The task of the East Riding Local Plan is to make sure that the right scale and type of development takes place in the right locations at the right time. The Local Plan must be prepared in accordance with national planning policy but be sensitive to locally identified needs and priorities. We face a number of challenges including the risk of flooding and problems relating to the remoteness of some of our settlements, but there are also many strengths and opportunities. We need to respond to these to ensure that sustainable development benefits as many people as possible. We have a growing and increasingly ageing population and whilst the majority of our communities enjoy a high quality of life, deprivation is evident in some areas. Making new housing affordable is a key challenge, and ensuring people have access to services, particularly in our rural areas, remains a priority. Yet, we have a rich, diverse and distinctive landscape, with communities of different sizes where people enjoy living and spending their leisure time. We also have fantastic businesses and workers, and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to transform the local economy into a leading centre for renewable energy. This Allocations Document is a key part of the East Riding Local Plan. It identifies specific sites where development will come forward, providing guidance on how development can be maximised for the benefit of all. The development of these sites will help respond to the challenges and opportunities identified in the East Riding, particularly in terms of delivering much needed housing and providing space for businesses to grow and invest. Importantly, the Allocations Document provides a degree of certainty for communities, developers and infrastructure providers over the long term to 2029. We have developed strong relationships with communities as well as businesses and other stakeholders during the preparation of the Local Plan. This has enabled us to produce a document reflecting the needs and aspirations of communities and also the priorities set out in the East Riding Community Plan. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those involved in the preparation of the Local Plan. We look forward to working with you in the future to ensure that the policies and proposals in the Plan are delivered and that together we create a sustainable future for the East Riding.

Once individual documents are adopted they will be used to guide investment decisions and determine planning applications. 1.2 A number of documents make up the Local Plan. These are listed below and illustrated by Figure 1. Strategy Document – sets the overall strategic direction for the Local Plan, setting policies to guide decisions on planning applications. Allocations Document – allocates sites for development (such as housing, retail, or industry) or protection (such as open space or land for transport schemes). Bridlington Town Centre Area Action Plan (AAP) – provides specific policies to guide development and contribute to the urban renaissance of Bridlington Town Centre. 1.3 In addition, a Joint Waste Plan and Joint Minerals Plan are being prepared with Hull City Council. These will set out the policies used to provide for future waste management needs and mineral extraction, and will be used to make decisions on new waste and minerals development in the East Riding. 1.4 The documents listed above are complemented by a Policies Map. It will show designations, such as areas of open space or biodiversity assets, and allocations for particular land use(s), which relate to specific policies in the Local Plan. 1.5 Once complete, the Local Plan will replace previous planning policies that cover the East Riding. These are set out in the Joint Structure Plan for Hull and the East Riding, the four Local Plans for the former boroughs of Beverley, Boothferry, East Yorkshire and Holderness, and the Joint Minerals and Waste Local Plans. Appendix A lists those policies that are superseded by the Allocations Document. Other documents 1.6 The Local Plan will be supported by Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs) that add further guidance to the interpretation and delivery of policies within other documents. These are not subject to independent testing and do not have 'Development Plan' status. 2 East Riding Local Plan Allocations Document - Adopted July 2016 Introduction 1 1.7 The Council's Local Development Scheme (LDS) provides an outline of the various Local Plan documents and a timescale for their preparation. The Annual Monitoring Report (AMR) sets out performance against local indicators and targets from the Local Plan and the Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) outlines how the Council will involve the local community, stakeholders and statutory bodies in the preparation of the Local Plan. 1.8 A Town or Parish Council can prepare a community-led Neighbourhood Development Plan (NDP) to set out a vision and planning policies that are specific to their neighbourhood area. Once adopted by the Council, NDPs form part of the statutory Development Plan, and would be used to make decisions on planning applications. Figure 1 The East Riding Local Plan Structure The Allocations Document 1.9 The Allocations Document contains policies that guide the development of specific sites and should be read alongside the Strategy Document (2016) and Policies Map. It allocates sufficient sites, alongside existing commitments, to meet the development needs of the East Riding identified in the Strategy Document (2016) to 2029. The document has been prepared following extensive and early consultation with residents, Town and Parish Councils, the development industry, other organisations and statutory bodies. Potential Sites (May 2010) marked the first stage in the process and presented all sites that were being considered through the preparation of the Allocations Document at that time. East Riding Local Plan Allocations Document - Adopted July 2016 3 1 Introduction Draft Allocations Document (January 2013) set out the preferred site allocations that were proposed for development, as well as other sites that had been rejected. Proposed Major Changes (August 2013) set out a number of major changes to the preferred site allocations. Proposed Submission (January 2014) set out the version of the document that was subsequently considered by an independent planning inspector through an examination in public, and was subject to additional consultation on a number of modifications. Sustainability Appraisal and Habitats Regulation Assessment 1.10 The preparation of the Allocations Document has been informed by a Sustainability Appraisal (SA), incorporating Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA), and a Habitat Regulations Assessment (HRA). The SA assesses the potential impacts of policies in relation to economic, social and environmental considerations alongside other alternative options that were considered during the preparation of this document. 1.11 A HRA Stage 1 Screening Report has considered whether the policies and proposals in the Allocations Document are likely to have significant effects upon European Sites of nature conservation interests. This is complemented by a Stage 2 Appropriate Assessment that focuses on the employment allocation at Hedon Haven. Where a potential impact has been identified, it specifies those mitigation measures which have been considered through the relevant policies of the Local Plan. Site Assessment 1.12 Each allocation presented in this document has been assessed using the framework set out in the published Site Assessment Methodology (2011, with January 2014 update).
