Policy H1 - The efficient use of land for housing
Representation ID: 16203
Received: 02/11/2009
Respondent: CPREssex
Legally compliant? Yes
Sound? Yes
Duty to co-operate? Not specified
The policies are unsound because the Core Strategy does not take into account the fact that the supply of brownfield sites is not static.
If further brownfield sites come forward this should trigger a review of the need to release land from the Green Belt. The Strategy needs to contain such a Police.cxc
House Policy - General
CPREssex is very concerned at the policies for new housing which state that there is a lack of brownfield sites and therefore Green Belt must be released for development. The quanity of brownfield sites is not static. More will be created during the plan period. There seems to be no consideration even in the section on monitoring that further brownfield sites may become available before or after 2021. If such sites come forward the need for Green belt sites would be reduced.
In order to reduce the amount of building on Green Belt land it is important that a constant review is maintained of all available/likely brownfield sites within or adjacent to the urban areas of the District.

Stambride Mill - CPREssex made a previouse objection to the use of this site for residential development. The site is detached from any existing settlement and with no public transport or other services would not reduce car-dependancy.
Any development would require flood protection to comply with PPS25's exceptions test.

Policy GB1 - Green Belt Protection
Representation ID: 16217
Received: 02/11/2009

Legally compliant? Yes
Sound? Yes
Duty to co-operate? Not specified
Policy GB1 is unsound as the principles of PPG2 have not been adhered to. An overall review of the Green Belt should have carried out and boundaries firmly drawn so they can be maintained.
CPREssex wishes to see the Policy wording revised to bring it into line with PPG2.
This Policy is far too weak to protect the Green Belt within the Rochford District. There appears to have been no overall review of the Green Belt boundaries or any reasoning why specific areas have been chosen for development. Why are these areas less worthy of protection? Under GB1 Risk Mitigation (p140) it states that protection of the Green Belt will be 'regulated' through the 'development management process'. This is not the way to protect the Green Belt; a Policy that has been respected and successful in its fuctions (as set out in PPG2) for many years.

Policy ENV6 - Large Scale Renewable Engergy Projects

This policy on Large Scale Renewable Energy Projects seems too be rather weak. The impact of any such development can be considerable, not only in areas already well protected, but also on the landscape/countryside in general.

CPREssex have already responded in detail to plans for the expansion of the airport. We are concerned that the creation of so many jobs is dependent on expansion of the airport and also at the concentration of employment uses in this area. The proposed employment site to the north of Aviation Way creates a very large area of employment uses concentrated in one area. This could lead to traffic problems both locally and over a wider area.
