Proposed Submission Core Strategy and Policies Development Plan Document Review

Representation ID: 5205

Received: 05/03/2015

Respondent: Historic England

Representation Summary:

The IP-One Area contains the greatest concentration of heritage assets within the town (both designated and non-designated) and is a location that requires both conservation and change. We welcome the amendments to part (e) of Policy CS3 that requires the AAP to have policies that identify heritage assets which development proposals will need to have regard to. We note part (c) which provides a strong policy link to the Opportunity Areas contained within the AAP. It will be important that these opportunity areas contain adequate development principles relating to the historic environment (see separate representations).
