  • Greater Exeter Strategic Plan Issues Report Summary of Responses
    Greater Exeter Strategic Plan Issues Report Summary of Responses Introduction The councils of East Devon, Exeter, Mid Devon and Teignbridge consulted on an “Issues” paper in February 2017 designed to stimulate debate early in the process of preparing the Greater Exeter Strategic Plan. The questions were deliberately broad and non-specific, and therefore the comments received have inevitably been wide ranging. It is therefore appropriate to publish a reasonably full summary of the responses, rather than to attempt to bring them all together into a more general summary which could lose some of the finer points raised. The full responses can be found at https://www.gesp.org.uk/consultations/issues/ It is not currently possible to provide a full response to each comment at this stage, in advance of the publication of the draft plan. This summary is therefore an interim one, pending further work on the plan. However, the comments will be taken into account during the preparation of the draft GESP and a fuller response provided with the draft’s publication. Therefore, any point made has been noted and is being actively considered, even in the absence of a specific comment. A revised summary will be published with a fuller set of notes/responses alongside the draft GESP. In the meantime, where a technical comment can be made which does not prejudge the contents of the draft plan this is provided below in the “notes” column. You said Organisation/Individual Notes 1 Do you have any comments on the content of the Greater Exeter Strategic Plan and its relationship with other plans?

(Fields between Winslade Park and lane from Kenniford Cross to Clyst St George) Clyst St Mary. The Devon Countryside Access Forum (DCAF) is a local access forum under the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 (CRoW Act). Its statutory remit is to give independent advice “as to the improvement of public access to land in the area for the purposes of open-air recreation and the enjoyment of the area…” The DCAF currently has fifteen members, appointed by Devon County Council, who represent the interests of landowners/managers, access users and other relevant areas of expertise such as conservation and tourism. The timing of this consultation did not coincide with a meeting of the Devon Countryside Access Forum. The comments are in accordance with advice previously provided by the Forum and the response will be on the agenda for formal approval at the next meeting on 9 October. The DCAF supports in principle this section of the aspirational Clyst Valley Trail. A multi- use route is welcomed and will provide new sustainable transport links and recreational access opportunities for walkers, dog walkers, cyclists, disabled users and horse riders. The link to the Exe Estuary Trail and potentially northwards, in time, to Killerton will deliver an important and very popular trail.

    HIW/16/9 Public Rights of Way Committee 24 November 2016 Definitive Map Review 2015 - 2016 Parishes of Clyst St Mary and Sowton administered as Bishops Clyst Report of the Chief Officer for Highways, Infrastructure Development and Waste Please note that the following recommendation is subject to consideration and determination by the Committee before taking effect. Recommendation: It is recommended an Order be made to add a Public Footpath in Sowton Parish between points A-B-C-D-E-B and F-G as shown on plan HCW/PROW/16/12v2. 1. Summary The report examines the Definitive Map Review for the Parishes of Clyst St Mary and Sowton, which are administered as Bishops Clyst, in East Devon District. 2. Background/Introduction The original survey, under s. 27 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, revealed three footpaths and no bridleways in Clyst St Mary, and six footpaths and no bridleways in Sowton, which were recorded on the Definitive Map and Statement, St Thomas Rural District with the relevant date of 1 June 1957. The review of the Definitive Map, under s. 33 of the 1949 Act, which commenced in the 1970s, but was never completed, produced no proposals for change to the map in the parishes. The Limited Special Review of Roads Used as Public Paths (RUPPS), also carried out in the 1970s, did not affect these parishes. The following orders have been made and confirmed: County of Devon Stopping up Order Clyst St Mary Part of FP1 Town and Country Planning Act 1964.

    Clyst St George Parish Design Statement Model Cottages Clyst St George Village Prepared by the Neighbourhood Plan Steering Committee. Adopted by the Parish Council March 2018 CLYST ST GEORGE PARISH DESIGN STATEMENT Introduction Message from the Parish Council Good design is indivisible from good planning and should contribute positively to making places better for people. The government’s objective for the planning system is to promote good design that ensures attractive, usable and durable places. This is a key element in achieving sustainable development which should be carried out so that it is harmonious and makes a positive contribution to the local environment. It provides a context for new development based upon local character or sense of place. It helps to manage change at whatever scale it occurs.
