In contrast, the Council’s recently adopted position on five year housing land supply details a supply of 5.15 years for the period 2015/16 to 2019/20. 1.4 The Council have not produced a detailed commentary on specific sites, however have produced a trajectory providing the Council’s anticipated timings and delivery rates for sites forming the five year housing land supply position.

Introduction Local consultation and analysis has shaped Derbyshire’s Local Transport Plan. This Investment Protocol forms a supplementary document to the plan. For each of our key transport priorities identified in the main document, it summarises what we want to achieve in five years and gives examples of key evidence that will be required to justify the programme of work. It indicates what areas of investment we support, which measures will only be used sparingly, and which measures will not be supported, unless in exceptional circumstances. This is an ambitious task overall, and a first version of the protocol (produced April 2011) has been further refined and updated to help guide programme development and efficient business planning in both capital and revenue spend.

  • Infrastructure Delivery Plan Final Jan14
    Infrastructure Delivery Plan for Amber Valley 1. Introduction 1.1. An Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) is a key supporting document in Amber Valley’s Local Plan (part 1). It forms part of the evidence base and informed the preparation of the plan itself. It sets out the transport, physical, social and green infrastructure required to support the Borough’s future growth up to 2028. 1.2. There will be significant levels of growth in terms of housing and other development and it is essential for the Council and its partners to deliver the services necessary to achieve timely, sustainable and effective infrastructure to meet the needs of all residents in the future. 1.3. The information in this document has been produced in collaboration with various infrastructure providers operating in the Borough and is discussed in more detail in the next chapter. 1.4. Local Plans should be supported by an adequate, up-to-date and relevant evidence base about the economic, social and environmental characteristics and prospects of Amber Valley. The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), paragraph 162, states in relation to infrastructure that: “Local planning authorities should work with other authorities and providers to: • Assess the quality and capacity of infrastructure for transport, water supply, wastewater and its treatment, energy (including heat), telecommunications, utilities, waste, health, social care, education, flood risk and coastal change management, and its ability to meet forecast demands; and • Take account of the need for strategic infrastructure including nationally significant infrastructure within their areas.” 1.5. The 2008 Planning Act 1 defines infrastructure as including roads and other transport facilities; flood defences; schools and other educational facilities; medical facilities; sporting and recreational facilities; open spaces; and affordable housing.

Introduction The Borough Council produced the Preferred Growth Strategy as part of the preparation of the Core Strategy for Amber Valley. Derby City Council and South Derbyshire District Council also produced Core Strategies for their administrative areas on an aligned timetable. These three authorities form the Derby Housing Market Area. The Preferred Growth Strategy set out proposals for the number of new homes to be provided in the Borough up to 2028, as well as identifying the Council’s preferred locations for strategic sites to contribute to housing growth. The Preferred Growth Strategy was approved by the Council on 26 September 2012 and was published for public consultation and community involvement from 30 September to 21 December 2012. The process of consultation and community involvement included a series of public events held in key locations across the Borough to enable local people to learn more about the proposals. Specific consultation on the Preferred Growth Strategy was also undertaken with a range of statutory bodies and other individual and organisations, as well as with those who have responded to previous consultation on the emerging Core Strategy.

    Public Agenda Item No. 5(g) DERBYSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL MEETING OF CABINET MEMBER – JOBS, ECONOMY AND TRANSPORT 21 January 2014 Report of the Acting Strategic Director – Environmental Services CONSULTATION ON AMBER VALLEY LOCAL PLAN PART 1 – PRE-SUBMISSION CORE STRATEGY (1) Purpose of the Report To agree the County Council’s response to Amber Valley Borough Council’s (AVBC) public consultation on its Local Plan Part 1 – Pre-Submission Core Strategy (Pre-Submission CS). (2) Information and Analysis The Pre-Submission CS sets out the overall vision, strategic objectives, the main spatial strategy and more detailed policies to guide future development in the Borough up to 2028. It sets out the Borough’s proposed future housing requirement of 9,400 new dwellings and employment land needs of 75 hectares (ha) between 2008 and 2028. It also identifies seven Strategic Growth Sites and policies for their development. They are proposed to accommodate large scale, mixed-use housing and employment growth, including a range of supporting infrastructure requirements, particularly proposals for a A610 Ripley-Codnor Bypass. The Pre-Submission CS will comprise Part 1 of the new Local Plan for Amber Valley. It will be followed by the publication of a Site Allocations and Development Management Policies Document (Part 2) that will allocate non- strategic development sites, include detailed policies on a range of specific issues, and designate and define environmental and other areas. The County Council submitted detailed Member and Technical Officer comments to AVBC on its Local Plan Part 1 – Draft Core Strategy (Draft CS), which were formally agreed at the Meeting of the Cabinet Member - Jobs, Economy and Transport on 10 September 2013 (Minute No.
