Planning Schedule Date: 10/08/2004 the bend. This has been caused by the existing new development because insufficient parking has been allocated - appreciate that new development complies with government guidelines on reduced parking standards but in effect they are unrealistic and lead to indiscriminate parking on other existing congested roads in the vicinity. We understand from an Environment Agency officer that the existing new development is undesirable so close to the canal side because of flooding problems - this part of the canal sometimes floods because of its bottle neck effect as it feeds into the river just further along in Frome Gardens. Further development will exacerbate this situation. Should the development be allowed, we would like to request significant contribution towards the cost of the provision of a ramp for disabled and other users of the right of way over the nearby canal footbridge (Rights of Way have commissioned drawings and are currently consulting with the EA who have no objection in principle). We note this area has already been cleared, in fact SDC Environmental Health Officer was obliged to attend the site last week because of nuisance caused by the way the developer was disposing of the debris and we hope that this time he will wait for permission to be completed before commencing building. Environment Agency The Environment Agency objects to the application as it is within an area at high risk of flooding and is not supported by a flood risk assessment that demonstrates the proposed residential development will not cut off future residents from dry land, place extra strain on emergency services and put lives at risk. Cotswold Canal Trust Object: The proposed dwellings, numbers 33 to 39 on the plan, are situated very close to the canals and will overshadow and crowd it. The canal and its surroundings are designated by your Council as an Industrial Heritage Conservation Area in order to preserve its historical structures and setting. Extending the recent modern, "out of keeping" development along this line would be totally contrary to the purpose of the IHCA. Should such an application be permitted it would be expected that a substantial Section 106 agreement should be sought to contribute to the restoration of the canal in agreement with the Canal Company, Canals Trust and British Waterways. Neighbour Contributions Letters of Objection Mr S Emery, 49 Westward Road, Stroud • Loss of privacy - any permission will breach writers rights that are protected by Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights. • Intensity of development too great for the site. • Will cause noise and nuisance. • Overbearing. • A haven for wildlife. • Will remove one of the last areas of undeveloped land on this stretch of the Stroudwater Canal. 100
Site Location: Site Report: Planning Schedule Date: 10/08/2004 Site and Proposal The site is located in Cainscross, within the designated Industrial Heritage Conservation Area and fronting directly onto the passing canal. It is a relatively flat area covered in scrubby vegetation, with several large trees adjacent to the canal. It includes a raised "causeway" that links onto the estate road serving the neighbouring residential development to the west. The land rises rapidly at its northern end to the rear of residential properties. To both the east and the west of the site are narrow wedges of open land, beyond both of which is residential development tight onto the edge of the canal. The proposal is to erect 13 new dwellings, in the form of two, two and a half storey blocks each containing 6 apartments and one semi detached dwelling. The proposal would be linked to the adjacent estate road via the raised causeway. Planning Considerations The site is located within a defined settlement boundary and this application is considered against Policies H14, B4, T1, R8, G4, G1 & G5 of the Stroud District Local Plan, Revised Deposit Version (as amended June 2001 including Housing Amendments September 2003). The relevant sections of Policies H14 and B4 require that: proposed housing is of a scale, layout, design and in materials sympathetic to that part of the settlement in which it would be located, 101
