Forward Plan Reference FP/Ƒ Forward Plan Reference FP/608/08/11 KEY DECISION TAKEN BY THE CABINET MEMBER FOR PROCUREMENT, PROPERTY AND MAJOR PROJECTS Originating Officer: Geraldine Willden Ext: 30677 Purpose of Report Epping Expansion Programme: Coopersale & Theydon Garnon C of E Voluntary Controlled Primary School Epping Upland C of E Primary School Ivy Chimneys County Primary School Proposal to increase the permanent accommodation in three Epping primary schools to provide additional basic need pupil places by September 2012. For best value and economies of scale the three projects have been combined into one design and build package. Decision: I have made the following decision: I approve the project to provide additional permanent accommodation at three Epping Primary Schools and the placing of the contract order for the construction of: • 2 new class bases and associated accommodation at Coopersale and Theydon Garnon C of E Voluntary Controlled Primary School • 3 new class bases with associated accommodation, a hard-play area and netball court at Epping Upland C of E Primary School • 3 new class bases with associated accommodation and internal remodelling at Ivy Chimneys Primary School. The total capital cost is £2,074,112 and is contained within the 2011/12 and 2012/13 Education Capital Programme and includes Section 106 developer contributions of £284,000. Furniture and equipment costs total £30,000 and will be met by a separate revenue budget. KD06-FP-608-08-11 Decision Page 1 of 7 Background, context, and area of the County affected Pre-school numbers in Epping are rising significantly as a result of an increased birth rate and housing development. In September 2012 there will be a need for up to 30 additional reception places. Longer term forecasts indicate that this is a sustained need and the School Organisation Board agreed exploration of additional permanent provision to balance future supply and demand for places. The proposal is for three Epping Primary schools to be provided with permanent additional accommodation: • Coopersale & Theydon Garnon C of E Voluntary Controlled Primary School • Epping Upland C of E Primary School • Ivy Chimneys County Primary School Milestones Board approval of Outline Business Case 7th April 2011 Completion of specifications and client requirements 15th April 2011 Tender Offer via SmarteEast framework June 2011 Appointment of SmarteEast contractor July 2011 Outline design completed September 2011 Planning application submitted October 2011 Planning consent granted December 2011 Confirmation of Target price February 2012 Board approval of Final Business Case & Key Decision March 2012 Construction starts April 2012 Construction complete August 2012 Options Infrastructure Delivery (ID) assisted Schools Children and Families (SCF) to identify suitable schools for expansion in order to meet the projected demand in each local area. Following the identification of suitable sites SCF and ID secured the support of the Head and governing body. A viability evaluation for each of the schools’ accommodation requirements was undertaken to ensure that each project was feasible. For best value and to maximise economies of scale the three project proposals were put together into one tender package. The procurement route selected was via the second generation SmarteEast framework and a two-stage design and build mini-competition was held between the six contractors in tier 2. It was anticipated that early engagement of the contractor and the proposed design team would encourage a best value for money solution. Conclusions KD06-FP-608-08-11 Decision Page 2 of 7 The tender submissions were compared via an evaluation model and the results showed Lakehouse Contracts Ltd. to be the first ranked company. A Tender Evaluation Report was compiled by the ECC building economist. A period of detailed design followed and planning permission was sought and obtained. Individual work packages were tendered by Lakehouse and a Final Target Cost agreed. Proposals The following is proposed: Coopersale & Theydon Garnon Primary School Provision of a new classroom block containing two standard class bases plus space for pupils’ coats and bags and classroom storage. A group room, cleaner’s cupboard and WCs are situated within the new building. The new block will be separate from the existing school and a covered walkway linking the two buildings together will be installed. Epping Upland Primary School The school will be extended to house three class-bases, two standard class bases and one foundation class base, plus a coat and bag storage area and classroom store. A group room, staff work area, cleaner’s cupboard, WCs and associated plant space are included. A new external play area to the foundation class-base and a hard-play area with a netball court will also be provided. Ivy Chimneys Primary School The school will be extended to house three additional class-bases plus space for pupils’ coats and bags and class store. A group room, cleaner’s cupboard and WCs are also sited within the extension. Additionally, some remodelling works are also required within the school which will include remodelling the existing staff room (formerly a classroom) back into a classroom. Remodelling to provide a replacement staff room of an appropriate size for a 330 place school and remodelling of pupil WCs and changing areas. The schemes are due to start on site at the start of the Easter break (2nd April), with some enabling work in March, and complete by August 2012 in time for the new school term in September. KD06-FP-608-08-11 Decision Page 3 of 7 Relevance to ECC’s corporate plan and other Strategic Plans This project is included in the Education Capital Programme and is necessary to provide sufficient pupil places in Epping as a result of population growth. This links to the corporate plan objective that pledges to “ensure sufficient primary school places to cope with growth in pupil numbers”. ECC has a statutory responsibility to provide a school place for all primary aged children for whom a place is requested. Internal and External Consultation A separate public consultation meeting was held at each school during September. Summary results were as follows: Coopersale & Theydon Garnon PS No. of attendees 45 No. of feedback forms received 20 Percentage of those supporting the scheme 95% % of those supporting but with concerns 5% (concerns with parking congestion) Positive comments Plans well thought out and presented Epping Upland No. of attendees 28 No. of feedback forms received 9 Percentage of those supporting the scheme 44% % of those supporting but with concerns 56% (concerns with parking and future expansion) Positive comments Plans generally liked and choice of site for extension was thought practical. Epping, Ivy Chimneys No. of attendees 68 No. of feedback forms received 15 Percentage of those supporting the 67% scheme % of those supporting but with concerns 27% (concerns about parking congestion and disruption during construction) % of those not in support of the scheme 6% (concerns regarding health and (one person objected but this translates safety of local residents and school into 6% of feedback forms) pupils due to added vehicle congestion at school drop-off and pick-up times) Positive comments Design is well structured and the position of the new build looks good. KD06-FP-608-08-11 Decision Page 4 of 7 The following County Council Members have been briefed: Cllr. John Knapman – Chigwell and Loughton Broadway Cllr. Janet Whitehouse – Epping and Theydon Bois Cllr. Christopher Pond – Loughton Central Cllr. Anthony Jackson – North Weald and Nazeing Cllr. Gerard McEwen – Ongar and Rural Cllr. Elizabeth Webster – Waltham Abbey Planning applications were submitted in October 2011 and, following the statutory period of consultation, planning consent was granted for each scheme in December 2011. Legal Implications (Monitoring Officer) The scope of the Epping projects is not large enough to require the publication of statutory notices. Informal public consultation meetings were held at each school (see internal and external consultation as above.) Finance and Resources Implications (Section 151 Officer) Section 106 Budget S106 Developer Contributions have been negotiated by colleagues in the School Organisation and Planning team within the Schools Children and Families directorate for the Epping area, and money has been deposited in Sums on Deposit (SOND) accounts. Some interest will have accrued on these accounts and it is intended to use the full amount including the interest. SOND Account Amount SOND 1148 £268,000 SOND 1289 £16,000 The S106 funding above can only be used to fund projects that will add capacity to existing schools in a given area by providing additional teaching areas, or contributing towards the cost of new schools that will serve growth areas. The S106 contributions identified above will be allocated to the Coopersale & Theydon Garnon project as identified below.

  • Epping Forest Gaynes Park Theydon Garnon Tl 484
    EPPING FOREST GAYNES PARK THEYDON GARNON TL 484 017 Ancient deer park dating from the C13 with remains of C19 gardens, including a formal parterre and rockery, wild garden, and tree plantations. More evidence remains of early C20 gardens to the south of the mansion. HISTORIC DEVELOPMENT Gaynes Park, also known as Park Hall, Gaines or Genis, was part of a medieval deer park belonging to the manor of Theydon Garnon. The estate appears to have been formed out of the forest (Waltham) during the reign of King Henry III when Robert Garnon secured a licence to enclose his wood at Taydon for a park. The estate derived its name from John Engaine who occupied the property at one time, and in 1578, during the ownership of Sir FitzWiliam, Queen Elizabeth I visited Gaynes during her Progress through East Anglia (Davey). In 1650 the Manor is described as having a brick built house, gardens, orchards, yards, stables, outhouses enclosed with brick walls and three acres of land, fishponds, and a store of young timber plus 450 acres (Particular). It is also described as being well supplied with water and well stocked with deer (D/Dac 229). During the C17 an additional 700 acres were added to the estate (VCH). The original house, Park Hall, was demolished by 1740 and was replaced by a new house built a short distance away on higher ground (Chapman and André). By 1781 the property belonged to Thomas Coxhead, passing to his son William Coxhead-Marsh, and later the Chisenhale-Marsh family. Around the turn of the century Mr Marsh is described as one of the largest landowners in the area.

  • CHAPTER 1: *ANTHONY POTTER Page 68 Stondon Massey, Essex
    Stondon Massey, Essex: There was a "Whipple’s Farm" at Stondon Massey (Stondon), Essex that may have been owned or occupied originally by the WHIPPLE0 brothers, MATTHEW WHIPPLE0 (1588 – 1647) and JOHN WHIPPLE0 (1596 – 1669), of Bocking, Essex.19 The Puritan Reverend NATHANIEL WARD0 (1578 – 1652) was rector of Stondon Massey (later known as “St. Peter & St. Paul Church”) from 1626 or 1628 until he was compelled to immigrate to New England in 1634. In 1630 Stondon Massey was located just 16 miles northeast of London in southwest Essex County and was only 20 miles from Bocking. [Note: Today Stondon Massey is a suburb of London. It is just 4 miles north of Brentwood half way to Chipping Ongar up route A128. Brentwood is on the northeast side of London just outside motorway M25, the beltway around London. In August 1594, MATTHEW WHIPPLE-1 (ca. 1560 – 1619) was one of eleven witnesses in the court session at Brentwood where seven defendants were brought from Colchester prison to stand trial.] Interestingly, Stondon Massey was only eight (8) miles east of Theydon Garnon, Epping, Essex where STEPHEN CLARKE-1 (1566 – 1610) and his family lived, which may have included *JOANNA CLARK POTTER0, the possible mother of *ANTHONY POTTER1 (ca. 1628 – 1690). Also, this may explain how JOHN WHIPPLE0 (1596 – 1669) met his first wife, SUSANNA CLARKE WHIPPLE0 (ca. 1594 – before 1634), and why they married in nearby London, England. [Note: Today Theydon Garnon, Epping, Essex is a suburb of London. It is located on the northeast side of London on motorway M11 just north of the junction of motorways M11 and M25.

  • 3.0 Landscape Character of Epping Forest District 3.1
    3.0 LANDSCAPE CHARACTER OF EPPING FOREST DISTRICT 3.1 General 3.1.1 This section of the report provides the detailed ‘profiles’ of Landscape Character Types and Areas within Epping Forest District, structured as follows: Landscape Character Types • Location and boundaries • Key Characteristics • Landscape Character Areas • Proposed Landscape Strategy Objectives Landscape Character Areas • Location and boundaries of character area • Photograph • Key Characteristics • Overall Character Description • Visual Characteristics • Historic Land Use • Ecological Features • Key planning and land management issues • Sensitivities to change • Suggested landscape planning guidelines • Suggested landscape management guidelines 3.1.2 The profiles should be read as a whole to inform decision making. As acknowledged by the latest guidance,15 landscape is a continuum and character does not in general change abruptly on the ground. More commonly, the character of the landscape will change gradually rather than suddenly, and therefore the boundaries between landscape character units should be considered to reflect zones of transition in many cases. In addition, the boundaries have been defined and mapped at a scale of 1:25,000, and the assessment is therefore only suitable for use at this scale. This should be taken into consideration when the assessment is being used to inform decision-making in relation to development and land management proposals at the local level. 15 Countryside Agency/Scottish Natural Heritage (2002) Landscape Character Assessment – Guidance for England and Scotland January 2010 35 Epping Forest District Council Landscape Character Assessment 11110601R Final Report_EC_21-01-10 Chris Blandford Associates 3.1.3 Where boundaries of Landscape Character Types and Areas extend outside the District boundary, these have been mapped on Figure 3.1.
