    Maidstone Borough Council Final report March 2010 Foreword Foreword This report describes the Strategic Housing Market Assessment (SHMA) undertaken in Maidstone Borough in 2009. It contains a wide ranging examination of the housing market, and it conforms to the major Government Guidance on the subject. It also provides part of the ‘evidence base’ on which a wide range of planning and housing policies can be based. Acknowledgements A large-scale assessment of this nature is a collaborative effort and Fordham Research wish to thank all members of the SHMA Steering Group for their support, guidance and contributions. We would also like to thank those local stakeholders who participated in the discussion and whose local knowledge and views have been immensely helpful. It is also important to recognise that this report would not have been possible without the co-operation of the general public who gave up their time to take part in household surveys for Maidstone Borough. Their assistance is gratefully acknowledged.

In particular, the impact of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, including the setting of the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is unchanged. Policy SP17 (Countryside) still applies. Policies ENV 28 (Development in the Countryside), ENV 33 (Kent Downs AONB) and ENV34 (Special Landscape Areas) of the 2000 Plan were saved and therefore form part of the current Local Plan. The location remains backland development. Policy DM1 of the current plan (Principles of Good Design) still applies, in particular section iv “Respect the amenities of occupiers of neighbouring properties and uses and provide adequate residential amenities for future occupiers of the development by ensuring that development does not result in excessive noise, vibration, odour, aid pollution, activity of vehicular movements, overlooking or visual intrusion, and that the built form would not result in an unacceptable loss of privacy or light enjoyed by the occupiers of nearby properties”.
