POSITION STATEMENTS\JACKY - AMENDED\JS_ SHARPNESS - STROUD POSITION STATEMENT FINAL ISSUE.DOCX Stroud District Council Stroud Infrastructure Delivery Plan Sharpness Strategic Allocation (SA5) Infrastructure Position Statement 1 Summary of Infrastructure Risk 1.1 Purpose of Position Statement This statement has been produced to set out the current position in terms of infrastructure requirements for the proposed Site Allocation at Sharpness (SA5). The statement draws upon a number of resources including the 2014 Infrastructure Delivery Plan, planning application supporting material and detailed discussions with service providers undertaken during February 2016. Through this process, this document identifies known risks to the delivery of infrastructure and create a strategy to mitigate these risks. It has not been possible to discuss infrastructure requirements with the Canal & River Trust as part of this process. Arup has undertaken an updating exercise of the infrastructure requirements for the Strategic Allocations to reflect the fact that a number of the sites have advanced masterplan and viability assessments since Local Plan Adoption in November 2015. Pre application discussions are now actively being pursued therefore infrastructure requirements to support the proposals are better understood by infrastructure providers and developers. The costing information gathered through this exercise will importantly feed into the updating of the 2013 Plan Viability Study to support the preparation of the revised Preliminary Draft CIL charging schedule for Stroud. The Position Statements will also inform the identification of priority infrastructure for the Regulation 123 list that will accompany the CIL Charging Schedule once adopted. The Statement does not seek to present a comprehensive cost plan for all on-site and off- site infrastructure required for each Strategic Allocation. It seeks to identify the strategic infrastructure requirements and financial contributions that will have been identified as critical, essential or desirable infrastructure to manage the impacts of the Strategic Allocation on service provision within Stroud and the wider Gloucestershire area. Normal site development infrastructure such as potable water network connections, electricity supply diversions, primary and secondary highways internally within the Strategic Allocation or onsite SUDS solutions are not specified or costed. Typical on-site development costs for infrastructure fundamental to delivery have been used within the appraisals for each Strategic Allocation informing the update of the 2013 Plan Viability Study. Through discussions with service providers we have sought to identify those infrastructure projects that are considered essential to mitigate the impacts arising from the development and make each Strategic Allocation acceptable in planning terms. These would be priority projects for planning obligations. The exercise has also identified desirable infrastructure that may contribute towards functionality or attractiveness of the District as a place to live. These items are unlikely to prevent development in the short to medium term. The process has also sought to identify the responsibility for delivery and funding route. This information is set out in the Infrastructure Project Tracker below. Where information has not been available, reflecting scheme development, infrastructure needs, triggers and costs have been estimated. The information will be used to inform the CIL examination, setting of the Regulation 123 list for the CIL Charging Schedule and prioritisation process for funds secured through CIL once in place. The summary table overleaf summarises the estimated headline costs for infrastructure obligations via S106 or CIL over the period of the scheme delivery. | Final Issue | April 2016 Page 2 J:\247XXX\247531-00\4.50_REPORTS\3.
