Principal/Primary Residence Housing Evidence The following evidence includes the Primary Residence Housing paper that was taken to the Steering Group Meeting on 7th February 2013. ITEM 3 Lynton and Lynmouth Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group Meeting 7 February 2013 Principal/Primary Residence Dwellings Report of the Neighbourhood Plan Project Team Purpose of Report: To update the Steering Group on the legal advice in relation to principal/primary residence housing. Recommendation: That the Steering Group is recommended to note the legal advice and confirm that the policy on Primary Residence Housing be included in the Lyn Plan. 1.0 Background 1.1 The Draft Lyn Plan makes it clear that the greatest priority for housing is the provision of affordable housing. However, the Plan recognises that to deliver affordable housing a scheme must be viable and this may require an element of cross subsidy from other housing. A key message from the community consultations is that it is understood that schemes need to be viable but they do not wish to see more homes built that are used as second and holiday homes. Such homes make little contribution to the sustainability of the local economy, community and the maintenance of local services. Given the physical constraints on development in the area there are limited opportunities for development and therefore every house that is provided needs to make its contribution to a more sustainable local community. 1.2 As a consequence the Lyn Plan includes Policy H3 on Primary Residence Housing. It is explained that this is “new housing which has to be used as the primary residence of the household living in it, but does not have the price controls that affordable housing does, or any local connection requirement”. The Policy is set out below to clearly show the circumstances when such housing may be permitted. 14 The Lyn Plan – Housing Evidence Principal/Primary Residence Housing Evidence H3 – Primary Residence Housing Proposals for primary residence housing will be supported, subject to the following criteria: • the proposals are necessary to provide cross subsidy for affordable housing or other development directly benefiting the community, on the same site or another site within the parish, • the proposals would either meet the housing needs of local people or bring greater balance and mixture to the local housing market and creating new opportunities for people to live and work here • the proposals are justified by an open book assessment of viability as defined by this Plan Open market housing without a restriction to ensure its occupation as a primary residence is not supported by this Plan. 1.3 Neighbourhood Plans are intended to provide innovative and bespoke approaches to deal with local issues. The concept of primary residence housing is just such an approach to tackle an identified local issue. There is good evidence and sustainability case to justify the policy, however, as it will restrict what would otherwise be an open market property, there is a need to ensure that the approach is lawful. 1.4 As a consequence a legal opinion from Counsel has been sought and this is attached to this report. The advice is clear. The proposed condition, which would be attached to any planning permission for primary residence housing, would be lawful and it would also be lawful to incorporate a policy within the development plan dealing with such circumstances. It would be necessary to explain

    Dartmoor Local Plan 2018-2036 Examination Matter 9: Site Allocations Wednesday 10th March 2021 Devon County Council Position Statement (Respondent ref no. 0049) Statement Prepared February 2021 Devon County Council County Hall Topsham Road Exeter Devon EX2 4QD Dartmoor Local Plan 2018-2036 Wednesday 10th March Examination Matter 9 Devon County Council 1. Introduction 1.1. Purpose of this Statement 1.1.1. This statement has been prepared to answer question 1 in relation to matter 9, issue 2 (Site Allocations: all) and question 1 in relation to matter 9, proposal 7.22 (2) (Warren Rd, Mary Tavy) for the Dartmoor Local Plan Review 2018-2036 Examination. These questions are: • Are the site allocations appropriate and justified in light of potential constraints, infrastructure requirements and adverse impacts? Are the sites viable and deliverable? • In light of the acknowledged lack of funding for a school on this site, would the site be likely to be developed within the Plan period and if not would its safeguarding be justified? 1.1.2. It should be noted that this statement does not cover all of the questions raised by the Planning Inspector in relation to matter 9 but focuses upon those issues in which Devon County Council (DCC) has a specific interest in order to fulfil its statutory responsibilities (i.e. as the Education Authority). 2. Are the site allocations appropriate and justified in lights of potential constraints, infrastructure requirements and adverse impacts? Are the sites viable and deliverable? 2.1.1. The site proposals in Ashburton (proposal 7.3 and 7.4) would allocate housing in an area where the local primary school has no capacity for the additional pupils generated by the developments.

  • Devon County Council Senior Council for Devon
    • Other things we think would help in other developments: - a longer timescale - the two year target was testing for all parties; - clarity and a higher national profile about national expectations of the model to be adopted; - older people did not recognise ‘Better Government for Older People’; - a wider range of older people can in theory be involved through organisations they choose to be members of, and there are disadvantages in trying to establish a new Devon County membership organisation, but it is difficult to marry individual and group membership in the same organisation. The Government’s citizen involvement agenda requires individual involvement; a resolution is needed over a period of experience. Council • Tendering (a legal requirement) and a contractual approach makes a difference to this type of work. • The tender was won by an independent consultancy from elsewhere in the County (Peter Fletcher Associates - PFA). We picked up traces of local resentment on the part of some voluntary sector interests which may have inhibited the development of the SCfD in certain areas. LinkAge Plus • We have gained much from the undoubted expertise of the contractors. However, we feel that separating expertise from development within the tendering process could have given greater value. • AGILE were given the status of co-commissioners of this work. We would recommend this. However, the development was a complex process which some older people who were involved found confusing, and in some cases there was a sense of loss as more older people became involved and distress when processes seemed beyond their control and the differences between the existing model of engagement and the new one Senior Council for became apparent.

  • Rockbeare Parish Council to Offer Our Views on the Revisions to the Electoral Divisions for Devon County Council
    ROCKBEARE PARISH COUNCIL The Review Officer (Devon), Local Government Boundary Commission for England, Layden House, Turnmill Street, LONDON, EC1M 5LG. 15 January 2015 Dear Sir, New Electoral Divisions for Devon I write on behalf of Rockbeare Parish Council to offer our views on the revisions to the electoral divisions for Devon County Council. Most people in the parish identify with Rockbeare and Marsh Green and go to Ottery St Mary to access local facilities such as shops, leisure centres, doctors etc. There are no shops in the parish, one post office shared with a vets and one well known public house which readily identifies itself with Rockbeare. Our area and its immediate surroundings are heavily influenced by the emergence of a major new development, Cranbrook, which has in a short time grown from nothing to having about 1000 houses in 30 months and continues to grow at that pace adding at least 50 new houses every month. Already there are more houses in Cranbrook than there are in our parish. East Devon District Council has revised our parish boundary such that the area north of the rear boundaries of properties fronting London Road will be part of the Cranbrook Town Council area as from 1 April 2015. The Cranbrook developers have submitted an outline planning application for about 4,500 additional houses to extend the area of the development to the west, east and south of the current outline consent, taking the total number of houses to about 7,500. As this is already part of EDDC Local Plan proposals we assume that the application (or something very close to it) will receive approval.
