London Southend Airport & Environs Joint Area Action Plan Issues & Options Paper

5.1 Introduction

Representation ID: 1418

Received: 25/07/2008

Respondent: Go-East

Representation Summary:

Notwithstanding the above, we think that it would have been helpful for the Issues and Options document to have included in the main body of text, a summary of the sustainability effects of each of the different options in terms of their impacts on the social, economic and environmental baselines. The authority should consider, in submitting the final DPD, creating a clear 'audit trail' between the SA report and the JAAP.

Representation ID: 1419

Received: 25/07/2008

Respondent: Go-East

Representation Summary:

If the environmental information in the tables that accompany each 'Scenario' is drawn from the SA then this needs to be made more explicit.

At submission, the Authority will need to demonstrate that the plan and policies represent the most appropriate response in all the circumstances, having considered all relevant alternatives, and that they are founded on a robust and credible evidence base. These are important soundness tests.

5.1 Introduction

Representation ID: 1420

Received: 25/07/2008

Respondent: Go-East

Representation Summary:

We consider that the Scenarios that have been set out in the JAAP document are both discreet and expressed clearly utilising text, a spatial plan of each scenario and tables. However, we do feel that overall there is quite a lot of duplication of basic details in the document. Some of the background, evidence base or baseline assessment information that is set out comprehensively in Section 2, also seems to be duplicated either in whole or part in Sections 4 and 5.

5.1 Introduction

Representation ID: 1422

Received: 25/07/2008

Respondent: Go-East

Representation Summary:

Consideration should be given to reducing the amount of repetition when in due course the Submission Plan is prepared. This ought to be fairly straightforward to achieve, given that the emphasis should then be on the strategy being proposed with only brief references being made to the options/scenarios that have been discounted.

6.1 The process for preparing the JAAP

Representation ID: 1423

Received: 25/07/2008

Respondent: Go-East

Representation Summary:

Whilst a statement is made in the JAAP document to the effect that the strategy will be deliverable, we are concerned especially in relation to whether some of the proposals in the High Growth option are realistic and therefore capable of being implemented given the constraints that exist. Paragraph 4.36 of PPS 12 states that a Core Strategy (or other Development Plan document: 'Must be the most appropriate strategy when considered against the reasonable alternatives."

6.1 The process for preparing the JAAP

Representation ID: 1424

Received: 25/07/2008

Respondent: Go-East

Representation Summary:

Only a very brief reference is made in the document to the relationship between potential Southend Airport expansion plans with the issues outlined in the Future of Air Transport White Paper. The text in the JAAP states that whilst the White Paper acknowledges the role smaller airports have to play in the future provision of airport capacity, environmental consequences need to be considered and there is a need to find a sustainable way forward.

6.1 The process for preparing the JAAP

Representation ID: 1425

Received: 25/07/2008

Respondent: Go-East

Representation Summary:

We would suggest that the JAAP should perhaps not be putting forward any options or scenarios, especially those relating to the expansion of the airport, that may be wholly unrealistic given the environmental constraints that exist in respect of the land within the plan boundaries and indeed beyond these. As the JAAP document also states, the East of England Plan recognises the important role Southend Airport plays at the Regional level and that this is primarily in meeting local needs and niche markets.

Representation ID: 1426

Received: 25/07/2008

Respondent: Go-East

Representation Summary:

The JAAP should perhaps seek to establish the actual environmental capacity that in fact exists at this location and therefore allows for a defined level of growth, linked to the regeneration of the airport, rather than putting forward at least one option that seeks to optimise and maximise the airport's economic and development potential in full recognition of certain adverse environmental consequences.

Received: 25/07/2008

Respondent: Go-East

Representation Summary:

Whilst it is suggested in the JAAP that the high growth option would release funds for the mitigation of some environmental impacts and allow environmental improvements to occur, there are some impacts that cannot so easily be overcome, if indeed they can be overcome at all.
