Paragraph 4.5.5 and 4.5.6 Community and other non-residential uses
Any planning application will need to be informed by the range of uses already put forward for the site in the Local Plan. It is not the role of the SPD to start introducing other uses at this stage and without consultation with the community. See my other representation 31003 as to why the Women's Resources Centre has been included as part of Site R10. Why is it that space can be found to re-accommodate this use when their lease has expired yet the garages can't be re-accommodated within the site?

Sport England aims to ensure positive planning for sport, enabling the right facilities to be provided in the right places, based on assessments of need for and all sectors of the community. To achieve this our planning objectives are to PROTECT sports facilities; ENHANCE existing facilities; and PROVIDE new facilities.
Sport England, has produced 'Active Design'(2015), a guide to planning new developments to help people get more active. The guidance sets out ten principles for ensuring new developments incorporate opportunities for people to take part in physical activity. The principles promote healthy communities through good urban design.

4.5.5 to 4.5.6 Positive to see early recognition of pressure on Early Years provision and identification of solution. Would want to see this point made more forcefully if possible.

Respondent: Cllr Richard Robertson
In discussion with the local residents association in the area (PACT), when talking to people in the local community, and at the consultation meetings the view is repeatedly expressed that:
there needs to be a dedicated community facility to serve the depot and the surrounding streets to the north and west of the depot site, and
such a facility should be located at the north end of the site to serve both the new and existing housing.
The community to the north of Mill Rd (through to East Rd and New Street) have very few local facilities.
