PP4: Maxwells Farm West and Rush Meadow
Acceptable land uses for this area will be compatible with the economic development strategy and vision for the borough, providing high-value jobs within a landscaped environment.
Development proposals for this area should:
- include appropriate provision for businesses displaced from Brookfield Riverside (policy BR1) and Cheshunt Lakeside (policy CH1);
- provide semi-natural green corridors along the New River and existing cycle path;
- include an appropriate landscape buffer to maintain a sense of openness to the landscape along the A10;
- achieve scale, massing and design sensitive to the historic assets associated with Cedars Park;
- take account of long views, for example across the Lea Valley and north towards Bishops’ College bell tower and St. Mary’s church;
- provide vehicular access compatible with Park Plaza West (policy PP1);
- ensure that the comprehensive development of Rush Meadow and Maxwells Farm West is not prejudiced;
- facilitate the comprehensive delivery of transport and utilities infrastructure to the wider area; and
- make proportionate contributions to off-site infrastructure required to serve the wider area.
