5) Appropriate community and small-scale local shopping facilities, including the reservation of land for a new primary school. 2.22.3 Circular guidance requires that such contributions are fairly and reasonably related in scale and kind to the proposed development; are necessary to remedy any shortfalls or adverse impacts resulting from the proposed development; and are necessary to make the proposal acceptable in land use planning terms. 2.22.4 In terms of developer contributions then the “Approved Development Brief” for the wider site sets out a series of elements for consideration by the developers and the Council in progressing schemes for the site. 2.22.5 The submitted S106 Heads of Terms refers to education, recycling, and recreational open space provision. Affordable housing and Recreational Open Space have been considered earlier in this report. Taking the other matters in turn. Education 2.22.6 In terms of education matters then Policy SHB/1B (9) states that proposals must make provision for “appropriate community and smallscale local shopping facilities, including the reservation of land for a new primary school”. 2.22.7 Since the previous refusal on the adjacent site for 498 units, the agents have submitted an application for change of use from agricultural to educational (use Class D1) and formation of new access road to Milford Road on land to the southern edge of Athelston CP School and this would be transferred to North Yorkshire County Council upon occupation of the first dwelling which would be secured via a Section 106 agreement. In addition they have offered a contribution towards the enhancement of education facilities at Athelstan CP School which would be secured via the Section 106 agreement. 2.22.8 North Yorkshire County Council have confirmed that they withdraw their previous objections and this decision has been taken in the expectation of the future expansion of Athelstan CP School and following; 1) Approval of the change of use application NY/2012/0171/COU for land adjacent to the school site. 2) Consideration of the local and national planning policies which would influence a future detailed planning application for development of the enlarged site including the National Planning Policy Framework. This is subject to developer contributions to secure education infrastructure, both land and financial, via s.106 provision. 78

2.22.9 As such the scheme is considered to accord with Criterion 3 of ENV1, Policy CS6 of the Local Plan and the Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) on Developer Contributions. Primary Care Trust 2.22.10 In terms of developer contributions to healthcare then the “Approved Development Brief” for the wider site outlines that the development “will be required to meet the healthcare needs generated by the development and the overall scheme should allow for the reservation of land for such facilities if necessary”, going on to state that “the preferred method of delivery and the level of payment required will be discussed with the PCT and suitable provision will be made to secure these improvements through a legal agreement”. As such alongside CS6, the Council’s SPD on Developer Contributions and the Development Brief there is a policy context to seek contributions to improvements in healthcare provision as a result of the development. 2.22.6 The PCT have confirmed that additional health care provision may need to be considered, however the PCT have not confirmed what contribution they would seek and what these monies would be utilised for. Therefore in the absence of this information it is considered that a contribution cannot be justified at this stage, as it cannot be shown by the LPA to be necessary or reasonably related in scale and kind to the development proposed (in the absence of evidence supporting the level of contribution). Waste and Recycling Facilities 2.22.11 As part of any S106 and in line with Policy CS6 and the Council’s SPD on Developer Contributions the provision of waste recycling for the dwellings would be based on the following levels subject to prices changing based on all of the units being “Dwellings with Gardens”. Therefore the total contribution would equate for the provision of 2 bins and 3 recycling bins and this would be secured via a Section 106 agreement. Community or Small Scale Retail Provision 2.22.12 In terms of developer contributions to community venues and retail provision the “Approved Development Brief” for the wider site outlines that as the site would ultimately accommodate more than 3000 residents, this level of population “may require a venue for meeting purposes and / other community needs”. 2.22.9 The scheme (together with other development on this Phase 2 site) does not include such a provision and the Parish Council although highlighting issues with capacity on existing services, have not identified specific proposals to which the developer could be asked to 79

2.22.12 In terms of developer contributions to community venues <strong>and</strong> retail<br />

provision the “Approved Development Brief” for the wider site outlines<br />

that as the site would ultimately accommodate more than 3000<br />

residents, this level of population “may require a venue for meeting<br />

purposes <strong>and</strong> / other community needs”.<br />

2.22.9 The scheme (together <strong>with</strong> other development on this Phase 2 site)<br />

does not include such a provision <strong>and</strong> the Parish Council although<br />
