TYPE OF DECISION/APPLICABLE CATEGORY 1.1 Forms part of the Budget and Policy Framework. 2. PURPOSE OF REPORT 2.1 To seek approval to report the Local Plan to Full Council to seek permission to Submit the Local Plan, and other supporting documents, to the Secretary of State in line with Regulation 22 of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012. 3. BACKGROUND 3.1 In line with the timetable within the Local Development Scheme (LDS), November 2016, and following the eight week Publication Local Plan Consultation which took place between the 9th December 2016 and the 3rd February 2017, the Council is now required to submit the Local Plan to the Secretary of State in line with Regulation 22 of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 22. 3.2 Following the Publication of the Local Plan for consultation in December, the Planning Inspectorate contacted the Council and included a Service Level Agreement (SLA) which set out the terms of the Submission of the Local Plan. Part of the SLA included a requirement to provide a date on which the Council would Submit the Local Plan. In order to conform with the timetable set out within the November 2016 LDS and also to meet the deadline which was set by government to produce a Local Plan by early 2017 (advice from CLG confirmed this meant by the end of March 2017, which was 5 years since the introduction of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF)) in order to avoid the potential of the government taking action against the local authority, the date of the 23rd March was agreed in the SLA to submit the Local Plan. The Local Plan which is submitted is the Publication Local Plan (which was consulted on) and this is the version of the Local Plan which will be considered by the Planning Hartlepool Local Plan Submission Report 1 HARTLEPOOL BOROUGH COUNCIL Regeneration Services Committee – 10 March 2017 4.1 Inspector appointed to undertake the Local Plan Examination in Public, along with all of the supporting documentation including the Sustainability Appraisal, the Habitats Regulations Assessment, the Duty to Cooperate Paper, the Consultation Statements and all the other pieces of evidence base which support the Local Plan. 3.3 As part of the consultation on the Publication Local Plan 2,060 representations were received. The Consultation Statement relating to the Publication Stage of the Local Plan will be sent to the Planning Inspectorate as part of the Submission. It includes all of comments made and the officer response to those comments. It will be considered by the Planning Inspector who examines the Local Plan. The following paragraphs outline some of the key issues which were raised during the consultation. 3.4 THE PUBLICATION LOCAL PLAN MAIN CONSULTATION ISSUES 3.4.1 Minimising and Adapting to Climate Change – This section sets out the way in which Hartlepool will seek to minimise any impacts development will have on climate change and to reduce the likelihood of flooding through providing mitigation where necessary. At present there is an objection to the soundness of the plan from the Environment Agency (EA) due to the fact that the Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) and Sequential Approach to sites based on an updated SFRA has not been concluded – Consultants, JBA, are currently working on an new SFRA to replace the 2010 document which will then enable a Sequential Test to be applied to sites. Officers are continuing to liaise with the EA on the issue and are confident, following discussions with EA representatives, that once the SFRA is updated and Sequential Test undertaken that the EA will remove their objection. 3.4.2 The chapter also includes the policies relating to renewable energy generation. Within the Publication Consultation the issue which generated the most representations by far was the proposal for four smaller wind turbines in the Brenda Road area to the south of Seaton Carew. This allocation had been reduced in response to the opposition at Preferred Options with the Publication version of the plan redrawing the boundary for the wind turbines to move the area away from residential areas within Seaton to the west of Brenda Road and also reduced the maximum amount of wind turbines from 6 to 4 with a maximum tip height of 99m. However, despite these changes there were 1,194 letters of objection received in response to this proposal from residents predominantly within the Seaton area. There were however also 736 letters of support received in response to the policy voicing their support for wind power as a green form of energy. This is an issue which will need to be considered by the Inspector examining the Local Plan in light of the ministerial statement on wind energy. 3.5 Infrastructure – This section includes policies for a range of key infrastructure including Strategic transport and connectivity (including the safeguarding of land for future road improvements), community facilities Hartlepool Local Plan Submission Report 2 HARTLEPOOL BOROUGH COUNCIL Regeneration Services Committee – 10 March 2017 4.1 and services, hospital and health provision, telecommunications and utilities. 3.5.1 At Publication Stage Highways England commented on the plan with regards to highway infrastructure and capacity to support the growth of the plan. They have highlighted some additional work which is needed to draw the evidence base together into one document to enable the plan to be sound from their perspective but did note they are confident the information is there, but just not in one document. This will be produced prior to the examination to ensure their concerns are overcome. 3.5.2 One of the key proposals within this section is a proposal for a bypass to the north of Elwick Village and the construction of a new grade separated junction on the A19 at the northern Elwick entrance. The need for this highway improvement has become apparent over recent years as both the A689 and the A179 have continued to become more and more congested. Through implementing these infrastructure improvements many benefits will be experienced including reduced congestion on other roads, increased safety in the Elwick Village, increased safety on the A19 at the Elwick junctions. The cost of the these works is circa £18million and initial work including surveys and meetings with landowners is currently being funded through £600k which was secured through the Growing Places fund which will also enable the detailed design to be drawn up over the coming months. The Council is currently working with the Tees Valley Combined Authority and other funding bodies such as the Homes and Communities Agency as well as looking at its own capacity to secure funding via a loan or grant to fund the infrastructure works up front to allow development to come forward as soon as possible. The loan or grant funding would be then repaid on a pro rata and incremental basis by the developers/landowners at Elwick Road as the housing is delivered over the plan period. During the Publication consultation there was a good level of support for the proposed bypass and grade separated junction, however there were also concerns with respect to the impact this junction, and the development at High Tunstall, will have on the internal road network in the West Park area. The Local Infrastructure Plan recognises these issues, highlighting the key concerns in terms of junctions and possible mitigations which developments will need to implement. 3.5.3 Representation was also received from the Education Funding Agency (EFA) regarding the proposals under INF4 (Community Facilities) with regard to the proposals for new primary schools and the policy only requiring one form entry schools – the EFA have stated that they would only fund two form entry schools. A meeting has been arranged to meet with the EFA to discuss the matter and this issue will hopefully be resolved prior to the examination of the Local Plan. 3.6 Quality of Place – this section includes a range of policies which will help to guide the quality and design of new developments in the Borough. Where new development has an impact on the existing infrastructure policies will require mitigation and improvements to be made where appropriate. These will be secured via developer contributions and Hartlepool Local Plan Submission Report 3 HARTLEPOOL BOROUGH COUNCIL Regeneration Services Committee – 10 March 2017 4.1 delivered through S106 legal agreements. The section also includes a policy on Compulsory Purchase Powers. There were a number of representations which related to the policies within this chapter, with the most notable being concerns from housing developers over Policy QP7 which relates to Energy Efficiency.

What makes Elwick such a wonderful place to live in? We have a Church, two pubs, a Post Office/shop and a Primary School. Important though they are the things that make Elwick unique are its people and the beautiful countryside around us. So many villagers have helped to research the history of our community, either as members of our work groups or by providing interesting snippets of information to us, and we are indebted to you all. However none of this would have been possible without the support of the Parish Council, Durham County Council’s Limestone Landscape Project, who provided the matched funding (Big Lottery) and, of course, the team of specialists so ably lead by Robin Daniels of Tees Archaeology, supported by Tony Devos (Limestone Landscapes Project). Matched. Funding for the Wildlife element of the project was kindly provided by Tees Valley Community Foundation, which enabled us to produce two leaflets identifying the wildlife to be seen around the village and along the public footpaths.

  • Project Management Services – Background Brief and Project Summary
    Project Management Services – Background Brief and Project Summary Introduction The National Museum of the Royal Navy (NMRN) owns HMS Trincomalee in Hartlepool, having acquired the Trincomalee Trust in 2014. The ship forms the centre piece of the National Museum of the Royal Navy, Hartlepool, which comprises the recreated shops and other attractions around the graving dock which houses HMS Trincomalee. NMRN leased this complex from Hartlepool Borough Council (HBC) in 2016 for a period of 35 years. Both NMRN and HBC aspire to regenerate the area of the NMRN site, the adjacent Jackson’s Landing site, and Trincomalee Wharf opposite. This paper considers the options that may be available to the partners and also develops a vision for the area. Realising that vision will be challenging, but if successful will deliver a new heart for Hartlepool centred on the Harbour basin and linking to other adjacent regeneration schemes. The sites The Sites comprise: • HMS Trincomalee and the surrounding recreated shops and attractions • Hartlepool Museum and the paddle steamer Wingfield Castle, owned by HBC, but operated by NMRN • A large area of associated car parking leased by NMRN from HBC • Jacksons Landing facing part of the eastern side of the Harbour basin owned by HBC • Trincomalee Wharf facing the western side of the Harbour basin. The land is owned by NMRN through the Trincomalee Trust, but a purchase agreement was concluded between the Trincomalee Trust and the developer Jomast in 2007. This agreement was conditional on development being undertaken on the site, and upon the commencement of that development the payment of a further £437,000 to the Trincomalee Trust.

  • Local Plan Submission Stage with Modifications Following Hearings
    Hartlepool Local Planning Framework Local Plan Submission Stage With Modifications following Hearings Novemebr 2017 Leader’s Foreword “As the Leader of Hartlepool Council I am proud to endorse this Publication Local Plan for the Borough. The Local Plan is incredibly important as it will set the planning framework for the next 15 years. It contains policies that will help Hartlepool achieve its Vision for future growth and prosperity with a wide range and choice of homes and jobs within a high quality environment. Hartlepool has so much to offer, with its fantastic marina, a great coastline and a beautiful rural environment on our doorstep. In recent years there have been major achievements through regeneration, improvements to local communities and investment in housing and new businesses. The rebuilding of the Hartlepool College of Further Education and major investment in Cleveland College of Art and Design, improvements to retail facilities and the transport interchange - all in the heart of the town centre - are positive signs of how the town is moving forward. There has also been significant investment in other areas such as Queens Meadow Business Park where we have the most successful Enterprise Zone in the Tees Valley and a new Fire Brigade administrative and training centre being built. Looking ahead, the town is well placed to benefit from future growth in offshore wind and renewable energy and other ‘green’ industries and this Local Plan will ensure that the planning framework supports this ambition through land allocations and infrastructure provision. I believe that the growth proposals within the Local Plan will benefit Hartlepool and its residents through attracting significant inward investment and the associated jobs and opportunities that will result from growing our economy.
