SHLAA), the Council Makes the Following Disclaimer Without Prejudice

Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment “Allerdale – a great place to live, Mainwork and Report visit” March 2013 Important Notice – Disclaimer

In relation to the information contained within the Allerdale Borough Council Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA), the Council makes the following disclaimer without prejudice:

• The SHLAA only identifies sites with future development potential. It does not allocate sites to be developed. The Council will decide the allocation of sites for future housing development through the Site Allocations process.

• The identification of potential housing sites within the SHLAA does not imply that the Council would necessarily grant planning permission for residential development on these sites. Any applications would be considered against the appropriate policies in the relevant development plan documents and having regard to any other material considerations.

• The inclusion of potential housing sites within the study does not prevent them from being considered for other purposes.

• The boundaries of sites are based on the information available at the time. The SHLAA does not limit an extension or contraction of these boundaries for the purpose of a planning application.

• The fact that a site is not included in the study does not preclude the possibility of planning permission for residential development being granted on it. It is acknowledged that sites will continue to come forward that may be suitable for residential development that have not been identified in the SHLAA.

• The categorisation of sites in terms of whether they are considered deliverable or developable is based on an assessment at the time of the study. Circumstances or assumptions may change which may mean that sites could come forward sooner or later than originally envisaged.

• The housing capacity of site included in the SHLAA has been estimated using a benchmark of 30 dwellings per hectare. However this does not mean that this density is appropriate for each individual site, which would need to be assessed through the planning process when a planning application is submitted.

• The information included in the SHLAA is ‘snapshot’ based on information that was available at the time of the study, and is therefore unable to take account of any changes in circumstances. It is important to recognise that:

• There may be additional constraints on some sites that were not identified at the time of the assessment • Constraints identified on some sites may now have been addressed • Sites identified in the document may have secured permission since the information was compiled and published. Applicants are therefore advised to carry out their own analysis of sites to identify any constraints or other information for the purpose of a planning application and not rely solely on the findings of the SHLAA. 1 Introduction 1

• Net developable area (“NDA”)

In relation to density, the proposed density standard set out in the emerging Local Plan, of 30 dwellings per hectare, has been used.

With regards to NDA, assumptions were made in relation to the percentage of the area of the site that would be taken up by infrastructure (roads, hard standing) and open space:

• Sites > 3 hectares: 75% NDA • Sites 2-3 hectares: 80% NDA • Sites 1-2 hectares: 85% NDA • Sites <1 hectare: 90% NDA

Table 6 illustrates that based on the total capacity SHLAA sites within each tier of the settlement hierarchy exceed the target set out in the emerging Local Plan.

In terms of the larger settlements in the hierarchy which have their identified growth targets, with the exception of Silloth, there is sufficient land to meet this requirement over the plan period. In the specific case of Silloth, sites have been identified in the adjacent villages of Blitterlees and Skinburness which could be used to offset this deficiency if required.

The results of the SHLAA demonstrate that the proposed housing strategy contained within the Core Strategy is deliverable at a strategic level:

• The gross capacity of sites included exceeds the proposed housing target for the plan period

• The gross capacity of sites included exceeds the housing targets identified for each tier of the proposed settlement hierarchy

There are insufficient deliverable site identified within settlement of Cockermouth. This is due to capacity problems at the wastewater treatment works (“WwTW”) serving the town. In this case it is proposed to phase housing delivery in the town to the back end of the plan period to allow the necessary upgrades to the WwTW to be implemented.
