Additional site allocations of sites previously listed under policy SP3 – to be added to Table 1:

  • INSERTED: IP011a Lower Orwell Street (former Gym & Trim and formerly listed as Smart Street/Foundation Street) 0.15ha, 14 dwellings (90dph on 100% of site) (permission for student accommodation granted 25/10/11 - lapsed Oct 2014)
  • INSERTED: IP047 Land at Commercial Rd 2.86ha, 103 dwellings (90dph on 40%) as part of a mixed use scheme of 40% housing, 20% public open space and enhanced river path, 40% office, leisure, hotel (development including supermarket approved 7/2/11 – lapsed Feb 2015)
  • INSERTED: IP090 Europa Way 1.43ha, 18 dwellings (indicative masterplan), as part of a mixed use district centre (approved 11/07/11 – lapsed July 2014)
  • INSERTED: IP132 Former St Peters Warehouse Site, 4 Bridge Street, 0.18ha, 73 dwellings as part of a mixed use scheme (with B1a office use, leisure or small scale retail) (approved 14/4/11 – lapsed April 2014)
  • INSERTED: IP135 112-116 Bramford Road 0.17ha, 14 dwellings (pending application withdrawn October 2014)

Site sheets have been prepared for these allocations for inclusion in Appendix 3A.

Delete site which has a resolution to grant permission subject to a Section 106 Agreement and which needs to be safeguarded through policy SP3: DELETED: IP116 St Clement's Hospital Grounds, 227 dwellings.

Add 222 dwellings to total capacity figure of SP2 Table 1 but delete 227 dwellings:

Total DELETED: 1,934 INSERTED: 1,929

The plan baseline has been updated to 1st April 2015. The planning permissions for some sites have now lapsed or applications been withdrawn and therefore it is appropriate to allocate the sites for development.

Reference to the district centre added to IP090 to ensure the allocation through SP2 aligns with its allocation as a District Centre through policy DM21.

Capacity of IP132 Former St Peter's Warehouse increased from 48 to 73 to reflect the successful bid for the site.

Editorial update.

To update the plan baseline to 1st April 2015. The planning permission on the site IP047 has now lapsed and therefore it is appropriate to allocate the whole site, including the IP236 element, for residential-led mixed use development including public open space.

There is a resolution to grant planning permission for IP116 St Clement's Hospital Grounds, subject to a section 106, and therefore the site has been moved to policy SP3.
