Introduction 1.1 The purpose of this Topic Paper is to outline the Council’s approach to identifying the proposed housing, mixed use and purpose built student accommodation (PBSA) site allocations set out in Policies H1, H2, H3 and SSA1 to SSA4 of the Draft City Plan Part Two (CPP2). 1.2 The Paper has been updated to reflect the further work undertaken following the consultation on the Draft CPP2 in July-September 2018. 2. Background 2.1 City Plan Part One (CPP1) sets out the strategic planning framework for the city to 2030 with strategic policies that set the overall amounts of new development to be delivered across the city and the broad locations where significant new housing development will take place. Part Two of the City Plan builds on this strategic framework by identifying and allocating additional sites, particularly for new housing development to facilitate the delivery of sufficient new housing over the Plan period (2010 – 2030) to meet the adopted strategic housing target. 2.2 CPP1 Policy CP1 (Housing Delivery) identified that the Council will make provision for at least 13,200 new homes to be built over the Plan period, equating to an annual average rate of provision of 660 dwellings. 2.3 Eight broad ‘Development Areas’ are identified within the city where major development is expected to be concentrated (Policies DA1 – DA8) and strategic site allocations within these allocate housing and mixed use sites providing a total of 3,635 new homes. A further allowance for around 1,060 units is made for some development on greenfield sites in the city’s urban fringe as a whole based on information in the 2014 Urban Fringe Assessment1. No specific sites on the urban fringe were allocated in CPP1, with the exception of Toads Hole Valley (Policy DA7). 2.4 Significant further capacity for housing is identified in the council’s Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA) which is updated annually. These sources, along with a further ‘call for sites’ exercise at the scoping stage consultation, have been used to inform further site allocations for housing in the Draft City Plan Part Two. 1 ‘Brighton & Hove Urban Fringe Assessment’, Land Use Consultants, June 2014. Available to download at www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/content/planning/planning-policy/city-plan-part-one-background-studies 3 3. Overarching Approach in City Plan Part Two 3.1 The housing and mixed use site allocations in CPP2 are divided into four categories, each covered by separate policies. These are: • Housing and Mixed Use Sites (Policy H1) • Housing Sites - Urban Fringe (Policy H2) • Purpose Built Student Accommodation (Policy H3) • Strategic Site Allocations (Policies SSA1 – SSA4) 3.2 The process undertaken to identify sites suitable for allocation under each category and to draw up policies is set out in Sections 4-6 below. 4. Housing and Mixed Use Site Allocations (Policy H1) 4.1 The approach taken to identify brownfield site allocations for inclusion in Policy H1 is described below. It has been undertaken in tandem with successive updates to the council’s Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA)2. The SHLAA is an annual assessment of land that has potential for housing and includes estimated timescales for when sites are likely to be delivered. It is a technical document that does not allocate land for development. Sustainability Appraisal of options for allocating housing and mixed use sites Three broad options for the approach to the site allocation process were identified. These were: • Option 1: Do not allocate any sites for housing. Rely on the market to bring forward suitable sites. • Option 2: Allocate all sites in the SHLAA (long list) that do not have planning permission and those that have planning permission but have not yet commenced, that are considered deliverable within the plan period to 2030. • Option 3: Allocate sites in the SHLAA (long list) capable of delivering 10 or more residential units, that do not have planning permission and those that have planning permission but have not yet commenced, that are deliverable within the plan period. The three options were subjected to a sustainability appraisal process3. This assessed the potential impacts of pursuing each option against a number of sustainability indicators in order to establish which option was most likely to result in the greatest sustainability benefits. Overall, Option 3 had more potential for positive impacts across a greater range of sustainability appraisal objectives, and less potential for adverse impacts than the two other options, including potential for positive impact for biodiversity, landscape, housing, best use of land, access, health and economic development. Although Option 2 had greater potential for more significant positive impacts for housing delivery when compared with options 1 and 3, the flexibility of Option 3 for smaller sites could result in greater citywide benefits, e.g. for making the best use of land, for economic development, and for access to services, as this would allow other uses to come forward in response to market conditions, 2 www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/content/planning/planning-policy/strategic-housing-land-availability-assessment 3 The process is set out in detail in the Sustainability Appraisal Report. 4 whilst still allowing residential uses to come forward. Overall, Option 2 was found to be too prescriptive and lacked flexibility, particularly for smaller sites. Option 1 was found to be very flexible, however lacked certainty for developers and may inhibit overall housing delivery, and when Option 3 is compared with Option 1, the certainty of allocating larger SHLAA sites was considered to be more positive for housing delivery. 1) Initial Identification of Sites 4.2 The starting point for the initial identification of sites was the SHLAA Update 2016, published in February 2017. 4.3 Additional sites were identified from the data sources set out in Table 1 to form the initial list of sites for consideration. At this stage 297 sites were under consideration. Data Source Description Call for sites from 2016 scoping The City Plan Part Two scoping consultation in 2016 included a call consultation for sites to be put forward as possible housing site allocations (Use Class C3). All sites put forward were assessed using SHLAA assessment template and added to the SHLAA if considered suitable for housing development Planning applications Sites identified through the planning application processes and discussions with developers/agents. This included applications under consideration as well as determined. Information from other Council For example sites identified through discussions with the Council’s departments Estates Regeneration Team Commercial property databases Sites advertised as being available for development on commercial property databases Table 1 – Sources of data for additional sites considered 2) Production of SHLAA long list 4.4 The following sites were excluded to form an initial ‘SHLAA long list’ for further consideration as they were either already allocated or no longer available: • City Plan Part 1 strategic site allocations – these are sites that are already allocated for new development in CPP1; • Sites with planning permissions that had commenced. Unimplemented permissions were retained on the long list and timescales for likely

  • Urban People and Wildlife : Biodiversity Action Plan for the Urban Areas of Sussex
    Habitat Action Plan for Sussex Urban People and Wildlife : Biodiversity Action Plan for the Urban Areas of Sussex 1. Introduction and Definition One of the most urgent environmental problems we are facing in the 21 st Century is the loss of global biodiversity. As 90% of the population live in cities, towns and villages, it is here that this loss will have the most impact on our quality of life. The increasing density and the intensity of urban living has a major impact on the environment and our use of natural resources. Although we are part of the problem, we are also part of the solution. People and Wildlife : Biodiversity Action Plan for the Urban Areas of Sussex sets out the action necessary to maintain and enhance the variety of life all around us. The underlying principle of People and Wildlife (Sussex Urban BAP) is that a healthy environment is an essential requirement for both our quality of life and for wildlife. We can achieve this through changing our attitudes and actions towards the natural environment within our everyday lives by: • Encouraging everyone to make environmentally informed decisions as our actions can and do affect the environment; • Looking at actions we can take as individuals or as members of a community based group, part of a school or college, employer or employee of a business or as decision-makers who help shape local policies; • Recognising that biodiversity is an essential indicator of the health of the environment and hence our quality of life. The Government has made clear the links between biodiversity, quality of life and sustainable development.

  • Buswatch News – January 2020 Bus Fares
    Brighton Area Buswatch A branch of Bus Users (formerly Bus Users UK) representing local bus users Buswatch News – January 2020 Bus fares special – Changes explained Fares on all bus services within Brighton & Hove changed this month. Most changes mean higher fares but some short distance fares were reduced and a few were unchanged. Stagecoach fares went up first, on 5 January followed by Brighton & Hove and other operators on 14 January. On Stagecoach buses the standard single fare within the Brighton & Hove fare zone is now £2.55. A return costs £4.40, and a day ticket Just 10p more, but travel a few stops beyond Shoreham High Street and the fares from Brighton almost double to £4.90 single or £8.20 return. The best value fare is undoubtedly the £2.50 evening ticket valid after 1900, which is unchanged. Spare a thought for bus users in Worthing who pay £6.20 for a Worthing area day ticket, almost £2 more than Stagecoach charges in Brighton & Hove and £1 more than on Brighton & Hove Buses in the City Saver area. Brighton & Hove Bus Company fares are also adopted by Metrobus and by Compass and The Big Lemon within the city whose services run under contract to Brighton & Hove City Council. The best news is that some short hop fares have been reduced from £2 or £2.20 to £1.90. However, the distance covered by the £1.90 fare varies considerably. From Brighton Marina £1.90 takes you Just one stop to Lidl on a 7 or 23, while it covers two miles east to Rottingdean on a 14B or 47 (and also from Marine Gate on a 12, 12A, 14, 14C or 27), or all around Whitehawk on the 21A.

  • Annual Report 2012 – 2013
    Brighton & Hove City Council CityParks Ranger and Countryside Services Annual Report 2012 – 2013 CONSERVATION Grazing The main conservation work that Rangers are involved with is the maintenance and reclamation of chalk grassland habitat within the city. Much of this conservation work is done as sheep grazing. Last year grazing as part of this project started for the first time on 19 Acres Tenantry Down Home Farm Road section of Wild Park Permanent fencing was established at 19 Acres Parts of Wild Park Tenantry Down Wild Bank (Bevendean) Parts of Waterhall Clearance work for fence lines was carried out by the CityParks Volunteers, Brighton Conservation Volunteers, and Community Payback. Over the past year eleven sites covering nearly 100 Ha where grazed these include Wild Park Stanmer Park Bevendean Waterhall Green Ridge Tenantry Down Whitehawk Hill Benfield Hill Beacon Hill Sheepcote Valley 19 Acres Over 100 lookeres or urban shepherds volunteered to help check the fences and the welfare of the sheep used to graze the sites. Woodland Woodland conservation increased over the last year with two sites setting up conservation groups to help with the management of this habitat. Hazel coppicing has continued in Stanmer Great Wood with Rangers organising the Sussex Wildlife Trust and the Cityparks Volunteers to carry out the work. The most significant woodland management work has been carried out by contractors in Coney Wood as part of the project funded by Keep the Ridge Green who where awarded nearly £30,000 from the Heritage Lottery Fund.

  • Multi-Million Pound Hove Gardens Redevelopment Scheme Being Revived Neil Vowles / the Argus Friday 13 November 2015
    Multi-million pound Hove Gardens redevelopment scheme being revived Neil Vowles / The Argus Friday 13 November 2015 Retrieved from http://www.theargus.co.uk/news/14029374.Multi_million_pound_ Hove_Gardens_redevelopment_scheme_being_revived/ on 14th November 2015 13:30 An artist's impression of the new development proposed for Conway Street in Hove by Matsim Properties PLANS for a new multi-million pound development of nearly 200 homes, dozens of offices and shops have been revealed. Matsim Properties have unveiled proposals for the transformation of industrial units in the heart of Hove into high-rise modern housing, offices and retail space. The Sussex-based firm hope the plans could be the beginning of a much larger development to revive a tired-looking section of the city. The company’s Hove Square project, which proposed office space for 1,250 jobs, a nine-screen Vue cinema, a supermarket and 380 homes collapsed in 2012. The new Hove Gardens project in Conway Street would see the demolition of three industrial units to be replaced, providing 178 apartments, 21,500 sq ft of "employment space" and 2,500 sq ft of small flexible use space at ground level with room for expansion for start ups and small businesses. Apartment blocks rising up to 15 storeys in height would be finished with rooftop allotments, communal gardens and potential for a pop-up bar and cinema. Homes would vary between one to three bedrooms and could be a mixture of owner occupied, shared ownership and private renting. A public consultation on the plan is scheduled for next Saturday and plans could be sitting on council officers’ desks by December.

  • East Cliff Conservation Area Study and Enhancement Plan
    EAST CLIFF CONSERVATION AREA STUDY AND ENHANCEMENT PLAN Director Of Environment September 2002 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 East Cliff was designated as a conservation area in February 1973 in recognition of it being an area of special architectural and historic interest, due to its clear association with the growth of Brighton as a Regency and Victorian seaside resort. The conservation area was confirmed as “outstanding” by the Secretary of State for the Environment in January 1974. It was then extended to the north in January 1977, June 1989 and June 1991. East Cliff covers an area of approximately 60 hectares and contains 589 statutory listed buildings plus 86 buildings on the local list. 1.2 This document contains an appraisal of the special architectural and historic interest of the conservation area, which is based upon a summary of the history and development of the area. It then goes on to recommend extensions to the boundary of the conservation area, under the terms of Section 69(2) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. Part five of the Study identifies buildings of local interest and buildings and sites which detract from the area. The Enhancement Plan aspect of this document has been prepared under Section 71 of the above-mentioned Act and sets out action that should be taken in order to preserve and enhance the special character and appearance of the area. 1.3 No estimate exists of the population of East Cliff as it covers parts of two separate wards and neighbourhoods. However, it has been estimated by the council that there are in the region of 10,500 households in the conservation area.
