    First Urgent Update Report Item 24 Church Farm, Ulcombe Hill, Ulcombe, Kent 17/503284 Pages 167-187 Additional representation/information submitted Ulcombe Parish Council Ulcombe Parish Council have submitted a Landscape and Visual Impact rebuttal produced by Harper Landscape Architecture (referred to as HLA). This consists of the following documents : Rebuttal dated October 2017 Executive Summary of Rebuttal dated October 2017 Appendix 1 – HAD and additional HLA Viewpoints Appendix 2 – Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment Methodology Appendix 3 – Table of LVIA Judgements Appendix 4 – Landscape Assessment of Kent October 2004 Appendix 5 – Maidstone Landscape Character Assessment 2012 Appendix 6 – Maidstone Borough Wide Local Plan 2017 Appendix 7 – Listed building designations Appendix 8 – Critique of DHA and Graham J Field drawings Appendix 9 – LI Photography Advice Note It is understood that these documents have been submitted to Members as lobbying material. Officer Response The submitted information has been considered by Officer’s and the Landscape Officer. In summary the information seeks to question the methodology used by DHA (the applicant’s agent) and draws differing conclusions regarding the impact of the proposed development. Firstly regarding the methodology, it should be acknowledged that the Guidelines for Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment (GLVIA), 3rd Edition, 2013 is as the title suggests, guidelines and does not need to be strictly followed in producing a landscape and visual appraisal. It is considered by Officer’s that the document generally conforms with the guidelines and although lacking in information relating to the impact on the adjoining landscape area and not taking into consideration the Maidstone Landscape Capacity Study : Sensitivity Assessment.

'I paid a visit and was enthused by the concept of the gallery and the warmth of the staff and volunteers and the fact that the student had actually sold some of his work. 'When I was teaching full time it was often exhausting. Producing my own work felt a bit like a busman's holiday. On my semi-retirement my partner Sue could see the potential advantage of me painting rather than getting under her feet and was full of enthusiasm and encouragement for the idea, so I signed up. 'Working to deadlines has been very good for me. I doubt I would have rediscovered my enthusiasm for painting without Nucleus. The concept of the gallery is inspirational to many local artists and something that has been missing from Maidstone for a long time.
