HEADED ITEM NO. 77

HEADED ITEM: P. Department

To insert additional wording in SLO 36 and SLO 58 as follows (additional text in bold): 

‘SLO 36 Enterprise Lands – Framework Plan

That prior to the commencement of development on the land zoned for enterprise and industrial development to west of the R120 and south of the Nangor Road extension shall be the subject of a framework plan that will set out the format of development having regard to mitigating and ameliorating environmental constraints including a requirement for flood risk assessment in accordance with ‘Planning System and Flood Risk Management Guidelines 2009’.

SLO 58 Enterprise Lands – Framework Plan

That prior to the commencement of development on the lands zoned for enterprise and industrial development between the R120 and Tay Lane, the lands shall be the subject of a framework plan that will set out the format of development having regard to mitigating and ameliorating environmental constraints including a requirement for flood risk assessment in accordance with ‘Planning System and Flood Risk Management Guidelines 2009’.  The development of these lands shall be contingent on the opening of a new road link between the R120 and Alymer Road to public vehicular traffic.'

Reason

It is considered that prior to any development being undertaken, the EP2 and EP3 zoned lands along the river should be assessed in order to ascertain areas for riparian zones and associated flood control measures without resorting to culverting or channelisation. It is recommended that this will take place as part of any framework plan for the future development these lands in accordance with the ‘Planning System and Flood Risk Management Guidelines 2009’.

Recommendation

That the motion be adopted.
