We want people to engage fully in this process so that responses can be fed into the next draft of the Plan. This is your opportunity to identify the key issues that need to be addressed and to shape the future development of Dover District. What is a Local Plan? 1.3 A Local Plan sets out a vision and a framework for the future development of the area, addressing needs and opportunities for housing, the economy, community facilities and infrastructure, as well as the basis for conserving and enhancing the natural and historic environment, mitigating and adapting to climate change, and achieving well designed places. 1.4 The Local Plan is at the heart of the planning system and provides the framework for all planning decisions to be judged against. Why are we producing a new Local Plan? 1.5 The District’s existing Local Plan consists of the Core Strategy 2010 and the Land Allocations Plan 2015, as well as saved policies from the 2002 Local Plan. The Government has made changes to legislation, policyandguidancesincetheseplansweredeveloped,whichmeanstheyneedtobereviewedandupdated. 1.6 The Government requires all local authorities to have an up to date local plan in place by December 2023. New Plans can take several years to finalise and so it is important we make progress now. What have we done so far? 1.7 So far we have: carried out stakeholder workshops which have helped to inform the key issues that the Plan needs to address, developed the evidence which is needed to support the Plan, identified and assessed the different options for delivering the required growth and development, carriedouttargetedstakeholderconsultationonspecificissuestoinformthedraftplanforconsultation, liaised with our neighbouring authorities under the duty to co-operate to agree statements of common ground in relation to cross border issues, and prepared draft policies and proposals which form the basis of this consultation document. What happens after this consultation? 1.8 Following the end of the consultation we will: review and consider all responses received to the consultation and; complete the evidence supporting the plan 1.9 Based upon the above we will produce a final draft of the Plan (called a Regulation 19 Submission Plan) which will be subject to further consultation prior to submission for examination. 7 2.1 The purpose of this consultation is to ask for your views on: the key issues that the new Plan should address, a draft vision for Dover District in 2040 and the objectives needed to meet that vision, the options that have been considered to address the key issues and growth and development needs, the draft strategy for meeting growth and development needs over the next 20 years, the land identified which is expected to be needed to meet this strategy and draft policies for guiding that development, and draft policies to address climate change, and for protecting and enhancing the natural, built and historic environment of the District. Who should get involved in this consultation? 2.2 We are seeking views from the whole community, including residents and community groups, businesses, landowners, developers, as well as statutory consultees, delivery partners and infrastructure providers. 2.3 If you have an interest in the future of Dover District this is your opportunity to help shape the future plan for the District. How can I get involved? 2.4 The consultation on the draft Local Plan is open from the 20th January to the 17th March 2021. To comment on the document, find out more about the consultation, and sign up to an online event go to: www.doverdistrictlocalplan.co.uk 2.5 If you are having problems accessing or commenting on the document please telephone 01304 872 244 Monday to Thursday 10am - 12pm. 9 3.1 This chapter provides a spatial portrait of the District. Geography 3.2 Dover District is located on Kent’s east coast, at the narrowest point along the English Channel, between the United Kingdom and mainland Europe. Calais is only 34 kilometres across the Strait of Dover, meaning Dover is an important gateway to the continent and beyond. The District covers an area of 320 square kilometres, and has around 32 kilometres of coastline. The District is bounded by Thanet to the north, Canterbury to the west and Folkestone and Hythe to the south. 3.3 There are two main urban areas within the District: Dover with its ports to the south and Deal with its Pier and beaches to the east. There are also the rural service centres of medieval Sandwich and Aylesham, a garden community designed by Sir Patrick Abercrombie during the 1920s. Figure 3.1 Dover District In Context Population 3.4 The most recent (2018) population estimates published by the Office for National Statistics show the population of Dover District to be 116,969 people, consisting of 57,761 males and 59,208 females. The charts below compare the population’s gender and age distribution between the 2011 Census and 2018 population estimates, showing that the population of Dover is ageing, with the 70 to 74 age range having 11 grown the most as a percentage of the total population, while the 40 to 44 and 45 to 49 age ranges have shrunk. The charts also show that a portion of the 15 to 19 age cohort in 2011 has not been retained into the 2018 age 20 to 24 and 25 to 29 cohorts. Figure 3.2 Dover 2011 Gender By Age Pyramid Source: Office for National Statistics Figure 3.3 Dover 2018 Gender By Age Pyramid Source: Office for National Statistics 3.5 In the years from 2010-2018 the average total net migration inflow per year was 783 people, and the total cumulative migration was 6,265 people.
