Response for SN1012 - Mill Field, Mill Road

There is enough entrance space to the plot not to need to remove any of the trees or hedges to create the entrance. Also if unsafe walking has been put as a reason, surely all the property's on the road will all have unsafe walking. Not just this plot. Traffic wise, the new industrial buildings that have been constructed on this road would cause more traffic than this plot would do.

Site SN1012, being Mill Field, Mill Road is a site with development value. The site provides good connections on to the highway network and is well connected/represented to other local developments and housing sites. It is therefore wrong to reject it on the grounds provided above.

The comments regarding vegetation loss is inappropriate and any development can incorporate and protect natural habitat and capital through carefully considered master planning and landscaping.

There is enough entrance space and visibility.
Unsafe walking - citing this means all the properties on Mill Road have unsafe walking?
The new industrial buildings will create more traffic than this small plot, these industrial buildings are also not in keeping with the residential properties along Mill Rd but didn't seem to prevent erection of a massive group of grey buildings, set back with huge amounts of potential vehicle movement.
Make use of this plot of land for much needed and anticipated family housing.

Key points-
HIGHWAY NETWORK SUB-STANDARD-UNFOUNDED As Mill Road capable of dual traffic. All the other sites would have to use single track roads at some point.
NO SAFE WALKING ROUTE TO SCHOOL-UNFOUNDED As there's a perfectly safe well used footpath directly from the side into the main village and all the amenities.
POOR ACCESS AT EACH JUNCTION END - UNFOUNDED As traffic from other preferred sites would use these junction to access amenities.
LINEAR PATTERN - All recent developments have not been linear patterns.
REMOVAL OF SIGNIFICANT EXSISTING TREE AND HEDGES - No vegetation to be removed unless deemed unsafe.

SN1012 - I fully support this application. No trees or hedgerows shall be damaged unless deemed a danger to the public, this is a false statement. The road and junction is used everyday for the commute to work by 4 family members and there is a perfectly good, safe footpath leading to safe pavements to access the school. Whilst away from the main hub of the village it is still within the village settlement with housing on either side of Mill Field.

Response To SN1012 - Mill Field, Mill Road
Mill road is wide enough to take dual traffic and the site has good connections to the main highway network.
The site entrance has good visibility off Mill road and is wide enough without the need to remove existing trees or hedgerow.
Unsafe walking is the same for every house along Mill road. This site has the benefit of an adjacent footpath which connects to the main settlement.
The parcel of land if developed would be an infill between existing properties and would not look out of character with the surrounding area.

Re SN0433. This site would continue the limited development along Wheel Road, which is the main east-west cross road through the village, and would be an attractive site, and not detrimental to Stacey Cottage, which is at some distance. While questioning the need to remove the WHOLE of the roadside hedge, it prevents any appreciation of the landscape, and makes that section of the road dangerous for drivers and walkers, as it is impossible to see round the bend opposite Fortune Green; a more open aspect would be beneficial. An improved junction at Reeder's Lane would also improve safety.

The Bergh Apton Parish Council is impressed by the thoroughness of the review of the sites put forward for development in Bergh Apton.
The extensive Parkland to the north of Cooke's Road and Threadneedle Street is a very important feature of the village. The Parish Council are grateful that its heritage has been recognised in the review.

The following sites should be considered for low density development (1-3 dwellings per site) and a similar scale to the surrounding properties -
SN2117,
SN0122,
SN0533 (which might be suitable for starter homes similar to the cottages and the part-ownership properties on this road),
SN0203,
SN2015.
Add that hedgerows should be planted or maintained, a 20 mph to The Street, 30mph for Threadneedle Street and part of Cookes Road to slow traffic in lieu of footpaths.
These sites, in addition to site SN0412, would maintain the village aesthetic without overwhelming any one area or being detrimental to neighbouring properties.

we believe Site SN1012 - Mill Field should be included in the settlement boundary extension so as to benefit from the amenities that are located on the northern side of Mill Road. If the officer feels the entire site does not follow the existing linear pattern, at least the southern half of the site fronting Mill Road should be included in the proposed settlement boundary. It presents an ideal opportunity to make it conform to NPPF Policy 79 – supporting local services.
Mill Field site is outside but adjacent to the current settlement boundary to the south. The site also adjoins a number of residential properties to the north fronting mill road.

SN0433 - The Environmental Protection Team are not aware of any significant land quality issue with this site or adjacent land. However, having regard to the size of the site and sensitivity of the proposed development it is considered that a Phase One Land Contamination Report (Desk Study) should be required as part of any planning application.

The site is adjacent to the Wheel Of Fortune PH which has a potential to have a negative impact on the amenity of the residents of any dwellings constructed on the site due to noise and cooking odours. In addition, placing sensitive receptors close to this business could impact its future viability. It is therefore considered that this will need to be addressed as part of any application for dwellings on this site.

Due to the size of this development and its proximity to existing dwellings, an application to develop this site is likely to attract the recommendation that standard planning condition AM05 Construction Management Plan be attached to any approval. It may be worth highlighting to applicants that to avoid any delay in discharging this condition, they may wish to include a Construction Management Plan with their application. If the submitted Construction Management Plan is adequate, the an alternative condition could be attached to any approval requiring its implementation.
