Duty to co-operate? Not specified
In the introduction at 1.4 there is a statement that the purpose of the Core Strategy is not to identify specific locations but goes on to state a perference later in the document for one particular area "north of London Road" (i.e. between London Road and Rawreth Lane) thus automatically ruling out consideration of a number of suitable alternatives identified in the "call for sites" exercise and is therefore unsound.

) P65 Para.6.3 The majority of the District's 12763 hectares of Green Belt is located in the east of the District. The preference for "north of London Rd" would see the release of a disproportionate amount of green belt land in the west of the District and therefore this statement is considered to be unsound.

Policy ENV4 - Sustainable Drainage System (SUDS)
Representation ID: 16091
Received: 29/10/2009
Respondent: Rayleigh Town Council
Legally compliant? Yes
Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? Not specified
Policy ENV4 For SUDS to be sustainable it is necessary for the Environment Agency and landowners to maintain ditches and watercourses in a satisfactory manner. This unfortunately is not the case at the moment. Without this there will undoubtedly be future flooding problems. This policy is considered to be unsound in its' present form and should be made far more robust in conjunction with ENV3

Policy CLT1 - Planning Obligations and Standard Charges

Legally compliant? Yes
Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? Not specified
Policy CLT1 It has been estimated that approximately £1billionwill be needed to make up the shortfall in infrastructure It is unrealistic to expect this to be made up by "standard charges" (as much as £300,000 per dwelling across the total number of dwellings proposed) On this basis this policy is unsound unless it includes a requirement that these plans are unsustainable without considerable Government funding.

Policy T1 - Highways
Representation ID: 16102
Received: 29/10/2009
Respondent: Rayleigh Town Council
Policy T1 whilst generally supporting this it is felt that safeguards need to be built in to this policy to ensure that $106 finance is actually used for the infrastructure improvements for which it is intended, particularly in the light of recent revelations of the loss of such monies.
