  • 2036 Site Allocations Flood Risk Sequential Test
    South East Lincolnshire Local Plan 2011 – 2036 Site Allocations Flood Risk Sequential Test (February 2017) 1.0 Introduction 1.1 This document provides the sequential test for proposed allocations identified in the pre-submission draft South East Lincolnshire Local Plan (SELLP). The approach taken considers all the potential sites considered in the consultations undertaken in the: • Preferred Options consultation (January/ February 2016); and • Further Preferred Sites consultation (July/ August 2016). • Sites considered to be developable which have not been selected as allocations1. 1.2 The report initially provides an overview of the flood risk issues for the SELLP area, alongside a summary of both national and local policy requirements in relation to flood risk. Following this, the document describes the methodology applied to undertake the Sequential Test for the housing sites identified in the SELLP to establish whether it would be possible for development to be directed to locations with a lower risk of flooding and, where relevant, also identifies when the Exception Test will need to be applied to proposed allocations. The tables included in Appendix 1 provide commentary on each settlement and divides the sites considered into those proposed to be allocated in the pre-submission SELLP; and those, which are considered developable, but are not proposed for allocation. 2.0 Overview and Policy Context National Policy 2.1 The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) sets out the Government’s planning policy for England including the consideration of flood risk. The NPPF states in paragraph 99 that, ‘Local Plans should take account of climate change over the longer term, including factors such as flood risk, coastal change, water supply and changes to biodiversity and landscape’.

    1.0 Background 1.1 Paragraph 73 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) - February 2019 requires local planning authorities to “identify and update annually a supply of specific deliverable sites sufficient to provide a minimum of five years’ worth of housing against their housing requirement set out in adopted strategic policies, or against their local housing need where the strategic policies are more than five years old. The supply of specific deliverable sites should in addition include a buffer (moved forward from later in the plan period) of: a) 5% to ensure choice and competition in the market for land; or b) 10% where the local planning authority wishes to demonstrate a five year supply of deliverable sites through an annual position statement or recently adopted plan, to account for any fluctuations in the market during that year; or c) 20% where there has been significant under delivery of housing over the previous three years, to improve the prospect of achieving the planned supply.” 1.2 Although the requirement is for an annual update, Boston Borough Council seeks to maintain a more regular programme of updates. Where possible, it is intended that the five-year land supply position will be up-dated on roughly a quarterly basis. The latest version is publicised on the Council’s website. ---------- 2.0 What are Boston Borough’s 5 year housing requirements? 2.1 The Planning Practice Guidance (PPG) indicates that “housing requirement figures identified in strategic policies should be used as the starting point for calculating the 5 year land supply figure for the first 5 years of the plan”.

We serve the rural communities either side of the A17 just to the North and East of Holbeach in a very pleasant and peaceful area of the fens with many opportunities for cultural and environmental enrichment. Under our last incumbent we began to reap the benefits of working more closely together as a group and we have a deep desire to see our parishes flourish and seek a leadership that will help us develop a sense of direction for the future. There is immense scope for outreach into the community, particularly through developing our contact with families via the children in the four schools in the benefice, but also through the Care Homes and Community Centres and the significant areas of new housing currently being built in some of our parishes. We are seeking a priest with a pastoral heart and a real passion for Rural Ministry who is: • Secure in their faith • An engaging and inspiring preacher who can relate to the congregation in a down to earth manner • Comfortable with different styles of worship • At ease working with children and their families and making themselves known in the wider community • Experienced enough to contribute towards the training
