It is a ‘living’ document and builds upon and updates the Core Strategy Infrastructure Delivery Plan (CS IDP) dated February 2011 and proposed changes version dated August 2011. The CSIDP was prepared to support the Wealden District (Incorporating Part of the South Downs National Park) Core Strategy Local Plan, adopted in February 2013, referred to as the Wealden District Core Strategy Introduction Local Plan (CSLP) throughout this IDP. 1 1.2 The Infrastructure Delivery Plan plays an important part in demonstrating that the Local Plan can be delivered and in supporting sustainable communities through the implementation and monitoring of social, community, environmental and green infrastructure. 1.3 This IDP focuses on the Strategic and critical infrastructure required to support the Wealden District Core Strategy Local Plan, including the strategic sites, identified in the IDP of 2011, and the specific infrastructure that is required to support the Strategic Sites Local Plan. The IDP also supports evidence of the infrastructure funding gap which is required to demonstrate the need for the charges applied in the Draft Community Infrastructure Levy Charging Schedule (DCIL). 1.4 This IDP comprises four main parts, Part One relates to the infrastructure required to support growth up until 2027 in accordance with the Wealden District Core Strategy Local Plan, where CIL receipts may be used in combination with other funding sources, towards the provision of infrastructure. Part Two relates to infrastructure required to support the Strategic Sites, where funding towards infrastructure will be sought through Section 106/278 Development Obligations and other sources where applicable. Part Three outlines the infrastructure provided through various service providers which is critical to growth and sustainable communities but which is or will be provided or funded through sources (mainly other Government funding) other than CIL or Section 106/278 Development Obligations. Part Four, relates to the Implementation, monitoring and funding of infrastructure. The IDP is supported by Appendices A – C. Appendix A contains the Infrastructure Delivery Plan Schedules with more detailed information to support Part One in Schedule A, Part Two in Schedule B, and Part Three in Schedule C. Background 1.5 The Wealden District Core Strategy Local Plan was submitted to the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government in August 2011 for his examination, together with a raft of supporting documentation, including the Core Strategy Infrastructure Delivery Plan (CSIDP), to demonstrate aspects relating to the deliverability and sustainability of the plan. 1.6 The Wealden District Core Strategy Local Plan identifies in Policy WCS4, the 11 Strategic Development areas and allocations for the majority of planned growth in Wealden District from 2006 to 2027. Strategic growth in the District is focussed on three sustainable 3 Wealden District Local Plan Proposed Submission Strategic Sites Infrastructure Delivery Plan 1 mixed use ‘urban extensions’ where housing, employment, education and community Introduction uses will be provided.These area at Land to the west of Uckfield; Land at North Hailsham and Land South of Polegate and East of Willingdon. Additional housing development, with more limited additional facilities, is allocated on Land at Hailsham East; Land adjacent to Tunbridge Wells in the Parish of Frant and various sites within Crowborough and Stone Cross. An employment only allocation at a site in Dittons Road Polegate, is also identified within the Wealden District Core Strategy Local Plan (CSLP). The Proposed Submission Strategic Sites Local Plan (SSLP) focuses upon these 11 Strategic Sites of the CSLP in more detail, and provides the policy requirements relating to the delivery of the Strategic Sites and associated off site and on site infrastructure, which form the basis of this IDP. 1.7 The requirement for small scale housing allocations in a number of villages within the District and retail allocations in Uckfield and Hailsham town centres, are identified in the Wealden District Core Strategy Local Plan in Policies WCS 6 and WCS 3 respectively. These allocations will be the focus of the next Local Plan Document - The Delivery and Site Allocations Local Plan.(1) Infrastructure Policies - the National Planning Policy Framework, the Wealden District Core Strategy Local Plan and the proposed submission Strategic Sites Local Plan 1.8 The Government introduced the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) in March 2012(2). The NPPF has a focus on the delivery of infrastructure to support growth and sets out the key principles in relation to the creation of sustainable communities and the delivery of infrastructure. Paragraph 162 of the NPPF states:- ‘Local planning authorities should work with other authorities and providers to: Assess the quality and capacity of infrastructure for transport, water supply, wastewater and its treatment, energy (including heat), telecommunications, utilities, waste, health, social care, education, flood risk and coastal change management, and its ability to meet forecast demands; and Take account of the need for strategic infrastructure including nationally significant infrastructure within their areas’ 1.9 The delivery of infrastructure therefore, plays an important part in the delivery of the three dimensions of sustainable development - economic, social and environmental, and features throughout the NPPF in assisting the delivery of many of the NPPF policies and objectives. 1.10 This policy focus on infrastructure is also clear in the Wealden District Core Strategy Local Plan in Policy WCS 7 - Effective Provision of Infrastructure, which states:- ‘The release of land for development will be conditional upon there being sufficient capacity in the existing local infrastructure to meet the requirements generated by the proposed development. Where development would create the need to provide 1 Small scale allocations may also be contained within Neighbourhood Plans, which complement the Local Plan process. 4 2 National Planning Policy Framework – Department for Communities and Local Government – March 2012 Wealden District Local Plan Proposed Submission Strategic Sites Infrastructure Delivery Plan additional or improved community facilities, services and infrastructure to mitigate its impact, a programme of delivery must be agreed with the relevant infrastructure providers

  • Bees and Wasps of the East Sussex South Downs
    A SURVEY OF THE BEES AND WASPS OF FIFTEEN CHALK GRASSLAND AND CHALK HEATH SITES WITHIN THE EAST SUSSEX SOUTH DOWNS Steven Falk, 2011 A SURVEY OF THE BEES AND WASPS OF FIFTEEN CHALK GRASSLAND AND CHALK HEATH SITES WITHIN THE EAST SUSSEX SOUTH DOWNS Steven Falk, 2011 Abstract For six years between 2003 and 2008, over 100 site visits were made to fifteen chalk grassland and chalk heath sites within the South Downs of Vice-county 14 (East Sussex). This produced a list of 227 bee and wasp species and revealed the comparative frequency of different species, the comparative richness of different sites and provided a basic insight into how many of the species interact with the South Downs at a site and landscape level. The study revealed that, in addition to the character of the semi-natural grasslands present, the bee and wasp fauna is also influenced by the more intensively-managed agricultural landscapes of the Downs, with many species taking advantage of blossoming hedge shrubs, flowery fallow fields, flowery arable field margins, flowering crops such as Rape, plus plants such as buttercups, thistles and dandelions within relatively improved pasture. Some very rare species were encountered, notably the bee Halictus eurygnathus Blüthgen which had not been seen in Britain since 1946. This was eventually recorded at seven sites and was associated with an abundance of Greater Knapweed. The very rare bees Anthophora retusa (Linnaeus) and Andrena niveata Friese were also observed foraging on several dates during their flight periods, providing a better insight into their ecology and conservation requirements.

DESCRIPTION Integrated Key Characteristics: • Valley sides of varying steepness enclosing the major river floodplains and linking to the adjacent downland. The sides are often indented by dry valleys, and occasionally form steep chalk cliffs. • An expansive large scale landscape containing, and providing the setting for, the floodplain. Some slopes provide excellent views down onto the floodplain revealing patterns of the river channel and meanders that are not a perceptible at ground level. • Soils support arable land on shallower slopes, where large 20th century fields represent extensive re-organisation of the landscape.
