comprehensive masterplan for future housing development in Collingham. The KCS site comprises one of 4 allocations that are proposed in the settlement that together will deliver: 450 new homes, thus reflecting Collingham’s role as one of the larger settlements in the Outer North East Housing Market Characteristic Area (HMCA), with a good range of shops and services and public transport services; A site for a new primary school, thus providing the opportunity for education facilities within Collingham to be substantially improved, to the benefit of existing and future residents; and A new access route between Harewood Road and the A58 Leeds Road, which would help to reduce traffic through Collingham Local Centre. 1.03 KCS Development is also a member of a consortium of housebuilders and site promoters (the ONE Consortium) that is proposing an alternative strategy to meeting housing needs in the ONE HMCA than that proposed by the Council.

  • Leeds Civic Trust As a Contribution to Discussions Emerging from the Leeds City Centre Vision Conference (Jan 2008)
    Linking the Station to the City - crossing the Loop & more What can we do with the Loop around the Station and City Square? This report has been prepared by the Leeds Civic Trust as a contribution to discussions emerging from the Leeds City Centre Vision Conference (Jan 2008). November 2008 Current Problems at City Square & the Rail Station 1 2 3 Arrowheads on plan above show photo numbers 9 6 8 4 2 7 5 A Proposed New Route for the Loop A Big Idea at the City Centre Vision conference was to move the Loop out of City Square to provide stronger links between the rail station and the shopping zone. However, this would require expensive tunnels under the Square or station, bridges west of the station (impacting on Holbeck Urban Village) or a new route west of the railway. The last (shown on the plan on the left) would duplicate the role of the Inner Ring Road and not perform the function of an inner distributor. Not advocated: relocated Loop in red A More Practical Solution? We have looked at two other questions to generate approaches which are more achievable: · how can the impact of the Loop on City Square be reduced? · how can pedestrian links between the station and the city centre be enhanced? We suggest relocating sections of the Loop in order to create a simpler route through the area, ensuring that motorists have fewer choices as to the way they can go and pedestrian crossings can be shortened. 1 2 3 1 2 3 City Square: fewer lanes and Bishopgate St: new traffic-free space Swinegate: Loop diverted to turning options by closing short-cut to Neville St Sovereign St and Neville St 3 What is the problem? There has been long-standing concern about the sense of arrival at Leeds City Station.

  • Sir Norman Foster
    The Pritzker Architecture Prize 1999 SIR NORMAN FOSTER The Pritzker Architecture Prize was established by The Hyatt Foundation in 1979 to honor annually a living architect whose built work demonstrates a combination of those qualities of talent, vision and commitment which has produced consistent and significant contributions to humanity and the built environment through the art of architecture. An international panel of jurors reviews nominations from all nations, selecting one living architect each year. Seven Laureates have been chosen from the United States, and the year 1998 marked the fourteenth to be chosen from other countries around the world. The bronze medallion presented to each Laureate is based on designs of Louis Sullivan, famed Chicago architect generally acknowledged as the father of the skyscraper. Shown on the cover is one side with the name of the prize and space in the center for the Laureate's name. On the reverse, shown above, three words are inscribed, “firmness, commodity and delight,” The Latin words, “firmitas, utilitas, venustas” were originally set down nearly 2000 years ago by Marcus Vitruvius in his Ten Books on Architecturededicated to the Roman Emperor Augustus. In 1624, when Henry Wotton was England's first Ambassador to Venice, he translated the words for his work, The Elements of Architecture, to read: “The end is to build well. Well building hath three conditions: commodity, firmness and delight.” THE PRITZKER ARCHITECTURE PRIZE 1999 PRESENTED TO SIR NORMAN FOSTER Photo by Andrew Ward SPONSORED BY THE HYATT FOUNDATION 1 THE JURY CHAIRMAN J.

Are the selected sites justified having regard to the site selection methodology and process, paying particular attention to the deliverability of the allocated sites? 1.1. Yes. The Council’s response to Matter 6 details the overall site assessment and selection process used for allocation of sites in the Plan.
