I am directed by the Secretary of State to say that consideration has been given to the report of the Inspector, David M H Rose BA (Hons) MRTPI, who held an inquiry for 13 days between 4 November 2014 and 21 July 2015 into your client’s appeal against a refusal to grant outline planning permission by Aylesbury Vale District Council (‘the Council’) for up to 1,560 dwellings, together with a primary school, nursery, a mixed use local centre for retail, employment, healthcare and community uses, green infrastructure and new link road, in accordance with application reference 13/03534/AOP, dated 17 December 2013. 2. On 6 June 2014 the appeal was recovered for the Secretary of State's determination, in pursuance of section 78 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, because the appeal involves proposals for residential development of over 150 units or on sites of over 5 hectares, which would significantly impact on the Government’s objective to secure a better balance between housing demand and supply and create high quality, sustainable, mixed and inclusive communities. Inspector’s recommendation and summary of the decision 3. The Inspector recommends that the appeal be dismissed. For the reasons given below, the Secretary of State agrees with the Inspector’s conclusions and recommendation, dismisses the appeal and refuses planning permission.

    AVDC local lettings policy Scheme details Development/Estate name Any general need housing to which AVDC has nomination rights (excluding Rural Exception Schemes). RSL Any Local Lettings Policy – 15 May 2014 Commencement Date End Date To be reviewed in May 2015 Total number of properties in N/a estate/development Number of properties subject to proposed 50% of new build properties Local Lettings Policy 25% of re let properties Property type and number of beds and Nos. of Supported Rented Intermediate persons units Housing General need, re-let properties 25% of N/a Y N total General need, new build properties 50% of N/a Y N total Justification for local lettings policy Choice based lettings means that qualifying applicants are able to choose to express interest in any properties which become available and are the appropriate size and match their needs. Applicants who express interest in properties are then prioritised by their level of housing need (Bands A- D) and then how long they have been on the Housing Register. No consideration has previously been given to where in the District the applicant is from or where the property is located. Following previous direction from Members at Environment and Living Scrutiny Committee officers developed a scheme which was subsequently approved at cabinet and council. This scheme divides Aylesbury Vale into four ‘sub groups’ and allows some extra preference to be given to applicants with a connection to their local community. For the purposes of this local lettings policy, Aylesbury Vale is split into four groups, (Greater Aylesbury, North, South West and South East) which are broadly consistent with current LAF (local area forum) areas.

  • Aylesbury Historic Town Assessment Draft Report 79
    Aylesbury Historic Town Assessment Draft Report Figure 44: Morphology of Aylesbury 79 Aylesbury Historic Town Assessment Draft Report Figure 45: period development 80 Aylesbury Historic Town Assessment Draft Report 5 Historic Urban Zones 5.1 Introduction The process of characterising and analysing Buckinghamshire towns produces a large quantity of information at a ‘fine-grained scale’ e.g. the character of particular buildings, town plan forms and location of archaeological data. This multitude of information can be hard to assimilate. In order to distil this information into an understandable form, the project defines larger areas or Historic Urban Zones (HUZs) for each town; these zones provide a framework for summarising information spatially and in written form ( 81 Aylesbury Historic Town Assessment Draft Report Figure 47). Each zone contains several sections including: A summary of the zone including reasons for the demarcation of the zone. An assessment of the known and potential archaeological interest for pre 20th century areas only. An assessment of existing built character. 5.2 Historic Urban Zones The creation of these zones begins with several discrete data sets including historical cartography and documentary sources; known archaeological work; buildings evidence (whether listed or not) and the modern urban character (Figure 46). From this, a picture can be drawn of the changes that have occurred to the built character within a given area over a given period. Discrete areas of the town that then show broad similarities can be grouped as one zone. After the survey results have been mapped into GIS the resulting data is analysed to discern any larger, distinctive patterns; principally build periods, urban types, styles or other distinctive attributes of buildings.

  • Aylesbury Community Board- 17Th November 2020
    Aylesbury Community Board- 17th November 2020 Agenda Item 6: Community Matters 3 questions were received ahead of the Community Board meeting- the questions & responses can be found below: 1. Question, submitted by Aylesbury Resident: ‘In Aylesbury we have seen a huge increase in serious crime committed by the youth and drastic decrease in youth services (apprenticeship, youth enterprise and youth clubs). These two factors are high correlated, what roadmap does the council to deal with these issues?’ Response provided by Buckinghamshire Family Support Service Team: In Bucks we are fortunate that we have managed to hold on to our Youth Service where many Local Authorities across the country haven’t been so lucky. Despite the decrease in the size of the service we are still able to provide a host of support to young people across the county. We have recently reviewed our Youth Work Offer for Bucks which includes; • One-One Support- A series of weekly one to one sessions with a young person that are targeted to address specific, identified needs. The length of the intervention is dependent on the support required. An average intervention would be 8 sessions, but this can be extended dependent on engagement and level of need. Young people can be referred to the service for this support. • Targeted Group Work- We now have Family Centres across Bucks, of which 3 are in Aylesbury; Berryfields, Southcourt and Elmhurst. Small group work programmes are provided of six to eight weeks for young people around specific topics/needs.
