Chapter 1: Setting the Scene

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason MM1 1.1.4 The Council will keep the Local Plan up to date. Any reviews will be set out in the Local Development Scheme (LDS). The current LDS can be viewed on the Council’s website. Following the tragic fire at Grenfell Tower on 14 June 2017, the Council decided to end the three new estate regeneration projects which were being worked on in the borough at Silchester, Barlby-Treverton and Warwick Road estates. It was also pledged by the Leader that any estate regeneration projects on the affected estates would be co-designed in conjunction with the residents living within the relevant estate and put to a binding vote with projects only going ahead with the majority of residents in support. Following these commitments, the Council commits to an early review of the Local Plan, at least in part, to consider issues related to North Kensington, the Latimer ‘Place’, estate regeneration and

housing supply, to be adopted within three years of this Local Plan’s adoption. In the meantime, all policies in the development plan (the London Plan, the Local Plan and any relevant neighbourhood plans) will continue to apply.

ADD/02 1.1.7 The Local Plan is closely related to the Community Strategy, Section 100(2)(b) of the Deregulation Act 2015 which was prepared by the Kensington and Chelsea removes the requirement for a Council to have regard to its Partnership. The Community Strategy sets out the strategic Sustainable Community Strategy. vision for the borough to 2018 and is linked into overarching regional strategies. It provides the vehicle for considering and The new Council Plan was published in March 2019. The deciding how to address cross-cutting issues such as the Council has consulted widely with residents across the economic future of an area and social exclusion. The Council borough on their priorities and these have been used to has also published documents called ‘The Royal Borough develop the new Council Plan. 2028’, which sets out a vision to 2028, and ‘Ambitious for Tomorrow’ which sets out a vision for the borough from 2014 to 2018. The Local Plan takes into account these documents and explores what the implications are for the way the borough will develop.

ADD/03 1.2.8 In preparing the Local Plan we have ensured that the key Section 100(2)(b) of the Deregulation Act 2015 spatial planning objectives for the borough as set out in the remove the requirement for a Council to have Local Plan are in harmony with the Council’s other regard to its Sustainable Community Strategy. The new Community Strategy priorities. Council Plan will be published at the end of March 2019.

ADD/04 1.2.9 The Grenfell Recovery Strategy The Grenfell Recovery Strategy was published – and the The Council published the Grenfell Recovery Strategy in spatial implications meet our existing ambitions – so we January 2019. It sets out how the Council intends to deliver would wish for this to be included in the Local Plan. its formal Commitments to those affected by the Grenfell tragedy. The land use ambitions of the Strategy include the provision of additional affordable homes, the provision/ protection of the social and community facilities needed by the residents in the area, and the provisions of the workspaces which have the potential to meet the employment needs of our residents.

ADD/05 1.2.9 The Community Strategy is structured around eight themes; Section 100(2)(b) of the Deregulation Act 2015 removes the ‘Environment and Transport’, ‘Culture, Arts and Leisure’, requirement for a Council to have regard to its Sustainable

‘Safer Communities’, ‘Health and Social Care’, ‘Homes and Community Strategy (SCS). The Council wishes for its new Housing’, ‘Community, Equality and Inclusivity’, ‘Achieving Council Plan to take the place of the former SCS. Potential’ and ‘Work and Business’. Under each theme, the Community Strategy sets the overall goal, a description of the position in the Royal Borough relevant to the theme and a set of specific aims and objectives. Each section also draws out the strategic policies (as of December 2008) which support the delivery of a particular aim. The Community Strategy notes that the Local Plan has continued to develop, and that, therefore, the relationship between the two documents will be updated in future versions.

ADD/06 1.2.10 The principal Community Strategy policies which are relevant Section 100(2)(b) of the Deregulation Act 2015 removes the to physical change in the borough include: protecting and requirement for a Council to have regard to its Sustainable enhancing the borough’s residential and historic character, Community Strategy. services and amenities, parks and open spaces; continuously seeking to improve the borough’s streetscape; maintaining the borough’s built environment and heritage and ensuring that new buildings enhance the townscape. However, there are many other aims that are also relevant including: the creation of safer communities, improving quality and access to local healthcare, promote energy efficiency and tackle the causes of climate change and the provision of quality housing across all tenures.

There are many factors that contribute to its success, but two are of particular importance, both of which derive from its location close to, but not in, central London.

This built form is, by the standards of much of the twentieth century, both high density, and very high quality.

But the borough also supports world class town centres, museums, and hospitals and cultural events such as the Notting Hill Carnival that give the borough its international and national reputation. These attract large numbers of visitors from well beyond the borough boundary, reflecting the location close to, but not in, central London. The borough is anything but a ‘residential suburb’. This mixture of uses adds so much to the quality of residents’ lives.

ADD/11 2.2.7 However, when looked at spatially, it can be seen that Text modified to reflect current conditions. household income varies considerably., with many residents in the north and south west of the borough having income levels below £20,000 per annum, and, as might be expected, much higher levels of benefit claims. Unemployment in the Royal Borough is 2.1 per cent, which is comparable with the national average (2.2 per cent) and under the Inner London average of 2.8 per cent10. This does, however, hide spatial

variations, with wards such as Golborne, Notting Barnes or St Charles having much higher levels of unemployment.

ADD/12 2.2.9 Deprivation Text deleted to reflect current conditions. The Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) combines a number of factors such as income, employment, health and disability, education, housing, living environment and crime. The scores are ranked to compare the levels of deprivation nationally. The IMD 2015 is the official measure of relative deprivation for small ‘Lower Super Output Areas’ (LSOAs) in England.

The latest Local Authority Housing Statistics (LAHS) dataset (2013-2014) indicates that within the local authority stock managed by the Tenant Management Organisation (TMO), there were 1,159 ‘non- decent’ homes, 1,343 homes not in a reasonable state of repair, and 68 homes with Category 1 (severe) hazards under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System33. Some of our estates date from the 1960s and 70s and exhibit all the faults of that far from golden era of public architecture. A few of them are coming to the end of their lives34. Ninety nine per cent of the Council’s stock met Decent Homes Standards in 200935.

Kensington can claim a preeminent position in the hierarchy of the Victorian metropolis, not only as the home to Queen Victoria in her early days, but also because of the lasting legacy of houses, churches, museums and other public buildings which arose during her reign. As a consequence Kensington and Chelsea grew throughout the nineteenth century to provide homes for the newly wealthy middle and upper classes.

The borough has a legacy of Georgian and Victorian terraces laid out in a network of streets, often including garden squares. There are over 4,000 listed buildings and over 73 per cent of the borough is within a conservation area, including some of metropolitan importance such as the Thames, Royal Hospital and South Kensington Museums conservation areas.

The Edwardian period saw a shift away from town houses to the mansion block, allowing buildings to be slightly taller and thus, as we see today, higher density. The same principles of street-based architecture with the town house endured with the mansion block. The two principal building types are combined in a rich mix where neither one nor the other predominates over very large areas.

The residual waste is the waste remaining after materials for re-use, recycling and composting have been removed.

ADD/21 2.3.1 The most obvious conclusion that can be drawn from Text amended to reflect current position. (change examining the characteristics that have been outlined is that headings) The borough has the potential to be hugely successful. It has a high quality built environment, a number of places that are international or national destinations and in many parts a highly educated population with high income levels. To an extent, the issues and challenges are the result of the borough being the victim of its own success. This is not, however, the entire story. Much of the borough suffers from poor air quality, from traffic congestion and has property prices out of reach of many of those who might have expected to live within it. There are also some areas 8where residents suffer from real deprivation. There is no risk that the Council is complacent. It is not a matter of simply maintaining excellence, but seeking continual improvement and building on success to ensure that the entire borough thrives.

ADD/22 2.3.2 It should also be noted that the borough is predominantly Text amended to reflect current position. residential. It has important town centres, but none of the ‘core’ commercial activities associated with mainline stations or the centre of London. Behind the roads with heavy traffic travelling in and out of central London, much of the borough is tranquil, with high levels of residential amenity and quality of life. Many people would say that Kensington and Chelsea are the best places in which to live in London.

Protecting other land uses on a finely grained basis is thus a vital issue to be addressed by the strategy.

ADD/25 2.3.18 It can be seen that the key characteristics and broad spatial Text has been reworded to show those key characteristics patterns present five components that must drive the which drive the direction of the local plan. direction of the Local Plan:  A fully integrated approach to development in consultation with the community must be taken if all communities are to be able fulfil their potential.  The Local Plan can play a positive contribution in addressing the ambitions of the community. This includes meeting their housing needs, providing the community facilities needed, and the premises required for the businesses which can employ local people.  That the borough is, by and large, successful in many aspects, but we must not be complacent, and must continue to build on that success across the borough.  That North Kensington has a unique set of issues that require an integrated approach to its regeneration.  That there are many places within the borough that have national and international reputations relating to culture and retail, which need to be enhanced. Spatially, the main destinations tend to cluster in the south and east of the borough.  That the borough is largely residential, and a place where there is a high demand for all types and tenures of housing. A demand that needs to be addressed.

 Arguably, the borough is the best place to live in London, and maintaining that ‘market position’ is important. Central to that market position is a high quality of life.

ADD/26 2.3.19 In addition, five strategic issues have been identified which Text has been re-ordered. need to be addressed as part of the vision and strategic objectives if the four components above are to be successfully tackled:  Providing for new residential development in a way which diversifies tenure patterns and house sizes, reflecting the needs of existing and future residents.

 Protecting local uses and those that are important to the vitality of the borough from potential loss to the higher values commanded by residential land uses. The Council will also seek to assist in the provision of additional premises to try to meet objectively assessed need.  Improving travel choices to reduce car dependency, including getting better access onto the existing rail infrastructure.  Protecting the high quality historic environment and ensuring new developments are of equivalent quality, so that we pass on a legacy to future generations, including quality within the public realm.  Providing for new residential development in a way which diversifies tenure patterns and house sizes reflecting the needs of existing and future residents.  Reducing the environmental impacts of everyday activities in the borough to better fit within environmental limits.

The exceptional visual quality of our built environment is matched by the finely grained mix of uses, underpinning our success as a highly desirable place in which to live, work and invest. Over 4,000 buildings are listed and there are over 100 garden squares. Conservation areas cover more than 70 per cent of the borough. The Royal Borough is known for its legacy of Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian architecture but there are also a number of twentieth century buildings which continue the legacy of high quality design. Our listed buildings and conservation areas contribute immensely to local distinctiveness both within the borough and to London as a whole. The Council will seek to ensure that any regeneration projects new developments are undertaken to design standards that could allow them to be designated as Conservation Areas in the future.

MM7 4.2.6 In terms of business uses, there is a forecast demand of 45,000 46,240 sq m of additional office floorspace between 20116 and the end of the plan period in 2028[1]. When including the B1(a) floorspace which has been lost since 20116 and the net loss of B1 floorspace currently in the development pipeline this translates to a net demand of 47,100 sq m. an undersupply of 86,600. Whilst the Council has identified some 2,000 sq m of

additional B1 office space as being likely to come forward outside of the recognised pipeline, this still leaves an under supply of approximately 84,600 sqm, or some 6,3500 sq m pa from 2016 to the end of the plan period. The development pipeline would suggest that this demand is likely to be accommodated over the plan period, with much of this The Council recognises that some further B class floorspace is likely to come forward be forthcoming through the intensification of business uses on existing sites. However, given the differential in value between office and residential land such windfalls are likely to be relatively modest. Those windfalls which do come forward are likely to be located within the borough’s three The borough’s Employment Zones are likely to have an important role in this regard.

MM13 4.4.0 Following the tragic fire at Grenfell Tower on 14 June 2017, the New Council decided to end the three new estate regeneration paragraph projects which were being worked on in the borough at Silchester, Barlby-Treverton and Warwick Road estates. It was also pledged by the Leader that any estate regeneration projects on the affected estates would be co-designed in conjunction with the residents living within the relevant estate and put to a binding vote with projects only going ahead with the majority of residents in support. Following these commitments, the Council commits to an early review of the Local Plan, at least in part, to consider issues related to North Kensington, the Latimer ‘Place’, estate regeneration and housing supply, to be adopted within three years of this Local Plan’s adoption. In the meantime, all policies in the development plan (the London Plan, the Local Plan and any relevant neighbourhood plans) will continue to apply.

MM14 4.4.1 The key diagram in Chapter 3.1 shows the areas where there are unique combinations of opportunities which provide real potential for change. These areas of change are: redevelopment of Lots Road power station; stimulating creation of a new community in Earl’s Court and redevelopment of sites in Warwick Road; development of Kensal Canalside Opportunity Area; and regeneration of housing estates and employment zones in North Kensington. Work has already

commenced on redevelopment of the Earl’s Court Exhibition Centre site and most of the sites in Warwick Road. Many of these sites are close to where wider transformation is taking place across the borough border in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham with the regeneration of South Fulham Riverside, Earl’s Court and White City. There is also significant regeneration envisaged in Old Oak and Park Royal managed by the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) to create a new community in west London.

MM15 4.4.2 The estate regeneration opportunities are often the social housing estates of the post-war period, which themselves replaced Victorian terraced housing that was no longer believed to be fit for purpose. These estates were typical of their period. They used new and experimental materials, building techniques or built forms (e.g. deck access) -some of which have since not lived up to expectations or, in the case of linking walkways, have occasionally been discredited.

MM16 4.4.3 The Council’s vision for estates regeneration new development is that it must learn from the past. Replacement New housing and public space should be developed to a high standard of design that can be appreciated today, but which ages gracefully and in time is widely recognised for its quality, or perhaps even celebrated.

MM17 4.4.4 Where appropriate new developments will reflect traditional street patterns will be reinstated or a traditional and urban form introduced to improve provide safety and legibility. Public spaces will be designed to be attractive, functional places accessible for all, usable for a variety of public purposes, and not simply left-over space around buildings. Housing densities will be appropriate for this part of London and local public transport provision. The London Plan policy on housing density will be used to optimise site density. Housing numbers will often increase, providing more homes on site. This would not normally mean more tower blocks, as our traditional townscape shows flatted terraced housing and mansion blocks can often meet the demand in a more appealing way. High quality materials reflecting the local context and well-designed detailing will enrich the appearance and add character and charm. Our regenerated housing estates New developments will become places to live as valued as their Georgian and Victorian predecessors, and their architectural and urban design qualities perhaps becoming equally as cherished as our “Conservation Areas of the Future”.

MINOR/012 4.4.5 The Council will expect similar these standards to be applied to Consequential from changes to 4.4.4 Kensal Canalside and large sites redeveloped by private landowners and housing associations.

MM18 4.4.6 Estate regeneration is already underway at Wornington Green and proposals for the land adjacent to Trellick Tower are being developed. The case for regenerating Barlby School and the Treverton Estate, the Warwick Road Estate and the Silchester Estates is being investigated.

MM19 4.4.7 The Council as landowner has at this stage not yet determined what level of development (if any) is appropriate on any of the potential estate renewal regeneration sites. But, in land-use planning terms, it is appropriate for the development plan system to identify land which is developable to meet the borough’s housing need consistent with the principles of the

NPPF (paragraph 47). The Council owns other housing estates across the borough, which have not been allocated in this plan, where options for renewal regeneration may be investigated in future.

MM20 4.4.8 The allocation of a site within the Development Plan would assist in identifying and securing a flexible range of developable options. But any allocation will not determine the regeneration route to be chosen by the Council and landowner.

MM21 4.4.9 In the event that land assembly is required to allow estate renewal regeneration to proceed, the Council will make every effort to make acquisitions through negotiation. Compulsory purchase may however be necessary to secure the land use planning benefits associated with any particular estate renewal regeneration scheme.

MM29 5.7.3 There is only one road access to the site north of the railway line and the junction with Ladbroke Grove is now at close to

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason capacity. This severely constrains the traffic generating development that can be accommodated on the site without significant transport improvements or reductions in existing traffic generating uses on the site. Optimal development of the site can only be achieved with a new road bridge over the railway line, improving access, and a new Elizabeth Line station, reducing the need for private car ownership. Building the new road bridge requires release of at least part of the North Pole railway depot to the south, which is currently designated for railway use. The north site should make provision for the future road bridge, however, associated land should be released for development should it be deemed unnecessary by the Local Planning Authority following further technical assessment. A new station on the Elizabeth Line would improve rail access, network accessibility and help to reduce the need for private car ownership. The Council will ensure that any development adjacent to the KCOA will not prejudice the deliverability of necessary transportation infrastructure, with particular regard to the improvement of access from the opportunity area onto Ladbroke Grove. If a new station on the Elizabeth Line is not agreed, the capacity and masterplan for Kensal Canalside Opportunity Area will need to be reviewed. Any change to the housing capacity and infrastructure provision of the site would need to be brought forward through the early review of the Local Plan.

The Westway flyover and West Cross Route, built in the 1960s, passes through the area. Latimer is also home to businesses uses located primarily in the Latimer Road Employment Zone. Following the tragic fire at Grenfell Tower on 14 June 2017, the Council decided to end the three new estate regeneration projects which were being worked on in the borough at Silchester, Barlby-Treverton and Warwick Road estates. It

was also pledged by the Leader that any estate regeneration projects on the affected estates would be co- designed in conjunction with the residents living within the relevant estate and put to a binding vote with projects only going ahead with the majority of residents in support. As a result the whole place vision for the Latimer area has also been withdrawn from the Plan, to enable it to be reviewed in the light of any new proposals for the Silchester estate. The Council commits to an early review of the Local Plan, at least in part, to consider issues related to North Kensington, the Latimer ‘Place’, estate renewal and housing supply, to be adopted within three years of this Local Plan’s adoption. In the meantime, all policies in the development plan (the London Plan, the Local Plan and any relevant neighbourhood plans) will continue to apply to any applications which might be submitted for development in the Latimer area.

Below this are the criteria of how the policy can be complied with, but the list is not exhaustive and addressing all the criteria may not necessarily indicate that a proposal is in conformity with the strategic policy. These criteria represent the non-strategic policies. To meet the basic condition of being in ‘general conformity’ with the strategic policies of the Local Plan, Neighbourhood Plans should assume this approach. Any policies in a neighbourhood plan, where one exists, should be in ‘general conformity’ with the strategic element of each policy set out in the Local Plan and once made the policies in the neighbourhood plan will take precedence over the non- strategic policies of this Local Plan. More information can be found in National Planning Practice Guidance on Neighbourhood Planning.

MM65 Fostering The Council recognises that smaller scale parades of Vitality shops or isolated shops also have a role in serving the 31.3.8 needs of residents across the borough. Out of centre units with a gross floor area of less than 400sq.m are likely to have a convenience function are of a scale which often

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason equate to a ‘local’ format small supermarket. These are of a size which is usually to be considered a ‘small shop’ with regard to the restrictions for Sunday Trading (280sq.m (net). Such units are unlikely to have a detrimental impact on the health of adjoining centres. Given the nature of the borough’s retail sector and the tightly knit network of centres across it, the Council is concerned that out of centre proposals that include a net increase of more than 400 sq m (gross external) retail floorspace may have the potential to cause harm. A retail impact assessment will allow the Council to assess each such proposal on its merits. The nature of the assessment should be proportionate to the scale of the development proposed.

MM66 31.3.24 The Glossary to the National Planning Policy Practice Guidance Framework (NPPFG) on Ensuring the Vitality of Town Centres lists the main town centre uses. These include shops as well as banks, building societies and other professional services, leisure and entertainment facilities, the more intensive sport and recreation uses (including cinemas, restaurants, bars and pubs, night-clubs,

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason casinos, health and fitness centres); offices; and arts, culture and tourism development (including theatres, museums, galleries and concert halls, hotels and conference facilities). The NPPFG also notes that housing may be an appropriate town centre use when on upper floors. Social and community uses, are also considered to be appropriate town centre uses.

MINOR/044 31.3.26 The Council recognises that these differing roles are served For clarity. by different parts of the borough’s larger centres. It is the primary retail frontages which provide the critical mass of shops, and the secondary retail frontages, while still being mostly shops, contain a greater diversity of town centre uses serving non-shopping needs of visitors those visiting the centre. Taken together, the primary and secondary retail frontages provide the range of town centre uses necessary to make the borough’s centres the diverse and successful places that they are. This is an approach supported by the provisions of the NPPF and not diminished by the recent liberalisation of the relevant statutory instruments. The Council will continue to have regard to the mix of uses within particular parts of a centre whenever planning permission is required.

MINOR/045 31.3.28 The Council recognises that restaurants and drinking This part of the Local Plan is concerned about the function establishments continue to have an important role in of the borough’s town centres, not “areas”. supporting the diversity of the borough’s town centres and in providing a useful day-to-day service to our residents. Care must be taken to ensure that an over concentration of such uses does not harm the function of an area centre. In addition the Council recognises that such uses can be unneighbourly and cause particular problems to the quiet enjoyment of our residential areas. The impact of such uses on residential amenity are considered elsewhere in the Local Plan.

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason MM67 31.3.30 There have been particular problems associated with the concentration of estate agents (a Class A2 use) in Notting Hill Gate. - a concentration that has harmed the retail character of parts of the centre. In 2015 the GPDO was amended and removed the need for planning permission for changes of uses from shops to estate agents and other Class A2 uses. The Council will monitor the effects of the GPDO on the vitality and viability of the town centres and where appropriate will consider using Article 4 directions to ensure that the health of town centres is maintained. This liberalisation could allow the retail character of both Notting Hill Gate and of other areas to be weakened still further. Unchecked a proliferation of estate agents will detract from the retail function of the centre. Whilst ordinarily planning permission is no longer required for a change of use from a shop to an estate agent, the Council will continue to seek to resist such changes of use which will harm the character of an area, when it has the powers to do so.

MM68 Policy CF3 The Council will secure the success and vitality of our town centres by protecting, enhancing and promoting a diverse range of shops and by ensuring that these uses will be supported, but not dominated by, a range of complimentary town centre uses. To deliver this the Council will:

a. protect all shops and shop floorspace at ground floor level in primary retail frontages of: i. Knightsbridge, King’s Road (East and West), Fulham Road, Brompton Cross, South Kensington, Kensington High Street, Earl’s Court Road and Westbourne Grove town centres unless the change is to another town centre use and where 80 per cent of the ground-floor units in the relevant street frontage will remain in an A1 (shop) use and the non-shop use is not adjacent to another non-A1 use;

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason ii. Notting Hill Gate unless the change is to another town centre use, but not an estate agents, bureaux de change (Class A2) or a hot food takeaway (Class A5) use and where 80 per cent of the ground-floor units in the relevant street frontage will remain in an A1 (shop) use and the non-shop use is not adjacent to another non-A1 use; iii. Portobello Road Special District Centre; b. protect all shops and shopping floorspace at ground floor level within the secondary retail frontages of: i. Knightsbridge, King’s Road (East and West), Fulham Road, Brompton Cross, South Kensington and Kensington High Street, Earl’s Court Road and Portobello Road town centres, unless the change is to a town centre use and where 50 per cent of the ground-floor units in the relevant street frontage will remain in an A1 (shop) use and there are no more than 3 non-A1 uses in a row; ii. Notting Hill Gate District Centre unless the change is to another town centre use, but not an estate agents, bureaux de change (Class A2) or a hot food takeaway (Class A5) and the change is to a town centre use and where 50 per cent of the ground-floor units in the relevant street frontage will remain in an A1 (shop) use and there are no more than 3 non-A1 uses in a row; c. protect shop uses above or below ground floor level within town centres unless it is successfully demonstrated that their loss will not adversely affect the essential shopping character and function of the centre; d. protect all shops within neighbourhood centres, unless the proposal is to change to a social and

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason community use, and where 66 per cent of the relevant frontage remains in A1 use (shop).

MM69 31.3.38 There is a forecast demand of 46,240 45,000 sq. m. of additional office floorspace between 20116 and the end of the plan period in 20282. When including the B1(a) floorspace which has been lost since 20116 and the net loss of B1 floorspace currently in the development pipeline this translates to a net demand of 47,100 sq m undersupply of 86,600 93,100 sq m. Whilst the Council has identified some 52,000 sq m of additional B1 office space likely to come forward outside of the recognised pipeline, this still leaves an under supply of approximately 84,600 88,000 sqm, or some 6,5300 sq m pa from 2014 6 to the end of the plan period.

[2] London Office Policy Review, (2017) Floorspace Projections, GLA Peter Brett Associates, July 2014.

MM70 31.3.39 The Council recognises that the development pipeline would suggest that this demand is likely to be accommodated over the plan period, with that some further B class floorspace is likely to be forthcoming through the intensification of business uses on existing sites. However, given the differential in value between office and residential land such windfalls are likely to be relatively modest. Any loss of the existing business stock will hinder the Council’s ability to meet this need. widen the under supply still further.

MINOR/046 31.3.41 As a “town centre use”, offices are subject to the Correct error. requirements of the NPPF G on Ensuring the Vitality of Town Centres.

MM71 31.3.48 The borough contains a small number of storage and distribution uses. Whilst these are not of a scale that serve

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason a strategic function they do provide a particular service which is used by both residents and by the small businesses scattered across the borough. As with industrial premises, this dwindling sector is under pressure from changes of use to higher value uses. Whilst loss to office uses may see a change of function it will ensure that the important business function is retained. This will not be the case if the loss of storage and distribution uses is to a residential use. Such a change of use will have a detrimental impact on the borough’s economy and upon employment opportunities with it.

31.2.48b Where an applicant can demonstrate that there are no strong economic reasons to retain a warehouse use, the loss to a non-business use may be appropriate. However, the Council will have regard to the length of time that the warehouse has been in operation and must be satisfied that the warehouse use is established. Where this is not the case, the Council will have regard to the contribution that the previous use had in meeting the ambitions of the Local Plan.

MINOR/047 31.3.50 The Council does not wish to constrain the evolution of Correct error. such uses and supports flexibility within the B class uses in these areas and across the borough.

MM72 31.3.53 The Council does, however, recognise that the introduction of some residential floorspace within an Employment Zone can help bring forward new business development and deliver housing supply. In order to ensure that business uses are maximised, residential uses will only be permitted when they can be shown to be necessary to enable a significant uplift in business floorspace. As well as being a significant uplift, this floorspace must be of at least equal quality to that being re-provided with no more residential

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason floorspace being provided that that necessary to enable the uplift. It is also essential that the commercial character and function of an Employment Zone is not jeopardised by the introduction / expansion of residential uses.

MM82 35.3.2 The London Plan 2016 (as amended) sets out a housing target of 733 dwellings per annum that the borough should seek to meet and exceed. The target is supply capacity based and exceeds the annual OAN by about 27%. The target is for ten years between 2015 and 2025 and has been rolled forward to 145 years (1 April 2015 – 31 March 2029) resulting giving a target of 10,262 dwellings to the end of the plan period. The target is derived from monitoring evidence and the London Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA) 2013 which was developed in

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason partnership with London Boroughs. The Mayor of London has committed to revise the target by 2019/20. The new London SHLAA 2017 indicates that the capacity in Kensington and Chelsea has reduced significantly to approximately 488 dpa. This work will inform a new target for the borough to be determined through the London Plan Review.

MM83 35.3.3 In accordance with the NPPF, the Council must ensure that the Local Plan meets the full OAN for market and affordable housing. It must also demonstrate a 5 year supply of specific deliverable sites sufficient to meet the borough’s housing target plus an additional 205% buffer (moved forward from later in the plan period) for the first 5 years due to a record of persistent under delivery to ensure choice and competition in the market for land. The additional buffer is to provide a realistic prospect of achieving the planned supply and to ensure choice and competition in the market for land. The Council’s net residential completions over the last 5 years (2011/12 to 2015/16) have averaged around 350 units per annum whilst net residential approvals over the same period have averaged around 790 units per annum. There is no clear guidance on how many years of residential completions need to be monitored before the conclusion can be drawn that there is a persistent under delivery. Nevertheless the Council has included a 20% buffer over the housing target for the first 5 years which results in an annual target of 880 units per annum for the first five years.

Over the first two years of the plan period from 2015-2017, the borough has a backlog of 935 dwellings against its current target. Where there is a record of persistent or significant under delivery, the NPPF expects that local planning authorities should add a buffer of 20% to the 5 year housing supply. The purpose of a 20% buffer is to improve the prospect of achieving the planned supply by bringing sites forward from later in the plan period. However, in

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason Kensington and Chelsea, there is no additional supply that could realistically be brought forward from later in the plan period. The allocated supply in years 6-12 of the trajectory relies on the 2 strategic brownfield sites at Kensal Canalside and Earl’s Court, which have required significant infrastructure and enabling works before they can start to deliver housing. The remainder of the supply will largely come from annual windfall allowances for small sites and vacant units coming back into use. No part of this supply could be brought forward to boost delivery in the first 5 years of the plan period. There is little evidence of other large windfall sites which could help to boost the supply in the first 5 years of the plan period.

Given the constraints on the borough’s housing supply and without a supply of sites that could be brought forward, even if it were considered by a decision maker that the Council had a persistent record of under delivery or significant under delivery measured against the Housing Delivery Test, the application of a 20% buffer will do little to improve the prospects of achieving the housing requirement. Rather it would potentially undermine the policies elsewhere in the Plan for the protection of commercial, cultural and community uses in the borough.

For these reasons, a 5% buffer should be applied in Kensington and Chelsea in calculating the 5 year housing land supply for the purposes of the Local Plan Partial Review. For the same reasons, dealing with the backlog in the first 5 years of the plan period after adoption would also not be deliverable. Spreading the backlog over the plan period (the ‘Liverpool’ approach) would better reflect the trajectory for the delivery of sites in the housing land supply set out in chapter 40.

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason Therefore, adding the undersupply of 935 dwellings spread over the plan period together with a 5% buffer results in a five year housing requirement of 4,258 dwellings from 2017-2022.

MM84 35.3.4 The Housing Trajectory at 1 April 2017 shows a total development pipeline of 11,694 8,979 net additional units for the 125 year period 20167/178 to 2028/2930/31. Further information on the housing trajectory and delivery from site allocations is provided in Chapter 40. The housing trajectory is based on a combination of the capacity from site allocations, the development pipeline of planning permissions, those sites where pre-application responses have identified a potential for housing development, assumptions on windfall from small sites and vacant buildings returning to use. It is estimated that about 4,400 4,410 of these units will be delivered within the first five year period from 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2022 enabling the borough to demonstrate a five year housing land supply including an additional 205% buffer (moved forward from later in the plan period) to ensure choice and competition in the market for land as required by the NPPF. The Local Plan also identifies a supply of specific, developable sites or broad locations for growth for years 6-15.

MM85 35.3.5 The Local Plan also identifies a supply of specific, developable sites or broad locations for growth for years 6-12 of the plan period. Over the next 15 years, the The site allocations in the Local Plan are expected to deliver about 8,1000 2,958 units in this period with the largest site Kensal Canalside (3,500 units) likely to deliver 2,488 units in this period. Given the extremely dense built up character of the borough and limited number of large sites, in common with other inner-London boroughs, the Council also relies on a supply of housing from small windfall sites which is taken from the small sites estimate provided in the London SHLAA. These have, historically, provided an important supply of

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason housing for the borough. However, overall the housing supply identified in the trajectory in chapter 40 is insufficient to meet the housing requirement for years 6-12 of the plan period. A total supply of 4,569 is demonstrated against a requirement of 5,474 dwellings for the period 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2029. The Council intends to address this current shortfall through an early review of the Plan against the revised London Plan housing target.

MM86 35.3.13 However, the provision of these larger units has an impact on the ability of the borough to meet its housing supply targets as the sites for these developments are often capable of accommodating a much larger number of smaller units. Given the increase in the borough’s housing supply target to 733 units per annum in the 2015 London Plan, the borough is under increasing pressure to ensure that the delivery of new housing is optimised on all sites. The number of residential units delivered on a site can be optimised by taking into account the relevant range within the London Plan policy on housing density Density Matrix. In addition the provision of new very large units to meet the requirements of prime and super prime buyers is unlikely to contribute to meeting local housing needs as identified through the borough’s SHMA. This approach may reduce the opportunities within the borough for catering to the market for international investors from new build developments but opportunities will continue to remain within the second-hand market.

MM87 Policy CH1 d d. optimise the number of residential units delivered in new developments by taking into account the London Plan policy on housing density relevant range within the London Plan density matrix.

MM88 35.3.18 The Council has a general duty to promote the supply of starter homes as set out in the Housing and Planning Act 2016. The Government intends to include starter homes as a

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason new form of affordable housing. Eligibility for starter homes is linked to age which is set in the Housing and Planning Act 2016 as between 23 and 40 years. The intention is to help young first time buyers on to the housing ladder. Starter homes should be discounted at 20% below market value with a maximum price cap of £450,000 in Greater London. The requirement for starter homes is set nationally and is not based on local needs assessment. The Local Plan supports the provision of starter homes on qualifying sites. The detailed requirements for provision of starter homes are expected to be crystallised in the forthcoming Starter Homes Regulations.

MINOR/056 35.3.21 In order to set a planning policy target that achieves the Consultation response, factual correction. maximum reasonable amount of affordable housing, the Council must take account of need but also deliverability. Firstly, the Council’s housing target of 733 dwellings per annum is supply based on housing capacity which is limited. Furthermore, even if the borough’s entire housing requirement for the next fifteen years were to be delivered as affordable homes, the cumulative affordable need figure for the same period could still not be met. The second issue that must be taken into account is the economic viability of delivering affordable housing. Paragraph 173 of the NPPF requires that new developments should not be subject to such a scale of obligations and policy burdens that their ability to be viably developed is threatened.

MM89 35.3.22A The revised NPPF broadens the definition of affordable housing to include starter homes, discounted market sales housing and other affordable routes to home ownership. It also proposes that planning policies should expect 10% of all homes on major housing development are to be affordable home ownership products. Home ownership products are part of the wider intermediate tenure and include starter homes, discounted market sales housing and other

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason affordable routes to home ownership. These will be defined in the revised NPPF.

MM90 35.3.23 The Council’s Affordable Housing Target Viability Study, 2016 update and its update of April 2017 demonstrates that a proportion of affordable housing is viable in all residential developments, and all mixed use developments with 30% of commercial floor space. However, the level of viability varies significantly by area. The range for a generally viable affordable housing target is shown to be between 35% and 40% in the majority of the borough. The Viability Study update April 2017 and Policy CH2 have factored in the proposed broader definition of affordable housing to include starter homes, discounted market sales housing and affordable private rent housing and also include a minimum of 10% affordable home ownership products. requirement in these targets, assuming the Government will implement its proposed 20% starter homes requirement and include starter homes within the definition of affordable housing.

MM91 35.3.24 The Mayor’s Draft Affordable Housing and Viability SPG, November 2016 August 2017 makes it clear that the Mayor is committed to a long-term strategic aim of half of all new homes in London being affordable. Supported by the Council’s Affordable Housing Target Viability Study, 2016 (as well as the update of April 2017) and the ‘threshold approach’ in the Mayor’s SPG the policy sets a borough wide minimum target of 35% without the use of public subsidy. Schemes providing at least this level of affordable housing on-site, meeting the specified tenure mix, and other planning requirements and obligations do not need to submit a financial viability appraisal. This approach would negateing the need for protracted negotiations and offering consistency and certainty for applicants. In-line with the Mayor’s SPG all applicants should explore the use of grant and other public subsidy to increase the level of affordable housing to the

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason Mayor’s strategic aim of 50%. This approach would help maximise the provision of affordable housing and cater to the overwhelming need.

MM92 35.3.28 Affordable housing provision currently consists of three different types of tenure – social rent, affordable rent and intermediate which meets the requirements of households whose needs are not met by the market. Eligibility for each of these types of housing is primarily determined with regard to income. The revised NPPF includes social rent and affordable rent within a broad definition of affordable housing for rent.

MM93 35.3.29 Affordable housing for rent in accordance with the Government’s rent policy typically meets the needs of those on the lowest incomes and is let to people on the Council’s housing register. Affordable housing for rented housing can also only be let through Councils or private registered providers to those groups that would also be eligible for social rented housing. The rents are subject to rent controls nationally of no more than 80% of market rent. The Council has an adopted housing policy for new affordable rent tenancies to ensure that they remain affordable to those in housing need. Intermediate housing is homes for sale and rent provided at a cost above social rent, but below market levels. The eligibility is linked to household income levels which are set in the London Plan and revised annually in the London Plan Monitoring Report. Starter homes, discounted market sales housing and affordable private rent other affordable routes to home ownership housing are all considered to be part of the wider intermediate tenure.

MINOR/057 35.3.30 It is expected that starter homes will also be included in the Now included in new paragraph 35.3.22A as a Main definition of affordable housing in the future. Modification MM89.

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason MM94 35.3.31 In terms of the existing three affordable housing tenure types, the London Plan requires that the Council sets a separate target for the provision of social/affordable rented housing and intermediate housing. Policy 3.11 ‘Affordable Housing Targets’ of the London Plan proposes a strategic target of 60% of affordable housing provision as social/affordable rent and 40% for intermediate rent or sale. The Royal Borough is a borough of contrasts with extreme wealth and deprivation and its housing stock caters to those on the opposite end of the spectrum. The Council considers there is a need to increase the provision of intermediate housing which caters to those in between and a 50:50 tenure split in criterion c. of Policy CH2 supports this. The SHMA 2015 included various scenarios for the affordable housing tenure split including one similar to the 50:50 tenure split in criterion c. The 50% intermediate tenure can include intermediate rent and a minimum of 10% affordable home ownership products as proposed by the Government.

MM95 35.3.33 The tenure mix in Policy CH2 has been tested for viability and can be delivered with no impact on the overall affordable housing target. The Council’s viability evidence demonstrates that the tenure mix is viable and deliverable and has the flexibility to deliver a mix of intermediate products as set out in national policy.

MINOR/058 35.3.61 The Council’s SHMA1 estimates current supply of specialist Correcting typo. elderly accommodation in the borough is 1,350 units incorporating both sheltered and extra care housing. There are also residential and nursing cares homes which provide care services for older people. In 2013 the Council published its ‘Modernising Older People’s Housing and Accommodation with Care Services Strategy’ which outlined the vision to improve the quality, quantity and choice of housing and accommodation with care services for older people. The evidence underpinning the strategy identifies that there is currently a lack of choice in terms of extra care and sheltered housing which is likely to lead to ongoing demand for expensive care home services. The Council’s housing and adult social care service therefore supports an increase in the capacity of specialist provision by encouraging the development of new extra care housing. Extra care housing can meet the needs of a range of older people who are able to be diverted away from residential and nursing care, and retains a degree of independent living. Alongside the delivery of new extra care housing provision, the borough also needs good quality, accessible housing for older people in which care can be delivered if required, but not by on-site services. This so-called ‘sheltered’ or ‘retirement’ housing supports

1 Table 9.4 SHMA 2015 62

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason independent living but also meets aspirations to live in safe and secure communities.

MM100 35.3.63 The Mayor’s Housing SPG acknowledges that there has been some debate over how to categorise specialist older persons accommodation in terms of the Use Class Order and whether it is C2 or C3 use. The SPG provides further guidance and commentary on the view to take on the use class. Critically whether the use class falls within C2 or C3 would determine if the proposal is subject to affordable housing requirements and trigger the considerations for viability. Ultimately it is not for planning policy to classify use classes and a view will have to be taken on a case-by-case basis using available guidance. The Council’s Affordable Housing Viability Study Update, July (2016) indicates that the Council should seek to continue to apply Policy CH2 to seek affordable housing on these schemes, with the same site- specific viability caveats that apply to all other residential developments.

MINOR/059 35.3.70 The Mayor’s Draft Affordable Housing and Viability SPG, Cross referring to adopted SPG, consultation November 2016 August 2017 recognises that long term, response, to aid clarity. purpose built, private rented “build to rent” developments in block ownership and managed as a single development could make a particular contribution to meeting housing need. Such schemes are beneficial in a number of ways; they have the potential to accelerate delivery and not compete with nearby for sale developments; they can offer longer term tenancies/more certainty over long term availability; they can ensure high quality management through single ownership; and they can ensure a commitment to, and investment in, place making. They can also meet a wide range of needs, including those of singles, sharers, families and older people. The definition in the Mayor’s Draft Affordable Housing and Viability SPG, November 2016 August 2017 will be used in classifying a

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason scheme as build to rent. This includes including a covenant that homes to be held as build to rent for at least 15 years.

MM101 35.3.71A Build to Rent schemes will be expected to provide intermediate rent or affordable private rent housing subject to a viability appraisal in-line with the Mayor’s Affordable Housing and Viability SPG. The Council’s Affordable Housing Viability Study Update, April 2017 demonstrates that 35% affordable private rent or intermediate rent would be generally viable in build to rent schemes in the borough. The Government’s consultation on Planning and Affordable Housing for Build to Rent recognises that a different approach for Build to Rent as set out in the Mayor’s Affordable Housing and Viability SPG may be suitable for London.

MM102 Policy CH4 e. e. support build to rent schemes in particular those that include intermediate rent or affordable private rent as part of the affordable housing component;

MM103 Estate Renewal Add new paragraph at start of reasoned justification for Policy CH4 as follows: Following the tragic fire at Grenfell Tower on 14 June 2017, the Council decided to end the three new estate regeneration projects which were being worked on in the borough at Silchester, Barlby-Treverton and Warwick Road estates. It was also pledged by the Leader that any estate regeneration projects on the affected estates would be co-designed in conjunction with the residents living within the relevant estate and put to a binding vote with projects only going ahead with the majority of residents in support. Following these commitments, the Council commits to an early review of the Local Plan, at least in part, to consider issues related to North Kensington, the Latimer ‘Place’, estate regeneration and housing supply, to be adopted within three years of this Local Plan’s adoption. In the meantime, all policies in the

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason development plan (the London Plan, the Local Plan and any relevant neighbourhood plans) will continue to apply.

MM104 35.3.79 The Council as landowner is exploring options for the regeneration of existing low density housing estates. Estate regeneration provides a potential opportunity to:

 Ensure that housing stock meets the needs of existing and future residents.  Help tackle underlying causes of deprivation by improving health outcomes, employment opportunities, educational attainment and aspiration, and to reduce crime and the fear of crime.  Build the ‘conservation areas of the future’ by reflecting and matching the high quality urban design in the rest of the borough. Deliver additional housing and affordable housing.

MM105 35.3.80 Estate regeneration may take the form of the refurbishment of existing housing stock, infill development or partial or comprehensive redevelopment.

MM106 35.3.81 Estate renewal regeneration proposals often differ from other types of proposals for residential development because often the sale of market housing is used to fund the reprovided social rented and other forms of affordable housing. For this reason the proportions of social rented affordable and market housing may differ from conventional housing applications where cross subsidy is not being done on the same scale.

MM107 35.3.82 In calculating whether there is any net loss of affordable housing through estate renewal regeneration, former social rented properties sold under the right to buy or right to acquire should be categorised as market sector provision. This includes the right to buy or right to acquire units which have been used on an interim basis as, for example,

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason temporary accommodation in advance of estate regeneration progressing.

MM108 35.3.83 The Council as a Local Housing Authority will be publishing the Tenant Decant Policy and consulting on a Strategy for Leaseholders in Regeneration Areas. This will provide the Council’s policies on right to return, deals for leaseholders, and offers for adult children or other family members.

MM109 35.3.84 Sites which appear to may be suitable for estate renewal regeneration (of one form or another) are Silchester East and West, Warwick Road and Treverton. These sites, and their wider surrounding areas, appear in land use planning terms to offer opportunities for the delivery of new housing in the Royal Borough. Options for the regeneration of these sites require further investigation, and ultimately the regeneration option chosen, if any, will be determined by the Council as landowner, having regard to a wide range of considerations, including consultation responses.

MM110 35.3.85 The Council has made clear that it will always consult potentially affected residents at the earliest feasible opportunity and has committed to engaging with and involving affected residents throughout the appraisal, design and development processes. The Council has also resolved that any redevelopment should be designed around traditional streets and squares and to be mixed-tenure.

MM111 CH5 Estate Delete whole of Policy CH5 and revert to Policy CH4 for Regeneration Estate Renewal in adopted Local Plan:

MM114 35.3.89 The shortage and high cost of land in the borough means that there are many competing land uses. The Council has commenced agreed a Joint Site Appraisal Study Methodology (2016) with the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham which will to investigate opportunities to provide new Ggypsy and Ttraveller sites within the two boroughs. A site appraisal for this borough has been undertaken using this methodology. The boroughs will work with partners, Rregistered Pproviders, developers, neighbouring authorities, the Mayor of London and TfL to explore making provision in line with the most up to date needs assessment over the plan period. The Council will continue to work with LBHF and these partners to seek to address the findings from the Joint GTANA by producing an options paper following the completion of both site appraisals. The Council and LBHF will explore all available options in meeting the objectives of national policy in order to identify a NPPF compliant supply of sites during the course of 2018. This will be reported in the Council’s annual monitoring report. Any subsequent planning applications should be considered against the criteria set out in the PPTS, the criteria in Policy CH6 and other relevant planning policies and guidance.

Subsequent work was then undertaken to look at the investment requirements of the stock and how this could be met with the projected funding shortfall in the Capital Programme. This work concluded that the Council should continue to retain its stock as the new HRA self-financing arrangements gave local authorities the resources, incentives and the flexibility they needed to manage their own housing stock over the long term.

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason MM119 Respecting This chapter includes a range of policies to mitigate climate Environmen change. Policy CE1 Climate Change, sets out the measures tal Limits to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, Policy CE2 considers New flood risk, its impacts and SuDS, and Policy CE5 addresses paragraph Air Quality. However, apart from these more obvious after 36.1.6 mitigation and adaptation policies, the Local Plan includes policies in different chapters which help mitigate the effects of climate change. The principal policies are, C1 Infrastructure Delivery and Planning Contributions (chapter 29), CT1 Improving alternatives to car use, CT2 New and enhanced rail infrastructure (chapter 32), CR4 Streetscape, CL2 Design Quality, and CL7 Basements (chapter 34). Policies on green infrastructure are also included in chapter 33 (Policy CR5 Parks, Gardens, Open Spaces and Waterways) and Policy CE4 Biodiversity (chapter 36).

ADD/39 36.1.7 Respecting Environmental Limits is an integral part of the Text should reflect the change to the title of the vision Royal Borough’s vision of Building on Success. Tackling these issues is central in upholding our residents’ quality of life.

MM120 Policy CE1 Amend criterion iii as follows: Climate iii. decentralised heating, cooling and energy supply, Change through Combined Cooling Heat and Power (CCHP) or similar, while ensuring that heat and energy production does not result in unacceptable levels of local air pollution in particular on site allocations such as Kensal, Wornington Green, Latimer and Earl’s Court

MM121 36.3.12a Insert new paragraph as follows: In terms of non-domestic buildings, the Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Methodology (BREEAM) tools provide a nationally-recognised sustainable design standard for non-domestic development, incorporating categories such as energy, water, materials, transport, waste, pollution, health and wellbeing, management, land use and ecology. BREEAM pre-assessments should be submitted at the application stage for non-domestic developments, clearly identifying how the requirements set out in the policy will be achieved.

MINOR/066 36.3.21 Flood Risk Assessments are required for development within The Environment Agency has suggested the minor Critical Drainage Areas, Flood Zone 3 and Flood Zone 2. amendment to provide additional supporting text to the However, within Critical Drainage areas this is only relevant if policy within the document. the development has any drainage implications which could lead to flooding elsewhere or could be more vulnerable as a result of the development proposed (due to the land use being more vulnerable or to the infrastructure proposed). For example, Flood Risk Assessments will be required for basement applications; when the development is at ground level and could potentially lead to a decrease in the site’s permeability or an increase in the site’s vulnerability to flooding; or if the proposed development could have an impact on any physical structure which could reduce the effect of flooding in the area (flood risk assets). Most development at first floor level and above may not require a

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason Flood Risk Assessment. However, the requirement for an assessment will need to be considered at an early stage. It will be expected that any proposed flood risk measures and flood risk assets are protected and maintained to remain operational and built to a standard where they would provide adequate protection for the lifetime of the development.

MM122 Flood Risk To address sewer flooding in the borough, Thames Water is 36.3.29 delivering proposing to build the Counters Creek Sewer Flood Alleviation Scheme Storm Relief Sewer. Ofwat approved the funds needed to undertake the this Counters Creek Sewer Alleviation Scheme in December 2014. Thames Water’s proposal includesd four elements: a new storm relief sewer to increase the sewer capacity (currently under review); SuDS to reduce surface water run-off; anti-flooding (FLIP) devices to stop the sewers surcharging into lower properties; and, local sewer improvements to increase the capacity of local sewers. Thames Water will continue to investigate the future resilience required for the sewer network, taking into account population growth, development, urban creep and climate change.

MM123 36.3.29 Insert new text after paragraph 36.3.29 as follows: At a property level, protection from sewer flooding can be achieved by the provision of a suitable pump device, similar to FLIPs. Sewers often surcharge to just below manhole cover level and so connecting a lower ground floor via a gravity connection provides a new low point for the surcharging sewer to discharge to. To reduce the risk of flooding, waste water from floors lower than the sewer level should be pumped. Fitting only a ‘non return valve’ is not acceptable as this is not effective in directing the flow of sewage away from the building. This is currently required by Policy CL7 for basement properties.

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason MM124 Policy CE2 Amend criterion d. iii. as follows: d.iii. iii. ensure buildings remain safe for occupants in case of flooding; and are protected from sewer flooding through the installation of a suitable pumped device when the new development includes floors below the level of the sewer.

MM126 Waste The Council is statutorily required to deliver its Local Authority 36.3.36 Collected Waste to places as directed by the Western Riverside Waste Authority (WRWA). Currently all of the Local Authority Collected Waste municipal waste goes to WRWA facilities in Wandsworth for transfer and treatment (Western Riverside Transfer Station near Wandsworth Bridge and Cringle Dock Transfer Station next to Battersea Power Station). Since 2011, recyclables go to a Materials Recycling Facility at Smugglers Way in Wandsworth and residuals are barged down river to the Riverside Resource Recovery Limited (RRRL)’s facility at Belvedere, in the London Borough of Bexley where the waste is incinerated to generate electricity. It is the largest EfW facility in the UK and one of the largest in Europe, which will eventually generate 72MW of power. This is confirmed by the WRWA’s Policy Statement (July 2013) which also states that the facility can handle 670,000 tonnes of waste per year although the WRWA supplies around 300,000 tonnes of residual waste to it. The contract runs until 2031 meaning that, in reality, waste arisings from the borough and the other WRWA Waste Planning Authorities (WPAs) are dealt with in Bexley. The Belvedere Energy from Waste plant opened in Bexley in May 2012. The Council is will continue to working jointly with the WRWA to agree with the Waste Planning Authority ensure that existing arrangements can continue and if necessary its

MM128 36.3.38 The Council has prepared a joint Waste Technical Paper with the other WPAs in the WRWA area. The Waste Technical Paper sets out the waste arisings within the WRWA area for waste streams and the ability to meet the London Plan apportionment. This establishes that the available waste treatment capacity in the borough to help meet the waste apportionment is 30,660 tpa. The Council is safeguarding Cremorne Wharf for future waste use which has an estimated capacity of between 23,400 tpa. The capacity in the borough will therefore increase to 54,060 tpa by 2036.

MM129 36.3.39 The Waste Technical Paper concludes that there is currently a shortfall of 167 ktpa of capacity to meet its apportionment within the borough. Including capacity from the safeguarded Cremorne Wharf site, this will reduce to 143,940 tpa by 2036 The borough’s apportionment gap increases to 2036, this is a result of the increasing London Plan apportionment target over the period. Due to the constrained nature of the

MM133 Air Quality The evidence on air quality shows that we need to ensure 36.3.56 that development proposals address the potential impact on air quality both as individual development proposals alongside their combined cumulative impact with neighbouring developments. In accordance with the requirements set out in the Air Quality SPD (2009) the Council will require that applicants for planning permission for major development (as defined in the London Plan) demonstrate a reduction in the expected emissions from a development relative to its previous or current use. Any air quality assessment and low emission strategy must set out the potential impact of the development on local air quality for both the construction and operational phases of the development. Given the ongoing exceedances of air pollutants throughout the borough, every opportunity must be taken to improve air quality. Where a development is likely to result in increased emissions, developers will be expected to include proposals for the reduction/mitigation of these emissions in a detailed emissions assessment. Construction management plans also play a role in controlling emissions during demolition and construction. The Council has a specific policy to take decisive action to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and air pollutants which is set out in the Air Quality and Climate Change Action Plan 2016-2021164. Air quality improvements can be made as part of public realm improvements such as greening initiatives.

Chapter 40: Housing Trajectory and Supporting Information

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason

MM143 Housing The London Plan, sets out a housing target of 733 dwellings Trajectory per annum that the borough should seek to meet and exceed. The target is for ten years between 2015 and 2025 40.1.1 and has been rolled forward to 145 years (1 April 2015 – 31 March 2029) resulting in an overall target of 10,995 units giving a target of 10,262 dwellings. From 2015-2017 a total of 531 dwellings were completed, leaving a remaining housing requirement on 1 April 2017, of 9,731 dwellings to the end of plan period.

124

MM144 40.1.2 First five year period (20167/178 to 20201/212) The NPPF requires authorities to identify and update annually a supply of specific deliverable sites to provide five years’ worth of housing against their housing requirements with an additional buffer of 205% (moved forward from later in the plan period) to ensure choice and competition in the market for land where there is persistent evidence of under delivery against the plan target as in the case in the borough. To be considered deliverable sites should be:

MM145 40.1.3 The sites that make up the land supply for each year consist of the following components: 1. Units under construction (at 1 April 201765) not expected to complete within the current monitoring year. Assumptions were made that schemes of between 1 and 24 units would be complete within two financial years of the start date. On sites of 25 units or more, the best available information has been used to estimate completions. As development is actively occurring on these sites, they are considered to meet the tests of availability, suitability and deliverability set out the NPPF. 2. Units on sites with planning permission but not yet under construction. Assumptions were made that schemes of between 1 and 24 units would complete in three financial years from 01/04/20176 and are therefore all included as completions within FY2018/19 and 2019/20. On sites of 25 units or more the best available information has been used to estimate the timing of completions. 3. A small sites estimate was used to inform the land supply for the years 2018/19, 2019/20 and 2020/21 and 2021/22. The figure of 152 pa has been taken from the London SHLAA 2013.

125

4. An estimate of vacant homes brought back into use of 46 units per annum also taken from the SHLAA is included for every year from 20157/168. The non-self-contained allowance for the borough is 0 units per annum (London SHLAA 2013) so does not contribute to projections for this period, or to projections in the second or third five year periods.

Second and Third five year period (2021/22 – 2030/31) MM146 40.1.4 Years 6 to 12 (2022/23 to 2028/29) The NPPF requires that for this period a supply of specific, developable sites or broad locations for growth are identified. Whilst this is specific for years 6 to 10; for years 11-15 the requirement is to demonstrate this only where possible. The sites which make up this element of supply are those strategic sites allocated in the Local Plan (with and without planning permission) together with other sites identified for inclusion within the council’s estate regeneration programme the Council has become aware of but which are not progressed enough to include in the first five years.

MM147 40.1.7 The housing supply requirement from 1 April 20176 to 31 March 20221 is 4,258 400 dwellings. This is made up of five years of the borough’s annual supply target of 733 new homes, plus the undersupply of 935 dwellings for the period 2015-2017 spread across the plan period and a 205% buffer brought forward from later in the plan period as required in the NPPF where there has been a record of persistent under-delivery against the borough’s target. Chapter 35 explains the basis for the application of a 5% buffer and the ‘Liverpool’ approach to addressing the undersupply. The current supply of deliverable sites during this period is expected to be 4,4106 dwellings based on those sites

126

assessed as deliverable in the housing trajectory. This information is provided in the tables below.

MM148 40.1.8 The housing trajectory currently shows a total development pipeline of 11,694 8,979 net additional units for the 125 year period 20167/187 to 2028/2930/31. The total target over the same period is 9,731 10,995 units. Therefore the total capacity is about 700 752 units above below the borough target over the same period.

MM149 The total 125 year housing supply (20176/187 to 40.1.9 2028/2930/31) is the first five year supply of 4,4106 dwellings (sources of supply as shown above) plus the anticipated supply from site allocations and other large sites for years 6 to 10 (2,318755 dwellings) and 11 to 125 (865 2,543 dwellings) shown above. In addition the assumptions for 152 dwellings per annum (dpa) small sites estimate and 46 dpa vacant units returning to use each year need to be added for years 6 to 125 (10 7 years). This results in a 125 year supply of 11,694 8,979 dwellings against a target of 10,995 9,731 dwellings over the same period giving a surplus deficit of 699 752 units. In other words the Council can demonstrate a 11 year supply against the current London Plan target. The Council intends to address this shortfall through an early review of the Plan against the forthcoming revised London Plan housing target.

For Build to Rent schemes affordable housing for rent is expected to be the normal form of affordable housing provision (and, in this context, is known as Affordable Private Rent). ed housing is let by local authorities or private registered providers of social housing to households who are eligible for social rented housing. Affordable Rent is subject to rent controls that require a rent of no more than 80% of the local market rent (including service charges, where applicable). (NPPF, Annex 2)

Affordable Affordable private rent housing is housing that is made MM152 private rent available for rent at a level which is at least 20 per cent housing below local market rent. Eligibility is determined with regard to local incomes and local house prices. Provision should be made to ensure that affordable private rent housing remains available for rent at a discount for future eligible households or for alternative affordable housing provision to be made if the discount is withdrawn.

Reference Policy/Para Modification Reason MM154 Existing Use The ‘Existing Use Value plus’ (EUV+) approach to Value plus determining the benchmark land value is based on the current use value of a site plus an appropriate site premium. The principle of this approach is that a landowner should receive at least the value of the land in its ‘pre-permission’ use, which would normally be lost when bringing forward land for development. A premium is usually added to provide the landowner with an additional incentive to release the site, having regard to site circumstances. Further guidance on the approach including the premium is set out in paragraphs 015 and 016 of the PPG on Viability and the Mayor’s Affordable Housing and Viability SPG, August 2017.

It provides multiple benefits for people and wildlife including: flood management; urban cooling; improving physical and mental health; green transport links (walking and cycling routes); ecological connectivity; and food growing. Green and open spaces of all sizes can be part of green infrastructure provided they contribute to the functioning of the network as a whole.

MM156 Intermediate Intermediate housing is discount market sales, affordable Housing private rent housing and other housing that meets the following criteria: housing that is provided for sale and rent at a cost above rents set by Government policy, but below market levels. Eligibility is determined with regard to local incomes and local house prices. It should also include provisions to remain at an affordable price for future eligible

These can include other affordable routes to home ownership such as shared Ownership, equity loans, other low cost homes for sale and intermediate rent (including Rent to Buy housing).

Intermediate housing is homes for sale and rent provided at a cost above social rent, but below market levels subject to the criteria in the Affordable Housing definition above. These can include shared equity (shared ownership and equity loans), other low cost homes for sale and intermediate rent, but not affordable rented housing. (Annex 2, NPPF). Intermediate housing can include shared ownership, shared equity or intermediate rent but not affordable rented housing. To qualify for intermediate housing, the London Plan has set household income levels which are updated annually through the London Plan Annual Monitoring Report. The Monitoring Report 2016 updated the thresholds to £18,100-£90,000.

Social rented housing is owned by housing local authorities and private registered providers (as defined in section 80 of the Housing and Regeneration Act 2008), for which guideline target rents are determined through the Government’s national rent policy regime. It may also be owned by other persons and provided under equivalent rental arrangements to the above, as agreed with the local authority or with the Homes and Communities Agency. The revised NPPF includes social rented housing i.e. rent set in accordance with the Government’s rent policy as affordable housing for rent (see definition above). (Annex 2, NPPF)
