Cllr Jonathan Cutts declared a non-pecuniary interest in PA 3/21/0781 as a neighbour and will not take part in the discussion of this item. 63 Public Open Session A resident of Furzehill asked members to again consider extending the Holt Parish boundary to incorporate the part of Furzehill that is currently in Colehill Parish. This would then make the whole of Furzehill in Holt Parish. This is to protect the future expansion of Wimborne into the Green Belt between Furzehill and Colehill/Wimborne and in view of the forthcoming Dorset Council Community Governance Review where Parish Councils have the opportunity to request changes to governance. The Review commences on 05 August until 28 October 2021. Cllr Jonathan Cutts thanked the resident of Furzehill for his diligent work on this for members information. 64 Dorset Councillors Report – Cllr Robin Cook Stour & Allen Vale Ward See Appendix A.

M. Clifford provided a verbal quotation of approx. £1500.00. The Clerk contacted N O’Hara Funeral Directors and they explained they in fact park outside the Cemetery gates. M. Clifford will quote to take up the uneven concrete path and re- lay with scalpings and shingle however members felt this should be considered later when the new cemetery extension area has been formally purchased.

Highways England advise the A31 Ferndown/West Moors will have traffic management restrictions in place from Monday 09 August to Wednesday 20 October to renew the safety barrier.

This is for those who cannot make the week day working groups but would like to get involved at the weekends. 72 Planning Applications/Matters 3/21/0846/FUL Location: HILLTOP, HARTS LANE, HOLT, BH21 7AR: Change of Use (agricultural to C3) - land adjacent to Hilltop to improve access arrangements. Members resolved unanimously to OBJECT to the change of use of land in the Green Belt to residential which does not infact improve the access and visibility arrangements for this property. Members agreed comments should be reported to the Planning Committee if the Planning Officers recommendation is at variance to the above. 3/21/0963/HOU Location: 5 BURTS COTTAGES, HOLT, BH21 4JW: SINGLE STOREY REAR EXTENSION. Members resolved unanimously to respond with NO OBJECTION to the proposal. 3/21/0141/FUL Location: LITTLE CIMARRON, CLAYFORD, BH21 7BJ: Extend the existing dwelling to create an additional storey and overall re-configuration and refurbishment including refurbishment of the attached stable. Change of use of land to residential curtilage. Members agreed that whilst they have no objection to the proposals for the dwelling, they do OBJECT to the change of use of Green Belt land to residential curtilage. Members agreed comments should be reported to the Planning Committee if the Planning Officers recommendation is at variance to the above. 3/21/0692/HOU Location: MINTERNE, GAUNTS COMMON, BH21 4JR: Erection of a single storey side and rear extension. Members resolved unanimously to respond with NO OBJECTION to the proposal. 3/21/0781/HOU Location: OLD ORCHARD HOUSE, HOLT LANE, HOLT, BH21 7DJ: Single storey rear conservatory and single storey side extension.

Members resolved to OBJECT to the proposal as they can see no justification for changing agricultural land to residential. 3/21/0451 HOU Location: MARENDA, HOLT LANE, BH21 7DH: Raise existing roof ridge height and erect side, front and rear single and two storey extensions. Members resolved unanimously to OBJECT to the proposal which would overdevelop the site, adversely affecting the traditional neighbouring thatched cottage. The design is too large and inappropriate in this location and detrimental to the setting on the Village Green. This proposal is equivalent to the impact of the previous application which was refused in 2018 (3/17/3210) G:\My Drive\Holt Parish Council\Minutes\2021\Minutes Holt PC 28 07 21.doc 96 We would also expect the National Trust as owners of the Village Green to be a consultee on this application. Members agreed comments should be reported to the Planning Committee if the Planning Officers recommendation is at variance to the above. Planning Enforcement Matters Willow Cottage, Holt Road Mannington, BH21 7JY new entrances to property – Clerk to chase up Dorset Council for a response on this enforcement complaint. Horseshoes Farm, Holtwood, BH21 7DR – Clerk to report agricultural land is fenced with close board fencing causing serious harm to the Green Belt and a new access has been made onto the highway. Members discussed their on-going concerns with Dorset Councils Enforcement and agreed to submit a formal question to Dorset Council Full Cabinet to understand why Dorset Council is no longer enforcing breaches of planning law unless under certain criteria they themselves have chosen. The criteria is vague and undefined and the Parish Council is therefore unsupported when reporting breaches on behalf of its residents. 73 Woodland area (old Brickworks) off Queens Copse Lane Working Group to meet on site with a view to setting up a working party to get started on clearing invasive species. 74 Community Governance Review Members considered the residents request during the Public Open Session and it was resolved unanimously to agree with the principle of extending the Holt Parish boundary to incorporate the part of Furzehill currently in Colehill Parish to protect against the future expansion of Wimborne into the Green Belt. Residents of Furzehill will be asked to send their views on this to the Clerk. The clerk has written to Vale Of Allen and is awaiting their comments on the current parish boundary which runs directly through the centre of Gaunts Common. Clerk to chase up response. 75 Correspondence – circulated to members prior to the meeting DAPTC 2021 Annual General Meeting will be held Saturday 13th November 10:00 to be held virtually.

    National Character 135. Dorset Heaths Area profile: Supporting documents www.naturalengland.org.uk 1 National Character 135. Dorset Heaths Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper,1 Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention,3 we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas North (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which East follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features England that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each London area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental South East Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. South West The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

  • WMTC Response to Dorset Council's Draft Local Plan
    WMTC Response to Dorset Council’s Draft Local Plan 1. Introductory Comments Wimborne Minster Town Council (WMTC) is unable to support the draft Dorset Council Local Plan in its current form. These introductory comments give an overview of the reasons why and the following sections provide more detail and background to support those reasons. If required, detailed base data that links to specific wording, para/page numbers in the Plan or evidence documents can be provided for Dorset Council’s reference. The draft Plan contains numerous erroneous, contradictory, and out of date material. Whilst undoubtedly a great deal of work has gone into such a large project, so long as significant errors contained within the documents still exist, the recommendations/ proposals within it are clearly unreliable and cannot be justified. An appendix of factual inaccuracies is attached to this report. Particularly concerning and hugely significant examples are: - the stated population for Wimborne and Colehill varies from 8,700 to 13,300 in supporting documentation, both are under assessed; and - that Wimborne Minster has an Upper School (QE School is not actually within the parish of Wimborne Minster but in the adjoining Parish of Pamphill which is in walking distance from the Town). This throws doubt on the validity of all the proposals. It is with great concern that claims can be made which are clearly untrue/ unachievable such as the suggestion that if WMC 6 goes ahead it will take 15 minutes by public transport from Wimborne to Dorchester! There are omissions and inconsistencies within the Plan including the absence of a Council-wide spatial and transport strategy, Strategic Housing Needs Assessment, Retail Study and Town Centre Needs Assessment amongst other key documentation.

Excluding listed places of worship, for which the survey is still incomplete,1,150 assets have been removed for positive reasons since the Register was launched in 2008.The sites that remain at risk tend to be the more intractable ones where solutions are taking longer to implement. While the overall number of buildings at risk has fallen, the average conservation deficit for each property has increased from £260k (1999) to £370k (2012).We are also seeing a steady increase in the proportion of buildings that are capable of beneficial re-use – those that have become redundant not because of any fundamental lack of potential, but simply as the temporary victims of the current economic climate. The South West headlines for 2012 reveal a mixed picture. We will continue to fund Monument Management It is good news that 8 buildings at risk have been removed Schemes which, with match-funding from local authorities, from the Register; less good that another 15 have had to offer a cost-effective, locally led approach to tackling be added.

  • Wimborne Minster Town Council and Colehill Parish Council – a Statement of Common Ground
    Christchurch Borough and East Dorset District Councils Core Strategy/Local Plan Examination in Public. Wimborne Minster Town Council and Colehill Parish Council – A Statement of Common Ground. The Wimborne Minster Town and Colehill Parish Councils have agreed the following Statement of Common Ground concerning the East Dorset and Christchurch Core Strategy, in particular Chapter 8 titled “Wimborne/Colehill Housing and Town Centre”, and other relevant documents submitted for consideration at the Examination in Public. Both Councils welcome planned development over the next 15 years, and especially the increased emphasis on the provision of social housing which has been lacking in recent years. However, both Councils consider the scale of residential development proposed for Wimborne/Colehill within the 15 year planning period (2447 new dwellings including both urban and non urban) is not only grossly disproportionate within the District as a whole (46%) but is also grossly excessive for the two Settlements (a 39% increase in households, 46% increase in the combined populations, plus an additional 3650 or more private vehicles). Neither Council believes that the sustainability of the proposed developments has been proven: key studies to this effect (transport and traffic, site-specific flood risk assessments, groundwater source analyses) are yet to be carried out. Nor do the two Councils believe that the infrastructure requirements have been thought through sufficiently, particularly the provision of school places, medical facilities, and sewerage capacity. We remain most concerned about the impact of increased traffic on an already congested road system. The extant (2010) Wimborne Transport Model Study reveals no less than a 45% increase in “general traffic around the town”, considerably greater increases in the volume of traffic on certain key roads (Leigh, Cranborne, Middlehill, and others), and the majority of the 21 key road junctions studied becoming “near, at, or over capacity” or “of concern” (i.e.

  • Colehill Parish Council Response to Dorset
    COLEHILL PARISH COUNCIL RESPONSE TO DORSET COUNCIL LOCAL PLAN ISSUED FOR CONSULTATION JANUARY 2021 Colehill Parish Council object to the Local Plan for the seven reasons detailed below: 1. The scale of the housing allocation for Colehill is excessive • The Local Plan includes new housing allocations for 11,195 houses across Dorset in the next 17 years (sect 2.7). • The population of Colehill Parish is 7,190, based on the 2016 parish level population estimates on Dorset Insights, which is 1.9% of the Dorset County population 378,510. • Based on 1.9% of the total housing allocation, a ‘fair’ housing allocation is 213 houses. • The actual number proposed is 495, more than double the ‘fair’ figure. • Colehill is also likely to see c. 186 houses constructed on Small & Minor sites (sect 2.7.17), based on 1.9% of 9,808. In total this means 681 houses, a 22% increase on our current housing stock of 3,087. • In addition two sites with existing consents at Cranborne & Leigh Road have 786 houses still to be developed. These sites are on land that was in Colehill Parish until being transferred to Wimborne in 2015 when these developments commenced. Including these sites gives a total of 1,467 houses, a 47.5% increase on the housing in the area, and more than six times the ‘fair’ figure. • Such a large increase is grossly excessive for a parish the size of Colehill to absorb, particularly as we have limited infrastructure and a crowded road network. 2. The housing allocation is focused too heavily on East Dorset • The map on page 2 (figure 1) shows the approximate position of each of the new housing allocations proposed, in total 11,195 houses: ‒ Each circle has been sized to reflect the number of houses proposed at that site.
