Meeting the challenge of climate change, flooding and coastal change – paragraph 98 Chapter 11. Conserving and enhancing the natural environment Ministerial statement A ministerial statement by the Rt Hon Eric Pickles MP was issued on 6/6/2013. The statement regards the planning reforms to make the planning process more accessible to communities giving local people the opportunity to influence decisions that affect their lives. The statement makes specific and direct reference to on shore turbine development and the view that decisions are not always reflecting the locally-led planning system. It is stated that action is required to deliver the balance expected within the NPPF and to ensure that protecting the local environment is properly considered alongside the broader issues of protecting the global environment. In this respect new planning guidance sets out clearly that.. 1. The need for renewable energy does not automatically override environmental protections and the planning concerns of local communities. 2. Decisions should take into account the cumulative impact of wind turbines and properly reflect the increasing impact upon a) the landscape b) local amenity as the number of turbines in the area increases 3. Local topography should be a factor in assessing whether wind turbines have a damaging impact upon the landscape (i.e. recognise that the impact on predominantly flat landscapes can be as great or greater than on hilly or mountainous ones) 4. Great care should be taken to ensure heritage assets are conserved in a manner appropriate to their significance, including the impact of proposals on views important to their setting This statement and guidance is a material planning consideration and should be taken into account in assessing this application along with further detailed guidance published on 30 July 2013. Planning Practice Guidance for Renewable and Low Carbon Energy 30 July 2013 Cumbria Wind Energy Supplementary Planning Document July 2007 Relevant Planning 2/1997/0902 (11 turbines implemented) History: 2/2006/1321 (7 turbines implemented) 2/2013/0082 (Hunday Farm) Representations: Winscales Parish – No objections Great Clifton Parish Council – Objection (non-specific) Highway Authority – No objection subject to Construction Traffic Management Plan Environmental Protection – No objection subject to standard conditions. Coal Authority – No objections Natural England – No objections County Archaeologist – No objection NATS – Objection withdrawn following agreement for radar mitigation. Carlisle Airport (Stobart Air) – No objection Ministry of Defence – No objection CAA – No objection with standing advice referring to Ministry of Defence Arqiva – No objection Force – Objection regarding landscape and visual impact. The application has been advertised on site and adjoining landowners have been notified. One letter of objection and five letters of support have been received. Report Introduction The proposed site is on land adjacent to Tarn Bank, Winscales; the application seeks planning consent for the construction of a single wind turbine up to 74 metres in height to blade tip. The proposed development comprises the construction and operation of a single 80kW three bladed wind turbine on a 50 metre mast with a 48 metre rotor diameter. The turbine will add to the existing wind farm of 18 similar turbines and connected to the existing electrical infrastructure. Of note is a tandem application 2/2013/0495 for another turbine of the same specification 400 metres to the south west extending the same group of existing turbines. This is subject to a separate report for Members’ consideration. The turbine will add to the existing wind farm and continue the diversification of the farm business providing electricity to the National Grid via the feed-in-tariff. Tarn Bank has an educational access agreement in place through the Higher level Stewardship Scheme and the income stream from the turbine will continue to fund this scheme and facilitate educational access and contribute to the funding of a part time job to coordinate such visits or provide supporting resources. Site and Surroundings The proposed site comprises agricultural land with farmstead and associated buildings within a broader agricultural area. The field is near adjacent to the A595. There are a variety of scattered residential properties in the immediate area within 600 metres. The nearest dwelling is Capel How 571 metres to the east of the proposal. The residential suburb of Stainburn 1.8km to the north west is noted separated by the A66 bypass. The small settlement of Hunday is 800 metres south of the existing windfarm and a greater distance of 1.4km from the proposal. In most case the proposal is further away from residential properties than the existing turbines. The proposed turbine siting is adjacent to the existing turbines within 175 metres that make up the existing Winscales windfarm. These were approved as two separate groups near adjacent to each other under refs 2/1997/0902 (11 turbines 63.5 metres total height) and 2/2006/1321 (7 turbines 81 metres total height). Policy Considerations As core principles, the National Planning Policy Framework includes the requirement to take account of the different roles and character of different areas, recognising the intrinsic character and beauty of the countryside and encourage the use of renewable resources. The NPPF states that the delivery of low carbon energy and associated infrastructure is central to the economic social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development. In determining planning applications, LPA’s should: • not require applicants for energy development to demonstrate the overall need for renewable or low carbon energy and also recognise that even small-scale projects provide a valuable contribution to cutting greenhouse gas emissions; and • approve the application if its impacts are (or can be made) acceptable. This positive approach to renewables is underpinned by the Climate Change Act and binding legal targets to reduce carbon emissions. Policy EN25 of the Allerdale Local Plan restricts development within the open countryside to that which is ‘essential’ to meet a local need. However, the weight to be given to this policy now depends on compatibility with the NPPF which specifies approval of such applications if its impacts are (or can be made) acceptable. In assessing the merits of the proposed development it is necessary to balance the economic, social and environmental benefits of the proposed renewable energy development with any adverse environmental impact of the proposed turbines, taking into account the advice provided in the recent Ministerial Statement and subsequent guidance (see earlier in the report). Of particular note are extracts from the Planning practice guidance and low carbon energy 30 July 2013 which state: ‘Para 2 advises “Government planning practice guidance can be a material consideration in planning decisions and should generally be followed unless there are clear reasons not to.” Para 3 states “..Planning has an important role in the delivery of new renewable and low carbon energy infrastructure in locations where the local environmental impact is acceptable. “ Para 8 includes “..but in considering locations, local planning authorities will need to ensure they take into account the requirements of the technology (see paragraphs 12-13) and, critically, the potential impacts on the local environment, including from cumulative impacts (see paragraphs 43-44). The views of local communities likely to be affected should be listened to. “ Par 11 specifies “..The expectation should always be that an application should only be approved if the impact is (or can be made) acceptable. “ Para 15 refers to “ In shaping local criteria for inclusion in Local Plans and considering planning applications in the meantime, it is important to be clear that: - the need for renewable or low carbon energy does not automatically override environmental protections -cumulative impacts require particular attention, especially the increasing impact that wind turbines and large scale solar farms can have on landscape and local amenity as the number of turbines and solar arrays in an area increases -local topography is an important factor

  • Distington Parish Plan 2005
    Voluntary Action Cumbria DISTINGTON CP Distington Parish Council Distington Parish Development and Action Plan 2005-2010 Prepared by Distington Parish Council The Parish Of Distington The Parish of Distington is situated four miles from Workington and Whitehaven, and ten miles from Cockermouth, and is made up of the villages of Distington, Gilgarran and Pica plus the surrounding area. The population of 2247, recorded in the 2001 census, shows a decrease of 270 on the 1995 figures which was already down 107 on the 1991 figure, making a total reduction of 377 or 10.3% in just 10yrs. This is a trend, which may have turned around since 2001, as the housing association now report that there is a waiting list for housing in the Parish. In the past, the Parish was largely dependent upon farming, coal mining, iron making and High Duty Alloys for its income. All of these industries have declined over the years. There is now no coal mining or iron making, and High Duty Alloys and farming are much reduced in the number they employ. Most of the Community now has to travel to the neighbouring towns and further a field for employment, which is made difficult for some by the scarcity of public transport, especially for those who cannot drive, and in particular the school leaver. The 1995 census showed that of the 972 households in the Parish 295 did not own a car, which is 34% a reduction of 4% on the 1995 figure of 38%. The census also showed that 19% of the residents were over 65, with a further 27% over the age of 45, statistics which many believe will have increased considerably over recent years, meaning that there will be a greater need for better public transport, and a greater demand for recreational activities.

  • Copeland LDF - Submission
    Local Development Framework 270912 Item 6 Copeland LDF - Submission EXECUTIVE MEMBER: Councillor George Clements LEAD OFFICER: John Groves REPORT AUTHOR: Chris Bamber PURPOSE OF REPORT: To consider the following: 1. The content of representations received after the Core Strategy was published in May 2012. 2. The next steps before submission to the Secretary of State. 3. Proposed minor changes to the document RECOMMENDATION: That the Working Party note the report and approve the submission of the Core Strategy and Development Management Policies document, with suggested minor changes, to the Secretary of State 1.0 RESULTS OF THE CONSULTATION ON PUBLICATION OF THE PRE-SUBMISSION DRAFT OF THE CORE STRATEGY AND DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT POLICIES 1.1 As Members will recall, the Core Strategy and Development Management Policies DPD was published on May 31 for a six week consultation period. The responses have now been analysed and the submission documents are on course to be ready to be sent to the Secretary of State (in fact, to the Planning Inspectorate) on the scheduled date of October 31. 1.2 The published DPD is the version which will be submitted to the Secretary of the State for examination. At this stage only the Inspector, not the Council, can change the document. However, the Council can suggest minor changes where objections or other representations have suggested valid improvements. It is not permissible for changes to be made at this stage which make significant alterations to the plan; any such change would require further public consultation, therefore causing considerable delay and some additional expense. The Planning Policy team propose to submit, in the schedule, 35 suggested changes.

Paragraph 93 of the NPPF sets out that the provision of renewable energy infrastructure is central to the economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development. Regard should be made to the Ministerial Statement of 18 June 2015 which states that planning permission should only be granted where : - The development site is in an area identified as suitable for wind energy development in a Local or Neighbourhood Plan: and - Following consultation, it can be demonstrated that the planning impacts identified by affected local communities have been fully addressed and therefore the proposal has their backing. The Ministerial Statement 18 June 2015 makes it clear that turbine development should be in specified areas and supported by local communities. Until further work is undertaken to identify suitable areas for such turbine development in Allerdale, turbine applications submitted post 18 June 2015 on a site outside an area identified as suitable for wind energy development in a Local or Neighbourhood Plan would be contrary to the 18 June 2015 Ministerial Statement.

The first volume of the Marriage Registers of Cumberland is now placed in the hands of the subscribers, and the Editors hope that it will be possible to continue this series until all the Registers of the County have been printed down to the year 1837, when civil registration began. These volumes are issued under the patronage of the Cumberland and Westmorland Antiquarian and Archcsological Society, who have undertaken to subscribe for thirty copies of each volume—a subsidy which, it is hoped, will enable continuous and steady progress to be made with the work. It has not been thought needful to print the entries verbatim. They are reduced to a common form, and the following contractions have been freely used : w.=widower or widow. p.=of the parish of. co.=in the county of. dioc.=in the diocese of. /ic.= marriage licence. It must be borne in mind that the existing early Registers are themselves but transcripts, made under the order of Elizabeth in 1597, from the original paper Registers. The following general facts in the history of Parish Registers may be usefully noted : Thomas Cromwell, the Vicar General, issued the order for keeping Parish Registers on 29 Sept., 1538.

  • (Item 9) Application No. 2-06-1321 Winscales Moor Wind Farm
    RECOMMENDATION 1.1 To raise an objection to the proposal as it is contrary to Policy R44 due to its effects on the landscape character and Policy E37 as it is not compatible with the landscape capacity of the area. It would cause unacceptable harm to the landscape character both individually, and cumulatively with other wind energy schemes in the Workington area. 2 THE PROPOSAL 2.1 The development site is located to the north east of Winscales, Workington. The land is reclaimed from opencast coal mining. 2.2 The scheme involves the construction of 7 wind turbines, 81m high to blade tip, each with capacity of 1.3 MW. This would provide a total maximum ‘installed capacity’ of up to 9.1MW. The total output could meet the electricity needs of around 4,000 households. It is likely the turbines would be painted in a semi matt grey in colour. 2.3 Access to the site is proposed along the minor road from the A595 to Stainburn, running along the south west edge of the site. 4.5m wide access tracks would connect with each turbine using, where possible, existing agricultural tracks. 2.4 The proposal also includes a single storey substation and control building, sited at the southern corner of the site, a 55m anemometer mast and crane hardstandings beside each turbine. 2.5 The scheme proposes to generate electricity for approximately 25 years. At that time a decision would be taken by the developer whether to decommission, refurbish or replace the turbines. If the turbines were to be replaced or refurbished they would be subject to a further planning application.
