Housing and Infrastructure Havant Borough Core Strategy March 2011 ii Havant Borough Core Strategy March 2011 Havant Borough Core Strategy Foreword The Havant Borough Core Strategy is a very important document. It sets the planning framework for our communities until 2026. In preparing this strategy the council has sought to address local needs, especially for housing and economic development, with an emphasis on high quality design and stewardship of the borough’s high quality natural and built environment. The Core Strategy has been prepared working closely with partner organisations, including the Havant Local Strategic Partnership, the Partnership for Urban South Hampshire (PUSH), local communities and agencies. There have been three major public consultations – Issues and Options consultation in 2006, the Preferred Options consultation in 2008 and consultation on the Draft Core Strategy in 2009. The Submitted Core Strategy was then subject to a Public Examination in September 2010. The council would like to thank all those who have responded to these consultations, giving their ideas and opinions which have helped the council in shaping the Core Strategy. Planning often presents a difficult balance between national and regional policy and local need and aspirations. We trust that local residents, employees and employers will find that we are fulfilling our task of setting out a vision for the future of our borough with policies that reflect their own aspirations whilst delivering on national and regional requirements.

Introduction and Vision What is the Core Strategy? 1.01 Havant Borough Council is working with the local community and its partners to produce the Havant Borough Local Development Framework (HBLDF). The HBLDF will guide the future development of the borough up to 2026. This will affect everyone who lives, works or visits the borough. 1.02 The Havant Borough Core Strategy is one of the documents within the HBLDF. The HBLDF is made up of a collection of planning documents and the Core Strategy is the principal document setting out the broad detail and direction of development in the borough. 1.03 The Core Strategy will be followed by a Development Delivery (Allocations) Plan that will detail where development will occur. In addition, a number of supplementary planning documents will provide more information on how policy is to be applied in particular circumstances or on particular issues/sites. However, the Core Strategy itself, taken as a whole, is the over-arching document which sets the overall policy framework for all other local development documents. All other local development documents must be consistent with the Core Strategy. What the Core Strategy Seeks to Achieve 1.04 The Core Strategy describes the council’s long term vision and objectives for what the borough will be like as a place in 2026. It closely aligns with the Sustainable Community Strategy, Forward Together, produced by the Havant Local Strategic Partnership. 1.05 The Core Strategy sets out how the council believes the borough should develop. The Core Strategy identifies the strategic sites that are considered fundamental to achieving the overall vision and further details on these sites are provided in the document. The Core Strategy also identifies the required physical and social infrastructure (including green infrastructure) necessary to support new development and meet future needs. 1.06 The document contains strategic policies and some detailed development management policies against which individual planning applications will be assessed. When considering planning applications the council will consider all the policies contained in the Core Strategy that are relevant to the proposal. It is therefore essential that the Core Strategy is always read as a whole. 1.07 Where possible the Core Strategy has been designed to address risks and allow for flexibility in order to ensure the vision and objectives are met. Regular monitoring will be undertaken as part of the council’s Annual Monitoring Report and if appropriate, a review or partial review of the document will be undertaken to ensure it is responsive to any changes in circumstances. The Statutory Requirement of the Core Strategy 1.08 Government guidance identifies a number of principles that must be adhered to so that core strategies and other development plan documents can be considered legally compliant and sound. 1.09 Legal Compliance – the document must have been prepared in accordance with the Local Development Scheme; have regard to the Sustainable Community Strategy, Forward Together; be compliant with the Statement of Community Involvement; be subject to a sustainability appraisal; have regard to national policy and associated regulations relating to publication, advertisement and consultation. 1.10 Soundness – a Core Strategy must be justified, effective and have regard to national policy. 1 Havant Borough Core Strategy March 2011 1.11 To be ‘justified’ it must be founded on a robust and credible evidence base that has included participation of the local community and others that have a stake in the area and evidence that research is robust so that any choices in the plan are backed up by facts. It must also be evident that it is the most appropriate strategy when considered against reasonable alternatives. A continuous Sustainability Appraisal of the Core Strategy has been undertaken

This paper presents a new holistic methodology for the f!13Il-.-.; a:: it: identification of littoral cells. Testing is undertaken through application to an extensive region of central ... bJLt southern England. Diverse sources of information are compiled to map 8. detailed series of local sediment circulations both at the shoreline and in the offshore zone. Cells and sub-cells are subsequently defined by thorough examination of the continuity of sediment transport pathways and by identification of boundaries where there are discontinuities. Important distinctions are made between the nature and stability of different boundaries and a classification of types is devised. Application of sediment budget analysis to major process units helps to clarify the regional significance of different sediment sources, stores and sinks. Within the study area, it is shown that sediments circulate from distinct eroding cliff sources to well defined sinks. Natural beaches are transient and dependent upon the continued functioning of supply pathways from cliff sources. Relict cells with residual circulations are identified as a consequence of interference.

  • Community Infrastructure Levy
    WINCHESTER CITY COUNCIL COMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTURE LEVY INFRASTRUCTURE STATEMENT July 2013 Infrastructure Statement Introduction The Community Infrastructure Levy Regulations 2010 (as amended) require the City Council to submit “copies of the relevant evidence” to the examiner. The purpose of this statement is to set out the City Council’s evidence with regard to the demonstration of an infrastructure funding gap, confirmation of the Council’s spending priorities (the draft list), and clarification of its approach in respect of S106 contributions. The City Council is also seeking to comply with the Government’s Community Infrastructure Levy Guidance (April 2013) which sets out the more detailed requirements in respect of the funding gap at paragraphs 12 -14, and of the prioritisation and funding of infrastructure at paragraphs at 84 - 91. In respect of the latter, the principal aim of this statement is to provide transparency on what the Council, as a charging authority, intends to fund in whole or in part through the levy, and those known matters where S106 contributions may continue to be sought (CIL Guidance, paragraph 15). Infrastructure Funding Gap The Government’s CIL Guidance states: • “A charging authority needs to identify the total cost of infrastructure that it desires to fund in whole or in part from the levy” (paragraph 12); • “Information on the charging authority area’s infrastructure needs should be directly related to the infrastructure assessment that underpins their relevant plan.” (paragraph. 13); • “In determining the size of its total or aggregate infrastructure funding gap, the charging authority should consider known and expected infrastructure costs and the other sources of possible funding available to meet those costs.” (paragraph 14).
