Residential development scheme with accesses onto Chudleigh Road and Dawlish Road, associated infrastructure with all other matters reserved (Amended Scheme)

26/12/2019

0 Comments

 
Plans: Letter dated 16th July 2015
Plans: Arb report dated 7th Feb 2013
Plans: Arb report dated  7th Aug 2017
Reference: 15/0640/OUT
Alternative Reference: None given
Application Received: Fri 05 Jun 2015
Application Validated: Fri 05 Jun 2015
Address: Aldens Farm East Land Between Chudleigh Road And Dawlish Road Alphington Exeter
Proposal: Residential development scheme with accesses onto Chudleigh Road and Dawlish Road, associated infrastructure with all other matters reserved (Amended Scheme).
Application Type: Outline Planning Permission
Case Officer: Paul Jeffrey
Ward: Alphington
Agent Name: Ms Jenny Mitter
Agent Company: NameLichfields
Agent Address: The Quorum Bond Street Bristol BS1 3AE
Environmental Assessment Requested: No
​Impact: There are many established hedgerows and nearly all of the trees within the proposal are mixed species within the hedgerows. The plans indicate a lot of ivy will be removed and a fair amount of large shrubs / trees will be 'managed' by either felling / flailing / general tidy up. Extreme caution needs to be taken when 'managing' these hedgerows due to the amount of disturbance to the wildlife as well as a reduction of bio-diversity in the area. A lot of field elm (and hybrids) are noted which are likely to be infected with DED. These should be reduced in numbers and replaced with other native shrubs such as field maple, hawthorn and holly. It is not clear on how many trees are due to planted in the proposal, but based on the amount of land and reduction in hedgerows / trees - several hundred young trees / shrubs should be replanted. The nearest green space (park) is Chantry Meadows which is a small park and would take about 10+ minutes walk from the 'proposal'.

Plans: Tree Hedge schedule
Plans: ​Tree Hedge schedule update
Reference: 19/1375/OUT
Alternative Reference: PP-08148464
Application Received: Wed 02 Oct 2019
Application Validated: Wed 20 Nov 2019
Address: Hill Barton Farm Hill Barton Road Exeter EX1 3PR
Proposal: Outline application for up to 200 dwellings (Approval sought for details of access only, with scale, layout, appearance and landscaping all reserved for future consideration).
Application Type: Outline Planning Permission
Case Officer: Michael Higgins
Ward: Pinhoe
Applicant Name: Mr Luke Salter
Applicant Address: Cliff Barton Sowden Lane Lympstone
Environmental Assessment Requested: No
​Impact: Adding 200 'dwellings' will mean an additional 200+ people and X amount of vehicles replacing the current fields and hedgerows. The increase in general pollution and noise will be greatly increased. It is unclear of how many trees will be planted per dwelling or person. The existing hedgerows will be maintained and improved.

Construction of 20 dwellings, parking and associated external works to include 7 affordable dwellings

23/12/2019

Plans: Map of trees
Plans: Tree survey
Reference: 19/1384/FUL
Alternative Reference: PP-08162022
Application Received: Thu 03 Oct 2019
Application Validated: Thu 07 Nov 2019
Address: The Vines Gipsy Lane Exeter Devon EX1 3RL
Proposal: Construction of 20 dwellings, parking and associated external works to include 7 affordable dwellings.
Application Type: Full Planning Permission
Case Officer: Leigh Powell
Ward: Pinhoe
Applicant Name: Mr Jenvey And Ms Brace
Agent Name: Mr Andrew Tibble
Agent Company Name: Angus Meek Architects
Agent Address: Cedar Yard 290A Gloucester Road Bristol BS7 8PD
Environmental Assessment Requested: No
Impact: Unknown as the plans only show the survey and layout of the trees within the area. It is likely that one or more trees / hedgerows will be removed to accommodate the proposal. Due the layout of the area it is likely that bats would be present.  There is already heavy redevelopment North (Tithebarn way) that has seen a huge loss of established hedgerows. As such a lot of the wildlife has now been forced to vacate anywhere else nearby - including this site. A full wildlife survey should also be carried out to ensure no endangered or sensitive species are impacted. The RSPB have commented and requested a minimum of 20 swift boxes.

The photos are very limited due to the type of roads. As you can see there is already high amounts of redevelopment close by - so any further reduction to the fauna and flora would be highly negative. Careful planning and consideration for the wildlife should be the priority here.

Outline planning application for the construction of up to 24 dwellings (Use Class C3) - Means of access to be determined only (All other matters reserved)

Plans: Map of general area
​Reference: 19/1465/OUT
Alternative Reference: PP-08226049
Application Received: Mon 21 Oct 2019
Application Validated: Mon 21 Oct 2019
Address: Land Adjoining Exeter Road Topsham Exeter EX3 0LY
Proposal: Outline planning application for the construction of up to 24 dwellings (Use Class C3) - Means of access to be determined only (All other matters reserved).
Application Type: Outline Planning Permission
Case Officer: Michael Higgins
Ward: Topsham
Agent Name: Mr David Seaton
Agent Company Name: PCL Planning Ltd
Agent Address: 13A-15A Old Park Avenue Exeter EX1 3WD
Environmental Assessment Requested: No
Impact: It is unclear on how many trees / plants are expected to be planted in conjunction with the 24 dwellings. It is also unclear of how much of the surrounding hedgerows will be at risk with the proposal. It would be seriously negative if any of the existing hedgerows are damaged or removed for this application.

The planning information does not go into enough detail regards the surrounding hedgerows or what new trees and plants would provided. There is already a fairly new housing estate next to it - unsure of how built up this is. Please leave your comments below - they are all welcome.

Plans: Map of trees to be felled
Reference: 19/1621/FUL
Alternative Reference: PP-08248032
Application Received: Mon 18 Nov 2019
Application Validated: Mon 18 Nov 2019
Determination Deadline: Mon 17 Feb 2020​
Address: Whipton Barton House Vaughan Road Exeter Devon EX1 3JN
Proposal: Demolition of existing buildings and construction of 92 apartments, access and parking, landscaping and associated infrastructure/highway works.
Application Type: Full Planning Permission
Case Officer: Michael Higgins
Ward: Mincinglake And Whipton
Applicant Name: Mr Robin Thorne
Agent Name: Mr Nick Childs
Agent Company Name: Childs Sulzmann Architects
Agent Address: 9th Floor, Colston Tower Colston Street Bristol BS1 4XE
Environmental Assessment Requested: No
Impact: Approximately 15 mature trees of different species will be felled if the development goes ahead. One of these trees is a Blue atlas cedar which is an endangered species. The increase in people and reduction of trees would be highly negative for this busy part of Exeter.

As you can see - there are a lot of established and mature trees here. Most of these would be felled to make room for the new block of flats. Please leave your comments below - they are all welcome. But more importantly - if you are a resident of Exeter please leave a comment on the Exeter planning website. 
Thank you
