<strong>Planning</strong> <strong>Schedule</strong> <strong>Date</strong>: <strong>10</strong>/<strong>08</strong>/<strong>2004</strong><br />

f) Community car parking should be permitted in agreement with Nailsworth Primary School,<br />

Nailsworth Chamber of Trade and Commerce, Stagecoach and other coach operators.<br />

3.3 King George V Extension<br />

A commuted sum should be agreed towards management of the playing fields. The Town<br />

<strong>Council</strong> should not incur any legal costs in setting up an agreement.<br />

b) Bollards should be provided at the edge of the existing car park to stop vehicles driving over<br />

the existing field.<br />

c) The hedge between the existing playing fields and the extension should be retained and<br />

improved with supplementary planting.<br />

3.5 Transport Proposals<br />

a) A pedestrian crossing should be provided to the school<br />

b) The football club should be required to provide "agreed community car parking", with local<br />

organisations including: local coach tour operators, Nailsworth Primary School, Nailsworth<br />

Chamber of Trade, and Stagecoach.<br />

The <strong>District</strong> <strong>Council</strong> is asked to note that timing is critical to make this proposal happen. The<br />

football club has to cease playing at its existing stadium by May 2005, and if there is any delay in<br />

making a decision the scheme may fail. An expedient decision is vital to its success.<br />

PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS<br />

The application is accompanied by an Environmental Statement and Further Information in<br />

connection with such. It is a requirement of the <strong>Council</strong> when determining the application to<br />

consider the Environmental Effects of the development proposed and any mitigating measures<br />

proposed to remediate against any adverse impacts.<br />

There are no specific policies contained within the <strong>Stroud</strong> <strong>District</strong> Local Plan Revised Deposit<br />

Version (as amended June 2001) which relate directly to the erection of football stadiums and the<br />

same is true regarding the policies contained within the Structure Plan.<br />

The application is therefore considered against material considerations and other policies which<br />

relate to general matters such as amenity, highway safety and the water environment. Polices<br />

also relate to landscape implications, built form (including environment), natural environment,<br />

recreation and community facilities.<br />

To this end the application is considered against General Policies G1, G2, G3, G4 and G5.<br />

Policies B1(Urban design), B12 and B13(Archaeology), B14(Historic Park), N1 (designated area -<br />

wildlife) N2 (Key wildlife site), N6 (Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty), N7, N8 and<br />

N9(landscape), N12 (Landscaping of proposal) are also considered, along with T1 Transport, R1<br />

(Retention of facilities or replacement of such), R3 (Development of recreational area in<br />

educational ownership).<br />

The following Structure Plan Policies have been considered:<br />

Structure Plan Policies RE1 (deals with the retention of recreational facilities), T1 (sustainable<br />

transport), RE1 and S.5 (recreation and need for community facilities) are also relevant when<br />

dealing with this proposal. These Policies are similar to those adopted by the <strong>District</strong> <strong>Council</strong> in<br />

its Local Plan but are listed below for reference purposes.<br />

Policy T1<br />

New Development and the Transport System.<br />
