Introduction 1.1 This Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) forms part of the evidence base of the Maldon District Local Development Plan (LDP), which will set the planning policy framework in which to deliver of the District’s vision, setting the strategic planning framework for the next 15-years. The IDP is a working evidence base document that will evolve in parallel to the LDP process. Part 1 of the IDP will assess the baseline infrastructure capacity and needs in the District and identify the lead organisations to deliver and manage infrastructure. Whilst Part 2 will identify the detailed infrastructure costs arising as a result of development put forward in the LDP. The IDP therefore represents the Council’s current understanding of the infrastructure issues within the District. (i) What is Infrastructure? 1.2 For the purposes of the Infrastructure Delivery Plan, ‘infrastructure’ is the physical, social and green capital required to enable sustainable development. An holistic IDP will take account of the three principles of sustainability ‘society, economy and environment’ and integrate the requirements of each to ensure we can meet “the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”. The following is a list of important infrastructure areas that will impact upon Maldon District over the next 15-years. This list is not exhaustive. Social Affordable Housing Gypsy and Traveller Sites Education – pre-School, primary, secondary, further education, adult education GP Surgeries and Hospitals Emergency Services - police, fire, ambulance Community Services - community centres and centres for: children, young people, elderly and those with special needs. Cemeteries and crematoria, courts, hostels, places of worship, libraries, post offices Culture and Leisure Green Open Space - parks and country parks, children’s play areas, sport pitches and grounds, allotments, green public realm Biodiversity - local wildlife sites, local nature reserves, private nature reserves, SSSIs Geology Sites Physical Transport - highway, rail and bus networks, footpaths, cycle routes, bridleways and waterways, car parking Energy - gas and electricity generation and distribution. Renewable energy projects Water - water supply, water treatment, drainage, flood defences Telecommunications, Broadband and Wireless Connections Waste Collection and Disposal, Recycling Page 4 EB059a Maldon District Infrastructure Delivery Plan: Part 1 June 2012 __________________________________________________________________________________________ (ii) Purpose of the Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) 1.3 Maldon District Council is required to demonstrate that the policies and proposals contained within the Local Development Plan will be delivered in accordance with the principle of sustainable development. Consequently, it is essential that as part of the Local Development Plan process, the infrastructure requirements necessary to support the anticipated development and growth across the district are identified. 1.4 Part 1 of the IDP will assess the baseline infrastructure capacity and needs in the District and identify the lead organisations to deliver and manage infrastructure. Part 2 will identify the infrastructure costs arising as a result of development put forward in the Local Development Plan and where feasible align the implementation of the IDP with the aims and objectives of other local and sub-regional strategies. It will provide evidence for an aggregate funding gap over the plan period and will form a basis in which to carry out viability analysis for a Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) charging schedule. The IDP is therefore a key part of the Local Development Plan’s evidence base. In addition, the IDP forms part of the evidence base to inform the justification of the Council’s Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Charging Schedule. 1.5 For clarity, the IDP will not prioritise what infrastructure elements should be delivered and in particularly what funds should be allocated to the delivery of infrastructure. These decisions will be taken by individual service providers and, in relation to CIL through the governance arrangements established to allocate CIL monies. Furthermore, it should not be expected that all infrastructure identified in the IDP will be delivered, within the timeframes identified, or at all. (iii) National Planning Policy Framework 1.6 The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) sets out the Government’s aims and principles for promoting sustainable development. 1.7 The NPPF highlights that one of the overarching roles of the planning system is to proactively drive and support sustainable economic development to deliver homes, business and industrial units, infrastructure and thriving local places. With specific regard to infrastructure it is stated that planning policies should recognise and seek to address potential barriers to investment, including any lack of infrastructure. 1.8 The NPPF requires each local planning authority to produce a Local Plan for its area. Local Plans are required to plan positively for the development and infrastructure required in the area to meet the objectives, principles and policies of the NPPF. With regard to infrastructure planning, local planning authorities are required to work with other authorities and providers to: Assess the quality and capacity of infrastructure for transport, water supply, wastewater and its treatment, energy (including heat), telecommunications, utilities, Page 5 EB059a Maldon District Infrastructure Delivery Plan: Part 1 June 2012 __________________________________________________________________________________________ waste, health, social care, education, flood risk and coastal change management, and its ability to meet forecast demands; and Take account of the need for strategic infrastructure including nationally significant infrastructure within their areas. 1.9 Local Plans must be deliverable and as such careful attention to viability and costs is required within plan-making and decision-taking. Therefore, the sites and the scale of development identified in the plan should not be subject to such a scale of obligations and policy burdens that their ability to be developed viably is threatened. (iv) Potential Delivery Mechanisms 1.10 Where appropriate and in accordance with the relevant regulations, new developments should meet their own infrastructure needs, from on-site provision of utilities to new roads and junctions. Where new development puts pressure on social or green infrastructure, or creates a need e.g. for new community facilities or open space, provision should also be made for these. It is recognised that there are financing constraints on developers. However, innovative solutions which incorporate good management strategies and better use of existing resources are necessary to ensure the required infrastructure is there to support growth and benefit the local communities affected by development. There are a number of potential infrastructure funding sources: S106 Contributions from developers to deliver the required infrastructure to support development. Community Infrastructure Levy - The Council will review the potential role of the CIL in funding infrastructure. The introduction of CIL would be to bridge an aggregate funding gap and provide local infrastructure to those communities most affected by development. New Homes Bonus - Designed to create a fiscal incentive to encourage local authorities to facilitate housing growth. It works by matching the council tax raised on increases in effective stock. Public sector funding from national, strategic and local grants as well as the normal capital and revenue funding streams for

Introduction and reason for the review 1.1 Maldon District Council is to undertake a Community Governance Review of the Basin Ward of the Parish of Heybridge. A map showing the area the subject of this review is attached at Annex A. A Community Governance Review is a review of the whole or part of the district area to consider one or more of the following: • Creating, merging, altering or abolishing parishes (in the case of this review – creating); • The naming of parishes and the style of new parishes; • The electoral arrangements for parishes (the ordinary year of election; Council size, the number of Councillors to be elected to the Council and parish warding). 1.2 In undertaking this review the Council will be guided by Part 4 of the Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007 and the associated Guidance on Community Governance Reviews issued by the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, and published in March 2010. Relevant parts of the Local Government Act 1972 also apply. Also relevant are Regulations which guide, in particular, consequential matters arising from the Review: Local Government (Parishes and Parish Councils) (England) Regulations 2008 (SI2008/625). (The 2007 Act transferred powers to the principal councils which previously, under the Local Government Act 1997, had been shared with the Electoral Commission’s Boundary Committee for England.) Also, the Local Government Finance (New Parishes) (England) Regulations 2008.
