Response to consultation on Pre-Submission Draft Uttlesford Local Plan (Regulation 19) The Deputy Leader agreed that paragraph 55 of the response should be amended as below:
"55 Paragraph 152 of the NPPF in regard to plan
making states that local planning authorities should seek
opportunities to achieve each of the economic, social, and
environmental dimensions of sustainable development and states
that: ‘Significant adverse impacts on any of these dimensions
should be avoided and, wherever possible, alternative options which
reduce or eliminate such impacts should be pursued’. However
a number of significant harms regarding the NUGC have been
identified in regard to transport and landscape. In terms of
landscape and visual impact, the proposed allocation would not be
acceptable unless Uttlesford District
Council can demonstrate convincingly (a) a means by which
If addressing landscape and visual harm results in a reduced number of homes, the option to extend the southern boundary of the allocation could be considered. The examination of the Regulation 19 Local Plan will need to establish that there are no reasonable alternative options to accommodate development which would eliminate the harms identified to the three dimensions of sustainable development or that the level of harm can be satisfactorily mitigated."
This decision was first published on Friday 3 August and so the deadline for call-in is Friday 10 August at 5pm. If not called-in this decision can be implemented on Monday 13 August. |
