Southend Central Area Action Plan & Proposals Map - Proposed Submission

support the paragraph 'Proposals for Seafront development along Eastern Esplanade will need to demonstrate that there will be no unacceptable impact upon navigation, biodiversity, flood risk or the special character and designations.'

Support point 2) FLood risk must be managed appropriately through an adequate FRA.

point 3) Water efficiency measures should also be included alongside energy efficiency. Achieving a minimum of level 3 of the code for sustainable homes should be refered to, in line with Core Strategy policy CP4 and Development Management policy DM2.

This plan is likely to be adopted after the publication of the NPPF which will render PPS25 invalid. The principles of development in flood risk areas are likely to remain the same. To future proof the policy specific reference to PPS25 could be removed in places.
