Appendix B. Agree with all this, especially B5. Smaller developments are more<br />
desirable as seen from the response to the LDF exercise.<br />
B8: yes agree they would be very helpful. How will we (Parish <strong>Council</strong> & <strong>District</strong><br />
<strong>Council</strong>) know that this has happened?<br />
permission there can be no intervention or<br />
policing.<br />
Support welcome<br />
Developers are encouraged to discuss<br />
proposals and include the outcome in their<br />
planning application.<br />
Mr & Mrs Gray B10, B11 and B12 – how do we police this? Policing may only be possible on Listed<br />
Buildings where there are statutory controls.<br />
On other buildings there is no mechanism for<br />
policing.<br />

B18 agree. The fences around some properties are awful, esp when they fall<br />
apart and are left in this state.<br />
B19- yes, but not enormous trees unless there is lots of space. Roots can<br />
damage house foundations, drains etc.<br />
B20 & B24. An alarming number of properties have “block paved” their<br />
driveways – how can we stop this?<br />
Taken as a whole, the document is not well-ordered. It is evident from recent<br />
discussions that the Parish <strong>Council</strong> has a clear understanding of the purpose of<br />
a VDS but experience elsewhere shows that such documents are widely<br />
misunderstood by the general public. It is important, therefore, that the purposes<br />
of the VDS are set out clearly at the beginning of the document. As drafted, this<br />
information appears, in part, under the heading “VDS Objectives” at the<br />
beginning of the document; under “Purpose of a Village Design Statement” and<br />
in Annex A. Annex A itself (which I assume is in standardised format attached to<br />
all VDSs) it’s highly confusing. The first three paragraphs should be incorporated<br />
in some form or another at the beginning of the VDS and the rest of the<br />
Support welcome<br />
Support welcome<br />
It is not for the VDS to attempt to stop this.<br />
Where permitted development rights exist the<br />
planning system does not get involved.<br />
Where planning permission is required for<br />
hard standing then an appropriate material<br />
must be agreed.<br />
The <strong>Council</strong> is satisfied that the role and<br />
purpose of the VDS is clearly set out in the<br />
generic text at the beginning of the<br />
document, and that the Appendix adds<br />
additional detail. The layout is appropriate<br />
and logical.<br />
