If you have selected policy / site omission, please enter the site reference or location, or specify the policy area as appropriate.
B79 and B116
1.1 Do you consider the AONB DPD to be legally compliant?
Yes
1.3 Do you consider the AONB DPD to be sound?
Yes
1.5 Please give details of why you consider the DPD is not legally compliant or is unsound or fails to comply with the Duty to Cooperate. Please be as precise as possible.
If you wish to support the legal compliance or soundness of the DPD or its compliance with the Duty to Cooperate, please also use this box to set out your comments.
Whilst I consider the Arnside and Silverdale AONB DPD to be both legally compliant and sound, I wish to propose a modification which I believe will make it more complete and resilient
The Plan, Inset 4, Storth, shows by horizontal green hatching, areas B79 and B116 as "Key Settlement Landscapes".
Immediately to the east is pasture land - white on the plan.
This white land is the same on the ground as the green hatched land. Indeed there is no field boundary (fence, hedge, wall etc.) on the green line extending south west from the southern corner of B116, thus that part of it is one continuous field.
It is therefore logical that the designation of "Key Settlement Landscape" be continued eastwards to abut the large grey area of land to the east, and northwards to abut B81.
This would avoid leaving an island of undesignated land which is untidy.
I therefore propose this as a modification which I hope can be accepted at this stage.
1.6 Please set out what modification(s) you consider necessary to resolve your objection and make the DPD legally compliant or sound, having regard to the matter(s) you have identified above. (Please note that any non-compliance with the Duty to Cooperate is incapable of modification at examination). You will need to say why this modification will make the DPD legally compliant or sound. It will be helpful if you are able to put forward your suggested revised wording of any policy or text. Please be as precise as possible.
Please see my comments regarding 1.5 above.
