The document is referred to herein as the ‘Interim SA/SEA Report’. What is the Central and Eastern Berkshire – Joint Minerals and Waste Plan? Bracknell Forest Council, Reading Borough Council, the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead and Wokingham Borough Council (collectively referred to as ‘Central & Eastern Berkshire Authorities’) are working in partnership to produce a Joint Minerals & Waste Plan (JMWP) which will guide minerals and waste decision-making in the Plan area for the period up to 2036. The JMWP is at Draft Plan stage and provides a draft Vision, Objectives and Policies to guide minerals and waste planning decisions, as well as proposed site allocations put forward to achieve the Plan’s Vision: JWMP (Draft Plan) Vision ‘In recognition of the importance of the area as a source of minerals, the Central & Eastern Berkshire Authorities will aim to ensure the maintenance of a steady and adequate supply of minerals, whilst maximising the contribution that minerals development can bring to local communities, the economy and the natural environment. Waste will be managed in a sustainable way, in accordance with the waste hierarchy. We will work in collaboration with others to ensure the best environmental solution to waste management is delivered. The Plan will also ensure that the full extent of social, economic and environmental benefits of minerals and waste development are captured, contributing to the Central and Eastern Berkshire’s economic activity and enhancing quality of life and living standards within the area, whilst minimising impacts on the natural environment.’ What are Sustainability Appraisal and Strategic Environmental Assessment? When preparing a minerals and waste local plan, authorities are legally required to undertake a Sustainability Appraisal (SA) and Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) of the plan. These assessments are required by the Environmental Assessment of Plans and Programmes Regulations 2004 and the EU Strategic Environmental Assessment Directive (2001/42/EC). These two processes have been combined into this Interim SA/SEA Report. Sustainability Appraisal ensures that the social, economic and environmental effects are identified and appraised. The purpose of the SA/SEA is to provide a Interim SA/SEA Report (June 2018) 1 high level consideration of the environment, and ensure that environmental and sustainability considerations have been properly integrated into the plan. It aims to make the JWMP more sustainable and responsive to its environmental effects, by identifying the JMWP significant impacts and ways of minimising its negative effects. The SA/SEA Methodology The SA/SEA Process Under the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, the authorities are required to undertake a Sustainability Appraisal (SA) of this emerging Joint Minerals and Waste Plan. SA seeks to promote sustainable development by integrating sustainability considerations in to the preparation and adoption of policies, plans and programmes. SA is required in order to deliver national sustainability objectives. This is also supported by provisions within National Planning Policy Framework and the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Directive. According to Government policy1, SA should ‘be an integral part of the plan preparation process, and should consider

  • Borough Local Plan: Submission Version (2017) 1 Foreword
    Borough Local Plan 2013 - 2033 Submission version Borough Local Plan: Submission Version (2017) 1 Foreword Foreword by Leader of the Council and the Lead Member for Planning We are delighted to present the Borough Local Plan for the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead. The Borough Local Plan promotes a sustainable pattern of development for the Borough until 2033. The new development that is proposed in this plan aims to provide for new housing and affordable housing to fulfil the needs of all of our residents, whilst at the same time protecting our valued natural and built historic environment and assets. The plan aims to protect and enhance those elements that make our Borough special in the eyes of not only our residents but all those who choose to visit, work and invest in the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead. We are privileged to be home to one of the most recognisable and valued historic assets in the country, Windsor Castle and the Windsor Great Park which the Borough Local Plan seeks to protect not only for our own benefit but also for future generations. The Borough Local Plan is based on a substantial and robust evidence base and on the results of the consultation exercises we have carried out in the past, as guided by national policy and legislation. We have worked with partners including our neighbouring local authorities, statutory bodies and local communities and agencies, as well as considering the many emerging and adopted Neighbourhood Development Plans being prepared by parishes and neighbourhood forums. Planning often presents difficult choices and requires a balance of national policy and local wishes.

There should be a footpath from Holyport village all the way to TI4 Holyport College. Cycle routes should not have frequent give way stops. The whole point of easy cycling is to get going and keep going. Agree. However I am concerned that from time to time some of our lovely village pubs put up marquees and close for private functions.

  • Jealott's Hill, Warfield Technical Summary
    JEALOTT’S HILL, WARFIELD TECHNICAL SUMMARY/OVERVIEW NOTE ON ECOLOGICAL CONSTRAINTS AND OPPORTUNITIES Executive Summary Development at the Jealott’s Hill site offers the opportunity to create extensive areas of new species and wildflower-rich mesotrophic grassland, through the reversion of arable land and through the diversification of existing improved grassland currently in agricultural use. Small patches of existing more diverse semi-improved grassland around the current research campus buildings could also form the basis of a significant project to create or restore new areas of ‘lowland meadow’ priority habitat; either through their retention and positive management in situ to promote enhancement, or through the use of the soil seed bank in these areas to diversify larger parts of the rural hinterland of the estate currently in agricultural use. Existing species-rich hedgerows can also be subject to positive future management using traditional conservation-friendly methods such as laying, with older hedgerows prioritised for retention within the layout, and new species-rich native hedgerows planted in conjunction with the proposals. Existing ponds can be subject to ecological restoration to improve their suitability for a range of species including aquatic invertebrates, amphibians, foraging bats and hunting Grass Snake. The habitats present both on site and in the wider area are likely to support a range of fauna of varying ecological importance including; amphibians, reptiles, breeding and overwintering birds (particularly farmland birds), mammals such as bats and Badgers, and invertebrate assemblages. The scale of the proposals and large areas of proposed Green Infrastructure being brought forward will provide the means to deliver new habitat for these species and this will be informed by further ecological survey work in due course.
