It is the means by which Maldon District Council will deliver sustainable development across the Maldon District and provides a spatial strategy for the delivery of the required future employment, homes, retail, community facilities and infrastructure provision. It has a number of component parts which sit alongside the spatial strategy. These include development management policies and strategic site allocations. 1.2 The core responsibility of the LDP is to respond to local ambitions, aspirations and priorities for the District over the plan period from 2014 to 2029. The LDP has been developed following extensive consultation and dialogue with a wide range of individuals, organisations and interest groups. Consultation began in 2006 as part of the Local Development Framework Core Strategy process. Whilst the Council has decided not to pursue a Local Development Framework Core Strategy, the outcomes of these consultation stages have been important in developing the spatial vision and strategy and development management policies within the LDP. In addition, specialist studies and on-going strategies have together built a comprehensive evidence base with a strong local focus. 1.3 The LDP sets out the scale and distribution of future development and the infrastructure needed to provide it. The Plan sets out the following: • The Council’s spatial vision and objectives for the District’s development over the plan period • Policies to ensure that development delivers high quality, sustainable homes, drives the quality of design and maintains our high quality built and natural environment • The future distribution for housing growth and requirements for affordable housing • Policies to build a strong, competitive economy and the future distribution for new employment land space and thus new jobs • Policies to maintain and enhance the vibrancy and vitality of our towns and villages; and • Policies to support a sustainable transport and road infrastructure network 1.4 The LDP covers the whole of the Maldon District Council authority area. This equates to an area of 36,000 hectares which includes 70 miles of coastline. 1.5 The Local Development Scheme (LDS) – updated in 2017 - provides details of the Local Development Documents which the Council intends to produce, including the scope of the documentation and timetable for production. 1.6 The Plan has been structured in eight key sections: 1) Introduction and Context – including the legal status and scope of the Plan and the process of plan preparation 2) Spatial Vision and Development Strategy – sets out the vision and objectives of the document, the spatial development strategy, the distribution of growth as well as the place shaping and sustainable development policies. This section also includes policies to shape future strategic development in Maldon, Heybridge, Burnham-on- Crouch and the rural areas of the District 2 INTRODUCTION AND CONTEXT 3) Design and Climate Change – sets out the design standards as well as the climate change and heritage policies 4) Economic Prosperity – includes policies which will help to create a more competitive and stronger economy 5) Housing – sets out the housing policies and aims to help create a wide choice of high quality affordable and market homes 6) Natural, Environment and Green Infrastructure – includes measures which will protect and enhance the natural environment and green spaces 7) Transport and Access – sets out sustainable transport policies and accessibility requirements; and 8) Implementation and Monitoring – sets out the infrastructure policies and how the plan will be implemented and monitored Legal Status and Scope of the Local Development Plan 1.7 The LDP has been prepared under the legislative provision of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 (HM Government, 2004) and the Localism Act 2011 (HM Government, 2011b). It has also been prepared using the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 (HM Government, 2012). 1.8 Once the LDP is adopted it will replace the Maldon District Replacement Local Plan (MDC, 2005b) saved policies. The LDP, together with the Essex Replacement Minerals Local Plan (RMLP) and the Replacement Waste Local Plan (RWLP), will form the statutory adopted ‘Development Plan’ for the District. In compliance with national planning policy and legislation, planning decisions must be taken in accordance with the Development Plan. Proposed development that conflicts with the Development Plan will be refused unless other material considerations indicate otherwise. 1.9 The LDP is in compliance with national planning policy, currently set out in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) (DCLG, 2012a), Planning Policy for Traveller Sites (DCLG,2015) and National Policy Statements and Guidance (DCLG, various). The NPPF sets out a presumption in favour of sustainable development, which is the core aspect of national planning policy and the Local Development Plan. 1.10 In accordance with the ‘Duty to Co-operate’ (Localism Act, 2011) the Local Development Plan has been produced through close partnership working with neighbouring authorities and other relevant organisations to ensure that sub-regional and cross boundary planning issues have been fully considered and taken into account. 1.11 Previously, an adopted Development Plan Document (DPD) was required to conform to the policies set out in the East of England Plan which formed the adopted Regional Spatial Strategy for the East of England Region. However, the East of England Plan was formally revoked by the Secretary of State in January 2013, and therefore no longer forms part of the Development Plan for the District. 3 INTRODUCTION AND CONTEXT FIGURE 1 LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN SCOPE Preparation Process 1.12 Between 2010 and 2013 the Government made a number of reforms to the planning system to make it less complex and more accessible. In 2006, the Council began work to develop and produce a Local Development Framework Core Strategy that would have set out the spatial strategy for the District. 1.13 However, in response to changes to the planning system, the Council took the decision in 2011 to develop a LDP that would not only set the spatial strategy but would also include strategic allocations and development management policies. The LDP has been informed by the consultation undertaken as part of the Local Development Framework Core Strategy and builds upon the local ambitions and priorities that have been expressed as part of this process. 1.14 Community engagement is vitally important to the plan preparation process and the Council has conducted extensive consultation and encouraged participation on issues relating to the future of the District, in accordance with the Council’s adopted Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) (MDC, 2007b). Two ‘Issues and Options’ consultation rounds were undertaken for the Local Development Framework Core Strategy in March 2007 (MDC, 2007c) and September 2007 (MDC, 2007d). In total, these two consultations received around 1,200 responses from members of the public, key stakeholders and other organisations. Stakeholder

Ref No. & Name Subject/section Comment 1 Allotment Allotments - Policy CS-5-Allotments. Whilst it is noted in that policy that the Allotments are a "valued Association Policy CS-5 and well used resource" it may be of help to state the current position regarding their use to reinforce that statement. 1. There are 267 plots of which five are currently vacant. The allotments are in Devonshire Road, Burnham on Crouch. 2..Plot holders 188, (some plot holders have more than one plot) 3.The Association bulk buy materials for the benefit of plot holders. 2 Anglian Water 5.8 It is suggested that the heading is amended to the following: Water recycling centres and underground sewerage/surface water infrastructure. This suggested amendment reflects Anglian Water terminology. Policy PI.19 In regards to funding sources, developers fund some of the improvements; however, it is important to remember that developers cannot be expected to help resolve current issues and existing problems. They can only fund what is needed in relation to the development proposal. It is suggested that the text be amended to reflect Anglian Water concerns. Ensure that developers demonstrate that there is or will be sufficient infrastructure capacity at Burnham On Crouch Water Recycling works Centre and within the underground sewage/surface water infrastructure in the town to meets all current and projected future necessary requirements. Reference is made to CIL in regards to funding; this should be removed as provision is made in line with the Water Industry Act.

    Essex Rail Strategy 2006-2011 and Beyond now we’removing informing, engaging and inspiring Foreword Essex Rail Strategy – 2006-2011 and Beyond ‘I cannot think of a higher priority for the County Council than for it to strive to achieve a first class highways and transportation system for all who live in, work in or visit the county of Essex. The challenges in front of us are enormous. Over 130,000 new homes are being proposed for Essex and its borders with surrounding authorities, the travel needs of which will have a direct impact on the transport network in Essex. All aspects of passenger transport will play a key role in delivering this vision. The County Council has therefore produced three daughter strategies to support the Local Transport Plan, focusing on how passenger transport will contribute towards a fully integrated transport network. The Road Passenger Transport, Bus Information and Rail Strategies outline the ways in which we intend to improve the lives of Essex people by addressing traffic growth, road congestion and improving public transport. They contain measures aimed at improving options for travel and access to services to develop a more effective transport network. To produce the strategies the County Council has consulted widely at regional, district and parish level, with key service providers, a wide range of user groups and the general public so that collectively they represent a tangible commitment by Essex County Council to make our County a better place to live and work and to support a decent public transport network. I am committed to delivering a transport system that meets the challenges we face in Essex and look forward to working in partnership with stakeholders to bring about the transformation we now need.’ Councillor Rodney L.

  • Capital Project Business Case Fairglen New Link Road
    Capital Project Business Case Fairglen New Link Road The template This document provides the business case template for projects seeking funding which is made available through the South East Local Enterprise Partnership. It is therefore designed to satisfy all SELEP governance processes, approvals by the Strategic Board, the Accountability Board and also the early requirements of the Independent Technical Evaluation process where applied. It is also designed to be applicable across all funding streams made available by Government through SELEP. It should be filled in by the scheme promoter – defined as the final beneficiary of funding. In most cases, this is the local authority; but in some cases the local authority acts as Accountable Body for a private sector final beneficiary. In those circumstances, the private sector beneficiary would complete this application and the SELEP team would be on hand, with local partners in the federated boards, to support the promoter. Please note that this template should be completed in accordance with the guidelines laid down in the HM Treasury’s Green Book. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-green-book- appraisal-and-evaluation-in-central-governent As described below, there are likely to be two phases of completion of this template. The first, an ‘outline business case’ stage, should see the promoter include as much information as would be appropriate for submission though SELEP to Government calls for projects where the amount awarded to the project is not yet known. If successful, the second stage of filling this template in would be informed by clarity around funding and would therefore require a fully completed business case, inclusive of the economic appraisal which is sought below.
