Preferred Options Site Allocations and Policies (incorporating IP-One Area Action Plan) DPD Review

Representation ID: 25843

Received: 12/03/2019

Respondent: Ravenswood Environmental Group

Representation Summary:

This site is allocated by SP3 but it doesn't particularly fall within that category. It's debatable whether this site can be delivered based on the 2007 Permission following the refusal of Reserved Matters Consent so long ago. Given that the Council's strategy for the site has been rejected by the Planning Inspectorate, it's essential that the Local Plan contains a criteria based policy saying in what circumstances a detained planning permission would be granted. The Local Plan gives decision makers no direction about the site's future. The SHELAA refers to this site as a brownfield site but is clearly greenfield.

Preferred Options Site Allocations and Policies (incorporating IP-One Area Action Plan) DPD Review

Representation ID: 26120

Received: 13/03/2019

Respondent: Ravenswood Residents Association

Representation Summary:

Cumulative impact of IP150e, IP150d and IP150a (UVW) = 254 dwellings. Recommendations:
1) To be kept informed on the plans which should reflect IBCs undertaking for 65.8% Private Housing and 34.2% Social Housing mix.
2) Additional new access/egress to Ravenswood to cope with the expected surge in traffic volumes, as already heavy congestion problems at the current /2 roundabout access point during:
- morning/ evening rush-hours
- school drop-off/ pick-up times
- lunch times - restaurant traffic particularly the McDonalds queue which blocks roundabouts and prevents traffic going to/ from the busy shopping mall, but also IMPORTANTLY any EMERGENCY VEHICLES.
