Reason - To prevent the increased risk of flooding by ensuring the satisfactory storage of/disposal of surface water from the site, and ensure future maintenance of the surface water drainage system.

16 The development shall be constructed in accordance with the scheme to minimise the risk of offsite flooding caused by surface water run-off during construction works as detailed in the Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) and Construction Method Statement (CMP) as approved under planning reference 17/01825/DISCON.

Reason - The National Planning Policy Framework states that local planning authorities should ensure flood risk is not increased elsewhere in the development.

Construction may lead to excess water being discharged from the site. If dewatering takes place to allow for construction to take place below groundwater level, this will cause additional water to be discharged. Furthermore the removal of topsoil's during construction may limit the ability of the site to intercept rainfall and may lead to increased runoff rates, to mitigate against increased flood risk to the surrounding area during construction therefore, there needs to be satisfactory storage of/disposal of surface water and groundwater which needs to be agreed before commencement of the development.

17 Prior to commencement of the development a Maintenance Plan detailing the maintenance arrangements including who is responsible for different elements of the surface water drainage system and the maintenance activities/frequencies shall be submitted to, and agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority.

Reason - To ensure appropriate maintenance arrangements are put in place to enable the surface water drainage system to function as intended to ensure mitigation against flood risk.

Reason - To ensure the SuDS are maintained for the lifetime of the development as outlined in any approved Maintenance Plan so that they continue to function as intended to ensure mitigation against flood risk.

19 The maximum number of dwellings to be contained in the development shall not exceed 120.

Reason - For the avoidance of doubt and in the interests of proper planning.

01 The National Planning Policy Framework (2019) states that a core planning principle of the local planning authority should include the conservation of heritage assets in a manner appropriate to their significance, so that they can be enjoyed for their contribution to the quality of life of this and future generations. The Framework also attaches great importance to the design of the built environment stating that permission should be refused for development that fails to take the opportunities available for improving the character and quality of an area.

The adopted Local Plan (2007) "Saved" Policies QL9, QL10 and QL11 seek to ensure that all new development makes a positive contribution to the quality of the local environment and character, by ensuring that proposals are well designed, relate satisfactorily to their setting and are of a suitable scale, mass and form. These sentiments are carried forward in Policy SPL3 of the Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Publication Draft (June 2017). Policy EN17 of the Tendring Local Plan 2007 and Policy PPL8 of the Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Publication Draft (June 2017) state that development within a Conservation Area must preserve or enhance the special character or appearance of the Conservation Area.

Saved Policy FW5 of the Tendring District Local Plan (2007) requires new development in the Avenues to have particular regard to the special character and appearance of the area, including the scale, aspect and design of adjoining buildings. This policy also identifies density as a matter to be taken into account and states that development which would result in a reduction in the spacious character of the area will be refused planning permission. The pre- amble of the policy also goes on to state that as the spacious scale of buildings and extensive plot frontages and sizes contribute to the special character of the Avenues, residential densities that may be suitable for infill housing developments elsewhere will be inappropriate in this area. Well designed infill development on plots at least 15 metres wide may be acceptable in some cases, however new dwellings would need to stand on plots that compare favourably with neighbouring houses, thus requiring frontages of significantly more than 15 metres in many cases to avoid any reduction in the special Arcadian character. The sentiments of this are carried forward within Policy PPL11 within the Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Publication Draft (June 2017).

The application site is located within the Frinton and Walton Conservation Area, and "The Avenues" Area of Special Character where development which would result in a reduction in the spacious character of the area will be refused planning permission.

Currently the surrounding area is dominated by detached residential dwellings with plot widths ranging from 15-30m, and building widths ranging between 12m-16m. The proposed development would see an approximate plot width of just 10.7m and building width of 7.5m, which fails to accord with Policy FW5 of the Adopted Local Plan. Therefore, it is considered that the proposed dwelling on this site will be sited on a plot far narrower than surrounding plots. As a result the Council maintains that the dwelling will appear narrow, cramped and out of keeping within the street scene, failing to preserve the character and appearance of the

14 Decisions for the Week Ending 5th July 2019

Application No. Applicant’s Name Proposal Location Decision Date of Decision Conditions/Reasons

Frinton-on-Sea Conservation Area, and will also be detrimental to "The Avenues" Area of Special Character existing special character.

Therefore the proposed development fails to accord with the above policies.

02 Paragraph 109 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2019) states development should only be prevented or refused on highways grounds if there would be an unacceptable impact on highway safety, or the residual cumulative impacts on the road network would be severe.

Policy TR7 of the Adopted Local Plan 2007 states that the adopted car parking standards will be applied. Outside town centres, variations to the adopted standards for residential development will be considered where local circumstances suggest this to be appropriate.

Policy TR1a of the Adopted Local Plan 2007 states proposals for development affecting highways will be considered in relation to the road hierarchy to reducing and preventing hazards and inconvenience to traffic and to the effects on the transport system including the physical and environmental capacity to accommodate the traffic generated. The sentiments of this are carried forward within Policy SPL3 within the Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Publication Draft (June 2017).

Adopted Car Parking Standards state that for a dwelling of two or more bedrooms, provision should be made for a minimum of two parking spaces measuring 5.5m x 2.9m or a garage, if being used as one of the parking space, should have a minimum internal measurement of 7m x 3m.

The submitted plans fail to demonstrate that there is sufficient provision for off street parking spaces with dimensions in accord with the above current Parking Standards. This is likely to lead to vehicles being left parked in the access route or adjacent highway causing conditions of danger, obstruction or congestion contrary to highway safety. Further, the proposal would lead to the intensification of use of the site without sufficient or adequate turning facilities for both dwellings, therefore resulting in the need for vehicles to reverse into the highway, to the detriment of highway safety.

The proposal therefore fails to accord with the above policies.

03 Under the Habitats Regulations, a development which is likely to have a significant effect or an adverse effect (alone or in combination) on a European designated site must provide mitigation or otherwise must satisfy the tests of demonstrating 'no alternatives' and 'reasons of overriding public interest'. There is no precedent for a residential development meeting those tests, which means that all residential development must provide mitigation. This residential development lies within the Zone of Influence of the Essex Coast Recreational disturbance Avoidance and Mitigation Strategy (RAMS). The residents of new housing are therefore considered likely to regularly visit relevant designated sites for recreation. In order to avoid a likely significant effect in terms of increased recreational disturbance to coastal European designated sites (Habitats sites) in particular the Hamford Water RAMSAR and SPA, mitigation measures will need to be in place prior to occupation.

A proportionate financial contribution has not been secured in accordance with the emerging Essex Coast Recreational disturbance Avoidance and Mitigation Strategy (RAMS) requirements. As submitted, there is no certainty that the development would not adversely affect the integrity of Habitats sites.

The proposal is therefore considered to be contrary to Policies EN6 and EN11a of the Saved Tendring District Local Plan 2007, Policy PPL4 of the emerging Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Publication Draft and Regulation 63 of the Conservation of Habitat and Species Regulations 2017. 15 Decisions for the Week Ending 5th July 2019

19/00625/OUT Mr Roger Proposed erection of Land West of Former Balls Green Refusal - Outline Hollington three bedroom detached Methodist Chapel 05.07.2019 bungalow with detached Chapel Lane Delegated garage. Decision Essex CO7 7JT

01 The application site lies outside of any defined settlement development boundary within the adopted Tendring Local Plan 2007 and the Emerging Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Publication Draft 2017.

The National Planning Policy Framework 2019 (NPPF) requires Councils to boost significantly the supply of housing to meet objectively assessed future housing needs in full. In any one year, Councils must be able to identify five years' worth of deliverable housing land against their projected housing requirements (plus an appropriate buffer to ensure choice and competition in the market for land, account for any fluctuations in the market or to improve the prospect of achieving the planned supply). If this is not possible, or housing delivery over the previous three years has been substantially below (less than 75%) the housing requirement, paragraph 11 d) of the NPPF requires applications for housing development needing to be assessed on their merits, whether sites are allocated for development in the Local Plan or not.

At the time of this report, the supply of deliverable housing sites that the Council can demonstrate falls below 5 years and so the NPPF says that planning permission should be granted for development unless the adverse impacts of doing so would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits, when assessed against the policies in the National Planning Policy Framework as a whole. Determining planning applications therefore entails weighing up the various material considerations. The housing land supply shortfall is relatively modest when calculated using the standard method prescribed by the NPPF. In addition, the actual need for housing was found to be much less than the figure produced by the standard method when tested at the recent Examination in Public of the Local plan. Therefore, the justification for reducing the weight attributed to Local Plan policies is reduced as is the weight to be given to the delivery of new housing to help with the deficit.

Whilst it is recognised that there would be conflict with Saved Policy QL1 and Emerging Policy SPL1 in terms of the site being sited outside the settlement development boundary, as stated above, in the context of the 5 year housing land supply paragraph 11 d) of the NPPF requires applications for housing development to be assessed on their merits, whether sites are allocated for development in the Local Plan or not and it is important to consider whether any circumstances outweigh this conflict.

Application No. Applicant’s Name Proposal Location Decision Date of Decision Conditions/Reasons

With regard to the social dimension, this means supporting strong, vibrant and healthy communities by supplying the housing required to meet the needs of present and future generations and creating a high quality environment with accessible local services.

The application site is located in a small hamlet known as Balls Green in between Frating to the south and to the north. As identified in the Council's "Establishing a Settlement Hierarchy" study (April 2016), Balls Green, Hare Green and Frating are amongst the lowest scoring settlements. None of the closest settlements have a school, GP, railway station or shopping facilities. Only Frating is situated on a good bus route that links Clacton and Colchester. The site also does not link to nearby settlements through good levels of footpaths and street lighting. Consequently, it is concluded that the majority of trips, including those for day-to-day needs, would need to be made by car to access essential services and facilities.

In applying the NPPF's presumption in favour of sustainable development, the adverse impacts of the proposal on the Council's ability to manage growth through the plan-led approach, are not outweighed by the benefits. The poor sustainability credentials of the site in terms of the social role and the fact that the development is contrary to the aims of the settlement hierarchy results in the proposal being contrary to the above mentioned policies.

For the reasons set out above the proposal is considered to fail the social objective. This together with the conflict with Saved Policy QL1 of the adopted plan and emerging Policy SPL1 amounts to an unsustainable form of development.

02 Paragraph 189 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2019) states that in determining applications, local planning authorities should require an applicant to describe the significance of any heritage assets affected, including any contribution made by their setting. The level of detail should be proportionate to the assets' importance and no more than is sufficient to understand the potential impact of the proposal on their significance. As a minimum the relevant historic environment record should have been consulted and the heritage assets assessed using appropriate expertise where necessary.

Policy EN23 of the Adopted Plan states that development within the proximity of a Listed Building that would adversely affect the setting of a Listed Building, including group value and long distance views, will not be permitted. The sentiments of this policy are carried forward within policy PPL9 of the Emerging Plan.

The application site is located approximately 25 metres to the south-east of Thickets, a Grade II Listed Building, but is also located adjacent to the south-west of the former Methodist Chapel, which is considered to be a non-designated heritage asset.

In this instance a heritage statement has not been provided, and therefore a full assessment of the buildings' significance has not been provided. Therefore the proposal is not compliant with Paragraph 189 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2019).

03 Under the Habitats Regulations, a development which is likely to have a significant effect or an adverse effect (alone or in combination) on a European designated site must provide mitigation or otherwise must satisfy the tests of demonstrating 'no alternatives' and 'reasons of overriding public interest'. There is no precedent for a residential development meeting those tests, which means that all residential development must provide mitigation. This residential development lies within the Zone of Influence of the Essex Coast Recreational disturbance Avoidance and Mitigation Strategy (RAMS). The residents of new housing are therefore considered likely to regularly visit relevant designated sites for recreation. In order to avoid a likely significant effect in terms of increased recreational disturbance to coastal European designated sites (Habitats sites) in particular Colne Estuary SPA and Ramsar site, mitigation measures will need to be in place prior to occupation. 18 Decisions for the Week Ending 5th July 2019

All matters reserved except for means of access.

01 The proposal seeks outline planning permission for up to 110 dwellings and is contrary to the provisions of The National Planning Policy Framework (2018), Saved Policies QL1 and EN1 of the Adopted Tendring District Local Plan (2007) and Emerging Policies SPL1, SPL2, and PPL3 of the Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Publication Draft (June 2017).

20 Decisions for the Week Ending 5th July 2019

Application No. Applicant’s Name Proposal Location Decision Date of Decision Conditions/Reasons

Planning law requires that applications for planning permission must be determined in accordance with the development plan, unless material considerations indicate otherwise. The application site is not allocated for any form of development and falls outside of the defined settlement development boundary in both the adopted and the emerging Local Plan. Saved Policy QL1 sets out a spatial strategy for Tendring that seeks to direct most new development to the larger urban areas, but allows limited development within the smaller towns and villages where accessibility to employment, services, and public transport is maximised. Emerging Policy SPL2 confirms that within settlement development boundaries there will be a general presumption in favour of new development, subject to detailed consideration against other relevant Local Plan policies.

At the time of this decision, the supply of deliverable housing sites that the Council can demonstrate falls below 5 years and so the NPPF says that planning permission should be granted for development unless the adverse impacts of doing so would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits, when assessed against the policies in the National Planning Policy Framework as a whole. Determining planning applications therefore entails weighing up the various material considerations.

Officers consider that the emerging Local Plan is progressing well, the core planning principles under paragraph 15 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) that development should be genuinely plan-led apply and the Council should actively manage patterns of growth is therefore awarded significant weight. As such therefore it is considered that further development in this location would be contrary to Saved Policy QL1 and Draft Policy SPL2.

Given the positive progress of the Local Plan Officers consider this development to be unsustainable and contrary to the development plan.

02 The proposal seeks outline planning permission for up to 110 dwellings and is contrary to the provisions of The National Planning Policy Framework (2012), Saved Policies COM6, COM26 and HG4 of the Adopted Tendring District Local Plan (2007) and Draft Policies LP5, PP12 and HP5 of the Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Publication Draft (June 2017).

The National Planning Policy Framework (2018) states Local Planning Authorities should consider whether otherwise unacceptable development could be made acceptable through the use of conditions or planning obligations. Planning obligations should only be sought where they meet all of the following tests: necessary to make the development acceptable in planning terms; directly related to the development; and fairly and reasonably related in scale and kind to the development.

Saved Policy HG4 of the Tendring District Local Plan (2007) requires up to 40% of new dwellings on residential schemes of 5 or more units to be provided in the form of affordable housing to meet the needs of people that are unable to access property on the open market. Emerging Policy LP5 of the Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Publication Draft (June 2017), which is based on more up-to-date evidence of housing need and viability, requires for developments of 11 or more dwellings, the Council expect 30% of new dwellings to be made available to Tendring District Council or an alternative provider to acquire at a discounted value for use as affordable housing, or as an alternative, the Council will accept a minimum of 10% if new dwellings are to be made available alongside a financial contribution toward the construction or acquisition of property for use as affordable housing (either on the site or elsewhere in the district) equivalent to delivering the remainder of the 30% requirement. There is a high demand for housing in Lawford and there are currently 215 households on the housing register. There is therefore a need for affordable housing to be delivered on site.

Saved Policy COM26 states where necessary planning permission will only be granted for residential 21 Decisions for the Week Ending 5th July 2019

Application No. Applicant’s Name Proposal Location Decision Date of Decision Conditions/Reasons

developments of 12 or more dwellings if land and/or financial contributions are made to provide the additional school places that will be needed to service the development. Emerging Policy PP12 states planning permission will not be granted for new residential development unless the individual or cumulative impacts of development on education provision can be addressed, at the developer's cost, either on-site or through financial contributions towards off-site improvements.

NHS England have confirmed that the two local GP practices do not have capacity for the residents resulting from the proposal and request a contribution of £38,180 to mitigate the impacts of the proposal.

Saved policy COM6 and emerging Policy HP5 state that for residential development on a site of 1.5ha and above, where existing public open space facilities are inadequate, shall provide a financial contribution towards the provision of new or improved off-site facilities to meet the projected needs of the future occupiers of the development. There is a substantial local deficit in equipped play and a financial contribution is therefore required towards improvement of the existing play area at School Lane.

Policies within Chapter 6 of the adopted Local Plan and Policy PPL4 of the emerging local plan seek to ensure that where development is likely to harm nature conservation or geo-diversity interests, planning permission will only be granted in exceptional circumstances, where the benefits of the development shall outweigh the harm caused and where appropriate mitigation measures must be included in the development to the satisfaction of Natural England and other appropriate authorities.

A completed Section 106 obligation to secure the relevant contributions towards education, healthcare, RAMS, public open space and affordable housing has not been provided and is therefore contrary to the above policies.
