Stratford-on-Avon District Council has specifically requested me to recommend any modifications necessary to enable the Plan to be adopted. Almost all of the recommended changes have been put forward by the Council in response to matters discussed during the examination. However, where necessary, I have amended detailed wording to reflect the representations made by participants and/or added consequential modifications. I recommend their inclusion after considering the representations from other parties on these issues, including those made in response to the consultation in the Spring of 2016. The MMs can be summarised as follows: To increase the Plan’s housing requirement to reflect the further work that has been done since the original Hearings and my interim conclusions; To make additional site allocations, including a new settlement at Long Marston Airfield [LMA] associated with a new bypass for Stratford-upon- Avon, and significant additional allocations at Stratford-upon-Avon and Southam, in order to help to meet the increased housing requirement; To update other site allocations, including a new settlement at Gaydon Lighthorne Heath [GLH], in the light of changed circumstances, including an additional employment allocation to meet the needs of Aston Martin Lagonda [AML]; To delete one site allocation for employment land [SUA.3, East of Birmingham Road] in respect of which exceptional circumstances have not been shown in order to justify its release from the Green Belt; To introduce one site allocation for employment land [SUA.5, Atherstone Airfield] which is considered to be necessary to provide for the Council’s ambition to redevelop the Canal Quarter; To provide effective mechanisms to address any failure in the delivery of the development sought by the Plan and to meet other housing needs as they are identified, including a new policy for a Plan review and more detail on the approach to the release of reserve sites; and, A number of changes to a range of policies in order to ensure that they are positively prepared, justified, effective and consistent with national policy. - 4 - Stratford-on-Avon Core Strategy, Inspector’s Report June 2016 Introduction and background 1. This report contains my assessment of the Stratford-on-Avon Core Strategy [CS] in terms of Section 20(5) of the Planning & Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 (as amended) [the 2004 Act]. It briefly comments on the Duty to Co-operate [DtC], but focusses on whether the Plan is sound and compliant with the legal requirements. Paragraph 182 of the National Planning Policy Framework [the Framework] makes clear that to be sound, a Local Plan should be positively prepared, justified, effective and consistent with national policy. 2. The starting point for the examination is the assumption the Local Planning Authority [LPA] has submitted what it considers to be a sound plan. The basis for the examination is the submitted draft plan, i.e. the Stratford-on-Avon Core Strategy Proposed Submission Version1. This was the subject of consultation in July 2014, as a result of which a number of modifications were proposed that form part of the main modifications [MMs]. I have had regard to the Proposed modifications in response to the Inspector’s Interim Conclusions2 insofar as it seeks to substantially revise three key policies in the Plan, allied to which a number of additional housing allocations have been identified. 3. Hearings were originally held in January 2015 but, after the issue of Interim Conclusions [IC] in March 2015, the examination was suspended. The IC gave reasons why the legal duty to co-operate in the preparation of the Plan had been met and found that the employment land requirement figure set out in submitted Policy CS.21 was soundly based. However it found shortcomings in the approach taken to the assessment of the housing requirement and problems with the Sustainability Appraisal [SA]. The suspension allowed the Council to produce further evidence in relation to housing and to revisit the SA. This evidence was produced during 2015. The new evidence along with the Council’s proposed changes to relevant parts of the Plan was the subject of further consultation for six weeks between 13 August to 25 September 2015. Hearings were re-convened in January 2016 during which the need for further MMs was identified. Comments were invited from participants on selected documents that were submitted during and immediately after the resumed Hearings and these have been taken into account. 4. My report deals with the MMs that are needed to make the Plan sound and legally compliant and these are identified in bold as [MM]. In accordance with section 20(7C) of the Act, Stratford-on-Avon District Council [the Council] requested that I should make any modifications needed to rectify matters that make the Plan unsound/not legally compliant and thus incapable of being adopted. The MMs relate to the policies and the principal changes to the reasoned justification. This report needs to be read in conjunction with the IC, which is at Appendix 1, which covers some points in detail that are not repeated. The updated Schedule of MMs is set out in Appendix 2. The updated Infrastructure Delivery Plan [IDP] is set out in Appendix 3. The updated Schedule of Infrastructure Projects is set out in Appendix 4. 5. The MMs that are necessary for soundness all relate to matters that were discussed at the examination Hearings. Following these discussions, the 1 Document Ref. ED.1.1. 2 Document Ref. ED.11.1. - 5 - Stratford-on-Avon Core Strategy, Inspector’s Report June 2016 Council prepared a schedule of proposed MMs and this schedule has been subject to public consultation for six weeks from 31 March to 12 May 2016. I have taken account of the consultation responses in coming to my conclusions in this report and in this light some amendments to the detailed wording of the MMs have been made and consequential modifications have been added where these are necessary for consistency or clarity. None of these amendments significantly alters the content of the modifications published for consultation or undermines the participatory processes and SA that has been undertaken.

Uncertain Uncertain or Unknown Effects - Minor Negative Potential sustainability issues: mitigation and/or negotiation possible -- Major Negative Problematical and improbable because of known sustainability issues; mitigation likely to be difficult and/or expensive Alcester Settlement Baseline Overview relevant to SA objectives: SA Objective Settlement Assessment Heritage The historic market town of Alcester overlies the site of a significant Roman settlement on Icknield Street. The town was granted a Royal Charter to hold a weekly market in 1274 and prospered throughout the next centuries. In the 17th Century it became a centre of the needle industry. With its long narrow Burbage plots and tueries (interlinking passageways), the town centre street pattern of today and many of its buildings are medieval. There are a number of heritage assets which includes Scheduled Monuments, Listed Buildings, a Conservation Area and archaeological features within and adjacent to the urban area. The Conservation area’s character is defined by the medieval street pattern, the presence of a wide diversity of buildings with a range of distinguishing features, and the gaps between the buildings which create an intriguing spatial element. The majority of Alcester’s Listed Buildings are located within the Conservation Area, as are parts of the Alcester Roman Town Scheduled Monument.1 Landscape The Landscape Sensitivity Study identifies extensive areas of land adjacent to the town as being of high sensitivity to development.

  • GLH Aspect of the Core Strategy, However, Scant Regard Has Be Paid to Either Legal Requirements Or Moral Strictures
    Land at Gaydon/Lighthorne Heath Supplementary Planning Document Informal consultation on initial draft document February/March 2015 Page 1 Consultation Statement Council response to comments received Item 5 Stratford-on-Avon District Council Appendix 2 August 2015 1.0 - Introduction Consultee Comments Response Timothy Bull - Gaydon Even before I start to read SDC's "new" Core Strategy Comments noted. The SPD cannot be adopted Resident document I feel I must have recorded the fact that I am of ahead of the adoption of the Core Strategy, but given the opinion that both SDC and Bird group, with their separate the Council’s decisions on this matter it is considered (and now differing) proposals, are jumping the gun in inviting reasonable to prepare the document in parallel with residents to view their proposals informally. Surely in the the remaining stages of the Core Strategy process. spirit of the outlines set out by the inspector neither of the two proposals should have been published before his report is issued; throughout the entire process of the generation of the GLH aspect of the Core Strategy, however, scant regard has be paid to either legal requirements or moral strictures. It is also interesting to note that the two proposals have reduced the numbers of houses to be built from the initial 4,800 to 2,000, with an option for more, in Bird's case and 3,000 in SDC's. I can only assume that the rapidity of the appearance of both schemes is an attempt to circumvent any negativity in the Core Strategy, by the inference of an "all or nothing" Page 2 comment in the last paragraph of the email I received from David Nash.
