Introduction 1.1 The main purpose of the Stage 1 study is to undertake a high level review of Green Belt land across the District to identify the contribution of the Green Belt towards national Green Belt purposes as set out in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). 1.2 Following this assessment against the national purposes a number of constraints will be applied as part of the Stage 1 study to enable further assessments of these areas in the Stage 2 report. 1.3 These constraints are as follows: • Strategic Flood Risk Assessment • Special Protection Areas (SPA) • Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) • Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) • Local Nature Reserves (LNR) • City of London Corporation Epping Forest Buffer land (land owned and managed by the City of London Corporation, which although not a formal part of the Forest, is not available for development) 1.4 The outcome of this study will provide only one piece of evidence amongst a wide range of considerations that must be taken into account before any potential changes to the Green Belt boundaries are proposed. Such considerations include, but are not limited to, objectively assessed need for development, infrastructure capacity, the availability land for development and sustainability. Therefore this document should not be read in isolation. If a parcel (or part of a parcel) is appraised as not serving the purposes of the Green Belt, this does not mean that the parcel should or will be allocated for development in the Local Plan or that the Council would look favourably on a planning application. 1.5 Please note that a separate Green Belt Review Methodology has been prepared which sets out an analysis of national policy relating to Green Belt and the approach of a two staged Green Belt Review. The Methodology should be read alongside this report. 1 Report to Cabinet 3 September 2015 GREEN BELT REVIEWSTAGE ONE APPENDIX 2 September 2015 Chapter 2: History of the Green Belt and Local Green Belt Policy 2.1 The following chapter sets out a brief overview of current and historic local Green Belt policy and guidance (see methodology for an overview of national policy and guidance). Following on from this it considers the potential conditions for exceptional circumstances required in order to alter Green Belt boundaries. History of the Green Belt 2.2 The Metropolitan Green Belt, which covers part of Epping Forest District, has been a central feature of planning policy in the Home Counties since it was first formally approved in 1957. The concept of a Green Belt around London originated before the Second World War in response to the need to control the outward spread of London. Epping Forest was one of the inspirations for the Green Belt principle, beginning with the First Report of the Greater London Regional Planning Committee in 1929 and its ‘green girdle’ around London. The first Green Belt was defined by the London County Council in the Greater London Plan of 1944. Soon after, the Town and Country Planning Act 1947 led to the designation of a Green Belt by the councils around London. 2.3 The Green Belt proved to be an effective tool in limiting the extent of development. So much so that in 1955 the Government published a Circular (No 42/55) setting out the purposes of the Green Belt and encouraging other cities to follow London’s example and consider establishing a Green Belt. This Circular suggested that local authorities prepare policies to ensure that new development (a) was only permitted where it would lead to a rounding off of, or infilling within, a settlement in the Green Belt, or (b) was for the purposes of agriculture, recreation, cemeteries, institutions standing in large grounds or other uses appropriate to a rural area. Local Green Belt Policy 2.4 The current Epping Forest Green Belt boundaries were established in the 1980s in the Council’s first three Local Plans. The 1998 Local Plan only introduced very minor changes to the Green Belt. 2.5 The Essex and Southend on Sea Replacement Structure Plan

    29 January 2018 bc Local Plan Regulation 19 Representation Planning Policy Team Epping Forest District Council Civic Offices Ben Thomas 323 High Street Epping Essex CM16 4BZ 33 Margaret Street London W1G 0JD T: +44 (0) 20 7499 8644 savills.com Epping Forest District Council Submission Version Local Plan We write on behalf of Crest Nicholson in relation to the site known as the former Pickfield Nursery at Pick Hill, Waltham Abbey (SLAA Reference SR-0161). Flawed / Absent Local Plan site selection process to-date: Pickfield Nursery was submitted to EFDC in response to the Call for Sites consultation in 2008 and has subsequently been promoted through the current Local Plan process since its inception in 2012. EFDC’s July 2012 SLAA referred to Pickfield Nursery as site SR-0161 but incorrectly identified it as a duplicate site with a much larger parcel (SLAA Reference SR-0020). Representations were then submitted in October 2012 highlighting this mistake. However, despite the submission of detailed representations and subsequent regular liaison with EFDC’s officers (including a positive formal pre-application meeting), EFDC’s Site Selection evidence base published in 2016 discounted Pickfield Nursery prior to Stage 1 of the selection process, once again incorrectly considering it as a duplicate site. Pickfield Nursery was finally acknowledged as an individual site in the Local Plan evidence base in the “Sites for consideration following Regulation 18 consultation” list published in July 2017. However, at the time of writing these representations (26th January 2018, one working day before the Pre-Submission consultation deadline) an assessment of these sites has still not been undertaken and Appendix C1 of the Report on Site Selection (December 2017) has not been completed.

  • Flooding Emergency Response Plan – April 2014
    Flooding Emergency Response Plan – April 2014 Essex has experienced the longest sustained period of wet weather for many years and the County Council has released an additional £1m of emergency revenue funding to deal with highways related flooding. In mid-February 2014, each of the 12 districts in Essex were invited to put forward their top 5 flooding sites for their respective administrative areas, together with any background information. Some of the sites were already well known to Essex Highways due to regular flooding events after prolonged and heavy periods of rainfall. Other sites were not so well known and detailed investigation was therefore required at an early stage. In addition to the top flooding sites listed below, further known flooding defects have been attended to between mid-February and the end of April 2014. These have mainly consisted of blocked gullies, associated pipework and culverts. Some of these have been resolved with no further action required and some requiring a repair. The work is ongoing. A number of longer-term Capital schemes have been identified that will take longer to programme and deliver. The sites that were put forward for action were: Basildon – 6 sites A129 Southend Road, Billericay Kennel Lane, Billericay Cherrydown East, Basildon Roundacre/Cherrydown/The Gore, Billericay Outwood Common Road, Billericay A129 London Road, Billericay Braintree – 13 sites A120, Bradwell Village A131, Bulmer Church Street, Bocking Leather Lane/North Road & Highfields, Great Yeldham London Road, Black Notley B1256

  • South Woodham Ferrers Town Council Masterplan Site 10 – Land North of South Woodham Ferrers Policy Board (14Th January 2021) Submission
    South Woodham Ferrers Town Council Masterplan Site 10 – Land North of South Woodham Ferrers Policy Board (14th January 2021) Submission The Town Council welcomes the opportunity to comment on this Masterplan for this development, so far: - • We are impressed with the layout and green focus of the development and the amount of open space that is being provided. • We fully support and are pleased with the commitment from the developers to ensure the whole site is constructed to Essex Vernacular design standards, in keeping with the rest of the town. • We have noted the changes to the public transport commitments, and we are pleased that a (5 year) expansion of the 36 service, including its through journey to Broomfield Hospital, as well as enhanced links to Basildon, are now part of the Masterplan submission. We are a little disappointed that the proposals do not address the need for a more direct bus service to Maldon, especially as the submission appears to promote a bus stop at Eve’s Corner in Danbury as some major Maldon-South Woodham Ferrers-Chelmsford interchange station. The Town Council raises the following points that we believe require further clarity and understanding. • We feel the pedestrian crossing of the Burnham Road for senior school pupils still remains unsafe and we would like to see more thought and consideration for safer crossings to be examined. • We believe the new primary school should be constructed and brought into operational use as soon as possible as this will reduce crosstown car journeys, a problem already identified by the submission from Essex Highways.
