Takeley/ Little Canfield Local Policy 3 Priors Green
The Priors Green site to the east of Takeley defined on the Inset Map is proposed for comprehensive residential and associated development of 815 dwellings.
The following criteria must be met:
- It provides for a mixed and balanced community;
- It provides for a local centre incorporating community facilities and suitable shopping, a primary school, a health facility, satisfactory open space and arrangements for sport and recreation.
- It provides for substantial landscaping within the development boundaries to complement the layout and arrangement of buildings and may be required, by legal agreement, to provide off site landscaping.
- It is designed to mitigate adverse effects upon existing residential and community interests and may be required, by legal agreement, to provide or contribute towards wider and longer term planning benefits reasonably associated with the alleviation of any such impact. Development will need to provide for appropriate sport and recreation facilities, and long-term traffic calming measures for Dunmow Road.
- It provides for the management of the nature conservation interests of woodland in Broadfield Road;
- The provision of these and other relevant planning benefits are coordinated with the development of the site to the west of Hawthorn Close.
Development will need to be implemented in accordance with a master plan approved by the Council. This will indicate how specific proposals, which may be implemented on a phased basis, will relate to an overall design concept for the site.
