The Council has overperformed against the housing requirement in 2 out of the 4 years included in this report, delivering a surplus of 205 units overall. There has been an increase of 2,566 jobs since the beginning of the plan-period which represents growth of 855 per year. There has been growth in all areas of retail and employment floorspace apart from B1(a) office use which can be attributed to changes in permitted development rights for office-to-residential conversions. The Spatial Strategy and Strategic Developments sections also sets out progress in housing growth areas, regenerations areas and specific schemes in each sub-area. There have been 663 affordable homes delivered since the beginning of the plan-period. A total of 28 Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMO) bedspaces have been permitted during the plan-period. There has been 13.42ha of employment land developed since the beginning of the plan- period. There is 48.42ha available employment land on Primary Employment Areas (PEAs); 35.93ha available employment land on Key Employment Areas (KEAs) and 9.12ha through other sources. 3,315sqm of A1 (comparison) retail floorspace has been permitted since the beginning of the plan-period within designated city, town, district and local centres. 22,902sqm of recognised main town centre use floorspace has been permitted within designated centres.

Total household waste collected during the monitoring period amounts to 4,700.34 tonnes, of which 27.56% was recycled on average. Work has commenced on schedule on the Sunderland Strategic Transport Corridor to the A1231 between the junction with St. Michael’s Way and Northern Spire Bridge and is due to complete in 2021. Approximately 20% of the Strategic Cycle Route Transport Corridors, A1018 corridor cycle route, has been delivered at Newcastle Road/Sunderland Road to the boundary with South Tyneside. £23,264,747 has been secured through planning obligations towards various infrastructure, £914,802 of which was to contribute to affordable housing provision. 4 Introduction Sunderland’s 2015-2019 AMR reviews the first 4 years of the CSDP plan-period and includes information on the implementation of the Local Development Scheme (LDS) and the extent to which planning policies set out in the Local Plan documents are being achieved. Each milestone in the preparation of the CSDP has been met on target as set out in the 2017 LDS. The CSDP is on course for adoption in early 2020 which would not reach the target set out in the LDS, however confirmation of this and further monitoring will be included in next year’s AMR. The Council is required to produce an AMR on at least an annual basis under the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act (2004). This AMR covers the period from 1 April 2015 to 31 March 2019, but also, where appropriate, includes details up to the time of publication. The Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 sets out the minimum requirements for monitoring reports which has helped inform the structure of this report. This report assesses the progress in the preparation of the LDS with particular focus on the CSDP and uses the themes of the CSDP as the structure for each chapter, in chronological order. 5 Quick Reference Table Each of the Policies of the CSDP are included in the table below. As this AMR covers the first four years of the Plan-period, there are four sets of data for many of the indicators and the green, yellow and red colours indicate the trend in the data. For the indicators which only have one set of data, the progress indicator is void and will be populated in next year’s AMR.

I have divided the route into 5 sections of between 10 to 17 kms in length." Section 1 Jarrow to South Shields 10 km" Jarrow Leaving St Paul's Church, cross the road at Church Bank, continue along the wide tarmac path opposite (River Don footpath) until you reach mosaic incorporated into tarmac. Do not cross the bridge here, but take the left fork adjacent to river, under Straker Street (A185) and across to a point where the metro line crosses A19. Turn left, under the metro line bridge and left again, then first right following River Don footpath, under A19 - WATCH YOUR HEAD! Continue on the paved path to Jarrow Cemetery. Cross Cemetery Road and continue walking along the River Don footpath, soon crossing from the west to the east side of the river then back again to the west side at the next bridge.

  • Sunderland City Council Schedule of Main Modifications January 2020
    Sunderland City Council Schedule of Main Modifications January 2020 Core Strategy and Development Plan 2015-2033 Publication Draft 1 The Publication Draft Core Strategy and Development Plan (CSDP) must meet the requirements of section 20(5) (a-c) of the 2004 Act, associated regulations and the requirements of the National Planning Policy Framework (‘the Framework’). Under section 20(7C) of the 2004 Act, the Inspector has recommended main modifications to the plan that are deemed necessary to make the CSDP sound and legally compliant. There are two types of modifications; • Main Modifications - are those that materially affect the submitted Plan, which are required to ensure that the plan is sound and legally compliant. • Additional Modifications - are those where they will not impact upon the intent or interpretation of the Plan or go to the heart of whether the plan is ‘sound’ or not. The minor changes outlined are changes such as typographical errors and factual updates. The Council is proposing Main Modifications to the Publication Draft CSDP (June 2018) which are contained in this schedule. These modifications include recommendations from the appointed Inspector and are modifications that materially affect the submitted Plan and are required to ensure that the plan is sound and legally compliant. The Council has prepared a separate schedule of Additional Modifications. The modifications are set out in plan order. Where it has not been possible to show information (such as tables, diagrams and maps) within the schedule, these are provided in Appendix 1. The following format has been used to denote modifications: • Additions to text or new/amended/deleted figures/tables are shown as underlined.

  • Sunderland Has Ambitious Regeneration Plans That Will Create Over 20,000 New Jobs by 2024, Creating Huge Demand for City-Centre Property
    - PRESENTS - SUNDERLAND HAS AMBITIOUS REGENERATION PLANS THAT WILL CREATE OVER 20,000 NEW JOBS BY 2024, CREATING HUGE DEMAND FOR CITY-CENTRE PROPERTY The experts at Aspen Woolf look at why Sunderland offers excellent property investment opportunities. Sunderland is a great example of a northern city that was once a manufacturing giant in decline now finding its way to a brighter future thanks to regeneration and development. The north eastern maritime city is benefiting from local and national government investment. As part of the Northern Powerhouse drive to redress the balance between major cities in the north and those that are further south, Sunderland is on an upward trajectory. This comprehensive regeneration effort makes Sunderland one of the most attractive investment opportunities for property investors. Tel: +44 (0)203 176 0060 | Email: [email protected] Property investment in Sunderland is an excellent opportunity A steadily increasing population, more job opportunities and plans for the future make Sunderland and other northern cities attractive investment propositions for investors looking for lower initial costs and higher yields. Right now, Sunderland is in the midst of a major regeneration strategy called Sunderland 3,6,9 Vision: Transforming Our City. This strategy aims to boost the city and bring it more in line with the wider Northern Powerhouse initiative. It involves investing £1.5 billion into the city across different projects. Not only will the city’s infrastructure improve, but it’s hoped that the strategy will create 20,000 jobs. Of these 20,000 jobs, 5,000 will be in manufacturing with the creation of the International Advanced Manufacturing Park (IAMP).
