420 FD/OB182/01 MCP Planning & 1.1P The plan misinterprets RPG13 by seeking to restrict development entirely in west Development for Wirral.

(North) Limited 641 FD/OB259/14 Broadway Malyan 1.1P the paragraph should be revised to allow sustainable forms of development in Planning for areas outside the NWMA Westbury Homes Holdings Limited 690 FD/OB265/01 MCP Planning & 1.1P Local needs will require land releases in west Wirral. The plan should be flexible Development for enough to allow other housing sites to come forward if needed at the end of the Taylor Woodrow plan period if commitments and conversions do not come forward Developments 640 FD/OB259/13 Broadway Malyan 1.24A the timetable should be amended to reflect the provision for plans to be saved for Planning for three years from the commencement of the Act, not three years from adoption as Westbury Homes stated Holdings Limited

SECTION 4. CORE STRATEGY AND URBAN REGENERATION

225 FD/OB149/04 Mr D Clamp URN1A Policy is too restrictive

370 FD/OB175/01 NJL Consulting for URN1A The policy should provide further emphasis on the location of development and Reddington the importance of promoting Birkenhead as the principle location for major Finance development and regeneration

714 FD/OB265/25 MCP Planning & URN1A this policy is inflexible and fails to make any provision for the potential for Development for increased development requirements arising from a future review of Regional Taylor Woodrow Planning Guidance for the North West13 or from the present supply of land Developments becoming exhausted 422 FD/OB182/03 MCP Planning & URN1A (I) should state “full and effective use is made of previously developed and other Development for land is urban areas” in line with national Planning Policy Guidance3 paragraph 30 Morris and Regional Planning Guidance for the North West13 Development (North) Limited 976 FD/OB332/05 MCP Planning & URN1A (I) The restrictions fail to reflect national Planning Policy Guidance3 and Regional Development for Planning Guidance for the North West13 on the reuse of previously developed Hylgar Properties land. Criterion (I) should say “full and effective use is made of previously developed and other land in urban areas” 226 FD/OB149/05 Mr D Clamp URN1A (iv) No The features listed under (iv) do not require protection under this policy and should be deleted

977 FD/OB332/06 MCP Planning & URN1A (iv) The policy fails to acknowledge previously developed land in the Green Belt on Development for major developed sites. Criterion (iv) should say “Sites in the approved Green Hylgar Properties Belt, excluding Major Developed Sites”

421 FD/OB182/02 MCP Planning & 4.1C The blanket restriction on development in west Wirral is an inflexible approach Development for that fails to meet housing needs contrary to the advice in RPG13 paragraph 3.18. Morris A future review of RPG could increase the housing requirement for Wirral and Development exhaust supply. (North) Limited 649 FD/OB259/22 Broadway Malyan 4.1C the spatial strategy outlined here is overly restrictive and should be more positive Planning for towards sustainable forms of development outside the NWMA Westbury Homes Holdings Limited 695 FD/OB265/06 MCP Planning & 4.1C a blanket restriction on development in west Wirral is inflexible, will fail to meet Development for local needs and is contrary to RPG13 Taylor Woodrow Developments 1202 FD/OB387/01 House Builders 4.1C There is no evidence that restrictions in more popular areas will result in Federation regeneration in areas of low demand. It will harm the economy. The RPG13 approach is flawed. Growth in Wirral above the RPG requirement should be welcomed. 648 FD/OB259/21 Broadway Malyan 4.1F the spatial strategy outlined here is overly restrictive and should be more positive Planning for towards sustainable forms of development outside the NWMA Westbury Homes Holdings Limited 647 FD/OB259/20 Broadway Malyan 4.1H the spatial strategy outlined here is overly restrictive and should be more positive Planning for towards sustainable forms of development outside the NWMA Westbury Homes Holdings Limited

Morris Development (North) Limited 646 FD/OB259/19 Broadway Malyan UR1A This policy goes beyond PPG3, which puts the onus on LPAs to follow a search Planning for sequence for housing allocations. It is not for housing applicants to show need or Westbury Homes that alternative sites are not available & there is no advice for applicants on how Holdings Limited to do this. 674 FD/OB260/08 Cheshire Office UR1A the whole of the Wirral International Business Park should be excluded from the Park Limited requirements of this policy to allow its completion

712 FD/OB265/23 MCP Planning & UR1A the policy goes further than national Planning Policy Guidance3, does not say Development for how an insufficiency of previously developed land will be demonstrated and Taylor Woodrow should consider the impact of constraints such as contamination, marketability Developments and ownership 645 FD/OB259/18 Broadway Malyan 4.2C The definition of previously developed land is incorrect. Land put to amenity use Planning for should not always be the lowest priority for development. This wording is too Westbury Homes restrictive and does not allow for the findings of the assessments required in Holdings Limited PPG17. 199 FD/OB143/14 Tetlow King UR2A Should be clarified to refer to the precise developments to which the Policy is Planning for intended to apply and to accord with national Planning Policy Guidance6 Larkflame Ltd and Magnet Ltd 282 FD/OB162/16 Henry Boot UR2A Should be clarified to refer to the precise developments to which the Policy is Development intended to apply and to accord with national Planning Policy Guidance6 Limited

376 FD/OB175/07 NJL Consulting for UR2A This policy does not allow sufficient flexibility in dealing with major regeneration Reddington sites and areas. The policy should allow for exceptions or identify specific mixed Finance use proposals in targeted locations to lead regeneration

426 FD/OB182/07 MCP Planning & UR2A the policy fails to set out the scale of development that will be subject to these Development for restrictions Morris Development (North) Limited 427 FD/OB182/08 MCP Planning & UR2A Policy UR2A fails to recognise that some forms of development cannot take place Development for in town centres and are required in close proximity to residential areas Morris (unspecified).

106 FD/OB075/02 Mr K Collins UR3A the Alteration would prevent plans for business expansion

428 FD/OB182/09 MCP Planning & UR3A The policy is overly restrictive and inflexibly focuses on the NWMA, failing to Development for recognise that there may be a need to release land later in the plan period in west Morris Wirral if supply becomes exhausted or if Regional Planning Guidance for the Development North West was reviewed during the plan period. (North) Limited 429 FD/OB182/10 MCP Planning & UR3A The policy fails to quantify the level of development required to meet the needs of Development for the current population and does not set out allocations or an allowance for Morris housing and employment uses in west Wirral. Development (North) Limited 644 FD/OB259/17 Broadway Malyan UR3A this policy should be more positive about sustainable forms of development Planning for outside the NWMA Westbury Homes Holdings Limited 711 FD/OB265/22 MCP Planning & UR3A The NWMA boundary should be refined/redefined.

The role of such sites in delivering renewal should be acknowledged in the text of site specific allocations 1036 FD/OB338/13 Councillor S UR4A Masterplans with contracts to preferred developers may fuel a greater pressure Holbrook for inappropriate development on inappropriate sites within the wider NWMA as these will be the only sites available to most of the remaining developers

296 FD/OB166/04 Government Office 4.5D This is a very large area & the management of proposals must be carefully for the North West considered. Masterplans must be owned by the LPA and taken through the P&CP Act procedures.

211 FD/OB146/05 Port Sunlight UR6A The policy in unduly onerous in that it applies to all types of development, not all Village Trust the criteria will always be relevant and a degree of realism and flexibility is needed. The words “where appropriate” should be added to the preamble.

287 FD/OB165/01 Jones Lang LaSalle UR6A The policy is contrary to national advice & may prevent high quality modern for Unilever UKCR design, requiring too much consistency with existing features. Amended wording Limited is suggested to maximise high density development in sustainable locations and for use of materials 746 FD/OB273/04 Merseytravel UR6A there should a clear reference to all housing designs to include measures to create safe, attractive, pedestrian links to public transport to minimise the distance between all properties and their primary public transport services

SECTION 5. ECONOMY AND EMPLOYMENT

297 FD/OB166/05 Government Office EMP1A The terminology should refer to Strategic Regional Sites. The reasoned for the North West justification should be amended accordingly

360 FD/OB172/08 RPS for British EMP1A the policy is not sufficiently comprehensive with regard to previously developed Telecommunication land and should refer to previously development land within settlement s Plc boundaries and not just within the NWMA

364 FD/OB174/01 CB Richard Ellis for EMP1A The policy is inflexible and inconsistent with Policy EM6A and should be reworded Manor Bakeries to include "or where the development comprises as expansion or development of an existing employment use or facility"

371 FD/OB175/02 NJL Consulting for EMP1A The need for alternative uses on employment sites must be recognised to allow Reddington for appropriate mixed-use developments. The balance of take up, (over)supply Finance and demand indicate that older industrial sites are less attractive for B1, B2 or B8 developments 652 FD/OB259/25 Broadway Malyan EMP1A The last paragraph is overly restrictive as paragraph 42 of PPG3 requires LPAs to Planning for review all non-housing allocations to consider whether some may be better used Westbury Homes for housing or mixed use development. It is unclear that such a review has been Holdings Limited undertaken 667 FD/OB260/01 Cheshire Office EMP1A the policy should allow for leisure, retail and other uses inside the Wirral Park Limited International Business Park

735 FD/OB272/03 Cheshire County EMP1A the use of the term minimum is questionable and it is unclear whether there will Council be no limit on the provision of employment land

828 FD/OB285/01 How Planning for EMP1A the absolute prohibition of alternative uses on land allocated for employment Taylor Woodrow provides insufficient flexibility where the land is no longer needed for its allocated Developments purpose in terms of the supply and quality of alternative sites Limited 572 FD/OB248/02 North West 5.2A the terminology should refer to "strategic regional sites" designated by the NWDA Development Agency

573 FD/OB248/03 North West 5.4A the terminology should refer to "strategic regional sites" designated by the NWDA Development Agency

379 FD/OB175/10 NJL Consulting for 5.9A Take up has slowed since 2001 and will have implications for the need to protect Reddington larger existing industrial areas from alternative uses. The continued allocation of Finance such sites should be reconsidered

259 FD/OB158/20 Wirral Wildlife 5.10A The text should make clear that renewals of planning permission will be made subject to the new policies for offices and greenfield sites.

33 FD/OB025 RMS Windsor EM1A Leisure uses should not be omitted. The policy should allow a historic ocean liner Castle Trust or ship to be permanently berthed at the shipyard with visitor centre and car park.

390 FD/OB175/21 NJL Consulting for EM1A The uses listed are too narrow and are not the most appropriate for the site. B1 Reddington offices already exist. A comprehensive mixed-use strategy led by a master plan Finance would lead to a greater regenerative impact & better meet the Council's employment aspirations. 568 FD/OB247/20 Drivers Jonas for EM1A the second paragraph should be clarified to ensure that "compatible uses" will be Universities subject to national advice and other plan policies Superannuation Scheme Limited

393 FD/OB175/24 NJL Consulting for 5.13A The reuse of the northern yard was not due to mothballing but due to the Reddington determination of a specialist sector to reuse it Finance

391 FD/OB175/22 NJL Consulting for 5.13C The text should reflect that the policy wording does not restrict the use of the site Reddington to ship related uses only. The infrastructure for such uses is obsolete and the site Finance cannot fulfil its previous role

300 FD/OB166/08 Government Office 5.13D The reference to "other compatible uses" should be clarified in the reasoned for the North West justification

392 FD/OB175/23 NJL Consulting for 5.13D The demolition of the cranes was based on their long term disuse and on health Reddington and safety ground and not on the new owners aspirations for the alternative uses Finance

298 FD/OB166/06 Government Office EM1B The terminology should refer to Strategic Regional Sites. The reasoned for the North West justification should state how the site accords with RPG Policy EC5

240 FD/OB158/01 Wirral Wildlife EM1B/11A Sensitive development is needed to protect adjacent wildlife. Substantial buffer zones & management provision is needed. Planning permission should not be automatically renewed but tested against new policies for greenfields & offices

668 FD/OB260/02 Cheshire Office EM1B/11A the policy for this site should allow flexibility for other uses such as retail, housing Park Limited or leisure in the event that office uses are proved unviable once phase one of the proposed office park is completed

1189 FD/OB385/02 Bromborough EM1B/11A The land should be added to Eastham Country Park, which is well used and could Society do with this extra area kept as open grassland. It is a feeding ground for bats and is bisected by an ancient and registered footpath. This route should not be diverted. 1190 FD/OB385/03 Bromborough EM1B/12A The land should be retained open. It provides a feeding ground for bats. There is Society at least one bat roost on this land.

299 FD/OB166/07 Government Office EM1C The terminology should refer to Strategic Regional Sites. The reasoned for the North West justification should state how the site accords with RPG Policy EC5

The proposal should be deleted if this cannot be shown

395 FD/OB177/01 Peel Holdings EM3/7 The Alteration to the Proposals Map does not explicitly show re-designation as Limited Dock Estate under Policy EM10A. The land should be allocated under EM3A or EM10A.

397 FD/OB177/03 Peel Holdings EM3/11 The Alteration to the Proposals Map does not explicitly show re-designation as Limited Dock Estate under Policy EM10A. The land should be allocated under EM3A or EM10A.

678 FD/OB262/01 Drivers Jonas for EM3A/1A the policy for this site should reflect to the severe physical constraints on this site Unilever Plc and the need to incorporate some higher value uses to enable reclamation and redevelopment to go ahead

242 FD/OB158/03 Wirral Wildlife EM3A/5A Reference should be made that flood plain policies will apply to development on this land. Important wildlife sites lie up and downstream within the floodplain to the Birkett.

367 FD/OB174/04 CB Richard Ellis for EM3A/5A Site EM3A/5A should be shown as part of the Primarily Industrial Area. The Manor Bakeries primary access to the adjacent industrial area from Reeds Lane passes through this site and is integral to the adjacent PIA

748 FD/OB273/06 Merseytravel EM3A/5A there should be a reference to protecting land at this site to provide extended park and ride facilities

829 FD/OB285/02 How Planning for EM3A/5A The site is better suited to residential development or a mixed-use scheme. The Taylor Woodrow site is within the factory curtilage, incorrectly classified as greenfield. There is no Developments evidence that the adjacent uses would make housing unsuitable Limited 243 FD/OB158/04 Wirral Wildlife EM3A/6A Reference should be made that flood plain policies will apply to development on this land.

365 FD/OB174/02 CB Richard Ellis for EM3B The policy conflicts with Policy EM6A & would prevent companies from expanding Manor Bakeries onto adjacent greenfield land identified in the plan as suitable for employment development. There is no consideration of local needs or the need for in-situ expansions 303 FD/OB166/11 Government Office 5.19B The reasoned justification should clarify that references to the NWMA refer only to for the North West land within the Borough.

288 FD/OB165/02 Jones Lang LaSalle EM3C The practical implications are too onerous and do not recognise that some offices for Unilever UKCR need to be located next to a specialist operation. An exception clause should be Limited written in.

380 FD/OB175/11 NJL Consulting for EM3C Major regeneration sites should be allowed to contain B1 development in order to Reddington create a sustainable mix of appropriate uses. The policy should be amended to Finance reflect this.

569 FD/OB247/21 Drivers Jonas for EM3C The policy should be amended to provide a transparent process for negotiating Universities transport improvements.
