Following further consideration with a number of stakeholders the following vision setting out the aspiration for the area was derived A well-integrated and mixed community across all neighbourhoods, where everyone’s needs are understood and catered for. A quality living environment for the 21st Century and beyond with a wide mix of adaptable quality housing, recreational, social and religious facilities, where the 19th century industrial heritage of the area and its buildings are valued and respected. Where educational, training and employment opportunities are maximised, taking advantage of the new educational facilities within and adjacent to the area. Where existing local businesses can develop and thrive; where entrepreneurs are encouraged and supported; and new businesses want to locate. Where the local and district shopping centres are well defined and provide desirable, accessible and serviced accommodation and the specialist Asian culture retail is developed and promoted to attract shoppers and visitors. The area takes advantage of its unique attributes – the countryside and parks which surround it; the waterside setting of the canal; its closeness to the Town Centre and other centres of employment – with excellent transport links within and outside the area and where walking, cycling and public transport are promoted encouraged and supported. 1.2 The sites sit within the wider context of the Daneshouse, Duke Bar and Stoneyholme Area Action Plan. Site A includes a main road frontage to Colne Road. This part of the area is considered a key gateway site which will lead to the regeneration of north Daneshouse and the wider area. The Council’s aims in producing a development brief for this site are to: Set out in detail the characteristics of the site Guide development to ensure that it meets the policy requirements of the local plan and the aspirations of the Council. Ensure housing development is provided to meet the needs of existing and new residents Assist the planning application and development process Provide a co-ordinated framework for the delivery of good quality housing choice, urban design, and open space in the area. 1.3 The objectives for the development brief can be summarised as producing a development that: Uses community participation in the planning process Increases the number and the variety of homes available in the area 4 Burnley Borough Council Draft Daneshouse Duke Bar & Stoneyholme Development Brief Integrates local distinctiveness, character and heritage in the development (including the use of suitable materials and colours) Promotes accessible and usable outdoor spaces that integrate functions of green infrastructure Creates a safe, secure, welcoming and healthy local environment for all Embraces designing out crime principles including natural surveillance, visibility, lighting, defensible space and other security measures Complements regeneration activity in the wider area Revitalises the housing market Develops sustainable neighbourhoods that support vital amenities and services Question 1 Do you agree with the aims and the objectives for the development brief? Burnley Borough Council 5 Draft Daneshouse Duke Bar & Stoneyholme Development Brief 6 Burnley Borough Council Draft Daneshouse Duke Bar & Stoneyholme Development Brief Policy Context Burnley Borough Council 7 Draft Daneshouse Duke Bar & Stoneyholme Development Brief 2 Policy Context 2.1 The development Brief follows government advice and supports strategic and local policies that seek to encourage to regenerate and enhance the character of the locality and which provides a good quality environment for those who visit live and work in the area. 2.2 The planning policy framework is guided at national level through the publication of Planning Policy Guidance Notes (PPG's) and their successors Planning Policy Statements (PPS's). This advice filters through the regional planning documents (Regional Spatial Strategy) into the preparation of the Local Development Framework, currently provided by the Burnley Local Plan. National Policy. 2.3 Government Policy promotes sustainable development and good design and this is set out in a number of planning policy guidance notes and more recently planning policy statements. The issue of sustainable development and design is covered primarily in Planning Policy Statement 1: Delivering sustainable development, though most planning policy statements and guidance notes provide some guidance on design. This guidance has particular regard to the government’s policies and principles set out in PPS1 Delivering Sustainable Development (2005) 2.4 PPS1 strives to facilitate and promote sustainable and inclusive development by encouraging the re-use of vacant and previously developed land and by creating well designed, safe and livable communities that have good access to jobs and key services. 2.5 In 2007 a supplement to PPS1: Planning & Climate Change was introduced. This document sets out how planning should contribute to reducing emissions and stabilising climate change and take into account the unavoidable consequences. PPS3 Housing (2006) 2.6 PPS3 sets out the Government’s objectives in relation to housing. It places emphasis on the efficient and effective reuse of previously developed land, promotes, high quality design and aims to deliver a mix of housing tenures within sustainable locations. 2.7 In 2006 the Government published ‘Delivering Affordable Housing’ to supplement the objectives of PPS3. This guidance document aims to widen the opportunities for home ownership and supports the delivery of more high quality affordable homes within mixed sustainable communities. 8 Burnley Borough Council Draft Daneshouse Duke Bar & Stoneyholme Development Brief PPG13 Transport (2001) 2.8 PPG13 strives to locate development in sustainable locations, reduce private car dependence and encourage alternative, more sustainable forms of travel such as public transport, walking and cycling. 2.9 For too long the focus has been on the movement function of residential streets, the result of this being places that are dominated by motor vehicles. Manual for Streets has been produced by the Department for Transport, to replace Design Bulletin 32, and aims to assist in the creation of high quality residential streets that Balance the needs of all users Build and strengthen communities Form part of a well-connected network Create safe and attractive communities Are cost-effective. 2.10 Manual for Streets demonstrates the benefits that flow from good design and assigns a higher priority to pedestrians and cyclists, and refocuses on the place function of residential streets. PPG15 Planning & The Historic Environment (1994) 2.11 PPG15 provides a full statement of Government Policies for the identification and protection of historic buildings, conservation areas and other elements of the historic environment. The guidance states that planning has a role to play in preserving and enhancing the built and natural heritage Draft Planning Policy Statement 15 Planning for the Historic Environment (2009) 2.12 The draft PPS 15 updates the guidance within PPG15. This states that the historic environment is central to our cultural heritage. It contributes to our sense of national, local and community identity, through the memories of events and phases in our history that it holds. It has aesthetic value and provides local distinctiveness that is so important to a sense of place. 2.13 Planning has a central role to play in conserving and enhancing the historic environment through policy and plan-making at national, regional and local level. Through the planning process we can identify and define the interest and character that the historic environment brings to an area and conserve that value. An area’s heritage can also provide a reference point for the design of new development. 2.14 'The Communities Plan: Sustainable Communities: Building for the Future' was produced by the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister in 2003. It is a national, long-term programme of action to deliver sustainable communities by, for example tackling issues of low housing demand and improving the quality of public spaces. It aims to focus the activities of all levels of Government and other key stakeholders to bring about development that meets economic, social and environmental needs, now and in the future. Burnley Borough Council 9 Draft Daneshouse Duke Bar & Stoneyholme Development Brief 2.15 In the North West, the Plan highlights the mismatch between housing supply and housing demand as one of the key issues with some areas suffering from housing in poor condition, low demand and housing market failure. It identifies nine Housing Market Renewal Pathfinder areas where resources are to be focused on restructuring the urban fabric and creating sustainable living and working environments. Burnley is one

  • Lancashire Behaviour Support Tool
    Lancashire Behaviour Support Tool Introduction Lancashire is committed to achieving excellent outcomes for its children and young people. Our aim for all our young people is for them to have the best possible start in life so that all have the opportunity to fulfill their learning potential. Schools and other settings should be safe and orderly places where all children and young people can learn and develop. The consequences of behaviour which challenges others can, if not addressed effectively, impact negatively on individual pupils and groups of pupils. The need for the Local Authority, schools and other partners to work together to address behavioural issues is essential if we are to promote high standards of achievement and attainment for all. The purpose of the Behaviour Support tool is to produce accessible, and accurate information for schools and settings in one place, on sources of training, support and advice led by Lancashire services and clear pathways in relation to meeting pupil's social, emotional and behavioural needs. Aims 1. To develop safe, calm and ordered school environments within which pupils are able to learn and develop and thrive. 2. To develop skills for emotional literacy, positive social relationships and emotional health and well-being among pupils to take into their adult lives beyond school. 3. To Improve capacity within our schools and other settings to include all our pupils including those children and young people who, at times, may present very challenging behaviour, as a result of a variety of factors originating both within the child or young person or resulting from their social environment.
