The Core Strategy Publication Draft was subject to 6 weeks public consultation during February – April 2012. Section 3 of this report summarises the issues raised and the Tables in Appendices 1a (Policy SP6) and 2a (Policy SP7) suggest how the City Council should respond. Appendix 1b illustrates how the text of Policy SP6 would need to be altered in response to comments on the housing requirement. There are no suggested changes to Policy SP7. 2. It is not considered that there are any issues significant enough to justify major changes. Recommendations Development Plan Panel is requested to: i). Endorse the analysis of the issues raised and any suggested Core Strategy text changes (as detailed in Appendices 1a, 1b and 2a to the report) for presentation to Executive Board for approval. Page 1 1.0 Purpose of this Report 1.1 Within the context of the Core Strategy Initial Report of Consultation (6 th June), the purpose of this report is to review consultation responses in relation to the housing requirement (Policy SP6) and housing distribution (Policy SP7). The appendices attached, summarise the representors, key issues raised, the City Council’s view and proposed action. 2.0 Background Information 2.1 Following Consideration by the Development Plan Panel and Executive Board, a 6 week period of public consultation has been undertaken, commencing on 28 th February to 12 th April 2012. Consistent with the LDF regulations, this is a targeted stage of consultation, with emphasis upon requesting responses in relation to the “soundness” of the plan. Within this context, the consultation material comprised of a range of documents, which were subsequently made available on line or as paper copies, including: • Core Strategy Publication Draft (Main Document) • Sustainability Appraisal (& Non Technical Summary) • Habitats Regulations Assessment Screening • Equality Impact Assessment Screening • Draft Infrastructure Delivery Plan • Draft Core Strategy Monitoring Framework • Health Topic Paper • Report of Consultation on Preferred Approach (October – December 2009) Links were also incorporated to the consultation web pages to the evidence based material, which has been prepared to help inform the emerging document (including the Employment Land Review, Leeds City Centre, Town and Local Centres Study, Housing Growth in Leeds, Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment, Strategic Housing Market Assessment and the Leeds open space, sport and recreation assessment. 3.0 Main Issues 3.1 Strategic Policy SP6 sets out the housing requirement for Leeds including how much land needs to be identified and what criteria are to be used to help identify the land. The housing requirement used to be set by the Regional Spatial Strategy, but it is now incumbent upon Local Authorities to set, based on robust evidence. The following issues were raised: i) the scale and justification of the windfall allowance ii) accounting for under-provision of housing before the start of the plan period iii) planning for an extra “buffer” to the 5 year supply of +5% or +20% iv) weaknesses in the underlying evidence v) the role of the 20,000 dwellings with outstanding planning permission vi) allowance for non-implementation of permissions vii) justification for a lower requirement figure during 2012 to 2017 viii) cross-boundary needs Page 2 ix) the merits of the housing land identification criteria 3.2 In support of the overall vision and strategy of the Plan, Policy SP7 provides a steer on the quantity of housing to be planned for at different tiers of the settlement hierarchy and in different geographical areas of Leeds. The main points raised include: i) flaws in the geographical boundaries of the Housing Market Characteristic Areas ii) lack of evidence to inform the choices of distribution iii) sufficiency of housing apportioned to Smaller Settlements and Other Rural areas iv) the methodology for distribution v) the role of the city centre vi) whether “Strategic Sites” should be identified in the Core Strategy vii) location specific comments 4.0 Corporate Considerations As noted above, the Core Strategy forms part of the Local Development Framework and once adopted will form part of the Development Plan for Leeds. 4.1 Consultation and Engagement 4.1.1 As outlined in this report, the Core Strategy Publication draft has been subject to a further 6 week period of consultation. This has been undertaken in accordance with the LDF Regulations and the City Council’s adopted Statement of Community Involvement (SCI).

  • Proceedings W Esley Historical Society
    Proceedings OF THE W esley Historical Society Editor: REv. JOHN C. BOWMER, M.A., B.D., Ph.D. Volume XL June 1975 JOHN WESLEY, LITERARY ARBITER An Introduction to his use of the Asterisk EADERS turning to the edition of his Works published by John Wesley in thirty-two volumes during the years 1771-4 R may naturally be surprised to find him deserting his normal custom (and the normal custom of the century) of using asterisks as the primary means for directing attention to footnotes. Instead he employs daggers, double daggers, parallel lines, the section mark, the paragraph symbol, but only occasionally asterisks, and then ob­ viously in error.1 On the other hand, the curious reader will also be surprised from time to time to discover that many paragraphs begin with an asterisk. If his curiosity is sufficiently aroused, he may turn to the preface in volume i to discover what Wesley was about. He might also wish to know when W esley began this practice, how fully he carried it out, and upon what principles. Perhaps he would also wonder whether this unusual feature was in fact unique. Wesley was in fact indicating purple passages. He may have derived the idea from Alexander Pope, who prefaced his edition of Shakespeare's works by pointing out: Some of the most shining passages are distinguished by con~mas in the margin; and where the beauty lay not in particulars but in the whole, a star is prefixed to the scene. Pope continued : This seems to me a shorter and less ostentatious method of performing the better half of criticism (namely the pointing out an author's excel­ lencies) than to fill a whole page with citations of fine passages, with general applauses, or empty exclamations at the tail of them.2 There is no certainty which edition (or editions) of Shakespeare Wesley used, but his diary shows him reading several of the tragedies and histories in 1726-the year after Pope's edition was published.

  • 1 Written Description of the Boundary Relating to the Yorkshire Dales National Park
    Written Description of the Boundary relating to the Yorkshire Dales National Park (Designation) (Variation) Confirmation Order 2015 Introduction This description is designed to be read in conjunction with the 1:25,000 scale maps included within the Yorkshire Dales National Park (Designation) (Variation) Confirmation Order 2015 as confirmed by the Secretary of State on 23rd day of October 2015. It does not form part of the Order but is intended to assist interpretation of the map against features on the ground. Map references in italics refer to the map numbers in the top right corner of the maps bound in with the Order. Map references within the text e.g. SD655749 are six figure Ordnance Survey Grid References. The description of the boundary proceeds round the area of the boundary variations in a clockwise direction (in line with the direction of the text in the original boundary description which accompanied the 1953 Yorkshire Dales National Park Designation Order), from the point at which it deviates from the original boundary, to the point at which it re-joins it. In line with the description of the 1953 boundary, and unless otherwise stated: where the boundary follows roads and tracks, it follows the edge of the metalled surface of the road and the edge of the track, excluding the roads and tracks themselves (there are some exceptions, as stated below); and in the case of water courses, if it is not stated whether the boundary follows the edge or the centre, the boundary follows the centre of the water course (although in this description the edge of water courses is generally stated).

  • Letter Re Planning Application for 9 Houses Dec 2016
    DRAUGHTON PARISH COUNCIL The Pines Draughton Skipton BD23 6DU 2 January 2017 Development Control Services Craven District Council 1 Belle Vue Square Skipton BD23 1FJ Attn: Ms G Kennedy Dear Sirs Application Ref: 24/2016/17616 – Land at Draughton off access road to A65 Thank you for consulting us on the above planning application, which concerns a proposed development for 9 residential dwellings off the old A65 in Draughton parish. We object to this development for the reasons set out below. Summary The area of proposed development is a field sloping down from the old A65 road into the village to the tree lined Howgill Beck below, a tributary of the River Wharfe. It is currently used as grazing land. Draughton is a small attractive village, typical of the Yorkshire Dales, with stone built properties and dry stone walls much in evidence. Its pattern of settlement is tightly knit, having been strongly influenced by the steep contours created by the valley formed by Howgill Beck. The scenic Dales landscape surrounding the village is a key feature in its setting, and one which is recognised by the widely- drawn conservation area boundary. These are the main attributes from which the locality derives its character and appearance. Against this background, there are no sites included as preferred options for housing development in Draughton in the draft Local Plan. Draughton is not regarded as a sustainable location for growth because of the lack of local amenities, facilities and infrastructure. This development will not bring any further facilities or infrastructure into the village; it will only put greater strain on the existing, very limited facilities.

  • Dear Sirs, Bradford Local Plan Reg 18 Consultation
    Dear Sirs, Bradford Local Plan Reg 18 Consultation 2021 We broadly support the points made by Andrew Wood of CPRE West Yorkshire, but make the following additional points. POLICY CONFLICT Concerning the sites selected for development in Ilkley there is a direct conflict with the policies, for example:- protecting the green belt minimising travel to work providing adequate infrastructure creating the South Pennines Regional Park maximising the benefit of YWCA funds to support brownfield development all of the changes arising from the Leeds City Region and Transport for the North. No account has been paid to the Planning White Paper which specifically protects green belt and conservation areas. GREEN BELT We have been repeatedly reassured that Green Belt is safeguarded against development by government ministers in person, through the national press and television. A great deal of emphasis is being placed on ‘weak boundaries’ to green belt. This term is meaningless and barely relevant. The boundaries are not weak. They have lasted for several decades. Using up the two indicated areas of green belt in Ben Rhydding does not in any way safeguard or make stronger the adjacent areas. It reduces the greenbelt between Burley in Wharfedale and Ben Rhydding. Describing the boundaries as weak appears to mean that the council wants to develop the sites they enclose. Describing boundaries as less durable is equally specious; they have lasted for at least 25 years and there is no case to change them. The intention of green belt is that it remains in perpetuity. Green belt is not necessarily of high landscape value.

  • PDW03193 Aireborough HG2-10
    Ref: PDW03193 HMCA\Topic: Aireborough Subject: Site in the plan Site: HG2-10 - Gill Lane, Yeadon LS19 Agree with proposed use? No Soundness Consider the plan sound? No Test of soundness addressed: Positively prepared Effective Justified Consistent with NPPF Changes required to make sound: This site should not be considered for housing as the local area, transport and services simply cannot cope with more people. Leeds City Council are just going to make the area a ghetto which people will not want to live in if this over-development continues. Leeds should be concentrating on brown field sites around the city, These may be more difficult to develop but the house building companies will still take up the sites if this is all they are offered and the Council will have the backing of its residents for this action. Issues Issue: Ecology/Landscape/Trees The site consists of open pasture / farmland which has never been developed and the land is in use by a local farmer. The site contains many ancient trees - beautiful horse chestnuts and hawthorn which are covered in blossom in spring - and hedgerows and sadly is the only open green land between Rawdon / Henshaw and Guiseley along the A65 road. It is a breath of fresh air in what has sadly become a completely built up area due Leeds City Councils planning policies which have generally ruined the area by over-development. The fields provide a home for wildlife including foxes, deer and owls - all of which I have seen myself. Issue: Conservation and heritage This site should have been included in the recently formed Nether Yeadon conservation area which is borders as it historically linked with the unique pre- industrial revolution development of the area.
