Again, these matters are already covered by the Building Regulations, and as such do not need to be addressed in a policy which goes beyond these. The Building Regulations will apply, and developers will need to adhere to these, securing climate resilient design with or without a development plan policy on this.

It is noted that the policy seeks to introduce a climate change checklist for South Warwickshire, which will need to be completed and submitted as part of planning applications. Further details should be provided on what this checklist covers, whether in the policy or within the supporting text. In addition, there should be a clear justification for referencing this within the policy, and the requirements which will need to be met. The checklist must not place onerous requirements on developers which exceed the requirements of the Building Regulations.

Taylor Wimpey supports the consideration of climate change and resilience in the design of new development.
As part of new design, we give consideration to preventing overheating through application of the colling hierarchy as noted, focussing on passive design measures in the first instance. This can include design, orientation and tree planting.
The application of any specific targets which go beyond the requirements of the Building Regulations or national guidance needs to be fully considered as part of the Plan evidence base and viability assessment.

Why is this section not incorporated into Section 7.4?

The Cooling Hierarchy in Draft Policy G is in conflict with Section 7.4 and Policy Direction 22. When you have True Zero and an airtightness less than 3 you need MVHR. How will Green roofs work in terms of the need for PV. Consider Brise Soleil and shutters on the outside of windows - learn from mainland Europe.

When you refer to changes to Building Regulations, do you mean Future Homes Standard?

The reductions mentioned will not deliver net zero. See my comments on DPD 22. Not all non-domestic buildings have the same reduction.

Agree with the statement that sustainable design and construction standards for new developments will help lower emissions but when are they going to be introduced? Surely this is part of Section 7.4. You mention overheating but what about the impacts of increased flooding?

The Estate fully support ‘Draft Policy G – Climate Resilient Design’. As a manager of many properties both in residential and business use, the Estate are fully abreast of the importance of ensuring that any new built form is designed and built to achieve net zero carbon. In addition, any existing buildings where possible should be made more energy efficient, reducing the reliance on fossil fuels and in their replacement, include low carbon energy efficient measures.
