Most Recent Information – 04/02/21:
Site Options and Assessment DRAFT Report
The Parish Council will be meeting on Monday 15th February 2021 to discuss the Site Options and Assessment DRAFT report and collate feedback for AECOM for consideration when finalising their report. Your contribution is welcomed, please forward the feedback form to the Clerk by the end of Wednesday 10th February 2021. Further information and context can be found within the feedback form itself.

History:
AECOM’s Site Assessment Team is independently assessing all identified potential sites against national criteria.
Twenty-three sites have been identified by AECOM from the 2014 SHLAA, 2017 SHELLA, the 2020 SHELAA and the original ‘call for sites’. These twenty-three sites can be found below. The site address and size of these sites can be found within the NDP Agenda Meeting Notes 07/12/20.
Site Assessments Map – Parish Site Assessments Map – Village Centre
In addition, a further ‘Call for Sites’ has been advertised, with a closing date of 31/12/20.
As a result of the further ‘Call for Sites, the Council received two responses:
- A new site, currently referred to as ‘Area B’. Further information can be found within the NDP Agenda Meeting Notes 07/12/20.
- A map and information regarding potential housing numbers in respect to land a Spencer’s Farm, areas 148a and 148b. Further information can be found in the NDP Agenda Meeting Notes 11/01/20.
AECOM will independently assess these sites and information provided alongside the above.
Subject to no delays beyond our control, the report from AECOM’s Site Assessment team will be taken to the February 2021 Parish Council meeting.
Independent Evidence Base Reviews
AECOM’s Evidence Base and Policy Development (EBPD) Team is currently independently reviewing the ‘Landscape Assessment’ (above table) and the draft policies from the ‘New Draft Oct 2019 NDP’. This review will advise Council the policies which are and are not sound against the evidence base. Comments will be used to help the next stages in the creation of a final plan.
Subject to no delays beyond our control, the report from AECOM’s EBPD team will be taken to a Parish Council meeting in February or March 2021.
