  • A Strategy for the Identification of Contaminated Land Within Its Area
    A Strategy for the Identification of Contaminated Land June 2001- Issue 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY. Under legislation introduced on 1st April, 2000, Stroud District Council was placed under a statutory duty to inspect its District to identify contaminated land. A formal strategy was to be published by July, 2001 which would detail how the Authority intended to undertake its inspection duties. This document is that strategy. The District Council is the lead Authority with regard to contaminated land but, wherever necessary, it undertakes to work in partnership with other organisations, particularly the Environment Agency. Detailed consultation regarding this strategy was undertaken with both statutory and non-statutory consultees up to April, 2001. Publication of this final version occurred on 30th June, 2001, in line with legislative requirements. The Council’s priorities in dealing with contaminated land will be: 1. To protect human health 2. To protect controlled waters 3. To protect specified ecosystems 4. To prevent damage to property In dealing with these priorities the Council also aims to prevent any further contamination of land, to encourage voluntary remediation of contaminated land and to encourage re-use of brownfield land. A five-year programme of inspection will be undertaken with a target date for completion of April, 2005. A prioritised inspection programme is proposed, with Priority Investigation Areas being inspected first, followed by other areas later in the programme. Among the Priority Investigation Areas identified are major population centres, the Five Valleys, controlled waters are land owned by the Council itself. It is recognised that the inspection programme will need to be extremely flexible as some sites may be identified that require urgent attention.

  • Draft Design Statement
    Draft Design Statement Please note that this is a rough draft. This is the initial response from Frampton on Severn Parish Council. It will be subject to amendment from planners and County Highways and the completed version will probably not include all the recommendations that are made here. Recommendations under discussion are shown in darker green. We will also make amendments following responses from parishioners. The document will then be edited and typeset. The following still needs to be added: More photographs, particularly of brick types, boundary types and the different wards. Additional maps, including those of footpaths, the conservation area and the location of open spaces. References Acknowledgements Lists of organisations and businesses Appendices The format: Links to the Stroud District Local Plan (the document used by planners to make decisions) are in blue boxes. In the final printed version these are likely to be reduced to the Plan references only. At present the content is included so that parishioners can see the connection between the local and parish plans. Parish council recommendations are in light green boxes. Darker green indicates that they are under discussion with Stroud planners, need discussion with County Highways or need to be moved to a parish action plan and outside of the planning document. Please note that by hovering your cursor over the relevant chapter in the index and clicking, you can jump directly to the chapter. Below each section you will find the word ‘Index’ and if you hover over this and click you will jump back to the index.

  • Appendix 4: Landscape Assessment Criteria and Broad Area Proformas
    Appendix 4: Landscape Assessment Criteria and Broad Area Proformas The Assessment of Strategic Development Opportunities in Parts of Gloucestershire Landscape and Visual Sensitivity Assessment Criteria Physical character (including topography and scale) This considers the shape and scale of the landform, landscape pattern and landscape elements in relation to the scale of potential development. Smooth, gently undulating or flat landforms are likely to be less sensitive to development than a landscape with a more dramatic landform, distinct landform features or incised valleys with prominent slopes. This criterion considers how developments fit with the scale of the landform (understanding the scale of the development proposed is important when applying this criterion). Larger scale, simple landforms are likely to be less sensitive to larger scale developments than smaller scale, enclosed landforms (where large scale developments could appear out of scale with the underlying landform). Conversely, smaller developments may be able to be screened within enclosed landforms, therefore reducing landscape sensitivity. Existing small-scale features in the landscape in the form of existing buildings or trees will influence the scale of development that can be accommodated in the landscape. Low sensitivity Low-moderate Moderate sensitivity Moderate-high High sensitivity sensitivity sensitivity e.g. the landscape has e.g. the landscape has an e.g. the landscape has a smooth, gently undulating undulating landform and dramatic landform or or featureless landform some distinct landform distinct landform features with uniform large-scale features; it is overlain by that contribute positively landscape pattern and low a mixture of small-scale to landscape character; density of overlying and larger scale field the area has a high density landscape features.

  • Frampton on Severn Community Design Statement
    Frampton on Severn Community Design Statement A community’s description of Frampton on Severn parish and its guide for future development and conservation December 2018 Cover photgraph credits Front and back cover: Joshua Kattenhorn Inside front cover: Wayne Seeley (top), Tom Williams (bottom) Frampton on Severn Community Design Statement Autumn 2018 I welcome this document, which has been led by the local community. It offers residents a real opportunity to express their views on future changes to their local area by setting aspirations and providing a policy framework to consider proposals. It should encourage both locally distinctive and high quality design standards by identifying the local issues to be addressed. Such information can be used to celebrate our District’s special and diverse environmental qualities that I see every day. It should enhance all our understanding of the importance of local design in a collaborative and positive way. Doina Cornell Leader, Stroud District Council, 2018 Frampton on Severn Parish Council has been producing future plans for more than 40 years. These plans give groups and individuals the chance to influence Stroud District Council’s plans. The first version I came across was from 1976, produced after a consultation not dissimilar to the one we carried out during the summer of 2017. We had a 70% return from households, similar to 1976, but the big difference was technology - we could offer an on-line version of the survey and comprehensive analysis of results. Over the years, Frampton councillors have regularly consulted with parishioners to understand their needs and aspirations for our community and have worked hard to deliver on these.
