Councillor Steve CurranLead Member for Housing, Planning and Regeneration

The new Local Plan will be Hounslow’s most important planning policy document. It will help lead high quality sustainable development in the borough of Hounslow, guiding investment in new buildings and important infrastructure, whilst protecting the assets and unique characteristics of the borough that our local communities value.

In the Summer we consulted you on the Policy Options for the Local Plan, which set out our vision for the borough over the next 15 years. It included options for how we provide the homes, jobs, school, shops and services we need, and set out sites which could help deliver these elements of the plan. It is now clear that we now need to consider more sites in order to meet the rising need for additional school places and housing, and meet the Mayor of London’s intention to increase the number of new homes across London.

We are now consulting you on a revised list of allocation sites - we consulted you on many of these before - some have been modified, and there are a number of additional sites. We have used your previous comments and engaged our partner organisations to prepare this list of sites. We have also provided further detail on how the sites could be best used and when development should come forward.

We again want your views to ensure the Local Plan provides the best planning policies possible for the borough and responds to the many opportunities that investment will bring. We ask you to consider how the sites included in this document can help your neighbourhood and Hounslow become more prosperous and a place you want to live, work and stay.

Thank you for your time and help.

1.1 This consultation builds on consultation that the council conducted in June and July 2013 on the ‘Policy Options for the Local Plan’ document. The consultation focuses on a revised list of potential sites allocations to be included in the future statutory development plan for Hounslow, to be known as the Local Plan. The plan is for the period 2015-2030.

1.2 The previous ‘Policy Options’ document included 45 proposed development site allocations across the borough, making provision for over 7,800 new homes, 30,000 sq m retail floorspace and 200,000 sq m of additional office floorspace. It is now necessary to revise this list in response to:

• The consultation responses received, which identified the need to alter some of the site allocations or to add new sites:

• The borough’s work with the Greater London Authority (GLA) on the draft London Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA) 2013. This considers the site capacity to meet rising housing need and is now nearly complete. It now appears likely that a significantly higher annual housing completions target will be set for Hounslow in the next revision of the London Plan – with an increase from 470 to approximately 825.

• The further work undertaken to identify sites that meet the need for additional school places for the growing population and the changing approach to school place planning and provision (through free schools, academies and the local authority); and

• The need to ensure that the requirements of the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) regulations have been met in relation to the assessment of the proposed site allocations through Sustainability Appraisal (SA).

1.3 It is therefore necessary to undertake a further consultation on the substantive list of proposed site allocations for the Local Plan to increase the provision made for new housing, to identify sites to make sufficient provision for new school places and to address the issues raised through the previous consultation and Sustainability Appraisal process.

1.4 The revised site allocations document presents 71 sites, some of which were presented in the June 2013 ‘Policy Options’ document. A map to identify each site and a brief outline of key information is presented, providing details of the boundary, the existing and proposed use, site constraints, a justification for the allocation and the source and context of the proposed site allocation.

PUblic conSUltAtion2.1 This ‘Revised Site Allocations Policy Options for the Local Plan’ consultation document and accompanying ‘Interim Sustainability Appraisal for the Revised Site Allocations Policy Options for the Local Plan’ are published for public consultation for a four week period from 1st October to 28th October.

The National Planning Policy Framework

3.1 The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) is clear that the purpose of the planning system is to contribute to the achievement of sustainable development, with a statutory local development plan (the Local Plan) providing the starting point for decision making. Local Plans should follow the approach of the ‘presumption in favour of sustainable development’, so that it is clear that development which is sustainable can be approved without delay. Local Plans should make provision to meet local identified needs, allocate sites to promote development and the flexible use of land; bring forward new land where necessary and provide detail on the form, scale, access and quantum of development where appropriate.

3.2 Local Plans should set out a broad approach to delivering a wide choice of high quality homes. In addition, Local Authorities are required to identify and update annually a supply of specific ‘deliverable’ sites sufficient to provide five years worth of housing against their housing requirements, with an additional buffer of 5% to ensure choice and competition in the market for land.

3.3 To be considered ‘deliverable’, sites should be available now, offer a suitable location for development, and be achievable with a realistic prospect that a viable development will be delivered on the site within five years. Sites with planning permission should be considered ‘deliverable’ until permission expires unless there is clear evidence that schemes will not be implemented within five years; for example, they will not be viable, there is no longer a demand for the type of units or sites have long term phasing plans.

3.4 Local Authorities should identify a supply of specific ‘developable’ sites or broad locations for growth for years six to ten, and where possible, for years 11-15. To be considered ‘developable’, sites should be in a suitable location for housing development and there should be a reasonable prospect that the site is available and could be viably developed at the point envisaged.

3.5 To support existing town centres, Local Plans are required to allocate a range of suitable sites to meet the scale and type of different development which is needed in town centres. The NPPF requires that the need for retail, leisure, office and other main town centre uses are met in full and so town centres must provide the required sites or else expand to take in new sites which

Policy contextcan accommodate this. It is also acknowledged that residential development can play an important role and so appropriate town centre sites are encouraged to include housing provision.

3.6 Sites should be identified that can deliver critical infrastructure, widen transport choice and enable operation of expanded electronic communications infrastructure. The council should also ‘plan positively’ for the provision of social, recreational and cultural facilities and services needed by the community, including ensuring that a sufficient choice of school places is available to meet the needs of existing and new communities. These will now be provided by a mixture of providers including Free Schools, Academies and the local authority.

The London Plan

3.7 The Local Plan is being developed so that it generally conforms with the London Plan, which sets out the Mayor of London’s regional spatial planning strategy. The London Plan also forms part of the statutory development plan for Hounslow. The London Plan includes policy requirements that the Local Plan is required to implement.

3.8 The 2011 Census found that the population of London was 8.17m, which means London’s population is growing faster than was forecast at the time the London Plan was prepared. In response the target for new housing to be completed each year across the whole of London will need to increase from around 32,200 each year to well in excess of 40,000 per year (DCLG projections project a need for some 53,000 new homes per year). The GLA is now preparing a review of the London Plan to address this growth in housing need – the London Plan Further Alterations – which it expects to consult on in early 2014. The review will include revised annual housing targets for each London borough, based on an update to the London Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment

and Housing Capacity Study (2009). The updated study will examine housing capacity and the latest projections on the growth in housing need. For Hounslow, this is likely to increase the current housing delivery target from 470 homes per annum to approximately 825. For the new Local Plan to be in general conformity with the new London Plan, sufficient sites now need to be identified to deliver this.

4.1 Sites are identified to meet projected need arising in the period 2015-2030. The process of selecting sites for development commenced with an initial ‘call for sites’ in 2011, which gave landowners an opportunity to put forward sites. The preparation of the ‘Policy Options’ for the Local Plan drew on these sites, along with those sites identified in the Housing Capacity Study/Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA) carried out with the Greater London Authority (GLA) (2009 and draft 2013 study). Additional sites were also identified through the Brentford Area Action Plan (adopted January 2009), the Hounslow Town Centre Masterplan (due for adoption in 2013) and other planning proposals and applications.

4.2 Sites have been selected on the following criteria:

• The site helps deliver spatial planning policies and priorities in strategic locations. e.g. ‘Regeneration of the Town Centres’;

• The site is 0.25 ha or larger;• The site helps to meet local need, e.g.

education provision;• The site helps implement national, regional or

local planning objectives and will contribute to the achievement of sustainable development.

e.g. the provision of gypsy and traveller pitches; and / or

• The site is deliverable in one of the phases of the plan period

Additional Housing Sites

4.3 To meet the increased housing target around 19 additional sites suitable to provide at least some housing are now proposed. These have been identified through a range of sources, including additional capacity identified in the recently completed SHLAA and by bringing forward sites previously identified for later phases of the Plan.

4.4 A revised policy option for Policy SC1 and a table summarising housing distribution around the borough is provided at Annex 1, this is included for consultation response.

Additional Education Sites

4.5 In light of the proactive approach to school place provision planning required by the NPPF and the forecast population increase, the council’s ‘schools programme’ has undertaken a search for suitable locations to meet the projected need for a

Site Selection ProceSSsignificant increase in school places. The council’s Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) identifies a need for an additional 75 forms of entry of school places.

4.6 Subsequently a sequential approach was used to identify appropriate sites for the expansion of existing and provision of new schools, and where appropriate to allocate these sites in the Local Plan to safeguard the sites and help meet the requirements.

4.7 As a result, this consultation identifies 14 sites where school expansion or the provision of new schools is proposed. Whilst some of these are located on brownfield sites within existing built up areas, there are two proposals that would require minor alterations to the borough’s Green Belt or open space designations.

4.8 A change to the Green Belt boundary is proposed to accommodate expansion of The Heathland School in Hounslow, which is an existing secondary school located within the Green Belt designation. Removing the existing school from the Green Belt will facilitate redevelopment of a previously developed site in a manner that can make the Green Belt boundary rational and permanent and is consistent with sustainable development.

Cranford, within the Green Belt. This is a long established site managed by Hounslow Homes with 20 authorised residential pitches, however further capacity is required to expand and accommodate the needs of the residents. It is anticipated that there is a need in Hounslow for an additional three to eleven pitches to be provided by 2017 (London Gypsy and Traveller Needs Assessment, 2008).

4.12 The council’s preferred option is to accommodate this additional need through an extension to the Hartlands site because this offers links with the existing community, and managerial benefits. National planning policy makes provision for alterations to the Green Belt boundary through the plan making process to meet the need for additional gypsy and traveller pitches. The Local Plan will therefore propose a limited alteration to the Green Belt boundary to remove the existing site and the proposed extension from the Green Belt. The council been unable to identify any alternative brownfield sites where the need for additional gypsy and traveller provision could be met and therefore proposes that the extension to the Hartlands site as the only reasonable alternative.

Site for mixed use development

4.13 The proposed development of a leisure centre and mixed use enabling development in Heston would take place on land included in the Open Space Assessment of the borough. However, it is considered appropriate for the Local Plan to allocate this site, as the provision of a new leisure centre would be accompanied by improvements to the existing park and open space, therefore mitigating the loss of open space. The allocation would also enable the delivery of improved leisure and recreation facilities for local residents, and there are not other available appropriate sites that could accommodate this facility. As such, it is considered that this allocation would not have a significant impact on open space provision in this part of the borough.

4.9 The proposed expansion of an existing primary school at Sutton Lane Playing Fields would take place on designated open space currently part vacant and part occupied by an indoor bowling club.The school would be located on land that is presently overgrown to rear of the indoor bowling club on the edge of the site. Therefore, it is considered that this allocation would not have a significant impact on open space provision in this part of the borough, and is justified as there is a demonstrable need for primary school places in this area.

Site for gypsy and traveller provision

4.10 National Planning Policy for Traveller Sites states that local planning authorities should identify a supply of specific ‘deliverable’ sites sufficient to provide five years worth of sites for gypsies and travellers against locally set targets. Furthermore, a supply of sites or broad locations should be identified that is available, suitable and developable for six to ten and where possible, 11-15 years ahead.

4.11 Hounslow currently has one authorised gypsy and traveller site within the borough, which is the site known as ‘The Hartlands’ located in

Housing

5.1 The plan is intended to cover the period commencing 2015; sites with planning permission and likely to be substantially complete by 2015 are not included in the site allocations. Large sites with planning permission for residential development that have not commenced on site will be allocated in the Local Plan with the corresponding numbers of units that have been approved. Where details of pre-application proposals are available and considered reasonable, the relevant housing capacity figure has also been used to inform the site allocation.

5.2 For other sites, the potential housing capacity of the site has been estimated in accordance with the methodology described below and in conformity with London Plan Policy 3.4 (Optimising Housing Potential). The housing capacity attributed to each site is indicative. Other considerations like design and layout, site constraints, size and type of unit and viability will also determine the number of dwellings that may be achieved on site following a planning application process.

5.3 The methodology to calculate capacity is based on the London Plan’s Sustainable, to which Residential Quality Density Matrix (SRQ matrix) Policy 3.4 refers. For potential housing sites the mid-point density ranges in the SQR matrix have been used to generate a density for each site. This is based on the Public Transport Accessibility Level (PTAL) and the defined character Setting of the area where the site is located. The density figure of dwellings per hectare is multiplied by the site area to calculate an indicative housing number. Where a site is allocated as a mixed use site and the residential proportion of the mixed use is not known, then an assumption based on local knowledge has been made on what proportion of the site will be residential. In accordance with the SHLAA methodology 2013, a higher density range was used to calculate housing capacity of sites in town centre locations.

Office

5.4 In terms of future commercial floor space requirements, the Employment Land Review 2011 has identified a requirement for an additional 200,000 sq m during the plan period to 2030. This is based on the assumption that the borough’s existing stock of 750,000 sq m is retained. There

is already an existing office development pipeline of 110,000 sq m based on current planning permissions. The proposed site allocations identify sites to deliver the residual of 90,000 sq m through the allocation of employment proposal sites.

Retail

5.5 The council commissioned a Retail Needs Study (updated in Jan 2013) to quantify the need for additional retail floor space in the borough throughout the plan period to 2031, and therefore the level of growth to be accommodated within each town centre. The study identified a need for a projected 30,000 sq m to 43,200 sq m (gross) of additional comparison floorspace and between -3,700 sq m to 900 sq m (gross) of convenience floorspace. The retail needs study also assigns this borough-wide need proportionally to each of the town centres, showing Hounslow to have the greatest need. In accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework the council has identified development sites within each of the town centres to accommodate the identified need up to 2031.

reviSed Policy oPtionS: Sc17.1 As outlined above in the Introduction and Policy Context (pages 6-8), the ‘Revised Site Allocations’ identifies additional housing and school sites and provides a new substantive set of Site Allocations. The process of identifying sites and their potential capacity for new housing development is explained on pages 9-11.

7.2 The wording of Policy Options SC1 has been revised to reflect the need to meet a new housing target to be set by the GLA, which is likely to increase up to a figure in the order of 825 additional dwellings per year in Hounslow. This will equate to building some 12,700 new homes in the period 2015-2030 (including an additional buffer of capacity in the first phase).

7.3 Table 2 provides a summary of how housing growth will be achieved over the three Phases of the Plan, with housing growth being achieved from several sources of capacity set out in the Table: • The large sites – the larger housing site

allocations identified in this document, distributed across the ten District character areas;

• New dwellings on large sites that currently have planning permission but are not projected to be completed until after April 2015;

• Developable capacity identified to broad

location level across the borough, based on potential large sites evidenced in the new SHLAA; and

• Capacity consistently achieved from small sites across the borough.

7.4 In line with planning guidance and the NPPF, it is appropriate to plan for the housing capacity derived from the latter two sources but not to identify specific site details at this stage. Table 2 supersedes the Table at page 129 of the ‘Policy Options’ report of June 2013.

7.5 The figures presented in this table and those published in June 2013 have been prepared using some different definitions and methodology rising from the new London wide SHLAA 2013 and previous approach, and therefore the summary information in the two tables is not directly comparable. In particular, the rate of construction on a number of large sites in Brentford and Hounslow is now found to be faster than previously thought with more dwellings projected to be completed before April 2015. Therefore, these dwellings / site phases are now excluded from the table figures. In addition, following the previous consultation, a number of sites previously identified for possible housing or other uses are now proposed for the expansion of school provision.

1. Maximising the supply of additional homes in the borough to achieve the annual housing target set out in the London Plan, as amended by the London Plan Further Alterations.

2. The borough’s housing growth will be achieved and distributed in accordance with the proposed revised site allocations and Local Plan spatial planning strategy. The effect of this on the distribution of sites is summarised in the Table below.
