Sevenoaks District Council Local Plan Consultation (August 2017) SEVENOAKS DISTRICT COUNCIL LOCAL PLAN CONSULTATION (AUGUST 2017) The Council is launching the Local Plan Issues and Options consultation on 3rd August 2017 and this will run until 5pm on 5th October 2017. This document is available on the Council’s website (www.sevenoaks.gov.uk/issuesandoptions). It can also be purchased for £10 from SDC offices (Argyle Road, Sevenoaks) or viewed at District libraries. The first step to forming the new Local Plan is to ask people who live, work and relax in the District for their opinions. We have tried to identify the ‘issues’ that the District will face over the next twenty years, based on the evidence we have gathered so far, and suggest ‘options’ for dealing with them. We are consulting on the high-level strategy for the future development of the District, rather than consulting on the future of individual sites, which will take place in early 2018. How you can have your say: By completing our online survey at www.sevenoaks.gov.uk/issuesandoptions Everyone who takes part will be entered into a prize draw, where you could win one of three Amazon gift cards worth £250, £150 and £50. The prize draw will be take place in October. By email to [email protected]; or By post to Planning Policy, Sevenoaks District Council, Council Offices, Argyle Road, Sevenoaks, TN13 1HG Consultation Arrangements The consultation period runs from 3rd August to 5th October 2017 at 5pm.

  • A Community Vision for Hartley
    A Community Vision for Hartley March 2018 2 A Vision - Hartley Urban Extension A Community Vision for Hartley Prepared by DHA Planning on behalf of Billings Group, the Leigh Academies Trust and Chapel Wood Enterprises. March 2018 A Community Vision for Hartley This submission is made to Sevenoaks District Council in support of a proposed expansion to Hartley and Longfield, in order to assist with the Council’s projected housing need for the emerging Local Plan. The Council have identified a need for at least 12,400 houses in Sevenoaks District between 2013 - 2033 (an annualised target of 620 dwellings per annum). There is therefore a need for the Council to assess the most sustainable forms of development to meet this housing need – through the process of a robust Sustainability Appraisal process – and this document seeks to provide the Council will the necessary information to fully appraise the site, and also to compare to other, perhaps less sustainable options put forward. We believe this site is located within a sustainable location, adjoining the existing settlements, outside of the AONB which has a good level of services and infrastructure. What is also of note is that this proposal would allow for the enhancement of this existing provision and also a number of additional community benefits, which would not otherwise come forward as a result of the other or disbursed development. These benefits include: • The provision of a new 3FE Primary and SEN Academy (to replace and enhance the existing Hartley primary school offer) in agreement

  • Review of Polling Districts, Polling Places and Polling Stations : Consultation Document
    Review of polling districts, polling places and polling stations : Consultation document Introduction All district councils are required to complete a review of polling districts and polling places every five years, ahead of scheduled Parliamentary General Elections. This particular review must, by law, be completed by 31 January 2020, although best practice dictates it should be concluded, where practicable, in advance of the publication of the next revised Register of Electors on 1 December 2019 to enable any changes to take effect from that date. The purpose of the review is to ensure electors are given “such reasonable facilities for voting as are practicable in the circumstances.” As part of the statutory review, contributions from the (Acting) Returning Officers for the Parliamentary Constituencies that represent the district should be sought. As such, Sevenoaks District Council has consulted with the (Acting) Returning Officers for the Dartford, Sevenoaks and Tonbridge & Malling constituencies, and their contributions are included within this consultation document. This consultation document contains an assessment of existing and proposed polling districts and polling places within the district. Commenting on the proposed recommendations We welcome the views of all residents, particularly disabled residents, or any person or body with expertise in access for persons with any type of disability, on the proposals within this consultation document. Anyone making representations should, if relevant, give alternative places that may be used as polling places. The consultation period runs from 31 July 2019 to 1 October 2019. Any changes are expected to take effect from the publication of the new Register of Electors on 1 December 2019.
