Development Proposals

Representation ID: 47221

Received: 27/07/2012

Respondent: The National Trust

Representation Summary:

There is compelling evidence that when landscape is placed at the heart of the development process, developers can profit, while businesses and communities reap the environmental, social and economic benefits. In particular, planning and implementing substantial landscape frameworks, well in advance of major developments and transport infrastructure, can bring many benefits, including safeguarding and enhancing vital landscape assets, helping to create a sense of place for new development and retaining vital links with the past. This need to consider landscape planning well in advance of development, should be emphasised in the GI section of the Plan.

Received: 27/07/2012

Respondent: The National Trust

Representation Summary:

There is no reference in the document to minimising the impact of light pollution on local amenity and intrinsically dark landscapes, in accordance with NPPF. The NPPF also for the first time allows local authorities to identify and protect Areas of Tranquillity (Para 123), which have remained relatively undisturbed by noise and are prized for their recreational and amenity value.
