Advice for Applicants and Agents

On 6 April 2008, the Government introduced a new and nationally consistent standard planning application form for most types of development which is known as “1APP”. This was accompanied by changes to the procedures that need to be followed for the validation of most planning applications. The County Council proposes to adopt a National and a Local List of supporting information that needs to be submitted with a planning application, to make sure it is valid for registration and is capable of being processed quickly and efficiently.

The County Council does not deal with all types of application and, therefore, validation needs should be limited accordingly. In the main, the Council deals with mineral and waste applications and applications for development which it proposes to carry out itself. These are frequently linked to its other functions, particularly for education and social care needs.

The national statutory requirements for validating applications are clearly set out by the Government and are included within the National List. This requires basic, but key information to be submitted by applicants such as the standard application form supported by location, layout and block plans and, where appropriate, elevation plans. Submission of the correct fee and appropriate certificates also form part of the National List.

The Government has also produced a list of additional requirements which local planning authorities are able to consider and adapt to meet their individual circumstances. Councils are also encouraged to consult upon and then formally adopt the Local List, to help improve the process of validating applications.

This Local List will be used in conjunction with the National List to determine whether a submitted Regulation 3 development application is valid. Each item on the list will not be necessary for every application, as the information required will vary depending on the type of application and the scale of each proposal. Applicants and agents should refer to this Local List (as well as the National List) to ascertain the precise requirements for the type of application being submitted to the County Council.

Applications for Regulation 3 development should be made using the 1APP form through the Planning Portal Website. The Council will require 3 hard copies of all documents (plans should be clearly marked (e.g. 1:200@A2) and when submitted electronically, scaled to a maximum of A3 where possible.) All electronically submitted applications should be done so in accordance with the Council‟s “Guidance to Electronic Submissions”. A checklist is available from the Council‟s Website. For complex applications, additional copies may be required to help process and determine the application more quickly. Applicants should seek advice from the Development Control team prior to submission of complex

4

applications to clarify the number of copies of the application required to carry out necessary consultations.

Help and advice is available from the Development Control team and pre-application discussions are encouraged – particularly on larger or more major schemes.

1. Planning Statement

A Planning Statement should be submitted identifying the context and need for a proposed development with an assessment of how the proposed development accords with relevant national, regional and local planning policies. It should also include details of consultations with the local planning authority and wider community/statutory consultees undertaken prior to submission. However, a separate statement on community involvement will normally be required for major development. The Planning Statement should also include a description of the development proposed including facts and figures relating to the size and scale of the proposal and associated activities. It should refer to the plans and drawings submitted in support of the application and briefly outline the supporting information which is being submitted, including that from the list of local requirements. For large scale development applications an executive summary of the information being submitted is required. Relevant Development Plan documents include the Northamptonshire Minerals Local Plan 2003-2016 (May 2006); Northamptonshire Waste Local Plan 2003-2016 (March 2006); East Midlands Regional Plan (March 2009); North Northamptonshire Core Spatial Strategy (June 2008); and Saved Policies in Northamptonshire‟s District and Borough Local Plans. 2. Air Quality Assessment Air Quality Assessment (AQAs) will be required for all proposals that impact on air quality through odour, dust or bio-aerosol or are potential pollutants. These should be supported by an air quality assessment, which indicates any change in air quality that is likely to result from the proposed development. It should also outline appropriate mitigation measures. Air quality assessment may also need to consider the potential impact of existing facilities and infrastructure (such as water treatment plants) on proposed developments.

Further advice on the preparation and requirements for these documents, including scoping, may be obtained from your local District Council Environmental Health Department.

Planning Policy Statement 23: Planning and Pollution Control; and Annex 1: Pollution Control, Air and Water Quality provide guidance. 3. Archaeology An archaeological assessment will be required for all developments which could affect archaeological remains. This is particularly relevant for development of „green field‟ sites. The minimum initial requirement is for a desktop assessment but this may result in the need for a more detailed evaluation which could include a range of techniques including geophysical surveying and commonly, trial excavation trenches. For further advice, contact

9

the Development Control team at the earliest opportunity before the application is submitted. Planning Policy Guildance 16: Archaeology and Planning sets out national policy and there is further advice in the CBI Archaeological Investigations Code of Practice (1991). 4. Daylight/Sunlight Assessment Where there is a potential adverse impact upon the current levels of sunlight/daylight enjoyed by adjoining properties or building(s), including associated gardens or amenity space, then applications may need to be accompanied by a daylight/sunlight assessment. Further guidance is provided in, for example, BRE guidelines on daylight assessments. 5. Design Statement Applications for all Regulation 3 development are required to address the implementation of sustainable development design and identify practical measures for implementation. All proposals for Regulation 3 development must prepare and submit a Design Statement to accompany the planning application. The Design Statement may form a component of the Design and Access Statement, or where appropriate a component of the Supporting Statement or where applicable the EIA Environmental Statement. 6. Dust, mud and debris on the highway and Litter Development likely to generate dust should be accompanied by a dust impact assessment and action plan. Measures should also be put forward to prevent the tracking or deposit of mud and debris on to the highway. 7. Environmental Impact Statement The Town and County Planning (Environmental Impact Assessment) (England and Wales) Regulations 1999 set out the circumstances in which an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is required. An EIA is required to accompany all applications for Schedule 1 developments and may be required for Schedule 2 developments. The County Council will screen all applications submitted to determine if it is EIA development. However, to avoid any delays on EIA development it is advised that applicants for developments should request a „Screening Opinion‟ from the Council before submitting. Where EIA is required the applicant can also submit a request for a „Scoping Opinion‟ under the Regulations for clarification of the information required.

10

Applicants submitting applications of a size or scale close to the EIA guidance requirements are encouraged to voluntarily submit an Environmental Statement. 8. Ecology / Protected Species / Biodiversity Survey & Report Where there is a reasonable likelihood that a proposed development would have impacts on wildlife and biodiversity, information should be provided on existing biodiversity interests and possible impacts on them to allow full consideration of those impacts. Where proposals are being made for mitigation and/or compensation measures, information to support those proposals will be needed. The development and implementation of mechanisms should be sought to ensure that development results in no net loss of Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) habitats and species and that net gain is achieved. Where appropriate, accompanying plans should indicate any significant wildlife habitats or features and the locations of any habitats of species protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, the Conservation (Natural Habitats etc) Regulations 1994 or the Protection of Badgers Act 1992. Applications for development in the countryside that will affect areas designated for their biodiversity interests should include assessments of the impacts and contain proposals for long term maintenance and management. This information might form part of an Environmental Statement, where one is necessary.

Government planning policies for biodiversity are set out in Planning Policy Statement 9: Biodiversity and Geological Conservation (PPS9). PPS9 is accompanied by a Government Circular: Biodiversity and Geological Conservation – Statutory Obligations and their impact within the planning system.

9. Flood Risk Assessment

At the planning application stage an appropriate Flood Risk Assessment (FRA) will be required to demonstrate how flood risk from all sources of flooding to the development itself and flood risk to others will be managed now and taking climate change into account. Planning applications for development proposals of 1 hectare or greater in Flood Zone 1 and all proposals for new development located in Flood Zones 2 and 3 should be accompanied by an FRA. For information on Flood Risk see the Environment Agency website. The assessment should demonstrate how surface water from the site would be managed. This information might form part of an Environmental Statement, where one is necessary.

Planning Policy Statement 25: Development and Flood Risk provides comprehensive guidance for both local planning authorities and applicants in relation to the undertaking of flood risk assessments.

11

10. Foul Sewerage Assessment

Where the development includes a discharge of foul sewerage an assessment should include a description of the type, quantities and means of disposal of any trade waste or effluent should be provided. All new buildings need separate connections to foul and storm water sewers. If an application proposes to connect a development to the existing drainage system then details of the existing system should be shown on the application drawings and evidence supplied to demonstrate that the existing infrastructure can cope with the additional load. 11. Geotechnical Appraisal A geotechnical study should be provided where a proposed development may have potential impacts on the underlying geology or stability of the site or land adjacent to it. Where proposals are being made to support existing unstable ground, information on the mitigation and/or compensation measures will be needed. Relevant guidance can be found in Planning Policy Guidance 14 (PPG14): Development on Unstable Land (1990). 12. Health Impacts

The potential health impacts of a proposed development is capable of being a material planning consideration, in so far as it arises from or may affect any land use. Where these circumstances arise, an assessment of the effects on health is required to support the planning application.

Guidance can be found in Planning Policy Statement 23: Planning and Pollution Control. 13. Heritage Assessment (including historical features and Scheduled Ancient Monuments) / Conservation Area Appraisal A heritage assessment will be required in respect of proposals impacting upon listed buildings and their settings, Scheduled Ancient Monuments and their settings, historic parks and gardens and the disturbance of ground within an area of archaeological interest. A statement should include plans showing historic features that may exist on or adjacent to the application site including listed buildings and structure, historic parks and gardens and historic battlefields. There should be no overall net loss of natural and cultural assets, and opportunities should be sought to achieve a net gain across the region. Applications within a Conservation Area will require the submission of a Conservation Area Appraisal considering the character of the Conservation Area and the impact that the proposed development would have, unless previously advised in writing by the County Planning Authority that a Conservation Area Appraisal was not required.

12

Advice is contained in Planning Policy Guidance 15: Planning and the Historic Environment and Planning Policy Guildance 16: Archaeology and Planning.

14. Hydrological and Hydrogeological Assessment

Consideration should be given to the proximity of vulnerable surface and ground water. Geological conditions and the behaviour of surface water and ground water should be assessed for the site and surrounding area. A surface water drainage assessment should include a description of the type, quantities and means of storage/disposal of any surface water run off. Scale plans of the drainage arrangements will also need to be provided. See Planning Policy Statement 23: Planning and Pollution Control and Planning Policy Statement 25: Development and Flood Risk for further reference. Where the development has the potential to impact upon hydrology and hydrogeology the application should be accompanied by assessments of these potential impacts and proposals for their mitigation. 15. Land Contamination Assessment / Contamination Risk Assessment Certain applications may need to be accompanied by a land contamination assessment which should include an extended assessment of contamination in line with Planning Policy Statement 23: Planning and Pollution Control. Where contamination is known or suspected or the proposed use would be particularly vulnerable, the applicant should provide such information with the application as is necessary to determine whether the proposed development can proceed without risk of pollution. 16. Landscape Assessment Where development has an impact on the wider landscape, the applicant must demonstrate, through a strategic landscape assessment, the capacity of the natural environment to absorb the proposal. The appraisal should also provide a context for decision on appropriate scale, form and layout and determine which landscape features need to be protected or enhanced. Detailed site appraisal may provide information on hydrology, microclimate, soils, plant communities, historic features and all visual qualities including views and vistas. Design solutions should demonstrate clearly how the strategic assessment and site appraisal have informed the detailed design of development and planting proposals. 17. Landscaping Details Landscaping details should include proposals for long term maintenance and landscape management and should follow from the design concept in the Design and Access Statement. Existing trees and other vegetation should, where practicable, be retained in new developments and protected during the construction of the development. Plans should clearly annotate existing vegetation to be retained or removed. The scheme of landscaping and tree planting submitted should give detail of inter alia grass mixtures and the

13

number, species, heights on planting and positions of all trees and shrubs and provide a management plan detailing future maintenance. 18. Lighting Assessment Proposals involving the provision of publicly accessible developments, in the vicinity of residential property, a Listed Building or Conservation Area, or open countryside, where external lighting would be provided or made necessary by the development should be required to be accompanied by details of external lighting (including LUX) and the proposed hours of its use. These details shall include a layout plan with beam orientation and a schedule of the equipment in the design. Lighting in the Countryside: Towards Good Practice is a source of guidance. 19. Minerals Safeguarding

Mineral resources are finite and can only be worked where they occur. Increased land use pressure in the UK can result in mineral resources becoming sterilised by other forms of development. Mineral safeguarding can help avoid this unnecessary sterilisation and help ensure supplies for the future. It can also allow the planning system to retain the flexibility to identify sites which have the least impact on the environment.

Where non-mineral development is proposed within a Minerals Safeguarding Area it will be necessary to demonstrate that the sterilisation of proven mineral resources of economic importance will not occur as a result of the development, and that the development would not pose a serious hindrance to future extraction in the vicinity. If this cannot be proven, prior extraction of the mineral resource may be sought.

Further information can be found in Minerals Planning Statement 1: Planning and Minerals and Minerals Planning Statement 1: Good Practice Guide. 20. Noise Impact Assessment Application proposals that have the potential to raise noise should be supported by a noise impact assessment prepared by a suitably qualified acoustician. Further guidance is provided in Planning Policy Guidance 24: Planning and Noise. 21. Parking & Access Arrangements Where additional vehicle movements are proposed, applications will be required to provide details of existing and proposed parking provision and access arrangements. These details could also be shown on a site layout plan.

14

22. Photographs/Photomontages These provide useful background information and can help to show how large developments can be satisfactorily integrated within the landscape or street scene. The integrity of all photographs and photomontages should be maintained. These are likely to be useful to support a landscape assessment. 23. Planning Obligations – Draft Head(s) of Terms (s.106 Town and Country Planning Act 1990) Planning obligations, or Section 106 Agreements, (in the form of agreements or unilateral undertakings) are private agreements secured between local planning authorities and potential developers. They are intended to make development which might otherwise not be able to proceed, acceptable in terms of infrastructure provision. The County Council uses such agreements where appropriate and will normally require the only the proposed „Heads of Terms‟ (the key points to be included) to be submitted with the application. Further advice on planning obligations is available in Circular 05/2005, Planning Obligations which was published in July 2005. A model Section 106 Agreement is also available. Planning obligations practice guidance and the model section 106 agreement can be found on the Department of Communities and Local Government (DCLG) website. 24. Playing Fields and Recreational Facilities Existing open space, sports and recreational buildings and land should not be built on unless an assessment has been undertaken which has clearly shown the open space or the buildings and land to be surplus to requirements.

An assessment to demonstrate whether the land or buildings are surplus to requirement should therefore be submitted for consideration. Planning Policy Guidance 17 (PPG17): Planning for Open Space, Sport and Recreation. To enable Sport England to assess any application they require information as set out in paragraph 2.3 of Sport England‟s Consultation arrangements for local authorities with regard to development that affects playing fields (2006). 25. Public Rights of Way The submitted statement should include plans showing existing public rights of way within or adjacent to the application sire. Details of any proposed or current diversions or temporary closures of the rights of way should be provided. Any proposed new rights of way should be included and shown on plans.

15

26. Renewable Energy and Climate Change The County Council wishes to encourage the use of renewable energy. The technologies now available for the small-scale generation of renewable energy make it easier for developments to incorporate the production of renewable energy. Major applications should be supported by a statement which explains how a development proposal seeks to address these key issues and how it will contribute to reducing the use of non-renewable resources. Climate change and the way that planning can help address future challenges is becoming and increasingly important planning consideration and the Government published Planning Policy Statement: Planning and Climate Change, a supplement to PPS1 in December 2007 in recognition of this.

Proposals should design environmental performance into the development in accordance with paragraphs 41 and 42 of the supplement. These principles should be incorporated into the Design and Access Statement. Documents relevant to show the impact of the development on climate change may be required, such as:

a) carbon footprint; b) water conservation strategy and resources management; c) any sustainable design and construction methods; and d) renewable energy statement

27. Statement of Community Involvement Major applications will need to be supported with a statement setting out how the applicant has complied with the requirements for pre-application consultation set out in chapter 4 of Northamptonshire County Council‟s adopted Statement of Community Involvement and demonstrating how the views of the local community have been sought and taken into account in the formulation of development proposals. 28. Structural Survey A structural survey may be required in support of an application if the proposal involves substantial demolition. 29. Transport Assessment Planning Policy Guidance 13: Transport advises that a Transport Assessment (TA) should be submitted as part of any planning application where the proposed development has significant transport implications. The coverage and detail of the TA should reflect the scale of the development and extent of the transport implications of the proposal. For smaller schemes, the TA should simply outline the transport aspects of the application, while for major proposals the TA should illustrate accessibility to the site by all modes of

16

transport. It should give details of proposed measures to improve access by public transport, walking and cycling, to reduce the need for parking associated with the proposal, and to mitigate transport impacts. The TA should specify the maximum and average daily lorry movements generated by the development.

Further guidance will be found in Guidance on Transport Assessment, published by the Department of Transport or from the Local Highway Authority. 30. Travel Plan A travel plan should be submitted alongside planning applications which are likely to have significant transport implications, as advised by Planning Policy Guidance 13: Transport, paragraphs 87-91. Further advice is available in, Using the Planning Process to Secure Travel Plans: Best Practice Guide (ODPM and DfT, 2002), also Making Residential Travel Plans Work: Good Practice Guidelines for New Development (DfT) and A Guide to Development Related Travel Plan (Addison and Associates). 31. Tree and Hedgerow Survey/Arboricultural Report Where there are trees and hedgerows within the application site, or on land adjacent to it that could influence or be affected by the development (including street trees), information will be required on which trees and hedgerows are to be lost/retained and the means of protecting them during construction works. This information should be prepared by a suitably qualified person. Full guidance on the survey information, protection plan and method statement that should be provided with an application is set out in the current BS5837 “Trees in relation to construction – Recommendations”.

Where hedgerows are to be removed, an assessment under the requirements of the Hedgerow Regulations 1997 (Statutory Instrument 1997, No. 1160), will be required to be submitted.

32. Utilities Statement

A utilities statement should include how a development proposal connects/will connect to existing utility infrastructure systems, bearing in mind capacities and environment/archaeological impact. Most new development requires connection to existing utility services, including electricity and gas, telecommunications and water supply, and also needs connection to foul and surface water drainage and disposal.

17

Utilities statements should demonstrate:

a) that the availability of utility services has been examined and that the proposal would not result in undue stress on the delivery of those services to the wider community;

b) that proposals incorporate any utility company requirements for substations, telecommunications equipment or similar structures;

c) that service routes have been planed to avoid as far as possible the potential for damage to trees and archaeological remains.

33. Waste Audit and Waste Management Facilities Strategy Applications for all developments are required to address site waste management, including waste minimisation measures and management methods to be employed for wastes generated, as well as identifying the capacity for integrating design for deconstruction and practical measures to be implemented. Further guidance is available in Northamptonshire Minerals and Waste Development Framework's Development & Implementation Principles Supplementary Planning Document (Adopted March 2007).
