From the study that was carried out a number of key issues were identified which needed to be addressed under four main objectives, these are; • Develop and improve neighbourhood management approaches in areas with concentrations of student households. • Provide better accommodation for students in appropriate locations • Address the need for resident parking schemes in Ardwick and Hulme. • Take all available steps to prevent further encroachment of students lets into areas characterised by traditional family housing. 1.3 The need to develop a better understanding of the issues and options to shape future action in respect of student housing and the management of areas with high number of students was identified in the development of the South Manchester Strategic Regeneration Framework (SRF) 1.4 Approval was also sought at Executive to an interim Planning policy for development control purposes in relation to proposed student accommodation 2.0 Progress to Date 2.1 Progress on the Student Strategy Implementation Plan is detailed on the updated plan which is attached as Appendix 1. 2.2 Significant progress has been made on each of the four main objectives particularly in the following areas; 36 Manchester City Council Item 8 Communities and Neighbourhoods Overview and Scrutiny Committee 22 June 2010 Objective 1 - Develop and improve neighbourhood management approaches in areas with concentrations of student households. A more coordinated approach in the delivery of frontline services is now taken with resources being deployed more flexibly around the student calendar particularly when students are coming to and leaving the city. This is especially evident in the management of waste and recycling services and has resulted in significant environmental improvements. Similarly noise nuisance issues are now dealt with in a more coordinated way across a number of agencies and council departments. This work has been supported by the Head of Security from Manchester Metropolitan University and has been underpinned by the implementation of the Neighbourhood Focus Strategy with which it recognises its central themes. This work will be further enhanced by the filling of the Off Campus manager position with effect from 28th June who once in post will be working closely with community and Student unions’ representatives to help minimise the impact of a large student population in the city. The newly established Private Sector Housing team in the south of the city together with partners are currently developing a detailed and proactive plan for the area to tackle the underlying private sector management issues. This plan of enforcement will include licensing activities. In the meantime the team are continuing to enforce property and management standards for cases on a more reactive basis. The introduction of a new governance structure to manage crime and disorder issues also ensures that resources are deployed in a more effective manner to address communities’ concerns. Objective 2 - Provide better accommodation for students in appropriate locations. Recently the Council has received an increasing number of enquiries from developers regarding proposals for purpose built student accommodation in the City. This has led to the Council undertaking a study to look at supply and demand for this type of development. This has shown that there is currently a potential oversupply of student bed-spaces in purpose built accommodation in the planning pipeline, when matched against demand from both the projected growth in student numbers to 2014/15 and latent demand from students living in the general rented sector. The Council’s policy response to this will be brought forward through the Local Development Framework Core Strategy. The draft policy approach on Purpose Built Student Accommodation is being amended and will be brought to Executive in July, before being consulted on (alongside a number of other draft Core Strategy policies) in August 2010. The key changes to the policy since it was approved by Members as an interim planning policy in October 37 Manchester City Council Item 8 Communities and Neighbourhoods Overview and Scrutiny Committee 22 June 2010 2009 are to state that priority will be given to schemes which are to be progressed in partnership with the universities and which also clearly meet the City Council’s regeneration priorities and that applicants/developers must demonstrate to the Council that their proposals are deliverable. Objective 3 - Address the need for resident parking schemes in Ardwick and Hulme. Work has progressed on the extension of resident parking schemes in the areas most affected by visitor and commuter parking. In Ardwick a new scheme has been introduced in the Groves neighbourhood (adjacent to Hathersage Road) and a further scheme is being implemented in the Grove Village area where consultation will commence in July 2010. In Hulme two further phases of residents parking will be implemented in summer 2010. In addition MMU will fund the implementation of a scheme which will cover central Hulme around the Birley Fields Community Campus areas. Objective 4 - Take all available steps to prevent further encroachment of students lets into areas characterised by traditional family housing. The City Council has a number of powers to support neighbourhoods which are predominantly family housing. The principal control is through the Use Class Order. Following consultation with local authorities on how to deal with high concentrations of Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs), which the City Council has responded to, the Government amended planning legislation on 6th April to introduce a specific definition of a HMO into the Planning Use Classes Order. This means that planning permission is now needed for a change of use from a Class C3 dwelling house to a C4 HMO. The vast majority of privately rented student houseshares fall within Class C4 therefore the Council can now control further encroachment of student houseshares into housing

  • Hulme, Moss Side and Rusholme Neighbourhood Mosaic Profile
    Hulme, Moss Side and Rusholme Neighbourhood Mosaic Profile Summary • There are just over 21,300 households in the Hulme, Moss Side and Rusholme Neighbourhood. • The neighbourhood contains a range of different household types clustered within different parts of the area. Moss Side is dominated by relatively deprived, transient single people renting low cost accommodation whereas Hulme and Rusholme wards contain larger concentrations of relatively affluent young people and students. • Over 60% of households in Moss Side contain people whose social circumstances suggest that they may need high or very high levels of support to help them manage their own health and prevent them becoming high users of acute healthcare services in the future. However, the proportion of households in the other parts of the neighbourhood estimated to require this levels of support is much lower. This reflects the distribution of different types of household within the locality as described above. Introduction This profile provides more detailed information about the people who live in different parts of the neighbourhood. It draws heavily on the insights that can be gained from the Mosaic population segmentation tool. What is Mosaic? Mosaic is a population segmentation tool that uses a range of data and analytical methods to provide insights into the lifestyles and behaviours of the public in order to help make more informed decisions. Over 850 million pieces of information across 450 different types of data are condensed using the latest analytical techniques to identify 15 summary groups and 66 detailed types that are easy to interpret and understand. Mosaic’s consistent segmentation can also provide a ‘common currency’ across partners within the city.

    Case Study: DataGM Type: Website Organisation(s): GM local authorities, Open Data Manchester, GMFRS Tags: open data, process, standards, website This was the earliest attempt in Greater Manchester to create a simple datastore that would hold important data from across the region, focussing on government transparency and providing better public services. The result was a highly functional datastore with which brought together data from a wider range of data publishers, and included a total of 371 datasets. It was ultimately not successful in creating a lasting basis for open data cooperation and access in Greater Manchester. However, it provides interesting lessons on how to proceed with future projects. Background DataGM was launched in February 2011, inspired by successful projects in North American cities, such as Track DC (now Open Data DC) in Washington, D.C. and Baltimore City Stats (now Open Baltimore). It was conceived as a one-stop-shop for key datasets on all aspects of city life. The programme emerged through a partnership between Trafford Council and the digital culture agency Future Everything. This began in 2009 when the Manchester Innovation Fund supported Future Everything to build open data innovation architecture in Greater Manchester, funded by NESTA, Manchester Council and the North West Regional Development Agency (now closed). Future Everything and Trafford Council in turn partnered with a wide range of data publishing organisations. These included local authority partners, as well as Greater Manchester Policy, Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service, Greater Manchester Passenger Transport Executive (now Transport for Greater Manchester), and the North West Strategic Health Authority.

It was therefore requested that the Head of Planning bring forward a report to the next available committee addressing the above concerns and proposing potential reasons for refusal. For clarification as a result of the addition of late representations to the 21 st August 2008 Committee changes have been made to conditions set out towards the end of this report.
