Policy SS2 Housing Land Provision & Distribution Please give your comments on the content of the policy and supporting text quoting the relevant paragraph numbers as appropriate and state what (if any) changes you consider are necessary

These Objectives are supported

We support the reference to Neighbourhood Plans are recognised. The phrase “where relevant” (para 2) creates some uncertainty and it is suggested that this is replaced by “where plans exist…”.

There is a lot of detail in this section and it is not easy to follow as the setting out of the history is not chronological, produces a lot of changing numbers, some apparent typos in numbers and hence some confusion. Examples are: 9770 in Appendix 1a and 9700 in the text; sites with planning permission in Appendix 1a totalling 4778 and in Appendix 1 totalling 4800.

It is critical that these facts, reasoning and conclusions are set out coherently and accurately.

The plan appears to be to over-supply needs (11704 planned v. need of 9770?) and if so this needs to be explained and justified.

The inclusion of the proposed site for 400 houses off Kedleston Road is considered inappropriate because (a) it is subject to Statutory Review and (b) developing this site contravenes many other policies in the Draft Plan (noting the Draft Local Plan includes text and policies throughout that indicate that the setting of Kedleston Hall and Park should be protected).

Policy SS3 identifies those villages with the greatest number of services and facilities are identified as ‘Key Villages’, whilst those with less facilities are identified as ‘Other Villages & Settlements’.

The criteria for deciding whether a settlement is a key village or not needs to be explained and justified.

Quarndon is included as a "Key Village", but has no shops, no Post Office, no medical facilities, no retirement or care homes, very infrequent public transport, and no safe cycling/walking links to local settlements. Duffield as a comparison is also defined as a key village and this has extensive facilities, including medical and dentist practices, secondary school, public library, a range of shops including a small mini-store, several public houses, cafes, frequent bus and rail services, etc.

Quarndon is inappropriate for significant housing development, as those areas of the Parish not already built on are: Green Belt, part of Kedleston Park, or form part of the setting of Kedleston Hall & Park. Significant development would compromise the policies relating to the foregoing. Much of the centre of Quarndon is a conservation area. If the term key village is intended to identify those communities that can support significant extra housing then Quarndon does not fall into the category

Quarndon should be classified as an “Other Village”.

It is good to see that protection of Green Belt is maintained in the Draft Plan - we support this. However, Policy SS9(e) allows for limited infilling on villages in Green Belt with no clear definition of what limited infilling is and where the limits of building would be. What and who defines “limited infilling” needs explanation.

Green belt adjoining villages provides green spaces and wildlife corridors. This clause should either be removed or caveated with further controls such as such development not having an adverse effect on amenity, landscape, heritage assets or biodiversity. As written it is difficult to see how any proposal for infill on green belt would be considered as being “limited” or not.

In paragraph 6.9.1 it is said that Green Belt boundaries should only be altered in exceptional circumstances. These exceptional circumstances should be clearly identified in advance, otherwise the risk is that any changed circumstances might be used to justify development on the Green Belt.

The wording of Policy SS9 allows a wide range of planning permissions to be granted on Green Belt land. In particular, the term “engineering operations” seems vague. Can wording be added to make plainer just what engineering operations might be allowed?

Quarndon is included as a "Key Village", but has no shops, no Post Office, no medical facilities, no retirement or care homes, very infrequent public transport, and no safe cycling/walking links to local settlements. Quarndon is inappropriate for significant housing development, as those areas of the Parish not already built on are Green Belt, part of Kedleston Park, or form part of the setting of Kedleston Hall & Park. Significant development would compromise the policies relating to the foregoing. Much of the centre of Quarndon is a conservation area. We consider Quarndon should not be classified as a key village.

The policy states that development should be located within the limits of continuous or contiguous development forming the existing built up area of a settlement. The majority of which in Quarndon is either green belt or a conservation area. There is nowhere any significant development could take place without compromising the policies relating to the foregoing.

The use of the word ”including” (just below key villages) places no limits on the type of housing development that could be considered. It is not clear as to whether this is meant to be the case, or whether the bulleted list provides those limits.

A more explicit definition of "built framework" is required in this policy. (It is presumed the same as the definition set out in 8.1.3?)

The use of the word ”including” (at the end of the village list) places no limits on the type of housing development that could be considered. It is not clear as to whether this is meant to be the case, or whether the bulleted list provides those limits.

If Kedleston Road development proceeds, the housing mix should include high quality properties and facilities suitable for elderly residents to downsize.

Policy H5 states that affordable housing development will be permitted on “rural exceptions” sites, providing that the proposals “meet a genuine local need.” The word “local” is ambiguous and should be defined more clearly. As an example, Quarndon is adjacent to Derby. Would this policy apply to developments in Quarndon to meet Derby’s housing needs?

It is good to see that Conservation Area and landscape protection has been strengthened by explicitly including hedgerows, boundaries, open spaces and views. However Policy EN5 states that the Council will “support the retention of features such as walls, hedgerows, trees and important open spaces’” This appears rather weak. Should not the policy state “ensure the retention of features such as - - - etc."



We would like all the fields between Quarndon and Duffield and Allestree recognised as a Protected Open Break because

They provide a green corridor linking Allestree Park and Kedleston They contain BAP species and Quarndon can contribute to AVBC meeting NPPF requirements to

identify and map local ecological networks

We have no specific observation on the policy itself other that we recognise that it protects the identities of the named locations by protecting open land between them. We would wish to discuss the possibility for a similar approach to be taken with Quarndon – protecting the green areas between it and Derby (Allestree) in particular. This will preserve the identity of Quarndon as well as preserve green areas, landscape and biodiversity.

We agree and support the principle of this policy.

There is however no comment as to how proposals that are visually prominent will be considered as acceptable or not – simply that they are accompanied by an assessment?

Quarndon currently lacks sufficient community open spaces for sport and recreation. The only public space is the Barn Close childrens’ playground and this is not accessible by wheelchair or footpath.We need significant improvements to our green infrastructure and will need much more if development proceeds at Kedleston Road.

Many of the policies as written are good but are often subjective and open to wide interpretation. They require subjective appraisals to be made when balancing impacts and benefits of development. This gives lack of certainty to both communities and developers. References to established published guidelines/supporting documents would be good.

The plan appears to be weak on encouraging brownfield development bowing to an inevitability that greenfield development will happen – do these policies incentivise brownfield development as much as they could? Similarly, The Plan appears to accept that the many empty properties in the Borough cannot be brought into reuse – could the Plan introduce positive incentives to bring these properties back into use?
