Green Neighbourhood Development Plan (CGNDP). It presents the results of a screening assessment of the proposed CGNDP in accordance with Regulation 9 of the Environmental Assessment of Plans and Programmes Regulations 2004 (EAPPR). It describes the reviews carried out to determine the need for a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) under the EU Strategic Environmental Assessment Directive. It addresses the requirements in six sections: • Section 1 explains the context • Section 2 provides the key information • Section 3 is an initial screening assessment • Section 4 summarises the conclusions of a Habitat Regulations screening assessment • Section 5 provides an evidenced approach to the determination that a Strategic Environmental Assessment is not required • Section 6 summarises the conclusions It includes a statement of reasons for determining that the proposed plan is unlikely to have significant environmental effects and therefore neither a Strategic Environmental Assessment nor an Environmental Impact Assessment is required. Croxley Green Neighbourhood Development Plan [SEA Screening Report, v0.1, 21 Nov 2017] Page 4 STRATEGIC ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT SCREENING REPORT CROXLEY GREEN NEIGHBOURHOOD DEVELOPMENT PLAN 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 CONTEXT 1.1.1 Croxley Green Parish Council has produced a Neighbourhood Development Plan for the administrative area of Croxley Green, setting out the vision, objectives and policies for the development of the parish up to 2032. The proposed Croxley Green Neighbourhood Development Plan (CGNDP) was prepared and submitted to the local planning authority, Three Rivers District Council (TRDC), in January 2017 under Regulation 15 of the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012. It was accompanied by a “basic conditions” statement which: • Explained the context • Demonstrated conformity with the NPPF • Explained how the CGNDP will contribute to sustainable development • Demonstrated conformity with the strategic policies in the TRDC Local Plan • Demonstrated compliance with relevant EU obligations and • Summarised the conclusions 1.1.2 In particular it included a statement of reasons for determining that the proposed plan was unlikely to have significant environmental effects and therefore neither a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) nor an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) was required. This was presented in chapter 5 of the “basic conditions” statement (Compatibility with EU obligations). 1.1.3 Following the submission, TRDC carried out the public consultation required under Regulation 16 of The Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012 between 21 st April and 2 nd June 2017 and referred the proposed Plan and response to the public consultation to the Independent Examiner on 3 July 2017. 1.1.4 Following an initial appraisal of the documentation provided, the Independent Examiner identified issues in relation to EU obligations which she suggested should be remedied. In particular: • In relation to the process for determining the need for a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA). 1.1.5 Consequently the Independent Examination process has been paused to allow these to be addressed. 1.1.6 This document sets out the process by which the Croxley Green Parish Council has determined that the proposed CGNDP does not warrant a Strategic Environmental Assessment under the relevant EU obligations as adopted in national regulations. 1.2 STRATEGIC ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 1.2.1 To be ‘made’, a neighbourhood plan must meet certain Basic Conditions. These include that the making of the plan: Croxley

Contact Details The foundations of this Community Plan are the responses from residents of Chorleywood to a questionnaire circulated to every household in the Parish. A Committee comprising representatives of the main community organisations within Chorleywood has analysed these responses and compiled this report. The main issues and concerns highlighted by residents are: • Protection of our open spaces and green environment • Lack of adequate parking facilities in the shopping area • Lack of diversity of shops and businesses in the village • Üóèèçìñê÷õäĦæòñïòæäïõòäçö • Öäìñ÷äìñìñêèģèæ÷ìùèóïäññìñêæòñ÷õòïöæòñöìçèõìñê the local demographics. • Senior school admissions policies Ýëìöçòæøðèñ÷öè÷öòø÷öóèæìĤæ÷òóìæö÷òåèìñùèö÷ìêä÷èçäñç allocates them to local organisations who have agreed to accept responsibility for follow-through. A Community Plan is a document setting out achievable aims and visions for the future of a community, based upon the views of its residents gathered through survey, research and community participation. The Localism Act 2011 gave communities a greater say in the development of their area. In October 2013, the Parish Council decided to use the powers of the Localism Act along with wider-reaching aims and objectives covering other aspects of community life, to produce a Community Plan and Neighbourhood Development Plan (NDP) for Chorleywood. A Steering Group, led by the Parish Council, was formed from a large number of community-interest groups.

  • Full Council Meeting
    Chorleywood Parish Council: Full Council meeting - Notes by GH (in attendance as a member of the public) of matters relevant to Chorleywood Common raised at the meeting on 29th January 2013 The meeting observed a minute’s silence in memory of the late Cllr Dr Norman Eve, who died shortly before Christmas. Public Forum: Mrs M Larkin, of Chorleywood Residents’ Association, congratulated the Council on the award of Higher Level Stewardship funding, and said that recreational uses of the Common should have equal priority with conservation; the Residents’ Association sup- ported the suggested Woodland Play Area, and hoped that a Dog Control Order would be made and would make fencing the Play Area unnecessary; it would be desirable to put forward, as a reserve, an alternative to location 13 (near Shepherd’s Bridge parking area). GH, FoCC, said that the Friends supported the grazing project and were interested in the “virtual fence” suggestion; we would welcome the chance to be represented, if there was room, at any meeting to see the system in use. On the Play Area, there was a bal- ance to be struck between recreation and conservation; the proposal would be on the agenda for discussion at the Friends’ forthcoming AGM and a variety of views were likely to be expressed; it might well be suggested that location 13 had not been specifi- cally considered in previous consultations and that residents should be invited to express a preference as between that location and the Chorleywood House Estate. Mr R Hartley supported the proposal for the Parish Council to take over the mainte- nance of the listed telephone kiosk on the A404 (opposite the Gate public house); and suggested that the arrangements for members of the public to speak at Council and Committee meetings could be varied to allow contributions after the discussion of par- ticular items, rather than being confined to the opening of each meeting.

On the way to Kew Gardens for the ice skating today the 28th December on the Chiswick roundabout, I spotted a Red Admiral flying past. Then while waiting for the children to get their boots on at the ice rink another Red Admiral flew past, probably disturbed from it's hibernation from the massive influx of people, or the fact it was a very warm day for this time of year? If this is the result of global warming, well it's not all bad!! Helen George My father told me that he saw a butterfly in Bronte Paths, Stevenage this morning. I assume it was a Red Admiral (just hope it wasnt a wind blown leaf!. It was very warm today, with lots of insects and one or two bees in my garden but despite all my attention no butterflies appeared - Phil Bishop Tuesday 26th December I enjoyed today even more with a totally unexpected Red Admiral flying along the eaves of my house and then the neighbours, at about 10.45 this am - weather was grey, dull and 5C.

The plan will decide where new houses, jobs and services will go over the period to 2021 and how we safeguard the environment. The Council wants to make sure that all sections of the community have the chance to be actively involved in preparing the new plan. Planning can affect everyone’s day to day lives, whether it’s your neighbour wanting to build an extension, a proposal for a new supermarket, new flats or offices, or the provision of a skate park in one of our recreation grounds. It is important to comment on where new development should go, which areas should be protected and what standards should be applied. Our communities, groups and societies should have the chance to be actively involved in developing policies and proposals for the district.

  • Abstraction Licence Application Decision Statement Template
    DECISION STATEMENT ABSTRACTION LICENCE APPLICATION Affinity Water Limited Application number: NPS/WR/027731 Licence number: 28/39/28/0480 EA Area: Hertfordshire North London Date of Application: 13 September 2019 Decision Date: 06 July 2021 Applicant details: Affinity Water Limited Tamblin Way Hatfield Hertfordshire AL10 9EZ 1. Summary of the proposal: Affinity Water Limited applied to vary their full abstraction licence 28/39/28/0480, which permits abstraction from the Chalk groundwater aquifer for the purpose of public water supply across nine sites in the Colne Valley, collectively referred to as the ‘Blackford Group’. The application comprised of two distinct components: A. Renewal of a time-limited annual volume (annual aggregate) which permits an increase in the annual abstraction rate across the group from 29,200,000 to 32,120,000 cubic metres. This variation was originally granted in 2003. This component has been renewed up to 31 March 2025 to align with the end of the seventh Asset Management Period (AMP7), during which alternative supply options will be identified if further investigations under the Water Framework Directive (WFD) find that this abstraction is having an adverse impact on the Chalk groundwater body or dependent surface waterbodies. B. Variation [increase] in the peak hourly and daily abstraction rates at West Hyde and Batchworth sites of abstraction, to mitigate a potential reduction in supply from other sites within the Blackford Group as a result of construction works associated with HS2. This proposal forms part of a wider strategy put forward by Affinity, which includes the variation granted to the Watford Group licence 28/39/28/0270 on 21 May 2021.
