Harrodian School Table 1: All respondents to the consultation All responses received on the Local Plan Review scoping consultation 2 Detailed comments as received: Ref. no. Name / Organisation Detailed comment 1. Caroline Britton I have looked at the consultation document which I received by email today and am very concerned that the St Michael's Convent site has been listed as an area for development - specifically including affordable housing. Given the price of land near Ham Common, it seems that the only way the site could provide an opportunity for affordable housing is if it were high density. This would be completely at odds with the character of the area, which is a precious oasis of green, quiet and tranquillity. The implications for traffic are also serious. I live in Martingales Close which is a cul de sac, bounded down the whole of one side by the brick Convent wall. The Close is a narrow and twisting road, accommodating 27 family houses. The fact that there is no access into the Close from the Convent site keeps traffic to a manageable level and means it is a relatively safe place for children to play. If that were to change, it would drastically alter the environment for all the local residents. I understand the pressures on the Council and accept there has to be some change, but would urge that this has to be in keeping with the nature of the existing area. 2. S.J Green Under the Green Belt Statement that appears in Appendix 1 it should be made clear that, as stipulated by the Examiner and later set out in the Development, Management Plan, the land at Fulwell Golf Club, Twickenham Golf Club, Squires Garden Centre, the allotments at Sixth Cross Road and Natalie Mews is held under the Green Belt (London and Home Counties Act) and, as such requires Ministerial Consent, which is separate from planning permission for all development on that land. Green Belt Statement Statement to say that the Council relies on CP10, London Plan and national policy guidance with regard to Green Belt 3. Raakhee Patel Thank you for consulting Sport England on the above document. Sport England is the Government agency responsible for Sport England delivering the Government’s sporting objectives. Maximising the investment into sport and recreation through the land use planning system is one of our national and regional priorities. You will also be aware that Sport England is a statutory consultee on planning applications affecting playing fields and a non statutory consultee on planning applications proposing major housing development. Sport England would wish to make the following comments on the above consultation document: Section 4.3: Design and Character Support (with amendments) Sport England recommends that Sport England’s Active Design Guidance http://www.sportengland.org/facilities-planning/planning- for-sport/planning-tools-and-guidance/active-design/ is referenced within this section. Sport England believes that being active should be an intrinsic part of everyone’s life pattern. The master planning of major new housing and mixed use development schemes has a vital role in providing easy access to a choice of opportunities for sport and physical activity, making new communities more active and healthy. Active Design is aimed at urban designers, master planners and the architects of our new communities. Active Design is an innovative set of design guidelines to promote opportunities for sport and physical activity in the design and layout of development. The guidance promotes sport and activity through three key Active Design principles of – improving accessibility, enhancing amenity and increasing awareness. The criteria set out within the Active Design Guidance can be used both as a guide during the planning process, or as a critic for developments that have already been designed. 4.5: Natural Environments, Parks, Open Spaces, Rivers and Sport & Recreation Support (with amendments) Sport England would recommend that this policy is revised in line with the below policy objective (related policy approaches can be found at the following link: http://www.sportengland.org/media/121906/document-7-spatial-planning-for-sport-development-control- All responses received on the Local Plan Review scoping consultation 3 Ref. no. Name / Organisation Detailed comment guidance-note-.pdf) Planning Policy Objective 13 aims to support and promote the use of natural resources for sport in a way which meets sustainable development objectives. Sport England considers that development proposals for sport should be based on the ‘Best Available Place’ principle. This involves a planned approach to the provision and protection of sites and facilities, including the assessment of the impact of any sports use and a commitment to appropriate management measures. Local Plan Evidence Base The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) requires each local planning authority to produce a Local Plan for its area. Local Plans should address the spatial implications of economic, social and environmental change. Local Plans should be based on an adequate, up-to-date and relevant evidence base. In addition, paragraph 73 of the NPPF requires that: “Planning policies should be based on robust and up-to-date assessments of the needs for open space, sports and recreation facilities and opportunities for new provision. The assessment should identify specific needs and quantitative deficits or surpluses of open space, sports and recreational facilities in the local area.” Although it is acknowledged that the Council completed a borough-wide Open Space,

  • Submission on the Need for a Secondary School
    Further Comments on the Stag Brewery Planning Applications Application covered by these comments: Application B – Ref. 18/0548 The erection of a three storey building to provide a new secondary school with sixth form; sports pitch with floodlighting, external multi- use games area and play space; and associated external works including landscaping, car and cycle parking, and new access routes. Prepared by Mortlake Brewery Community Group and Academy Advisory 8 June 2018 Note: Since submission to the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames Council on the above date this report has undergone a few very minor corrections of a mostly grammatical nature, a list of which can be supplied if required. Executive Summary 1. Including a large secondary school on the Stag Brewery site produces fundamental difficulties for the planning of the whole site, and generates unresolved (and insurmountable?) transport problems. 2. However, and remarkably, the case for such a school has not been made, and our analysis indicates that it cannot be made. 3. The argument for the secondary school was based on incorrect figures of likely demand within this part of Richmond, and omits many other relevant factors such as the position in neighbouring boroughs and the role of local and prestigious independent schools. 4. We estimate the unmet demand in the medium term to be about 90 places. This can be met by expansion of the two existing secondary schools in this part of the borough, which are on less confined sites and are likely to welcome such expansion since it would make their sixth forms more viable.
