Respondent: Canal & River Trust
We would require any development to; not adversely affect the integrity of the waterway structure, quality of the water, result in unauthorised discharges and run off or encroachment; detrimentally affect the landscape, heritage, ecological quality and character of the waterways; prevent the waterways potential for being fully unlocked or discourage the use of the network. The waterways can be used as tools in place making, and contribute to the creation of sustainable communities. Canal & River Trust would seek for any development to optimise the benefits such a location can generate for all parts of the community.
The proposed housing allocation at the Former Ridgeway School is adjacent to the Grand Union Canal. The Canal & River Trust would require any development at the Former Ridgeway School to; not adversely affect the integrity of the waterway structure, quality of the water, result in unauthorised discharges and run off or encroachment; detrimentally affect the landscape, heritage, ecological quality and character of the waterways; prevent the waterways potential for being fully unlocked or discourage the use of the waterway network. The waterways can be used as tools in place making and place shaping, and contribute to the creation of sustainable communities. Canal & River Trust would seek for any development to relate appropriately to the waterway and optimise the benefits such a location can generate for all parts of the community.

I agree with using brownfield sites rather than green belt land as a way of increasing housing capacity in the area.

Sport England can not and will not support the release of any land for housing which is currently used or was formally used for sport unless the land in question is shown to be surplus for sport through a robust assessment. Sport England is aware that WDC is producing a Playing Pitch Strategy, but until it is adopted Sport England would expect any planning application to show through a robust assessment, that the sports land/facilities are no longer required.

Ridgeway school should be used for housing provided that adequate car parking provision is made within the development.
