It is vital that we manage, guide and encourage development within the Borough to meet the economic and social aspirations of our towns and villages and the communities within them, while protecting our environment for future generations. The Local Plan Publication document provides the version of the Local Plan Development Plan Document that the Council would like to take forward to Examination and, ultimately, adopt in order to guide new development in West Lancashire over the next 15 years. This document has been developed by considering all the information provided by the Council's evidence base and the results of previous public consultations on the Core Strategy and the Local Plan and takes into account the latest direction given by the Government on preparing local planning policy. Ultimately, the Local Plan will directly or indirectly affect all residents and communities within the Borough and this Publication consultation provides the last chance for you to make a representation on the Local Plan before it is submitted for Examination. Therefore, it is important that we hear from you on what is being proposed so that the Planning Inspector who is appointed to examine the Local Plan document can take account of all views. I very much look forward to hearing your views on the proposals and policies within this document. Councillor Martin Forshaw Portfolio Holder for Planning and Development West Lancashire Borough Council August 2012 Local Plan Publication Version West Lancashire Borough Council 3 Preface How to Comment At the Publication stage, representations on the Local Plan must be submitted in a particular format because all representations will be submitted with the Local Plan document for Examination by a Planning Inspector. The Planning Inspector can examine the Local Plan document with regard to two matters: Legal Compliance - whether the document has been prepared in accordance with all the relevant legislation Soundness - whether the content of the document represents a "sound" document, with regard to whether the document is: Positively prepared Justified Effective Consistent with national policy The Council has prepared a Statement of Representations Procedure, a standard template for representations and a guidance note to help all interested parties to make a formal representation and complete the relevant forms. These explain further the matters of legal compliance and soundness. All of these documents are available at the Council Offices, Libraries and Post Offices, or on the Council's website (www.westlancs.gov.uk/2027). The Council will also have a number of exhibition boards on display in six locations around the Borough for the duration of the Publication period providing information about the Local Plan Publication document and how to make a representation. Council officers will also host four drop-in sessions around the Borough during the Publication period to provide opportunity for members of the public to come along and ask questions about the Local Plan Publication document and for guidance on making a representation. The Council welcomes your representations on this document, which may include any suggestions you have for additional or alternative proposals and policies for the Planning Inspector to consider at Examination. There are a number of methods that you can use to make your representation on the Local Plan Publication document. Preferably we would encourage you to make your representations through our online Consultation Portal, where you will be able to view the Local Plan Publication document and make your representation in the standard template online. Alternatively, written or emailed responses will be accepted using the standard template available at the Council Offices, Libraries and Post Offices, or on the Council's website. All our contact details and website addresses are listed in the table below. Key Dates The consultation period will run from Thursday 9th August 2012 until Friday 5th October 2012, allowing you 8 weeks to submit your comments. 4 West Lancashire Borough Council Local Plan Publication Version Preface Contact Information If you wish to discuss any aspects of the Local Plan Publication document or the procedure for making a representation, please do not hesitate to contact a member of the Planning Policy Team through the contact details listed below: Contact Details Peter Richards 01695 585 046 Planning Policy Team Leader peter.richards@westlancs.gov.uk Planning Policy Team 01695 585 284 General Enquiries localplan@westlancs.gov.uk West Lancashire Borough Council 01695 577 177 Contact Centre Website http://www.westlancs.gov.uk/2027 Consultation Portal http://consult.westlancs.gov.uk Facebook http://www.facebook.com/yourwestlancashire2027 Postal Address John Harrison DipEnvP MRTPI Borough Planner West Lancashire Borough Council 52 Derby Street Ormskirk L39 2DF Local Plan Publication Version West Lancashire Borough Council 5 Preface 6 West Lancashire Borough Council Local Plan Publication Version Chapter 1 Introduction Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 The West Lancashire Local Plan 1.1 Future development within the Borough of West Lancashire over the next 15 years will be guided by the plans and policies within the Council's West Lancashire Local Plan 2012-2027 Development Plan Document. This Development Plan Document will supersede the current West Lancashire Replacement Local Plan 2001-16 and its preparation has fulfilled the requirements set out in the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act and the accompanying Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 in preparing a Development Plan Document for the Borough and has followed the guidance set out in the National Planning Policy Framework (March 2012). 1.2 The new-style Local Plan is built upon the principles of: Sustainable development; Stimulating economic and housing growth; Addressing climate change; Preserving and enhancing the natural and built environment; Spatial planning; High quality design; Good accessibility; and Community involvement. 1.3 A key difference compared to the previous Local Plan system is the concept of spatial planning, which does not just take into account land use, but also considers other issues that could indirectly affect, or be affected by, land use, such as health, education and crime. 1.4 The West Lancashire Local Plan 2012-2027 contains a vision and strategy that will set out how the Council wants West Lancashire to develop over the period to 2027. It not only ensures that new homes, jobs and services required by communities are located in the most sustainable places, but also provides the framework for delivering the necessary infrastructure, facilities and other development to make this possible. 1.5 This document provides the Publication version of the Local Plan document, which represents the Local Plan that the Council wishes to adopt. This Publication version has emerged following previous consultations on a Core Strategy and incorporating further policy matters on Development Management Policies and Site Allocations, as well as a consultation on a Preferred Options version of the Local Plan earlier this year.

  • Report Of: Executive Manager Community Services
    AGENDA ITEM: 6/16 CABINET: 15 June 2010 Report of: Executive Manager Community Services Relevant Portfolio Holder: Councillor A Fowler Contact for further information: Mr S Kent (Extn. 5169) (E-mail: stephen.kent@westlancs.gov.uk) SUBJECT: USE OF SECTION 106 MONIES IN BANKS, HESKETH BANK AND WRIGHTINGTON Wards affected: North Meols, Hesketh with Becconsall, Wrightington 1.0 PURPOSE OF THE REPORT 1.1 To consider requests from North Meols, Hesketh with Becconsall, and Wrightington Parish Councils regarding the use of monies received by the Borough Council from housing developers for the enhancement of public open space and recreation provision in their Parishes. 2.0 RECOMMENDATIONS TO CABINET 2.1 That the projects detailed in section 6 of this report be approved and the Section 106 sums of £104,510 for North Meols, £93,250 for Hesketh with Becconsall ( £29,400 from available funds and £63,850 when available from funds due), and £81,710 for Wrightington be made available to the respective Parish Councils for their projects. 2.2 That the commuted sums be paid to the respective Parish Councils subject to them entering into suitable legal agreements with the Council. 3.0 BACKGROUND 3.1 Members will recall that under policy LE.13 of the local plan developers must provide open space facilities as part of housing developments. Where developments are less than 20 dwellings or on sites where it is nor reasonable to expect a developer to provide on-site facilities, and where there is a deficiency of open space, the Council can require a commuted sum for the provision and maintenance of improvements to nearby open space or for the creation of new leisure related facilities in the area.

  • Shoreline Summary
    HESKETH WITH BECCONSALL PARISH COUNCIL Shoreline Summary Edition Number 23 ~ April 2011 Spring has arrived at last – it doesn’t mean the end of the cold and wet weather but it does mean longer days with a promise of warmer weather and sun shine to come. Hesketh Bank Allotments Update Hesketh Bank Allotments and Leisure Gardeners Association are delighted to announce that the beginning of April saw the newly created Hesketh Bank Allotments site fully open to all plot holders. With the much needed support from our very committed local sponsors the former ‘Poor Marsh’ site has been transformed into the brand new Hesketh Bank community allotment site. With a total of 57 large plots and some smaller raised beds it is set to become one of the largest community allotment sites in West Lancashire and is a great asset for the village. In these times of austerity and with the demand for growing space at an all time high this is a magnificent achievement and is a symbol of the air of optimism within Hesketh Bank. HBALGA have worked tirelessly with the Parish Council for over 2 years to create a space where local residents can grow their own fruit and vegetables and the 17 lucky plot holders who were able to move on site in June last year are starting to see all their hard work paying off. On the plots you can tell that Spring has most certainly ‘Sprung’ and there is a real feeling amongst many that the village is truly beginning to sprout new shoots of growth in all aspects.
