As at 10.00hrs today Tuesday 6th December 2011 the TDC Draft Core Strategy can go forward for public consultation. In the previous Blog I have shown the process, but basically public and parishes can start to engage.
Again, it is a consultation process, and its not for me to predict the outcome, or suggest pathways that should be followed during the process, but to present the final outcome to the Planning Inspector in the fullness of time.
However, as this is a Blog and purely random thoughts can escape into the ether; were I still a Parish Clerk, I would be looking to advise Council first and foremost at which green space and lungs within the village envelop, or adjacent to it, that should be preserved for future generations to enjoy.
Having established what is the bottom line, then look at what may be needed in the future to service the community - i.e. keep the local school, shop, services etc. and then consider where both housing and employment can be located i in terms of first, second and third preferences.
Then finally work up a 'wish list' of projects, needs and requirements, that are needed to sustain the Parish into the future. This could even be by CICs or similar Trusts.
Without any bias, one such example is Chudleigh's Master Plan and Conservation Design Guide.
But as I say these are merely random thoughts for which no weight should be attached.
