Track Changed’ Version of Proposed Draft Changes to Core Strategy Policy Text Appendix 4: ‘Track Changed’ Version of Proposed Draft Changes to Core Strategy Policy Text August 2014 1 Foreword: Derby is a special place; a historic and industrial city on the doorstep of one of the UK’s most visited and picturesque national parks, the Peak District. It’s a city which is passionate about progress and continues to grow, punching above its weight in terms of its contribution to the UK economy. A city that is home to prestigious global brands such as Rolls- Royce, Bombardier and with close links to Toyota, with a highly skilled workforce specialising in the manufacture of planes, trains and automobiles. A city with excellent road and rail links close to a rapidly expanding regional airport. Derby is an attractive city where people want to live and work and where people come to shop, to be entertained and to spend their leisure time. Derby is a city which, despite its rapid growth, retains its heritage and has valued areas of green space and high quality townscape; a city that has a World Heritage Site at its heart. The challenge for the future is to meet the demands for economic prosperity while retaining the qualities that make Derby such a special place. We need to solve existing and emerging problems and to establish Derby as a sustainable city fit for the 21st century. Our best chance to meet these existing and future challenges and keep Derby as a place we can all be proud of, is to plan for them. Thies draft version of the Core Strategy sets out how Derby City Council intends to meet these challenges up to 2028. It will not be easy, the future will demand that we make things happen in the right way and we may have to adjust our plans in response to changing times and world events. This version of the Core Strategy is the first full draft to be publishedThis consultation. It provides an opportunity for people to comment on whether the Plan is legally compliant and whether it has been prepared in a sound manner, before it is submitted to the Secretary of State to be ‘Examined’ by an independent Planning Inspector. Once the Plan has been found to be prepared in a ‘sound’ manner and to be legally compliant, it will be adopted by the Council and will be used to shape the future of Derby. on its content and make any suggestions about how it could be improved or amended. [INSERT SIGNATURE HERE] Councillor Martin Rawson 2 About this Consultation: Derby City Council, Amber Valley Borough Council and South Derbyshire District Council make up the Derby Housing Market Area (HMA). These authorities have been preparing separate but aligned Core Strategies for a number of years, now referred to as Local Plans under the 2012 planning regulations. This document is the ‘Pre-Submission’ version of the Core Strategy and is the result of all of the previous consultations. The emerging document has been subject to a number of changes reflecting many of the issues highlighted by stakeholders and consultees. This is the version of the Plan that the Council intends to submit to the Secretary of State for Examination by an independent Planning Inspector. This consultation provides stakeholders and consultees an opportunity to comment on the legality and ‘soundness’1 of the Plan. Representations received through this consultation will be passed onto the Planning Inspector when the Plan is submitted, although there will be scope for some further ‘minor amendments’2 to be made, if required, before formal submission. This consultation is taking place in accordance with rRegulation 198 of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012. Regulation 19 states that before submitting a Local Plan to the Secretary of State under section 202 of the Act, the local planning authority must: Under this Regulation, the local authority must: - notify specific consultation bodies or persons the local planning authority consider may have an interest in the subject of the proposed plan, other general consultation bodies the local planning authority consider appropriate and such residents or other persons carrying on business in the Borough who the local planning authority consider it appropriate to invite representations, and; - (a) make a copy of each of the proposed submission documents and statement of the representations procedure available in accordance with regulation 35, and -(b) ensure that a statement of the representations procedure and a statement of the fact that the proposed submission documents are available for inspection and of the places and times at which they can be inspected, is sent to each of the general consultation bodies and each of the specific consultation bodies invited to make representations under regulation 18(1) invite each of them to make representations to the local planning authority about what the local plan ought to contain. In preparing the Local Plan, Regulation 18 also requires that the local planning authority must take into account any representation made to them in response to the invitations made. Information about how to respond to the consultation is provided overleaf. 1 Further information about ‘soundness’ can be found on the Planning Advisory Service (PAS) website, http://www.pas.gov.uk/local-planning/-/journal_content/56/332612/15045/ARTICLE#Soundness_checklist 2 Minor amendments include minor alterations to text that do not change the thrust of a policy or the way which it could be interpreted. This includes for example, correction of typographical and grammatical errors. 3 Planning At this stage in the process, Wwe are only allowed to ask two specific issuesquestions, rather than the wider ranging questionsconsultations that we have asked in previous consultationscarried out in the past. The questions are set out below: Is the Plan Legal? Does our plan accord with the legal requirements of section 20(5) (a) of the Planning and compulsory Purchase Act 2004. You may wish to consider: Whether it is in the our Local Development Scheme (LDS) Whether community consultation was carried out in accordance with our Statement of Community Involvement (SCI). Does the document should comply with the Town and County Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012? Whether the document has regard to national policy Whether the appropriate notifications have been made Whether a Sustainability Appraisal has been done and made public Whether the Strategy has regard to The Derby Plan Whether the requirements of the Duty to Co-operate have been met. Is the Plan Sound? To meet the Test of Soundness, we are asking you if you consider that the Core Strategy has been: Positively Prepared. Have we objectively assessed the need for homes, jobs, services and infrastructure and these have been delivered sustainably. Justified. Have we based the Plan on a robust and credible evidence base? Effective. Will the plan deliver what it sets out to? Consistent with national policy. Do you consider that our Core Strategy accords with the National Planning Policy Framework and other policies or includes clear and convincing reasons for doing something different? Once formally submitted, an independent Planning Inspector will be appointed who will check to see if the Plan has been prepared in accordance with the Duty to Cooperate (DtC), legal and procedural requirements and whether it has been formulated in a ‘sound’ manner. Once the Inspector has reported on the Plan it is hoped that the Core Strategy will be adopted by the City Council in 2015. Under the previous regulations, local authorities were required to produce a Core Strategy which settings out a spatial strategy and key planning policies for development. As the Derby HMA authorities have been working on producing Core Strategies for some time, it is intended that the new Local Plan for Derby City will be produced in two parts. This document is the Core Strategy, which will comprise Part 1 of the new Local Plan for Derby City. It will be followed by a Site Allocations and Development Management document, which will comprise ‘Part 2’ of the new Local Plan and will allocate non-strategic development sites and include detailed policies on a range of issues. 4 Together with Tthe combined scale of growth strategic growth sites allocated in Derby’s the Core Strategy, , the site allocations to be made in the Local Plan Part 2 and sites identified by Amber Valley Borough Council and South Derbyshire District Council will meet the full, objectively assessed needs for market and affordable housing and employment land in the City, based on shared evidence produced for these requirements for the Derby Housing Market Area up to 2028. This is the first stage of formal consultation and will be conducted for a set period of 6six weeks. Once representations on this version of the Plan have been fully considered, the Plan will be published for the first stage of formal consultation in spring 2014, before being formally submitted to the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government (SoS). This is likely to happen in summer 2014. Once formally submitted, The SoS will arrange for the Plan to be formally examined by an independent a Pplanning Inspector will be appointed who will check to see if the Plan has been prepared in accordance with the Duty to Cooperate (DtC), legal and procedural requirements and whether it has been formulated in a ‘sound’ manner. Once the Inspector has reported on the Plan it is hoped that the Core Strategy will be adopted by the City Council in 2015.by the end of 2014. Further information on document production timescales will be set out in the Council’s Local Development Scheme (LDS) which will be revised in early 2014.

The City does not yet have a reputation as a leisure or business tourism destination and there is a significant opportunity for growth. To improve as a destination the city must promote a unique Derby identity and support developments that improve the visitor experience. The demise of the RDA’s and no apparent clarity on government funding for tourism has created a great deal of uncertainty around how the visitor economy will be managed going forward. However, with a new national government policy on tourism and a new marketing strategy from VisitEngland, together with the introduction of a new ‘Derby Plan’, the time is right to identify the best opportunity for Derby and tie it into the wider plans to take full benefit of opportunities as they emerge.
