Employment Sites

Infrastructure Requirements

New development must be served and supported by appropriate on and off-site infrastructure and services. Development should deliver and/or contribute towards the delivery of infrastructure where this is necessary and fairly and reasonably related to the development having full regard to the Infrastructure Delivery Plan Schedule and its wider infrastructure objectives.
Development proposals in Nazeing will be expected to deliver and/or contribute proportionately towards infrastructure items, including:
1. appropriate education provision including early years, primary school and secondary school places;
2. appropriate provision of health facilities;
3. provision of walking and cycling facilities, and linkages both within the site and to key destinations, including to the Lee Valley Regional Park;
4. enhancements to public transport provision or other initiatives which reduce the need to travel by car;
5. upgrade and improvement of utility infrastructure including water, waste water, solid waste, gas, electricity and telecommunications where necessary; and
6. improvements and provision of green and blue infrastructure and open space throughout the settlement.

Air Pollution

The development of sites within Nazeing has the potential to produce air pollution that could impact upon air quality in the District, including the Epping Forest. All development proposals will need to demonstrate that they are in accordance with Policy DM2 and Policy DM22 and should have regard to the Council’s adopted Air Pollution Mitigation Strategy for the Epping Forest. This includes, where necessary, the provision of financial contributions for the purposes of implementing air pollution mitigation initiatives and undertaking air quality monitoring and any necessary future air quality assessments.

Flood Risk

Except for essential infrastructure and water compatible developments, no built development on residential allocations will be permitted on land within Flood Zones 2 and 3 as shown on the Council’s latest Strategic Flood Risk Assessment maps, including the appropriate allowance for climate change.

South Nazeing Concept Framework

In order to ensure that a comprehensive and cohesive approach is taken to the planning and delivery of certain sites and associated infrastructure, planning applications in relation to sites NAZE.R1, NAZE.R3 and NAZE.R4 should be accompanied by and have regard to a Concept Framework Plan, as defined in Policy SP2, which has been endorsed by the Council. The endorsed Concept Framework Plan will be taken into account as an important material consideration in the determination of any planning applications.
The Concept Framework Plan will apply to multiple allocation sites. The Plan should be prepared and delivered jointly by all site promotors of the site allocations identified within the Concept Framework Plan Area. Details of the specific requirements of each Concept Framework Plan can be found within the site specific requirements set out in Part Two of this Plan.
The Concept Framework Plan and the planning applications for each site located within it should be considered and informed by the Quality Review Panel and be subject to public consultation, including in respect of the Concept Framework Plan, consultation with all those with a development interest in the defined area.
