Policy
3.5:
Meeting
the
needs
for
new
homes
for
those
of
retirement
age
Policy
3.5
seeks
to
allocate
land
at
Almsbury
Farm
for
new
homes
for
those
of
retirement
age.
However,
whilst
Paragraph
50
of
the
Framework
supports
the
provision
of
housing
for
older
people,
the
Policy
itself
does
not
provide
a
decision
maker
with
a
clear
indication
of
how
to
respond
to
a
development
proposal.
This
is
because,
over
the
course
of
nearly
one
and
a
half
pages,
it
includes
numerous
ambiguous
references.
These
include
the
following:
The
above
are
taken
from
just
the
first
five
lines
of
the
Policy.
There
are
many
other
ambiguous
references
in
the
fifty
plus
lines
that
follow.
Taken
as
a
whole,
the
Policy
doe
not
provide
a
decision
maker
with
a
clear
indication
of
how
to
respond
to
a
development
proposal.
It
does
not
meet
the
basic
conditions.
The
proposed
site
is
located
within
the
Winchcombe
Conservation
Area
and
is
adjacent
to
a
Listed
Building.
The
vague
and
ambiguous
nature
of
Policy
3.5
means
that
it
does
not
have
regard
to
the
need
to
ensure
that
irreplaceable
heritage
assets
will
be
conserved
in
a
manner
appropriate
to
their
significance.
I
note
that
this
results
in
conflict
within
the
Policy
itself.
Policy
3.5
is
neither
precise
nor
concise,
as
required
by
Planning
Practice
Guidance8.
It
does
not
meet
the
basic
conditions.
