Water distribution and waste water sewerage work mainly on gravity. I'm aware the current provision does not have the capacity for existing facilities and it would therefore be preferable if Severn Trent Water were consulted on this matter. To get this wrong would be very costly and inexcusable and the environment and local habitat would suffer. Any new infrastructure should be paid for by the developers as part of the tender package.

The NPPF emphasises the necessity for sufficient infrastructure to meet the demands of new developments. While it's acknowledged that an adequate water supply is essential, it's expected that water providers, such as Severn Trent, undertake requisite upgrades to guarantee reliable services. Policy wording should expect for water providers to enhance their infrastructure in areas of growth.

Directing development solely based on current water infrastructure investment is neither justifiable nor acceptable, especially for new settlements.

The requirement for development to mitigate any increase in surface water runoff with SuDS is supported, along with ensuring that there is adequate water supply resulting from any development proposals. However, the latter is a legal obligation for statutory undertaker (i.e. Severn Trent) who must cater for new development.

Agree with reservations on point 2. Limiting new water infrastructure will restrict large-scale development in Strategic Growth locations. Drainage and sewage systems must be upgraded before new homes are built to prevent raw sewage and flooding issues. In Bishop’s Tachbrook, infrastructure strain from Oakley Meadow’s 150 homes caused severe backups on Kingsley Road, particularly affecting Kingsley Court. Mallory Road residents have faced repeated wastewater overflows, impacting gardens and communal spaces. The lack of capacity in the existing system is seriously affecting residents’ health and well-being.

We must have robust and auditable planning enforcement in place prior to any plans being approved. On our own development we were assured by the developers that all land drains were put in place, per the plans. On digging, no such drainage system exists. Stratford District Council does not have the resources to pursue this with the builder (Crest Nicholson).

We support Draft Policy I, which requires development proposals to ensure that there is adequate water supply to serve new development and also requires the use of suitably designed SuDS schemes to manage surface water runoff.

We consider that the SG15 Strategic Growth Option is capable of achieving an adequate water supply to serve new development in this location. Jubb has produced a Flood Risk, Drainage and Water Supply Review (Appendix 3) which provides details of engagement with Severn Trent Water (STW) on this matter. It is anticipated that the wider SG15 development proposals can be provided with a new potable water supply from the existing local STW infrastructure which runs throughout the area. STW have also confirmed that the existing supply main within the A429, which roughly bisects SG15, is capable of supplying the development proposals at Coppington Farm, Wellesbourne without the need for significant upgrading.

As currently worded we do not support the stated requirement that all development proposals will need to “Minimise the need for new water supply infrastructure by directing development to areas where there is a guaranteed and adequate supply of water, having due regard to Severn Trent Water's Resources Management Plan and Strategic Business Plan as well as findings of the Water Cycle Study”.
While we acknowledge that is preferable to direct new developments to areas where there is a guaranteed and adequate supply of water, it is common for water supplies to be reinforced and new services extended to serve new developments.

The policy states that all developments should ensure there is adequate water supply to serve the development. As per guidance set out in the Water Services Infrastructure Guide, ‘water companies have a duty to satisfy the WSI needs of development through the provision of services and monitoring compliance with water supply regulations’. Therefore it is not the developers responsibility to provide adequate water capacity.
‘Where practicable’ should be added to the third bullet point to provide some flexibility where connections into existing infrastructure is required. “Avoid surface water connections into existing surface water and combined sewer networks, where practicable, and manage runoff through suitably designed SuDs schemes”.

DTC RESPONSE:

Water Supply, Sewerage and Sewage Treatment Works
We would ask for reference to be added to when considering proposals for extensions or new
water supply, sewerage and sewage treatment works that cross boundary catchments, adjacent
local plan allocations and committed developments are recognised within the text and policy
wording and where possible there is capacity for future extensions. Within this section that is also
worth acknowledging that there are different infrastructure providers across local authority
boundaries (e.g. Severn Trent, Thames Water) etc and that they plan ahead for a 5 year period
compared to the longer term local plan period and text relating to the phasing of Infrastructure.
