BRENTWOOD BOROUGH COUNCIL 1 INTRODUCTION Preparing the Plan 1. Brentwood Borough Council is preparing a new Local Plan, a key part of the Brentwood’s development plan. This Plan sets out a long term vision for how the Borough should develop over the next 15 years and the Council's strategy and policies for achieving that vision. The Plan proposes land allocations for development and planning policies to guide decisions on the location, scale and type of development and changes in the way land and buildings are used. 2. We would like your views on our proposed approach contained within this draft version of the Local Plan. The Draft Plan sets out proposed strategy, policies and land allocations to meet future needs. Following consultation we will consider all comments received and, depending on issues raised, may amend the Plan in light of these. There will then be a further opportunity to comment prior to the Council submitting the plan to the Secretary of State for examination by an independent inspector. 3. Once adopted, the Local Plan will be a statutory document and a material consideration in determining planning applications. 4. The Draft Plan has been drawn up following extensive consultation and is supported by evidence from a variety of sources. Some background to the document preparation is given in the paragraphs and chapters that follow. Previous Consultations 5. During November and December 2009, Brentwood Borough Council and Local Strategic Partnership consulted on issues and options facing the Borough up to 2031. The ‘Pathway to a Sustainable Brentwood’ document sought views on a vision, objectives, spatial options to guide future development in the Borough and broad themes, such as sustainable use of resources, environmental protection, and meeting people’s needs. 6. Between 2007 and 2010 there were separate consultations on a Gypsy and Traveller Development Plan Document. However, the document did not proceed to adoption. 7. Following consultation on issues and options in 2009, for pragmatic reasons and in light of changing national policy and legislation, the Council decided to bring the Core Strategy together with site allocations and development management policies to produce a single Local Plan rather than a suite of separate documents as part of a Local Development Framework. This seemed consistent with the new approach to planning that was emerging and is reflected in subsequent legislation and national policy guidance. 8. Reflecting a new emphasis on localism and to give local people an opportunity to participate in planning, in May and June 2011 the Council undertook a comprehensive neighbourhood consultation. The ‘Your Neighbourhood’ consultation sought views on priorities for the Local Plan, neighbourhoods, housing numbers and potential sites. 1 PROVISIONAL DRAFT LOCAL PLAN | BRENTWOOD BOROUGH COUNCIL 9. Following the abolition of the East of England Plan in early 2013, the Council published its preferred options document for consultation between July and October 2013. The ‘Local Plan 2015-2030: Preferred Options’ set out the long term vision for how the Council proposed the Borough should develop by 2030 and the draft strategy and policies for achieving that vision. 10. Following the conclusion of consultation in late 2013 it became apparent that several issues needed to be reconsidered in light of representations received and Planning Inspectorate decisions to other Local Plan examinations, specifically regarding meeting full objectively assessed development needs. Consequently the Council published its ‘Strategic Growth Options’ document for consultation in January 2015, which set out all sites suggested to the Council to meet local development needs and information on some key issues to consider as part of assessing sites, such as transport infrastructure, local services, and the environment. 11. The consultation process so far is depicted in Figure 1.1. All consultation documents and assessments of representations received are available to view on the Council’s website at www.brentwood.gov.uk/localplan.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 We would like to get your views on future development and planning of Thurrock to 2021. A new system of “Spatial Planning” has been introduced that goes beyond traditional land-use planning and seeks to integrate the various uses of land with the various activities that people use land for. The new spatial plans must involve wider community consultation and involvement and be based on principles of sustainable development. 1.2 The main over-arching document within the LDF portfolio is the Core Strategy. This sets out the vision, objectives and strategy for the development of the whole area of the borough. The Site Specific Allocations and Policies is very important as it underpins the delivery of the Core Strategy. It enables the public to be consulted on the various specific site proposals that will guide development in accordance with the Core Strategy. 1.3 Many policies in the plans will be implemented through the day-to-day control of development through consideration of planning applications. This document also looks at the range of such Development Control policies that might be needed.

W.C. 1862. PREFACE. TIIE Proprietors, in submitting to their Subscribers and the Public the present (being the Fifth) Edition of the Six HOME COUNTIES DIRECTORY, trust that it may • be found to be equal in accuracy to the previous Editions. Several additions have been made to the present volume : lists of Hundreds and Poor Law Unions have been included in the Topography of each County; it is stated under each Parish in what Hundred, Union and County Court District it is situate, as well as the Diocese, Archdeaconry and Rural Deanery; and the College and University of every Beneficed Clergyman have been given. The Post Office Savings Banks have been noticed; the names of the Parish Clerks are given under each Parish ; and lists of Farm Bailiffs of gentlemen farming their own land have been added. / The bulk of the Directory has again increased considerably: the Third Edition consisted of 1,420 pages; the Fourth had increased to 1,752 pages; and the present contains 1,986 pages. The value of the Directory, however, will depend principally on the fact that it has been most carefully corrected, every parish having been personally visited by the Agents during the last six months. The Proprietors have again to return their thanks to the Clergymen, Clerks of the Peace, Magistrates' Clerks, Registrars, and other Gentlemen who have assisted the Agents while collecting the information.
