HERITAGE AND LOCAL PLANNING APPROACHESLDFs should set out a positive, proactive strategy for he conservation and enjoyment of the historic environment taking into account the variations in type and distribution of heritage asset, as well as the contribution made by the historic environment by virtue of: Its influence on the character of the environment and sense of place; Its potential to be a catalyst for regeneration; The stimulus it can provide to inspire new development of imaginative and high quality design; The re-use of existing fabric, minimising waste; and Its mixed and flexible patterns of land use that are likely to be, and remain, sustainable (PPS5 para HE3.1). HERITAGE-LED REGENERATIONThe historic environment is an essential element of building sustainable communities (Heritage Protection for the 21st Century p.7). The reuse of historic buildings can provide a focus for regeneration and economic development and can ensure the sustainable use of resources (Heritage for the 21st Century p.7). Promote conservation as a focus for conservation-led regeneration (Conservation in GM p.65) The potential and importance of the historic environment as a learning resource and an economic asset should be recognised and harnessed (The Historic environment: A force for our future para 9). The historic environment should be accessible to everybody and seen as something with which the whole of society can identify and engage (The Historic environment: A force for our future para 9). LISTED BUILDINGS & CONSERVATION AREALocal plans should set out clearly the planning authority's policies for the preservation and enhancement of the historic environment in their area, and the factors which will be taken into account in assessing different types of planning application (PPG 15, Para 2.8) Ensure development in conservation areas will only be allowed where it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of a conservation area. (UDP, Policy CH3) Proposals involving alterations, extensions, change of use or demolition whether partial or total, of a listed building will be permitted only where they would preserve or enhance the character and features of special architectural interest that contribute to the reasons for its listing. (City of Salford UDP, Policy CH 1) Greenspace should be designed so as to protect and, where appropriate, enhance the setting and character and features of listed buildings, or locally listed, features or structures within or adjacent to the site (Greenspace Strategy SPD, Policy GS10). HERITAGE TOURISM (Also see Tourism)New tourism developments should respect the historic interest of the surrounding buildings and areas and ensuring that proposals do not adversely affect the historic environment that people value (Good Practice Guide on Planning for Tourism, para 5.11). Local heritage sites such as the Old Warke Dam, the Lime Kiln and general local history preserved from industrial times of canal, coal and steam provides significant tourist and economic potential (Regenerating a great city: Salford’s Neighbourhood Renewal Strategy, para 6.30.3). Create a range of complementary attractions, which make best use of the city’s heritage assets (Adopted UDP, para 13.2) (A Creative City: Salford’s Strategy for Cultural Development 2002-2006, pg 40)(Salford West Framework p.44 and 75). HERITAGE AND CLIMATE CHANGEWhere conflict between climate change objectives and the conservation of heritage assets is unavoidable, the public benefit of mitigating the effects of climate change should be weighed against any harm to the significance of heritage assets in accordance with this and national planning policy on climate change (PPS5 para HE1) REFERENCES (HERITAGE)Department for Communities and Local Government (2005) Planning Policy Statement 1 Department for Communities and Local Government (2010) Planning Policy Statement 5 (Planning for the Historic Environment) European Commission (1999) The European Spatial Development Perspective NWRA (2006) North West Best Practice Design Guide.

Sensitive uses include: Housing, hospitals and schools (PPG24 para 6)(UDP Policy EN17); and Areas undisturbed by noise and prized for recreational and amenity value such as SSSI’s, National Parks, The Broads, AONB or Heritage coasts (PPG24 para.5 and 20) (UDP Policy EN17). Environmental quality should be protected through maintaining and enhancing the tranquillity of open countryside and rural areas (RSS Policy DP7, see also RT4) Promote positive management of the Region’s natural, built and historic environment and protect from development likely to cause harm (such as further loss or fragmentation of tranquil areas, including light or noise pollution) as identified in the Regional Landscape Strategy (RSS Policy ER1) Encourage patterns of development which minimise impact of noise pollution upon public realm (RSS Policy UR10 para.5.43) Sustainable communities enable a lifestyle that minimises negative environmental impacts and enhances positive impacts (e.g. by reducing noise pollution)(Securing the Future pg.185). Control or reduce noise levels or mitigate impacts through conditions or planning obligations (PPG24 para.2 and 15). Download 1.19 Mb. Share with your friends:
