It was therefore not recommended that the restrictions be introduced presently.

Resolved: That KCC Officers revisit proposals as set out in the summary of the report in consultation with the local SDC and KCC Councillors and arrange a site visit. 27.

It is concluded that the location and existing speed vehicles do not meet the criteria to install an enforceable 40mph limit. As such, the current proposals are not considered for installation by KCC. For Information 1.0.1 Introduction and Background 1.1 Kent County Council has received a report from Shoreham Parish Council requesting a reduction in the existing National Speed Limit along Shoreham Road to 40mph. The report details the local communities’ concerns with road safety at this location and requests numerous highway improvements to be carried out. 2.0 Investigations 2.1 The A225 is in a unlit rural location and caters to a high volume of a variety of road users. There are few properties along Shoreham Road which are set back away from the carriageway with no existing footways. 2.2 Traffic surveys were carried out at four sites along the Shoreham Road to ascertain existing vehicle speeds. Data from the speed surveys have been provided to Shoreham Parish Council with a summary of the findings. 2.3 The key factors considered when making decisions on setting local speed limits are existing speed, collision history, road environment, road users and purpose. Most of Kent’s rural network is subject to a National Speed Limit. The posted limit is an absolute maximum and drivers are encouraged to respond in accordance to the environment and the geometric characteristics of the road. National Speed Limits are set with terminal signs placed at the start of the restrictions with no additional repeater signage required. With any reduction in the speed limit it will be necessary to install additional signage to remind drivers throughout the route of the set limit. There is a risk a driver may believe that it is safe to consistently drive at the new stated speed limit throughout the route which is likely to be inappropriate when negotiating hazards such as bends. 2.4 Within the report the Parish Council have expressed concerns with pedestrian safety and requested the installation of pedestrian refuge islands between the bus stops at Shoreham Railway Station and the Public Rights of Way.

  • Sevenoaks District Council 5 Year Supply of Deliverable Housing Sites 2019/20 to 2023/24 Addendum: September 2019
    Sevenoaks District Council 5 Year Supply of Deliverable Housing Sites 2019/20 to 2023/24 Addendum: September 2019 1.1 This addendum has been prepared to supplement the 5 Year Supply of Deliverable Housing Sites [SDC008] submitted alongside the Local Plan in April 2019. 1.2 The 5 Year Supply of Deliverable Housing Sites [SDC008] has been calculated against the local housing need of 707 units per year, in accordance with paragraph 73 of the NPPF. However, the housing requirement set out in the Local Plan is 9,410 units and this figure will replace the local housing need on adoption of the plan, in accordance with paragraph 73 of the NPPF. 1.3 This addendum therefore sets out the calculation of the 5 year supply against the Local Plan housing requirement of 588 units per year. All other aspects of the calculation (application of a 5% buffer, the number of deliverable sites, the qualifying elements of supply) remain as per document SDC008. 1.4 The calculation of the 5 year land supply requirement is set out in the table below. Component Calculation Result (units) A Annual local housing requirement N/A 588 B 5 year requirement A x 5 2,940 C 5% buffer 5% of B 147 D 5 year requirement plus 5% buffer B + C 3,087 1.5 This five year supply of deliverable housing sites assessment identifies a healthy supply of specific deliverable sites in Sevenoaks District that have the capacity to deliver 3,087 residential units in the next 5 years, and 9,410 residential units over the whole of the plan period.

  • Appendix 4 Community Governance Review Sevenoaks District
    Appendix 4 Community Governance Review Sevenoaks District Council’s Draft Recommendations Introduction 1. The Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act (LGPIH) 2007 devolved the power to take decisions relating to the creation or abolition of parishes, the boundaries of parishes and the electoral arrangements of parish councils from the Secretary of State and the Electoral Commission to principal councils. With effect from February 2008, district councils have had the responsibility for undertaking community governance reviews (formerly known as parish reviews) and have been able to decide whether to give effect to recommendations made in those reviews. In making that decision, councils need to take account of the views of local people. 2. Councils are required to have regard to guidance issued by the Secretary of State and the Electoral Commission. Guidance suggests that it is good practice for a principal council to consider conducting a review every 10- 15 years. In Sevenoaks, the last review was completed in 1999 and so it is timely to conduct a fresh review. There is an opportunity now, ahead of any scheduled elections, to conduct this review and have any recommendations implemented at the next full parish council elections in May 2015. At a meeting of the Electoral Arrangements Committee on 27 th October 2011 it was recommended that a community governance review be undertaken in respect of the whole of the Sevenoaks District Council area; Council ratified the Committee’s decision. The Sevenoaks District Council Approach 3. At previous parish reviews, Sevenoaks District Council has taken the view that it is for local people or local groups to suggest changes to the existing set-up.

These should account for social, economic and environmental opportunities and ensure that the location of development is sustainable. The Settlement Hierarchy is a useful tool to determine the role of settlements, according to a number of factors including population size, services available within a settlement, consideration of Green Belt boundaries and transport connections. The Settlement Hierarchy for Sevenoaks District has 5 settlement classifications, ranking from the most sustainable (Principal Town Centre) to the least sustainable type of settlements (Hamlets): Principal Town – Sevenoaks Urban Area (Sevenoaks Town including Bessels Green, Chipstead, Dunton Green and Riverhead), Towns - Swanley, Edenbridge (including Marlpit Hill) and Westerham Local Service Centres – Hartley, New Ash Green and Otford Villages – West Kingsdown, South Darenth, Hextable, Seal, Brasted, Kemsing, Eynsford, Crockenhill, Halstead, Leigh, Farningham, Sevenoaks Weald, Knockholt (with Knockholt Pound), Sundridge, Shoreham, Four Elms, and Horton Kirby..
