The Inspectors have raised significant concerns in relation to the Council’s Sustainability Appraisal and site assessment process. This reflects concerns we have expressed previously about the way in which a new settlement at Beadlow Manor was assessed and its omission of as a reasonable option in the SA report.
The Council has Council has commissioned further SA work but the Beadlow new settlement is still not identified as a reasonable option. In the absence of an assessment by the Council, DLA Town Planning has undertaken its own assessment using the Council’s criteria and findings as a reference point. The findings show the Beadlow scheme to be among the best of the options available when assessed as the Council as assessed other proposals.
The significant contributions to infrastructure investment (including highway and education) made possible through the Beadlow development warrant serious consideration, particularly as the Council’s current strategy fails to address these key infrastructure deficiencies.
