II East Riding of Yorkshire Council Non-Technical Summary Non-Technical Summary Introduction This Sustainability Appraisal (SA) Scoping Report forms the starting point for the SA process which will guide the preparation and assessment of the East Riding Local Plan. It will help to ensure that the SA for the Local Plan incorporates the requirements of Strategic Environment Assessment (SEA) and is proportionate and relevant. The existing SA for the adopted Local Plan included a separate report and framework for each Local Plan document. The new SA framework will be used to inform all future Local Plan documents, except those relating only to minerals or waste management development. What is SA? SA is a systematic process that must be carried out during the preparation of a Local Plan. Its role is to promote sustainable development by assessing the extent to which the emerging Plan, when judged against reasonable alternatives, will help to achieve relevant environmental, economic and social objectives. Work on the SA should start at the same time that work starts on developing the Plan. SA Methodology The Planning Practice Guidance (PPG) splits the SA process into five stages (A-E). They are: a) Set the context and objectives, establishing the baseline and deciding on the scope; b) Develop and refine alternatives and assess effects; c) Prepare the SA report; d) Seek representations on the SA report from consultation bodies and the public; and e) Post adoption reporting and monitoring. This document represents Stage A, the scoping stage, of the process. It has been prepared following best practice and guidance which indicate that the East Riding SA Scoping Report should include: A review of relevant plans, programmes and policies; Baseline information about the East Riding; Identification of key issues and problems that can be affected by planning policies; and A sustainability appraisal framework, including a review of the SA objectives and indicators used to assess the Local Plan. East Riding of Yorkshire Council III Non-Technical Summary Stage A1- Relationship with other Plans, Programmes and Policies The Scoping Report provides information on: The relationship of the Local Plan with other plans, programmes and policies (PPP); A summary of the sustainability objectives of the other PPP; and How the other PPP will be taken into account in the preparation of the Local Plan. Over 170 PPP have been reviewed, this has helped identify their objectives and targets so they can be reflected in the sustainability objectives of the SA Scoping Report. This should help to prevent conflict between proposals within the Local Plan and other relevant documents, and take advantage of any common objectives in the different documents. Stage A2 – Baseline Baseline information on the current state of the East Riding has been presented, focusing on a wide range of social, economic and environmental characteristics. This information has been collected to: Identify current baseline conditions in the area; Find out trends in the data for the area; Identify sustainability problems and opportunities; Identify ways of dealing with problems and taking opportunities that exist in the area; and Inform the development of the Local Plan and predict the likely effects resulting from its implementation. Stage A3 – Sustainability Issues and Problems Sustainability issues and problems in the East Riding have been identified from the review of relevant PPP and the baseline data. The issues and problems identified are: 1) Appropriate locations for development 2) High proportion of lower value jobs 3) Support local growth 4) Demand for new and improved infrastructure 5) Unbalanced demographic

  • The Humber Metro
    The Humber Metro The Humber Metro is a very futuristic concept, depending, as it does, on the existence of the Humber tunnel between Goxhill and the approach to Paragon station, proposed as part of HS10 in the ‘HS Eastern Routes and Service Plans’ article. As noted there, although the tunnel will be built to GC gauge, it is intended from the outset to be shared with Regional Metro traffic between Cleethorpes and Hull, which will at least initially be of UK loading gauge. The Humber Metro covers the area from Selby and Goole in the west to Cleethorpes and Withernsea in the east, and from Grimsby in the south to Bridlington in the north. The core section, built to GC-gauge, as all new infrastructure should be, runs in tunnel under the centre of Hull between Paragon (LL) and Cannon St. (former H&B) stations, with a connection to the Hornsea / Withernsea lines just before Wilmington, and another to the Beverley line at Cottingham. Other than that (and the Humber tunnel, of course,) it takes over the routes of existing and former, long closed, branches. The proposed metro services fall into two groups, either cross-river or west-east along the north bank. The services of the first group are: 2tph Cleethorpes – New Clee – Grimsby Docks – Grimsby Town – West Marsh – Great Coates – Healing – Stallingborough – Habrough – Ulceby – Thornton Abbey – Goxhill – Hull Paragon (LL) – George St. – Cannon St. – Beverley Rd. – Jack Kaye Walk – Cottingham – Beverley – Arram – Lockington – Hutton Cranswick – Great Driffield – Nafferton – Lowthorpe – Burton Agnes – Carnaby – Bridlington 2tph Cleethorpes – New Clee – Grimsby Docks – Grimsby Town – West Marsh – Great Coates – Healing – Stallingborough – Habrough – Ulceby – Thornton Abbey – Goxhill – Hull Paragon (LL) – George St.

  • Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) 10
    Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) 10 Trees Adopted 7 January 2019 1 1. Introduction / summary 1.1 This Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) acts as guidance to policies in the Hull Local Plan 2016 to 2032, adopted in November 2017. The Local Plan is a 16 year document which sets out the vision for growth in Hull. It identifies the quantity and location for new housing, community facilities, shops and employment provision. 1.2 This document provides planning guidance on Policy 45 – ‘Trees’. It gives advice as to how future planting of trees and tree protection should be addressed via the planning process and the considerations that need to be taken into account before, during and after development. 1.3 Local Plan policy seeks to promote an increase in the provision and diversity of green infrastructure, particularly tree and woodland provision, for its benefits in urban cooling, health and well-being, and conserving and enhancing biodiversity. 1.4 The Supplementary Planning Document seeks to: • Provide clarity to developers, statutory consultees, local residents and other stakeholders; • Outline the national and local planning policy context that guides how trees should be considered in development. • Outline the broad benefits of trees and woodland to the city. • Explain what role trees have in contributing to the distinctive character of areas within the city ; • Explain how new planting of trees should be incorporated into future development, either on site or where this is not possible where future planting should be directed. This includes how planting can be directed to achieve objectives of increasing biodiversity and to support flood risk mitigation.

The Government issued further guidance on planning for minerals in the National Planning Practice Guidance (NPPG), incorporating previous guidance on the Managed Aggregate Supply System (MASS). This report is the sixth LAA that aims to meet the requirements set out in both of these documents. It is based on sales information data covering the calendar years up to 2018. Landbank data is 2018-based. Sales and land bank information is sourced from annual surveys of aggregate producers in the Humber area (East Riding of Yorkshire, Kingston upon Hull, North East Lincolnshire & North Lincolnshire), alongside data from the Yorkshire & Humber Aggregates Working Party Annual Monitoring Reports, planning applications, the Crown Estate, and the Environment Agency.
