Re-design prompts thinking… Extra care creates more density Not all current retail or More density commercial reduces space is future required pressure www.cornwall.gov.uk Where did it come from? • Honest reflection of current conversations • A trigger is that the EIA is underway to confirm quantum and layout • “Up to” to acknowledge we need to plan for maximum infrastructure not minimum infrastructure – water, power, drainage, schools, health • The process of re-design of existing permissions gives chance to review capacity to provide for future needs • Opportunity for items like extra care increases density • Not all commercial or retail areas in current consents are required • Twenty year phased build – therefore better use of land now reduces pressure on other areas of Truro and Threemilestone in future • No decisions taken on final numbers – stakeholder panel has important role • (HIF bid and announcement previously had to make broad assumptions for long term beyond current plan period) www.cornwall.gov.uk Stadium for Cornwall Planning Applications – Cornish Pirates Ltd has submitted applications to discharge all the pre- commencement planning conditions.

    Read the Town Investment Plan

    A Connected River City Truro Town Investment Plan TRURU A’GAS DYNNERGH Trurra is a proud Cornish town with roots in prehistory and a good nose for the future. It’s a town of bridges - over rivers, tides, between professions and commerce, people and institutions, between the temporal and spiritual dimensions, and between cultures. Trurra is constantly evolving and is yet as constant in its community’s hearts as eels are in its rivers. This programme is an evolutionary route for a town faced with intense change. It bonds economic reality with environmental responsibility and social development. It reaches out and looks deeply inwards. As we speak, caught in the rip of pandemic, it’s young people for whom we must lay out opportunity and structure for the future. As the Mayor I commend the thinking, contributions and passion which has formed this Plan in such short order and with such generous intellectual endeavour. Truru bys vykken.

    Retail Statement

    Retail Statement On behalf of: In respect of: “Outline mixed use proposal for retail (Use Class A1) with associated petrol filling station and car parking (providing space for mobile library), food and drink (Use Classes A3, A4 and A5) / day nursery (Use Class D1) and residential (Use Class C3) alongside the provision of a community and sports facility (Use Classes D1 and D2), public open space (including formal playing pitch provision), and other associated infrastructure (inclusive of linkage to consented Langarth/Stadium sites). [Means of access to be determined only]” Date: August 2014 Reference: GH/MO/R0001 Cardiff Sophia House, 28 Cathedral Road, Cardiff CF11 9LJ Tel: 029 20660265 Executive Summary This application proposal will deliver the Western District Centre, residential units, community facilities and will enable the Stadium for Cornwall to be built. The application proposals meet the identified retail need and provide residents with a choice of retail offer. It meets this need at a site which is a natural extension to the approved Langarth mixed-use scheme and one which provides strong links to the Stadium for Cornwall and the wider development of the surrounding area, thereby meeting the requirements of the sequential test. The application proposal will principally compete with similar developments both within and outside of Truro. Whilst the city centre will experience some trade diversion, the over trading of existing shops and the annual growth in retail expenditure means that the impact will not be significantly adverse and the turnover of the city centre will still increase even with the proposals. Crucially, the application proposals will deliver economic, social and environmental benefits to the local community.

It achieves this through capital raised from the development of a mixed-use scheme at West Langarth. The profit from this scheme is used to fund the construction of the stadium, with any additional profit from the planning application held to facilitate subsequent phases of development of the stadium to meet the needs of the tennents, the Cornish Pirates Rugby Union Club and Truro City Football Club. The principle of enabling development is well-established, having been used to facilitate a wide range of proposals throughout the UK over the past 20 years, specifically, a number relating to the provision of community and sports stadia. As such, the principle of enabling development is lawful and well established. The planning application will be linked to the enabling of the stadium through a S106 legal agreement. As such, there is no risk of the stadium not being delivered if panning permission is granted for the West Langarth proposals.
