MHE18: Delivering the AAP

A comprehensive approach will be required to development of the site to ensure a high quality of design, an integrated layout and the timely delivery of social, economic, environmental and physical infrastructure improvements.

This will be delivered through one of the following mechanisms:

  • A voluntary landowners’ agreement and equalisation mechanism leading to a site-wide planning application or:
  • A council/ partnership led strategic framework and planning obligations mechanism which applies to the whole AAP area to which all individual planning applications must conform.

The following documents will need to be approved by the council at or before the planning application stage.

They cover site-wide issues which require further detailed work to ensure a comprehensive development:

  • Strategic masterplan for the whole site showing road hierarchy and access roads, strategic landscaping and open space, location of community facilities and infrastructure;
  • Design codes;
  • Public transport strategy;
  • Landscape and open space strategy;
  • Energy strategy;
  • Flood risk assessment and drainage strategy;
  • Community facilities strategy; and
  • Phasing and delivery strategy
