  • Steyning-Designation-Report.Pdf (PDF
    HORSHAM DISTRICT COUNCIL NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN AREA DESIGNATION PARISH OF STEYNING PARISH COUNCIL DESIGNATION OF AREA 1 BACKGROUND An application for the designation of the Parish of Steyning as a neighbourhood area for the purpose of producing a neighbourhood development plan was received from Steyning Parish Council on 14 May 2018, as shown in Appendix A. In accordance with the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012 (as amended), Horsham District Council has considered whether the application meets the requirements of Regulation 5A of the Regulations. The Council, on 25 July 2013, delegated authority to the Head of Strategic Planning, in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Planning and Development, to publicise applications for neighbourhood areas and determine applications. 2 APPLICATION Steyning Parish was part of the neighbourhood planning cluster formerly known as SWAB (Steyning, Wiston, Ashurst & Bramber). This group formally de-clustered on 12 October 2017 under Regulation 12 of the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012 (as amended). As set out above, an application for the designation of the entirety of Steyning Parish as a ‘neighbourhood plan area’ for the purpose of producing a neighbourhood development plan was received from Steyning Parish Council on 14 May 2018. No other parishes or areas are included in the application. The application was accompanied by a statement explaining why Steyning Parish is considered appropriate to be designated as a neighbourhood area, and a map on an Ordnance Survey base identifying the intended neighbourhood plan area was also provided. (See Appendix C) Section 61(G) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended) sets out which organisations and areas qualify as Neighbourhood Planning areas.

  • Examination of Brighton & Hove City Plan: Part 1 – Proposed
    EXAMINATION OF BRIGHTON & HOVE CITY PLAN: PART 1 – PROPOSED MODIFICATIONS CONSULTATION Matter 2 ‘Housing Target’ Statement prepared by Quod and Barton Willmore on behalf of Mayfield Market Towns Ltd (Respondent Number 23) Respondent: Mayfield Market Towns Ltd (Representor Number 23) Matter 2 Housing Target Do the proposed modifications, notably PM072, which includes a revised housing target of 13,200 dwellings over the plan period reflect a strategy which accords with paragraph 14 of the Framework, in particular the local plans should positively seek opportunities to meet the development needs of their area; and should meet objectively assessed needs unless the adverse impacts of doing so would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits. 1.1 Proposed Modifications to the City Plan make provision for at least 13,200 homes within the Plan period (PM072), which equates to an average delivery of 660 dwellings per annum (dpa). Whilst this represents an increase to the housing provision previously identified in the Submission City Plan (11,300 dwellings, or 565 dpa), this falls well short of the objectively assessed need identified in the City Plan of between 900‐1,200 dpa (or 18,000 to 24,000 dwellings over the plan period). 1.2 Whilst the housing target in the City Plan represent a significant shortfall (which is acknowledged by the Council) as set out in our Matter 1 Statement (‘Objectively Assessed Need for Housing’) by applying the latest 2012‐based household projections, Brighton & Hove’s housing need increases to at least 1,302 dpa. As a result, the identified shortfall in the housing need of Brighton & Hove will be further exacerbated and will be at a level that cannot simply be ignored.

  • Worthing Borough Council / Horsham District Council Statement of Common Ground
    Worthing Borough Council / Horsham District Council Statement of Common Ground Signatories: Lynn Lambert Kevin Jenkins Cabinet Member for Planning and Executive Member for Regeneration Development Dated: 2nd June 2021 1. Introduction and Scope 1.1 Local Planning Authorities are required by the Localism Act 2011 to meet the 'Duty to Cooperate', that is to engage constructively and actively on an on-going basis on planning matters that impact on more than one local planning area. 1.2 The National Planning Policy Framework and National Planning Policy Guidance sets out the strategic issues where co-operation might be appropriate. In this regard, local planning authorities are expected to demonstrate evidence of having effectively cooperated to plan for issues with cross-boundary impacts when their Local Plans are submitted for examination. 1.3 The overall aim is to ensure appropriate co-ordination and planning for the cross-boundary strategic planning issues that exist and/or are likely to arise in the foreseeable future between the Councils. This Statement of Common Ground (SoCG) helps to meet this requirement and it should be considered alongside the respective parties’ Duty to Co-operate Statements which have been prepared to support the Worthing Local Plan (WLP) and Horsham District Local Plan (HDLP) respectively. 2 Worthing Context 2.1 Worthing is located within West Sussex on the coastal plain, with the only breaks in an almost continuous band of urban development along the coast being at the far eastern and western ends of the borough. Whilst being principally a compact urban area, there are a number of highly valued greenspaces, parks and gardens within and around the town.

  • MSDC23 Northern West Sussex Housing Market Area Agreed Changes to DP5: Housing
    MSDC23 Northern West Sussex Housing Market Area Agreed Changes to DP5: Housing 1. At the District Plan examination hearings held on 25th and 26th July 2017, a discussion was held regarding the contribution Mid Sussex could make towards the unmet need within the Housing Market Area (HMA), particularly to address need arising from Crawley. This was in light of new evidence related to the calculation of the residual unmet need (principally raised by the Developer’s Forum and Mr Kerslake) and the timescale over which it had been previously calculated. 2. The following numerical position is agreed by the three HMA authorities (Crawley, Horsham and Mid Sussex). Objectively Assessed Need Plan Period Plan Years Annual OAN Total OAN Crawley 2015-2030 15 675 10,125 Horsham 2011-2031 20 650 13,000 Mid Sussex 2014-2031 17 876 14,892 38,017 3. Based on supply identified in currently adopted Local Plans, and the position concluded at the end of the last hearing for Mid Sussex: Plan Supply Plan Period Plan Years Annual Supply Total Supply Crawley 2015-2030 15 340 5,100 Horsham 2011-2031 20 800 16,000 Mid Sussex 2014-2031 17 876/1,090 16,390 37,490 4. At the hearing sessions, Mid Sussex presented a range of scenarios titled 1a – 4b (library ref: MSDC19). These showed various results dependant on three interchangeable variables: Using Crawley’s plan supply position or position outlined in their current plan supply monitoring Addressing the need by 2030 (Crawley’s plan period) or 2031 (Horsham/Mid Sussex plan period) An allowance of 35dpa ‘elsewhere’, a point discussed at the hearings 5.
