Environmental Pollution and Decontamination
Background and Context Following three days of exceptionally heavy rain on already saturated ground, the River Ouse overtopped the flood defences and flooded substantial parts of Lewes. 613 residential and 207 business properties were flooded, along with 16 public buildings. 1000 people were displaced. 503 vehicles were damaged or destroyed and the total cost of the flooding was given as £88 million. How the Topic was Handled A Restoration Sub-Group was appointed, working to the Lewes Flood Recovery Co-ordinating Group . Its Terms of Reference were “ To co- ordinatethe clear-up of the affected areas, including the consideration of long- term health issues .” Represented on the sub-group were: • Lewes District Council (Environmental Health, Housing Maintenance, Building Control, Design & Conservation) • East Sussex County Council (Transport & Environment, Trading Standards) • East Sussex Brighton & Hove Health Authority (Public Health Consultant). This sub-group met five times, under the chairmanship of a senior Environmental Health Officer from Lewes DC, the last time being in May 2001. Key points arising were: • Provision of public health advice, particularly on how to handle cleaning up flooded homes and avoiding contamination. • Flooding of industrial areas released oil and other pollutants. As water receded, oil became concentrated in one watercourse. Environment Agency boomed (contained with bunding) some 70,000 litres of waste and heating oil and removed by tanker. • Flood stirred up dormant soil content from previous industrialisation. • Concern about children and pets playing in contaminated gardens. • Regional epidemiologist commenced survey into health effects in July 2001 using sample of 120 flood-affected households and ‘control’ population of non-flooded households.

FOUR BEDROOM DETACHED HOUSES WITH ASSOCIATE GARAGES JAMIE COPLAND POLICY: Ashdown Forest SPA/SAC / Built Up Areas / Classified Roads - 20m buffer / Aerodrome Safeguarding (CAA) / ODPM CODE: Minor Dwellings 8 WEEK DATE: 12th April 2021 WARD MEMBERS: Cllr Phillip Coote / Cllr Ian Gibson / Cllr Roger Webb / CASE OFFICER: Joseph Swift PURPOSE OF REPORT To consider the recommendation of the Divisional Leader, Planning and Economy on the application for planning permission as detailed above. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This application seeks planning permission for the demolition of the existing detached bungalow and erection of 3no. four bedroom detached houses with associated garages at Twoways, Station Road, Crawley Down which is designated within the Mid Sussex District Plan as being within the built up area boundaries. The application has been called in by Cllr Coote, Cllr Gibson and Cllr Webb on the grounds of overdevelopment and not in-keeping within the street scene. Planning legislation requires the application to be determined in accordance with the development plan unless material considerations indicate otherwise. It is therefore necessary for the planning application to be assessed against the policies in the development plan and then to take account of other material planning considerations including the NPPF. National planning policy states that planning should be genuinely plan led. The Council has a recently adopted District Plan and is able to demonstrate that it has a five year housing land supply.

The Department of Communities and Local Government (DCLG) issued a protocol for saving adopted Local Plan policies beyond the initial three-year saved period in August 2006. It sets out the criteria that Local Plan policies must meet if they are to have their life extended beyond September 2007. The Council must submit a list of all those Local Plan policies that it wishes to extend and those it does not wish to save, with reasons, to the Secretary of State, through the Government Office for the South East (GOSE), by 1st April 2007. The following two tables list all the Sevenoaks District Local Plan policies. The first table lists those saved Sevenoaks District Local Plan policies that the Council wishes to continue to use beyond September 2007, together with reasons.

Review Into the Best Value Delivery of the Environmental Health out of Hours Service for Sevenoaks District Council [And Dartford Borough Council]
REVIEW INTO THE BEST VALUE DELIVERY OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH OUT OF HOURS SERVICE FOR SEVENOAKS DISTRICT COUNCIL [AND DARTFORD BOROUGH COUNCIL] Cabinet - 19 April 2018 Report of the: Chief Officer Environmental & Operational Services Status: For recommendation to Cabinet Also considered by: Direct and Trading Advisory Committee - 13 March 2018 Key Decision: Yes Executive Summary: The shared service Environmental Health team currently provides an Out of Hours (OOH) Service to deal with complaints from residents within the Sevenoaks and Dartford districts. This service currently operates everyday throughout the year between 17:00 and 22:00 Monday to Thursday, 17:00 to 00:00 Friday, 08:00 to 00:00 Saturday and 08:00 to 22:00 Sunday. Demand for the service is shown to vary significantly throughout the year and by day of the week. Many of the calls received are not urgent and do not require immediate action. These can be managed the next working day during office hours in accordance with agreed performance indicators. In the past 18 months, experienced officers have left the OOH Service, and there is now a serious issue with fully staffing the Service in its existing format. This report recommends that the OOH service targets Environmental Health Officer resource at times of peak demand whilst simultaneously empowering the CCTV team to respond, record and provide advice to the majority of ‘one off’ complaints received by the service. The existing OOH provision for serious or emergency public health complaints will be extended via a year round cascade call system. This report supports the Key Aim of Safe Communities and Green Environment Portfolio Holder Cllr.

HON. PATRICK JENKIN MP SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT 1. At present the New Barn residential area is split between Dartford Borough, Sevenoaks District and Gravesham Borough; the part situated in Dartford is in the parish of ^outhfleet; the part in Sevenoaks is in the parish of Longfield, whilst the part in Gravesham is unparished. On 30 November 1979» Gravesham Borough Council requested ue to review the boundaries between the districts of Gravesham, Dartford and Sevenoaks in the vicinity of New Barn. Their request was in response to representations from the New Barn Ratepayers Association for the whole of the New Barn residential area to be incorporated within Gravesham Borough. The Association based their representations on a survey of opinion which they carried out in 1978 among the residents of New Barn on the question of whether the area should be under one authority, and if so, which one. The results indicated that a majority (8?#) of residents indicating a view preferred to see New Barn under one authority and a large proportion (6990 of these considered that this should be Gravesham. 2. We noted that Kent County Council, Dartford Borough Council, Sevenoaks District Council, and Longfield Parish Council were all opposed to a review beinp undertaken at that time, although Kent County Council and Dartford BOrough Council did a^ree that the current boundaries in the New Barn area were not wholly satisfactory.

Duty to Cooperate: Statement of Common Ground Cross-Boundary Working and Meeting Housing Needs
Duty to cooperate: Statement of common ground Cross-boundary working and meeting housing needs This agreement is between: Lewes District Council South Downs National Park Authority Adur District Council Arun District Council Brighton and Hove City Council Chichester District Council Crawley Borough Council Eastbourne Borough Council Hastings Borough Council Horsham District Council Mid Sussex District Council Rother District Council Wealden District Council Worthing Borough Council Map 1: Lewes district in context 1 1. Background 1.1 Section 110 of the Localism Act 2011 places a legal duty on local planning authorities and other prescribed bodies to cooperate with each other on strategic planning matters insofar as they are relevant to their administrative areas throughout the preparation of their development plan documents. The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) 2012 reiterates this duty and requires an independent inspector to assess whether the development plan they are examining has been prepared in accordance with the duty to cooperate. 1.2 It is expected that engagement and cooperation will be constructive, active and ongoing in order to maximise effectiveness throughout plan preparation as well as implementation, delivery and subsequent review. The national Planning Practice Guidance confirms that this is not a duty to agree but that local planning authorities should make every effort to secure the necessary cooperation on cross-boundary strategic matters before submitting development plan documents for examination. The examination will test whether the duty has been complied with. 2. Purpose 2.1 This statement of common ground sets out how Lewes District Council and South Downs National Park Authority have actively and positively sought to comply with the duty to cooperate in the preparation of the Joint Core Strategy development plan document on strategic planning matters, with the main cross-boundary factor affecting Lewes district being housing provision.
