Since that time the City Council has undertaken a range of consultation stages – utilising a variety of methods to receive feedback on the Core Strategy, consistent with the approach set out in our Statement of Community Involvement (SCI). These stages will culminate in Submission of the Core Strategy in Autumn 2012. 1.2 This statement sets out which bodies were invited to make representations, how they were invited to do this, a summary of the main issues raised and how they were taken into account, during the various stages of consultation undertaken as part of production of the Core Strategy DPD.

The Council’s Statement of Community Involvement was adopted in June 2007 (Technical Addendum May 2010) and sets out the Council’s approach to consultation, and the organisations and groups which the Council should consult as part of the process. A full breakdown of individuals and organisations the Council has corresponded with is available in Appendix A. Appendix F summarises the key stages of community involvement as set out in the SCI and compares this to the actual engagement process. 4 2) Issues & Options Document 2.1 The City Council and Ashfield District, Broxtowe Borough, Erewash Borough, Gedling Borough, Rushcliffe Borough Council’s held a coordinated consultation on the Issues and Options for the Core Strategy. The consultation period ran for over 6 weeks from Monday 15 th June 2009 to Friday 31 st July 2009. The majority of consultation exercises were undertaken in June and July. Who was consulted? 2.2 The Council consulted the Specific and General consultees as required in the Regulations along with the public, businesses, agents and other organisations within the Greater Nottingham. The full list is set out in appendix A. How was the consultation undertaken? 2.3 At the beginning of the process, the Core Strategy Issues and Options document was deposited at the Deposit points, at all libraries and on the Council’s website. A notice was placed in local newspapers. The Council’s newsletter was distributed to every address in the City with various items of news in it including an article on the Core Strategy. A report was taken to the City Council Portfolio Holder for Neighbourhood Regeneration on 28/04/09 where the Issues & Options was endorsed for consultation.

There were a number of issues raised at this stage including: Part A Comments • Developers felt the East Midlands Regional Plan housing figures should be treated as a minimum, while most others considered the housing provision to be too large • The focus on the built up area of Nottingham was supported, but with some people wanting a little more flexibility on the housing numbers to allow more development elsewhere • Although the vast majority of developers support the use of urban extensions, a small number object to them on principle. Members of the public and environmental groups object to the development of green field sites, especially in areas of high quality landscapes, and feel that a sequential approach should be taken to ensure greater use of brownfield sites. • The provision of or access to employment, retail and community facilities is important to reduce the need to travel • Several house builders stated that the Core Strategy could best support regeneration initiatives by identifying as many deliverable sites as possible through the Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment, and allow a steady release of green field and brownfield sites in areas of high demand alongside brownfield sites in regeneration areas. • Overwhelmingly respondents were against introducing a stringent policy approach to safeguarding all forms of existing employment land 6 and premises as a lot of existing sites were seen as being of poor quality and could be better utilised for other uses. • On balance, the comments did not support a Greater Nottingham overall affordable housing target and did support the development of targets at District level and/or submarket level. • New development to provide or improve access to Green Infrastructure and mitigate any impacts on it Part B City Specific Comments: • The majority of consultation responses indicated support for prioritising family housing on suitable sites • Almost all of the respondents agreeing that the scale of new retail development should be appropriate to the scale of the centre in which it would be located • Most respondents indicated acceptance that there may be some circumstances that would justify the development of existing open spaces and a common view was that priorities in respect of enhancing existing or creating new spaces should be assessed on a case by case basis • Important to balance competing needs for open space having regard to the quality, accessibility and quantity How have these issues been addressed by the Council? 2.5 All of the issues raised were carefully considered and had an important influence on the evolution of the Core Strategy, aiding the preparation of the Option for Consultation document. See also the ‘Issues and Options’ comments tracking table which sets out the comments made in response to each Issue and Option and the way in which these were addressed in the Option for Consultation document, taking account of the particular planning policy context at the time.

    Walk No 16.1: Lady Bay & Holme Pierrepont, Part 1 Walk/Photos taken 7th – 21st November 2020 This walk follows the first part of Walk 2 to Lady Bay and then goes across Trent Fields to the Holme Pierre Country Park & Watersports Centre. There are 2 main options; the full walk (A), of 15km, or a shorter walk (B), just Lady Bay and Trent Fields, of 10.7km. There is also the possibility of parking at Holme Grove, going straight into Trent Fields, or at the Country Park, where there are lots of paths to choose from – I have just included one. The walk is split into 2 documents (to manage file size), this one, 16.1, goes to just before the Watersports Centre; the second part, 16.2, continues around part of the Watersports lake, through the Skylarks Nature Reserve and back via Adbolton Lane-Regatta Way to the canal and back. From Musters Road go along Devonshire Road, across Melton Road and then along Carnarvon Road. Turn right into Exchange Road, past West Bridgford Junior School, and through the alley to Burleigh Road. Turn left and continue past Abbey Road and take the path between the Abbey Road Primary and the St Edmund Campion Schools. Admire the painted hands rainbow. At the end of the path turn right and then left onto Nearsby Drive and then right onto Rufford Way. Go past the Willow Tree pub, turn left at the corner and then ahead, over the little bridge and left along the path which goes to the canal.

  • Heritage at Risk 2016
    East Midlands Summary 2016 he East Midlands Heritage at Risk Register now incorporates entries in the North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire local authority areas, which were Tformerly included in the Yorkshire Heritage at Risk Register. This move reflects the responsibilities for planning advisory and statutory functions in these areas that are now vested in Historic England’s East Midlands team. We welcome the restoration of historic Lincolnshire – at least for Historic England’s purposes! This administrative realignment largely accounts for the increase in East Midlands Register entries in 2016. The bald statistics mask continued success in removing sites from the Register. Anthony Streeten, East Midlands Planning Director, who passed away this year, was a tireless champion of solutions to heritage at risk problems. Many fine places owe their new lease of life to him and the region will benefit from his foresight and work for years to come. Louise Brennan Acting Planning Director, East Midlands Anthony had key roles in Each year brings new information about important securing the futures of heritage that may be eligible for inclusion on the Register.

  • The Engineering Geology of the Nottingham Area, UK
    Downloaded from http://egsp.lyellcollection.org/ by guest on September 29, 2021 The engineering geology of the Nottingham area, UK F. G. Bell1, M. G. Culshaw1,2*, A. Forster1,3 & C. P. Nathanail4 1 British Geological Survey, Keyworth, Nottingham NG12 5GG, UK 2 School of Civil Engineering, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, Birmingham B15 2TT, UK 3 Present address: Radcliffe-on-Trent, Nottingham NG12 2FS, UK 4 School of Geography, University of Nottingham, Nottingham NG7 2RD, UK; Land Quality Management Ltd., Unit 8 Beeston Business Centre, Technology Drive, Nottingham NG9 2ND, UK *Corresponding author (e-mail: [email protected]) Abstract: Nottingham was built near a crossing point on the River Trent in the East Midlands of England. Initially, the city developed on a low sandstone hill close to the north bank of the river, which provided a secure, well-drained location above the marshes that bordered the river. Geologically, Nottingham stands at the boundary between Palaeozoic rocks to the north and west, and Mesozoic and Cenozoic strata to the south and east. The area is underlain by coal-bearing Carboniferous Coal Measures, Permian dolomitic limestones, Permo-Triassic mudstones and weak sandstones, Jurassic clays and Quaternary glacial and alluvial deposits. Artificial deposits, resulting from the social, industrial and mineral extraction activities of the past, cover the natural deposits over much of the area. This geological environment has underpinned the economic development of the area through the mining of coal (now largely ceased), oil extraction that was important during World War II, brickmaking from clays, alluvial sand and gravel extraction from the Trent Valley, and gypsum extraction from the Permo-Triassic mudstones.
