    Portland ERF Design and access statement 4 Building envelope - facade development 4848 Portland ERF Design and access statement PORTLAND BILL 4949 Portland ERF Design and access statement BUILDING ENVELOPE - FACADE DEVELOPMENT 4.1 INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION 4.1.1 This section sets out the design principles that have been considered to further enhance the design and firmly embed the proposals within its setting. 4.1.2 As noted above the massing has looked to draw inspiration from the geological formations and more recent man made activity that shapes the Isle of Portland. 4.1.3 The design of the building’s facade and material selection looks to build on this with inspiration being taken from the distinctive steep escarpments and vegetation of East Weare. 5050 MATERIALS 4.1.4 The massing of the building, as set out in the previous section, has resulted in the creation of two distinct volumes, the RDF store and Turbine Hall and the boiler and Exhaust Air Filtration Room. Whilst the design of the elevations might include further, subtle articulation, it is proposed that the elevational treatment and materials reflects the two volumes to create a calm, simple aesthetic. 4.1.5 It is proposed that one volume is clad in white to light grey cladding reflecting the exposed limestone cliff faces, whilst the second volume picks up on the green scrub vegetation of the lower escarpments helping the building recess into the landscape behind, when viewed from the AONB and WHS. 4.1.6 The following pages look at how the materials should be distributed and the detailed facade design which all combine to create a cohesive building composition.

Portland presents a complex and unique set of circumstances that needs very careful consideration and planning. We are grateful that the Localism Act 2012 has provided the community with the opportunity to get involved in that planning and to put in place a Neighbourhood Plan that must be acknowledged by developers. We must adhere to national planning policy and conform to the strategic policies of the West Dorset, Weymouth and Portland Local Plan. Beyond that, we are free to set the land use policies that we feel are necessary. Over the past three years much research, several surveys, lots of consultation and considerable discussion has been carried out by a working group of local people.

  • Green Flag Management Spaces for Gardens
    Introduction This document details the management of Green Flag gardens in Weymouth & Portland with the overall aim of maintaining and improving, where required, the quality of the gardens in terms of both physical features and the psychological benefits people gain from them. Historically there were three management plans and during the life time of the plans significant resources were used in an overhaul of the Green Flag gardens. The Council is now focused on a period of refinement in line with emerging needs. To do this, it is necessary to consider how the gardens fit within the priorities and policies of the Local Authority and to see how they are used and valued by the local and wider communities. Weymouth & Portland Borough Council has chosen to focus on the Green Flag Award as a means of raising and maintaining the standards of green spaces within the borough. The structure of this document follows Green Flag criteria. The shared aspects of garden management aims are: • To promote the application of Green Flag standards across the borough thereby raising standards overall. • To streamline the Green Flag Award application process in order to maximise resources available for consultation and the implementation of garden improvements. • To enable, as a result, an increase in the number of green spaces that Weymouth & Portland Borough Council can put forward for a Green Flag Award. Supporting Information For the purpose of the Green Flag desk top evaluation, an evidence folder containing further background information will be provided on the day of the site visit. The folder will contain information relating to operations, improvements, events, etc.

    (A Neighbourhood Plan for Portland, Dorset) Evidence Report April 2014 2 Portland Neighbourhood Plan Evidence Report Contents: Topic Sections: page: Introduction 3 Natural Environment & Built Environment 4 People & Housing 38 Business & Employment 60 Roads & Transport 90 Community & Social Facilities 102 Leisure & Recreation 118 Arts, Culture & Tourism 132 Appendix A 152 © Portland Town Council, 2014 Portland Neighbourhood Plan Evidence Report April 2014 3 Introduction Purpose Planning policy and proposals need to be based on a proper understanding of the place they relate to, if they are to be relevant, realistic and address local issues effectively. It is important that the Neighbourhood Plan is based on robust information and analysis of the local area; this is called the ‘evidence base’. Unless policy is based on firm evidence and proper community engagement, then it is more likely to reflect the assumptions and prejudices of those writing it than to reflect the needs of the wider area and community. We are advised that “the evidence base needs to be proportionate to the size of the neighbourhood area and scope and detail of the Neighbourhood Plan. Other factors such as the status of the current and emerging Local Plan policies will influence the depth and breadth of evidence needed. It is important to remember that the evidence base needs to reflect the fact that the plan being produced here will have statutory status and be used to decide planning applications in the neighbourhood area. It is necessary to develop a clear understanding of the neighbourhood area and policy issues covered; but not to review every piece of research and data in existence – careful selection is needed.”1 The evidence base for the Portland Neighbourhood plan comprises the many reports, documents and papers we have gathered (these are all listed in Appendix A, and are made available for reference via the Neighbourhood Plan website.

    RSPB SOUTH DORSET LOCAL GROUP NEWSLETTER No 58 January 2011 The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) is a registered charity: England and Wales no. 207076, Scotland no.SC037654 The RSPB speaks out for birds and wildlife, tackling the problems that threaten our environ- ment. Nature is amazing - help us keep it that way We belong to BirdLife International, the global partnership of bird conservation organizations . GROUP LEADERS COLUMN By the time this newsletter reaches you we will have had our last meeting in the town hall and returned to St Georges Church hall Fordington. This venue has free parking but this is limited to 20-30 vehicles. Please share cars wherever possible. After the first two meetings at St Georges in 2010 there were complaints of speaker inaudibility. The group has now bought a loudspeaker system to eliminate this problem in future. The speaker at the first 2011 meeting will be John Wyatt who will talk on ‘Pharaohs Birds’ I am pleased to announce an additional indoor meeting in a new venue and at a new time. The committee have been conscious for some time that many group members in Weymouth no longer attend indoor meetings. We have therefore arranged a meeting in the village hall at Preston at 2.30 pm on Friday March 4 th . Group member Don Cotton will talk on ‘Garden Birds’. If this meeting is successful we would hope to have several additional meetings in the Weymouth area in future years. I hope many of you will come along and support this innovation.

Pennsylvania Castle Estate cannot work in isolation from what is happening around us. Colonial Leisure, owners of the Estate, believe that businesses can work sustainably in a way that supports our commercial goals and staff while achieving positive change in the local community and environment. Great words, but what does it look like in practice? For many years we have had goals to contribute to the environment, community, heritage, and culture on the Island. This is through a range of programmes which are Island centric. Some examples would be; the partnership with Portland Museum to develop the Church Ope Trail, the rollout of solar power and electric car chargers, sustainable management of our valuable trees, and working with community groups. We have been very proud of our support of the Islands rich culture. While we have held outdoor cinemas and theatres, it's b-side that we most look forward to supporting b-side understands the potential of the relationship between businesses and the arts as a powerful change agent. For the Estate the festival brings together those elements of environment, community, heritage, and culture in one place. The Estate team is committed to assisting b-side to continue to be a big feature of Island culture for years to come.
