New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021
Q11. Do you agree we should require development to source a percentage of their energy from low-carbon and renewable sources? Are there other opportunities in the District to supply low-carbon or renewable energy?

Yes – It is almost the norm for developments to source 10% of energy from low carbon sources. Within the district, solar farms would be the most popular choice for communal low carbon energy

Q12. Do you agree we should require new development to achieve energy efficiency standards higher than building regulations? What level should these be set at?

No – achieving current build regulations and energy standards at M4(2), M4(3) and BREEAM Very Good is extremely challenging from a build perspective using current methods common in the UK. Until build technology catches up with the energy efficiency requirements of new build properties, increased efficiency measures will be challenging to achieve.

Q16b. If yes, do you think it is more appropriate to have a single design guide/code for the whole District, or to have design guides/codes/masterplans for individual settlements or growth areas?

The design guides/ code should share core principles, but different locations will need to have different codes as different areas will need different guidance due to character assets, heritage, community need, etc, so will impact housing typologies, tenures, landscaping, biodiversity gain, etc.

Q18. With reference to your preferred Strategy Option, are there areas or sites in Rochford that you feel require a specific approach to housing types, size and tenure? What is required to meet housing needs in these areas?

The settlement of Hullbridge, the rural areas in particular, have an unmet social housing need prescribed by the Rochford District Councillors as 1000 people. Therefore, a preferred site/ option should allow for a high proportion or 100% affordable dwellings to respond to local community needs.

Rochford District Council should also be preparing for the provision of its elderly residents, as the district (like the UK) has an ageing population. Any sites proposing Assisted Living facilities or care homes should take precedent above others.

1 – Meeting future needs by allocating existing and new employment sites for specific employment uses (although this may become difficult under the new use classes).
4 – Meeting future needs by prioritising the delivery of new delivery of new employment space alongside any new strategic housing developments (start-up businesses centres/ co-working spaces or planning for live-work units).
10 – working with partners to secure the delivery of ultra-fast connectivity across the district, including fibre-to-the-premises and mobile networks.

Q31. Do you consider net gains for biodiversity are best delivered on-site or off-site? Are there specific locations or projects where net gain projects could be delivered?

A mixed approach for increasing net biodiversity onsite and offsite is best and most practical. The development proposed at CFS 015 is capable of achieving a 10% biodiversity net gain, so should be considered as a preferred option.
