Conclusion and Next Steps .............................................................................................................. 59 Poole Local Plan Review. Issues and Options. Draft Green Belt Review. June 2016 2 1. Introduction 1. The general extent of the South East Dorset Green Belt was first designated in 1980, as part of the adoption of the South East Dorset Structure Plan (1980). 2. The designation was primarily seen as a means of restricting the outward growth of the conurbation of Poole, Bournemouth and Christchurch; and protecting the separate identity of towns such as Wimborne, Wareham and Ringwood. An attitude of control and containment was the main premise of strategic planning policy at that time and the long-term growth needs of the sub-region were assessed periodically through structure and regional planning. 3. The South East Dorset Green Belt was last subject to strategic review in the work that was undertaken for the draft South West Regional Spatial Strategy in the mid-2000s. This work recommended some land to be released from the South East Dorset Green Belt to meet strategic development needs although did not include any from Poole 4. The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) sets out a presumption in favour of sustainable development1 and requires local planning authorities to plan positively for the current and future needs of their population. In this context, the Borough of Poole is undertaking a review of the Poole Local Plan to consider the latest evidence on development needs within and beyond the Borough boundary. Of particular relevance is the Eastern Dorset Strategic Housing Market Assessment (December 2015) that identifies that Poole’s housing needs are 710 homes per annum in the period 2013 to 2033. By contrast the current housing requirement for Poole is to provide 500 homes per annum between 2006 and 2026. 5. In accordance with the NPPF the Local Plan Review will be considering all available evidence to establish an updated spatial strategy aimed at meeting objectively assessed needs where possible. Poole is subject to considerable environmental and physical constraints with the sea to the south, Green Belt to the north and a range of internationally protected sites. These constraints mean that we have to plan carefully to meet Poole’s development needs in a sustainable and realistic manner. 6. However, notwithstanding the constraints to development, there is a need to look at all options for meeting Poole’s development needs. The increase in housing needs, in particular, represents a significant challenge for the borough and as a result may require the consideration of outward expansion to meet some of the development needs. The council must assess the potential for outward expansion if it is found that Poole’s development needs cannot be met within the urban area. For Poole, this inevitably involves considering land that falls within the South East Dorset Green Belt. As part of this consideration, we are undertaking a comprehensive review of the Green Belt within the Borough. 7. This process relies significantly upon a Green Belt Assessment, which is an evidence-based study of the extent to which different parts of the South East Dorset Green Belt within the Borough display the essential characteristics of openness and permanence; and meet the purposes of Green Belt as originally set out in the South East Dorset Structure Plan 1980 and those in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). 8. While the Green Belt review will assist in the decision making process with regard to identifying the best location or locations for housing development sites and where it might be appropriate to alter the 1 National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) Department for Communities and Local Government March 2012 Poole Local Plan Review. Issues and Options. Draft Green Belt Review. June 2016 3 Green Belt boundary, this report is only concerned with the objective site assessment stage of the review. No consideration has been given to the suitability of the assessed parcels for development – only how development would impact upon the contribution that the particular parcel makes to the purposes of Green Belt. 9. The assessment has been carried out in a rigorous and consistent manner, using a robust methodology. As outlined above, no consideration of development potential was made to ensure that the judgements reached were

The Open Day at the Memorial Hall attracted over 800 villagers WEST MOORS PARISH PLAN Looking to the future with over 50 ways to improve the village. Produced by the West Moors Parish Plan Steering Committee 2007 1. INTRODUCTION Background to Parish Plans The Government’s Rural White Paper “Our Countryside, the Future” (2000) proposed that all rural communities should develop “Town, Village and Parish Plans” to identify key facilities and services and to set out the problems that needed to be tackled with a view to demonstrating how distinctive character and features could be preserved. This was followed by the Countryside Agency launching its “Vital Villages” programme in 2001. The goal of the programme was to achieve socially and economically active rural communities that address their own priorities making them better equipped to shape their own futures. Parish Plans form part of this programme and funding for this initiative came from Dorset Community Action A Parish Plan should address the needs of the entire community and an important aspect of this is that everyone should be given the opportunity to take part in its preparation.
