Southend Central Area Action Plan (SCAAP) - Schedule of Modifications to the Revised Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 2888

Received: 30/08/2017

Respondent: Milton Conservation Society

Representation Summary:

We are very please to see the expansion of the text with further details and relevance and this is in line with our earlier representations. We note in particular the change to exclude 'celebrate' heritage and include 'promote' heritage. We believe that this is more than a minor textual change for easy reading and replaces a nebulous term with a very distinct term that invites further action by the Council. This is very good and importantly connotes a sense that heritage has a valuable role to play in the future of the town - exactly how it should be.

Southend Central Area Action Plan (SCAAP) - Schedule of Modifications to the Revised Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 2890

Representation Summary:

Heritage has to play a fundamental role in future town planning and this has not been the case in the past where it is viewed as a self contained aspect (often simply a quaint aspect) that merely requires protection. Use of 'promote' helps to overcome this although we would like to see terms like 'aggregate' and 'confer' also apply to heritage in the context of new development.
