The Localism Act 20111 and the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF)2 place a duty on local planning authorities and prescribed bodies to cooperate with each other to address strategic issues relevant to their area during plan making. The duty requires continuous and active engagement during the preparation of the plan. 2. Local planning authorities should make every effort to secure the necessary cooperation on strategic cross boundary matters before submitting their Local Plans for examination. The Local Planning Authority must demonstrate how they have complied with the duty, if they cannot then the Local Plan will not be able to proceed further in the Examination. 3. Local authorities are asked to produce one or more Statements of Common Ground. These statements should set out the relevant strategic matters, priorities and cross boundary issues to be addressed and what potential impact the strategic matters may have. They should contain any resolution/mitigation and monitoring. The Statements also include signatories to the agreements including those which need to be progressed or are outstanding. 4. The Doncaster Local Plan: Statement of Common Ground3 is a separate document and has been submitted as part of the Doncaster Local Plan. It follows the Planning Advisory Service guidance4 and sets out: The duty to cooperate requirements; The parties involved in the Statement of Common Ground; The signatories who have signed up to the Statement of Common Ground; Doncaster's strategic geography; The relevant strategic matters; and The timetable for review and on-going cooperation. 5. The Doncaster Local Plan: Statement of Common Ground (SoCG) contains 19 Agreements which have been drawn up in conjunction with the relevant neighbouring authorities and prescribed bodies. These cover relevant strategic matters including: housing; gypsies, travellers and travelling show people; employment; transport infrastructure (road, rail and public transport); air quality and noise; retail and town centres; flood risk; green infrastructure; built and historic environment; waste management; community facilities; water quality; 1 Through the inclusion of Section 33A into the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 2 https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/national-planning-policy-framework--2 3 www.doncaster.gov.uk/localplan 4 https://www.local.gov.uk/pas/pas-topics/local-plans/statement-common-ground 2 minerals. 6. These Agreements are in the process of being signed up to by the relevant neighbouring authorities and prescribed bodies. 7. This purpose of this paper 'Statement of Compliance with the Duty to Cooperate' is to demonstrate how the Council has complied with the duty to cooperate. It sets out: A summary of strategic matters/issues included in the Doncaster Local Plan Statement of Common Ground; How those matters have been resolved/not resolved; Who we have worked with and on which strategic matters; The nature and timing of the engagement; The outcomes of the cooperation including how the Local Plan/Doncaster SoCG was influenced; and, The relationship with the Sheffield City Region Statement of Common Ground. 8. Appendix 1 lists Doncaster’s neighbouring authorities and prescribed bodies that are involved in the duty to cooperate. 9. It is important to note that the Council has written a Regulation 22 Statement of Consultation5 which sets out how the Council has consulted all relevant bodies and the local community during the preparation of the Local Plan (i.e. not just those included in the duty to cooperate). The Regulation 22 Statement of Consultation also sets out in detail the issues that have been raised and how they have been considered in the preparation of the Local Plan. 5 www.doncaster.gov.uk/localplan 3 2.0 Consultation on the Doncaster Local Plan and Doncaster Statement of Common Ground Doncaster Local Plan 10. As part of the Local Plan preparation process (including the evidence base), all relevant duty to cooperate parties have been consulted at each stage. This is in line with the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning (England) Regulations 2012. These stages are not discussed in detail in this Statement of Compliance or in the Doncaster Duty to Cooperate Statement; instead they are listed and discussed in the Regulation 22 Statement of Consultation6. However for information, the Local Plan stages were: Call for Sites - October - December 2014 Issues and Options - September 2015 Homes and Settlements Strategy - March 2016 Ongoing stakeholder engagement and consultation - Spring 2015 - Spring 2018 Consultation on Draft Policies and Proposed Sites - September - October 2018 Publication - August - September 2019 Submission - February 2020 Key consultation on the Doncaster Statement of Common Ground 11. Throughout the preparation of the Doncaster Statement of Common Ground, neighbouring authorities and prescribed bodies were consulted at key times in order to gain an understanding of the relevant strategic issues, and to ask for comments and amendments to a Draft and then a Revised Draft Statement of Common Ground. The key dates for the consultation on the Doncaster Statement of Common Ground were: 24 September 2018 – email to prescribed bodies asking for comments which could be taken into account and reflected in the Doncaster Statement of Common Ground; 27 September 2018 – a draft of the Strategic and Cross Boundary Matters Table (now Appendix 2 in the Doncaster Statement of Common Ground) was sent to neighbouring authorities for comments. They were also asked formally whether their authority would be in a position to allocate land for housing in their Local Plan that would contribute to meeting some of Doncaster’s housing needs; 6 June 2019 – Email to neighbouring authorities and prescribed bodies with a Draft Doncaster Statement of Common Ground for comments/amendments; 14 August 2019 – Email to neighbouring authorities and prescribed bodies with a Revised Draft Doncaster Statement of Common Ground for comments/amendments. 6 www.doncaster.gov.uk/localplan 4 25th February 2020 – Email to neighbouring authorities and prescribed bodies with final version of the Doncaster Statement of Common Ground for signing. 12. Reminder emails were sent out if no correspondence had been received. 13. A number of engagement methods were used through Local Plan and the Doncaster Statement of Common Ground preparation including email correspondence and meetings. Appendix 2 of this Statement of Compliance with the Duty to Cooperate sets out the collaborative working that has taken place with duty to cooperate bodies including how and when Doncaster Council has consulted or engaged. 5 3.0 Sheffield City Region Statement of Common Ground 14. In addition to the Doncaster Local Plan: Statement of Common Ground, Doncaster Council is also a signatory to the Sheffield City Region Statement of Common Ground (SCR SoCG). Paragraph 1.1 of the SCR SoCG states that the document “is a record of agreement on cross boundary, strategic matters between the nine local authorities and other key stakeholders in the Sheffield City Region. It has been produced by the signatory authorities to demonstrate how Local Plans are prepared on the basis of an agreed understanding of the issues facing the City Region.” 15. The local authorities engaged in the SCR Statement are: Bassetlaw DC Barnsley MBC Bolsover DC Chesterfield BC Derbyshire Dales DC Doncaster Council North East Derbyshire DC Rotherham MBC Sheffield City Council 16. The other key stakeholders and signatories to the SCR Statement are: SCR Mayoral Combined Authority Nottinghamshire County Council Derbyshire County Council Peak District National Park Authority 17. It was agreed that the SCR SoCG would focus primarily on four strategic matters: Housing; Employment; Transport; Digital connectivity. 18. In additional, current working arrangements on several other strategic matters have been summarised to illustrate the range of shared interests being progressed. These strategic matters are developing and will be reviewed in future updates of the SCR SoCG. These strategic matters are: Green Belt; Energy and climate change; Flood risk; Minerals planning; Waste planning; Natural environment; Peak District National Park; Health. 6 19. The Statement was endorsed, in July 2019 by the SCR Infrastructure Board and it is currently being signed by participating authorities – Doncaster Council signed it on 28th January 2020. It will be formally approved by the MCA later in 2020. Although the Council is fully involved in the preparation of the Statement, the delivery and timescales are out of the Council’s control. A copy of the SCR SoCG is included as Appendix 3. The relationship of the Doncaster SoCG and the SCR SoCG 20. Paragraph 1.6 of

  • Joint Position Statement Between the City of York and Selby District Council in Relation to the Housing Market Area, April 2020
    Joint Position Statement between the City of York and Selby District Council in relation to the Housing Market Area, April 2020 Introduction 1. This statement seeks to clarify the position agreed between the City of York Council and Selby District Council through the Duty to Co-operate in relation to the Housing Market Area. Specifically, the statement seeks to: provide further clarification that any links between York and Selby only extend to part of the Selby area and that this is considered to support the approach taken by the Councils through the Duty to Co-operate to meet their own objectively assessed housing needs within their own administrative areas; and to clarify that both Council’s continue to maintain the position reached through the Duty to Co-operate that through the preparation of the York Local Plan and its submission and more recently with the review of the Selby Local Plan that it is not practical to seek to align the preparation of the two Plans and to consider housing needs jointly across the HMA. Preparation of the Strategic Housing Market Assessment (SHMA) 2. The 2004 Act refers to a Local Planning Authority’s (LPA) ‘area’ and it is clear that the statutory duty for an LPA is and must be in relation to their area. Thus the primary duty of the LPA is to assess the needs of their local authority area. 3. Paragraph 47 of the NPPF (2012) requires Local Plans to meet the full objectively assessed need in the Housing Market Area (HMA). Paragraph 159 of the NPPF helps clarify this, in that it requires LPAs to have a clear understanding of housing needs ‘in their area’.

  • Housing Monitoring Report: Yorkshire
    Housing Monitoring Report: Yorkshire February 2021 Contents 2 Introduction The Northern Planning team constantly monitors the activities of local planning authorities to identify opportunities for clients. This monitoring report has been created to provide a snapshot of the current planning policy position for the local authorities in Yorkshire; alongside identifying local authorities where consultations on emerging planning policies are live or expected imminently. Based on the latest available documents we have also sought to identify the relevant five year housing supply position. The revised NPPF was updated in February 2019 and, alongside changes to the Planning Practice Guidance, reaffirms the Government’s intention to deliver 300,000 new homes per year by the mid-2020s. Local Plans are beginning to catch up with the Government’s objectives, but there is a long way to go. From 24 January 2019, local planning authorities who have not submitted their emerging strategic plans for examination will now have to address the housing delivery targets arising from the Government’s standard methodology. Equally, where strategic plans are more than five years old the standard methodology should be used for the purposes of calculating the five year supply of deliverable housing sites. The map below provides a summary of the current status of strategic plans across the region. The information included in this monitoring report is indicative and the best available at the time of publication. Due to the impact of COVID-19 the suggested timescales

    REPORT TO: COUNCIL DATE: 7 JULY 2016 REPORT OF THE: CHIEF EXECUTIVE JANET WAGGOTT TITLE OF REPORT: REQUEST FOR SUPPORT OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE TO SELBY DISTRICT COUNCIL WARDS AFFECTED: ALL EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.0 PURPOSE OF REPORT 1.1 To advise Members of the request from the Leader of Selby District Council for the Chief Executive of Ryedale to work as the interim Chief Executive of Selby District Council, on a part time basis, commencing on the 1 August 2016. 2.0 RECOMMENDATION 2.1 That Council is recommended to approve: (i) The request from the Leader of Selby District Council that the Chief Executive of Ryedale District Council works, on a part time basis, as the interim Chief Executive of Selby District Council from the 1 August 2016 until further notice. 3.0 REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION 3.1 It is recommended that the request from Selby is approved. There are a number of reasons to consider approving the recommendation. There is an opportunity for the Chief Executive to work more strategically across two Districts and for financial savings of the shared costs of the Chief Executive's salary. It offers Ryedale District Council the opportunity to be more closely involved in the collaboration between Selby District Council and North Yorkshire County Council whilst supporting Selby District Council for the interim period when Selby are without a Chief Executive. There is an opportunity for Officers to develop resilience across Districts Shared experiences and learning from other Authorities, Selby and NYCC Offers Ryedale the opportunity to explore in "real time" the possibility of this interim arrangement becoming a more formal shared management team arrangement in the future, providing there is agreement for this approach.

They should use the full range of planning tools available, including brownfield registers and permission in principle, and work proactively with applicants to secure developments that will improve the economic, social and environmental conditions of the area. Decision-makers at every level should seek to approve applications for sustainable development where possible.” 7.4 NPPF Paragraphs 124 – 132 focus on achieving well-designed spaces and seek to promote good design in the built environment.

It puts forward a strategic growth scenario for the town and will function as a background document to inform the preparation of Bassetlaw District Council’s Local Development Framework. Capacity of the Town to Accommodate Growth Harworth Bircotes has significant physical capacity to accommodate growth in the short, medium and long term. An analysis of the existing conditions and prospects indicates the follows: - i Geography & Connections – located in the administrative area of Bassetlaw in North Nottinghamshire, the town is historically associated with the coal mining industry and Harworth colliery dominates the south side of the settlement. Scrooby Road acts as a retail centre with the residential neighbourhoods to the north and the main employment areas beyond these or to the south of the colliery. The town has good road accessibility to the A1(M) and no railway station although an existing now disused rail spur exists which previously served the colliery.
