APOLOGIES FOR ABSENCE Apologies were received and accepted from Parish Councillor M Throsby. 2. DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST There were no declaration of interests. 3. APPROVAL OF MINUTES It was RESOLVED that the minutes of the Extra Ordinary meeting held on 8th August 2017 were a correct record and signed by the Chairman 4. PROGRESS UPDATE FROM LAST MEETING Items to be discussed on agenda. 5. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION No members of public present. 6. POLICE Clerk circulated Police crime data spreadsheets link to Councillors. 2 offences reported in July & 6 offences in August. Community Hall are finding small gas canisters in the car park which aren’t illegal, therefore nothing the Police can do. Operation Sentinel is operating in the area 2 days a month and regular speed checks are being carried out. Police are also trying to get a Shop Watch scheme up and running in Leighton Buzzard. 7. CENTRAL BEDFORDSHIRE COUNCIL Ward Cllr Versallion confirmed his ‘Help & Advice Surgeries’ are drop in and no appointment is necessary, however would appreciate contact prior to the surgery with questions so he can prepare and find information beforehand. CBC are proposing to compulsory purchase the unauthorised site in Billington and relocate nearby to provide a site that will be owned and managed by CBC. The target for this is 2021. Councillors raised concerns about displacement and where will those that don’t wish to move go? Draft Local Plan has not taken into account displacement numbers. Ward Cllr Versallion advised that CBC had recently lost the Mile Tree Road in Heath and Reach G&T Planning Appeal case due to lack of G&T sites provided by CBC and agreed until a local plan is adopted, will keep losing appeals. 8. PLANNING CB/17/02729/VOC Motorcycle Track south of, Stanbridge Road, Great Billington Variation of Condition Granted by CBC DMC on 16th August. CB/15/01784/MW Motorcycle track south of Stanbridge Road, Great Billington, Leighton Buzzard, LU7 9JH Raising of existing bunding to motorcycle track to a minimum of 2.0m above the highest part of the existing track level as required by condition 7 of planning permission reference CB/14/03678/VOC. OBJECT on grounds that acoustic fencing will not be suitable to negate the noise as adequately as bunding and therefore will not comply with the decibel level for operating in winter months, making the site not appropriate. Require an independent noise monitoring report and recommendations. 9. CBC DRAFT LOCAL PLAN As agreed at the 8th August meeting, Chairman Sutton circulated a draft response to all Councillors by email and submitted final below comments on CBC website under representation 3084 on behalf of the parish council. It was AGREED for future consultations there would be more in depth discussions between all Councillors and a local planning consultant employed. Stanbridge Parish Council have read and considered the Draft Local Plan, which is extensive so we have focused on key areas which we feel are most relevant to our local residents. We can fully appreciate the time and resources which have gone into developing the plan, however overall, we feel disappointed at the lack of detail in the plan at this stage, especially as this is the third time the Local Plan has been submitted for consultation, as we understand it. We would question if this should not be acknowledged in some way, as 1 Signed by Presiding Chairman -------------------------------------- 10th October 2017 Minutes of the Stanbridge Parish Council Meeting held at Stanbridge and Tilsworth Hall on Tuesday 12th September 2017 previous consultations have been undertaken and scarce Council funding spent obtaining and collating information. We would seek assurance that this has not been wasted and that the information can be incorporated into the next draft? All the blank pages contained within the draft make this an extremely lengthy and tiresome document to page through, which would have been helpful to be removed at this stage, especially for the on-line copy. Can they please be removed for the next consultation? This also makes it expensive or timely to print off for those that didn’t have a pc and needed a hard copy. We would summarise or keys issues as: Vision & Objectives Local Character SO4 Create high quality neighbourhoods that have regard for local character and use sustainability principles which are sensitive and responsive to the significance of the local environment, are distinctive, safe, functional and accessible and which reinforce the identity of the area's townscapes, landscape and public places. Response – Accepted that this is the aspiration, however currently this is not always the case when large G&T encampments have happened, which are not fully controlled through the planning policy system. They are also not evenly or fairly distributed throughout the County, with a disproportionate increase in the south of the County. We are also concerned about the lack of necessary enforcement to ensure an equitable planning system for all residents is managed and maintained, and there is not planning rule for the many, and different for a few. How will you stop this in the future? The need for G&T housing is apparent but should not be at the expense of impacting on existing settled communities and ensuring a fair system for all. We would ask for a definition of what the Council mean by ‘high quality neighbourhoods’ as in order to reduce ongoing and raising tensions we would like to see that G&T settlements are considered under the same aspirational ‘high quality’ standards in design, layout, density and enforcement, to ensure equality in the planning system. Environment . The special character of the area’s natural assets have been protected and enhanced, fewer wildlife habitats are at risk, and new higher standards of development, integrating renewable or low energy technology are being delivered. Response – This is not happening where G&T sites are currently. They are becoming a blot on the landscape and changing the nature of the villages where they are placed, which again we would expect the Local Plan to clearly address for the future. SO13 Support the necessary changes to adapt to climate change by minimising emissions of carbon and local air quality pollutants, protecting and enhancing biodiversity. Improving and protecting air and water quality, reducing flood risk and adverse impacts from noise including the safeguarding of quiet areas and reducing the impacts of contaminated land Response: In Stanbridge we are currently having to endure Motor cross noise pollution plus G&T contamination of water and light pollution from strong lighting they use and raw sewerage, known to be expelled into local water course systems due to lack of formal sanitation. We would be delighted if the above was true or could be obtained in the future, again we would like to seek assurance that this will apply to existing and future G&T sites through necessary planning law and enforcement. 7.6 The Proposed Growth Locations Area A – South 7.6. 7.6.2 As the Luton HMA is largely comprised of Green Belt land, this will mean some release of land within the Green Belt where ‘exceptional circumstances’ can be demonstrated. Objection- Expansion in our Green belt but not Luton’s – why? There is a wider concern about the loss of Green Belt, and we would request a clear definition of what is meant and understood by ‘exceptional circumstances’. Should the Local Plan still not focus on the intensification of Luton and brown field sites, rather than the easier option of Green Belt development? Is this clearly explained in the plan? Section 8 Implementation North of Luton Statement- community centres with a mixture of retail uses including A1 (shops), A3 (café/ restaurants) and A4 (drinking establishments) whilst ensuring the viability of Luton, Dunstable and Houghton Regis Town Centres are not undermined; Response: Dunstable’s growth around the theatre resulted in many of the units closed and not filled for years. How will you stop this happening again – its perceived as a waste of money. Town centre killed off by retail parks outside of town and poor parking and traffic issues are only now being addressed. 2 Signed by Presiding Chairman -------------------------------------- 10th October 2017 Minutes of the Stanbridge Parish Council Meeting held at Stanbridge and Tilsworth Hall on Tuesday 12th September 2017 Section 8 implementation. Statement - Integrated community hub with a “Health and Social Care Hub”, to serve both the development and the catchment area; preschool/ nursery/ early years facilities; enlargements to existing schools and the provision of new schools/ educational facilities as required to support the identified need of future residents including any existing unmet need, including a new secondary school. Response : essential this in place as early as possible so as to make living and working here successful and workable. All too often we are seeing key infrastructure not being provided by major developers early enough resulting in added pressure on existing infrastructure and facilities. Necessary S106 commitments should be strongly enforced and committed to in the planning of any new developments. GREEN BELT 9.2.4 Statement - Evidence produced in support of this Plan demonstrates that locating all growth beyond the Green Belt would have serious consequences for the sustainability of settlements both within and outside the Green Belt. For example, over development in the north of Central Bedfordshire threatens the character and identity of existing communities, and risks putting excessive pressure on existing services and facilities, and harming habitats and landscape which surround them.

    Item No. 8 APPLICATION NUMBER CB/14/02051/FULL LOCATION Land West of 71 Woburn Road, Heath And Reach, Leighton Buzzard, LU7 0AP PROPOSAL Conversion, alteration and extension of barn to form single dwelling. Creation of basement under barn. Erection of secure bin/cycle store. Construction of passing bay PARISH Heath & Reach WARD Heath & Reach WARD COUNCILLORS Cllr Versallion CASE OFFICER Debbie Willcox DATE REGISTERED 05 June 2014 EXPIRY DATE 31 July 2014 APPLICANT AGENT Jeffrey Charles Emmett Planning Consultancy REASON FOR COMMITTEE TO Councillor Versallion called the application in as he DETERMINE disagrees with officer recommendation. RECOMMENDED DECISION Full Application - Recommended for refusal Summary of Recommendation: The proposed development would constitute inappropriate development within the Green Belt and the applicant has failed to demonstrate that 'very special circumstances' exist in this case to overcome the harm by reason of inappropriateness and limited harm to the openness of the Green Belt. The proposal would result in the loss of a Cypress hedge that has value in its role screening and softening the site. The applicant has also failed to submit a signed Unilateral Undertaking and therefore has not demonstrated that the proposed development would make sufficient provision for financial contribution towards community infrastructure. The proposal is therefore contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework, policies GB3 and BE8 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review, policies 19, 36 and 43 of the emerging Development Strategy, the Central Bedfordshire Planning Obligations Strategy and the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide. Site Location: The application site has an area of approximately 0.21 hectares and comprises meadow land, a single storey barn, and the single access track leading to Woburn Road.

  • Including Bellcross Homes and Kensworth Builders Ltd) 25Th August 2017
    CENTRAL BEDFORDSHIRE LOCAL PLAN CONSULTATION – AUGUST 2017 On behalf of Bellcross Company (including Bellcross Homes and Kensworth Builders Ltd) 25th August 2017 INTRODUCTION 1. The following representations are made by Rapleys on behalf of the Bellcross Company (including subsidiaries, Bellcross Homes and Kensworth Builders Ltd) in respect of their land interests within Central Bedfordshire. 2. The land interests are fourfold – Land off Parkside, Houghton Regis, comprising some 13.8ha being promoted for residential development; Land off Trafalgar Drive, Flitwick, comprising some 7.3ha being promoted for residential development; Land off Dunstable Road, Caddington, comprising some 46ha, part of which is being promoted for residential development; and Land off Chalton Heights, Chalton, comprising some 14ha being promoted for mixed residential/employment/roadside development. 3. All four sites have previously been promoted through the iterations of the Local Plan and call for sites exercises. Rapleys welcomes the opportunity to participate in this consultation exercise and provide the following comments below in respect of the Councils draft Local Plan. 4. The representation commentary focusses in generic terms on the overall strategy being considered by the Council, as this is a major element of this consultation and should be read in that context. It is important to get this right rather than be too centred at this stage on the more general development control policies such as affordable housing, open space provision, etc. We reserve the right to provide further comment on these matters at the appropriate time (i.e., the next consultation). Separate comment is then provided in respect of each of the client sites.

  • Luton SUE Site Size (Ha): 283.81
    Site: NLP426 - North Luton SUE Site size (ha): 283.81 Parcel: NLP426f Parcel area (ha): 89.74 Stage 1 assessment Stage 2 assessment Parcel: L2 Parcel: n/a Highest contribution: Purpose 3 - Strong Contribution: contribution Contribution to Green Belt purposes Purpose Comments Purpose 1: Checking The parcel is located adjacent to the large built up area and development here would relate the unrestricted to the expansion of Luton. The parcel is only separated from the settlement edge to the sprawl of large, built- south by occasional hedgerow trees. However, the low hedgerows, and intermittent up areas hedgerow trees along the remaining boundaries provide little separation between the parcel and the rolling farmland beyond the parcel to the north, west and east, so that despite its proximity to Luton, the parcel relates more strongly to the wider countryside and its release would constitute significant sprawl into the countryside. Purpose 2: The development of the parcel would result in little perception of the narrowing of the gap Preventing the between neighbouring towns because the larger towns to the north of Luton, including merger of Flitwick, are separated by the chalk escarpment running east-west which would limit the neighbouring towns impact. Purpose 3: The proximity of the adjacent residential settlement edge has some urbanising influence on Safeguarding the the parcel particularly as the occasional hedgerow trees on the boundary offer little countryside from separation. However, there is no urban development within the parcel itself and openness encroachment and undulating topography of the parcel give it a stronger relationship with the wider downland countryside.
