12. Monitoring and Implementation

Implementation

12.1. In implementing the Revised LDP, the Council will continue to work collaboratively with internal and external partners, organisations and the private sector to implement new development proposals, including employment and housing schemes. The monitoring framework notes the bodies and agencies that are likely to contribute towards delivering specific aspects of the Plan.

12.2. In order to deliver new development the existence of appropriate infrastructure including water supply, sewerage, land drainage, gas, electricity and telecommunications is vital to ensuring the delivery of the Plan's policies and proposals. In some cases, where new or improved infrastructure is required to accommodate new development, this can be provided through scheduled works undertaken by utility companies. Where infrastructure improvements are required to cater for new development but are not programmed to take place within the development's timescale, the prospective developers will need to provide or requisition the infrastructure required to allow development to go ahead.

12.3. The Council will continue to work with DCWW and NRW to ensure that new developments do not place significant pressure on existing infrastructure and do not significantly affect environmental quality. The Council will work in partnership with these agencies and other service providers, utility companies and the private sector, to secure the required infrastructure provision at the optimal time for moving towards achieving the Plan's objectives. This will secure appropriate measures to mitigate the significant adverse effects which new development would have upon the natural environment. SPG and Development Briefs will where necessary provide more detailed information on infrastructure requirements and on working collaboratively to ensure delivery.

12.4. The ability of the public and private sector, to deliver new development and associated infrastructure improvements, will be heavily influenced by external economic circumstances. For this reason, the rate of development over the plan period is likely to vary.

12.5. The Council will also work closely with Local Authorities across the region to ensure alignment between this LDP and their Strategies and in developing regional strategic arrangements, and to ascertain and minimise the likely in-combination effects of this Plan's proposals.

12.6. This chapter takes the strategic policies set out within this Revised LDP and sets out the mechanisms for their implementation. It outlines the partners and agencies, both internal and external, which will contribute towards their implementation, and where appropriate will outline the tools which will be used, such as SPG and Development Briefs.

12.7. The implementation of this Plan will be continually monitored and where appropriate additional mechanisms will be considered to ensure that the best processes are in place, and that the appropriate information is used to inform and guide its implementation.

Monitoring

12.8. This section outlines a monitoring framework which will be used as a tool for measuring the implementation of Revised LDP's policies and proposals. The framework comprises a series of core and local performance indicators intended to monitor the effects and success of the LDP's policies.

12.9. The information gathered through the monitoring framework will be presented in the Annual Monitoring Report (AMR) which is required to cover the preceding financial year and submitted to the WG by 31st October each year following adoption of the LDP. The AMR is the main mechanism for measuring the implementation and the success of the Plan's policies and will report on issues which impact upon the Plan's objectives. The AMR will also analyse the effectiveness and continued relevance of the Plan's policies in the light of national policy and circumstantial changes. The findings of the AMR could result in amendments to policies in order to improve their effectiveness and in more extreme cases could result in a review of part or of the whole Plan. The report will set out the outcomes of the monitoring framework and the data gathered will, where required, provide a contextual narrative in relation to each finding.

12.10. Irrespective of the AMR's findings, the Council will be required to carry out a review no longer than 4 years from the date of adoption. This could result in the production of a replacement/revised Plan or in the alterations of aspects of the Plan.

12.11. LDP Regulations prescribes the following indicator required by legislation which must be included in the AMR:

  • The number of net additional affordable and general market dwellings built in the LPA's area.

12.12. Table 29 of the Development Plans Manual Edition 3 sets out additional key indicators applicable to the Plan.

12.13. These indicators required by WG are identified in the monitoring framework. Contextual indicators will also be used in the AMR to evaluate if it is the Plan which is not achieving the targets or if there are external factors (e.g. the economy or changes in funding sources ) which are outside of the planning system's control which influence the outcomes of the framework.

12.14. As reflected within the ISA, the SEA Regulations (Article 17) require that the significant environmental effects of the Plan be monitored so that any unforeseen adverse effects can be remediated. To avoid duplication between the monitoring carried out for the ISA (incorporating the SA/SEA) and the rLDP, some indicators have been combined for the two processes to aid clarity. This is demonstrated within Chapter 8 of the ISA report.

12.15. The following options are available to the Council in association with each of the indicators and their triggers. The AMR will assess the severity of the situation associated with each indicator and recommend an appropriate response.

Table 12: Monitoring Outcomes

Continue Monitoring (Green)

Where indicators are suggesting that LDP policies are being implemented effectively and there is no cause for a review.

Officer / Member Training Required (Blue)

Where indicators associated with planning applications suggest that policies are not being implemented as they were intended, and further officer or Member training is required.

Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG) / Development Briefs Required (Purple)

Whilst the Council will be preparing SPG and Development Briefs throughout the Plan period, indicators may suggest that further guidance should be provided to developers on how a policy should be properly interpreted. Additionally, should sites not be coming forward as envisaged, the Council will actively engage with developers / landowners to bring forward Development Briefs on key sites to help commence the development process.

Policy Research / Investigation (Yellow)

Where monitoring indicators suggest the LDP policies are not being as effective as intended, further research and investigation, including the use of contextual indictors (as outlined above) and comparisons with other local authorities and national statistics where appropriate will be undertaken to inform any decision to formally review the policy.

Review Policy (Orange)

Where monitoring indicators suggest that amendments to the LDP would be beneficial, the Council will consider modifying the Plan as appropriate. This may result in a review of Plan policies.

Plan Review (Red)

Where the monitoring indicators suggest the Plan and its strategy is not being implemented. An investigation into the reasons behind it not being implemented may result in a formal review of the Plan.
