Our approaches to strategic growth policies will be informed by the emerging sub-regional Spatial Development Strategy and supporting evidence base. Given the length of time before decommissioning takes place, and the potential for changes in circumstance and socio economic and environmental circumstance, the Council will expect to see the preferred principles for decommissioning set out along with the firm plans for the construction and operational phases. The 10 characteristics from the NDG have been used to assist in the assessment of proposed design quality.

Proposals for waste management or disposal should form an integral part of the strategic decommissioning masterplan for the Oldbury site, in accordance with emerging Local Plan 2020 policy. It is only in the development of flats where evidence has shown that it may be more difficult to meet a higher on-site target, so in these cases a 35% on-site target is set instead. Passivhaus is an international energy standard for buildings. The South Gloucestershire planners have been clear that government-set targets for housebuilding in the area CANNOT be met by development in urban areas and . These should include plans for phasing, and triggers for the delivery of key supporting infrastructure in order to secure the timely implementation of mitigation. It guides the future use and management of land in South Gloucestershire. gas boilers).
Local Plan 2020: Data and Access Profiles (DAPs) - South We are actively engaging with partners and stakeholders to identify how we can continue to target resources to those most dependent on the council and ensure equality of opportunity.By their very scale, these issues cannot be tackled in isolation and require commitment from senior leadership, direct staff resource and a comprehensive whole community approach with residents and partners. By incorporating comprehensive mitigation and adaptation measures, it is possible for new development to contribute to meeting the targets referred to in the policy on climate change. This policy will be applied in consideration of both on and off-site issues, including impacts arising as a result of the transport of radioactive waste off site.
South Gloucestershire Council on LinkedIn: Senior Planning Officers Minimise cooling demand by reducing internal heat gains e.g. In addition to topic by topic assessments, cumulative assessments will be required, including to understand the full range of effects on individual communities, through the preparation of Community Impact Assessments. These priorities will inform the councils policies and decision-making. We are required by the National Planning Policy Framework to split our policies into two types; strategic or non-strategic. Economic health South Gloucestershires Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2018 was 12,865m, ranking us 11th highest GDP of all local authorities in England outside of London. Heat pumps can also be used to provide cooling from the ground and water. We have comparable relationships with Health Trusts and Clinical Commissioning Groups to identify health and well-being priorities but also extend this co-working to Friends of community park and asset groups so that we can support community activities and classes, but also share expertise and evidence that supports a broad range of future-funding proposals. Development delivers design quality, including making a positive contribution to sustainability objectives, climate change resilience, and delivers biodiversity net gain. Creating sustainable rural villages and settlements, Local Plan 2020 Phase 1 Issues and Approaches. We have needed to find new ways to deliver services during the Covid-19 outbreak, some of which have highlighted better and more efficient ways of working. It sets out what development should happen where and protects important natural spaces, buildings and streets. South Gloucestershire is well placed to take advantage of these opportunities, and is working with the other West of England authorities to achieve resilient, healthy, communities, an enriched environment, and a successful low carbon economy. Given the importance of decommissioning, it is recognised that priority should be given to uses that facilitate the decommissioning of the existing station. Given the proximity to the estuary, due consideration must also be given to impacts on designations and protected species, including in relation to the timing of works and any potential for disturbance.

In terraced houses, space for the storage of a range of waste and recycling bins or containers, can be successfully integrated into the fronts of properties, in screened storage structures, which can also be integrated within porch canopies, also providing bike storage and electrical car-charging cables. To support engagement throughout the planning and implementation stages for a proposed NNB, the Council will: In advance of substantive pre-application engagement with the project promoter, prepare a Pre-Engagement Position Statement setting out the Councils initial views on evidence needed, constraints and opportunities in relation to the proposed development, as well as potential mitigation approaches, legacy opportunities and community benefits. This will need to include a new strategy and policies to guide and manage growth and change in. Clause 1b requires the residual heat demand of a development to be met through connection to a classified heat network or renewable heat source. For non-residential development, regulated energy use only is required to be reduced by 100%. The contribution is calculated at 95 per tonne of carbon per year for 30 years. The Assessment is expected to be undertaken by the developer as part of their Transport Assessment/Statement. In addition to contributions, the Council may also require packages of community benefits to be provided by the developer to offset and compensate the community for the burden imposed by hosting the project. Application of these priorities is subject to compliance with the criteria set out below and other relevant policy in the development plan. It will open in a separate window.
