SCHEDULE ATTACHED TO APPLICATION & DECISION NO: PA10/08142

REASON(S) FOR APPROVAL:

Regeneration of Hayle Harbour through a mixed use development is supported by proposal TV-D of the saved Penwith Local Plan. The proposals will regenerate a significant area of the harbour to the wider benefit of the social, environmental and economic situation of Hayle. The proposed supermarket will address an identified need to retain main food shopping trips within Hayle and to reduce the existing significant leakage of main food shopping trips to retail centres outside Hayle. The proposal therefore accords with the sustainable development aims and objectives of the National Planning Policy Framework in reducing the need to travel by private car, addressing accessibility, promoting sustainable economic development and delivering a high quality safe environment which links to the surrounding townscape

The proposed supermarket would be in the sequentially preferable edge of centre location given that the assessment of alternative sites has not found a suitable town centre site, the proposal thus accords with paragraph 24 of the National Planning Policy Framework. The proposed supermarket retail sales area and split between comparison and convenience goods will address the evidence based need for a supermarket in Hayle which is of a scale that will retain main food shopping trips within the town and promote choice and competition. The three retail units at Foundry Yard, the retail unit at the north boundary of the supermarket car park and the restaurant will add choice to the Foundry retail offer as well as acting as destinations drawing visitors to South Quay to other parts of the quay than the supermarket. The proposed retail offer will divert trade from other retail outlets in Hayle but not to an extent that will harm vitality and viability. The regeneration benefits and the retention of shopping trips within Hayle will increase footfall which in association with significant improvements to the public realm, including the provision of a footbridge, to improve access and permeability for pedestrians and cyclists will promote linked trips between the site and Foundry centre and the shops at Penpol Terrace. This will mitigate the impact of trade draw and support vitality and viability as well as competition and choice within Hayle. The proposals thus accord with paragraphs 24 and 26 of the National Planning Policy Framework, Regional Planning Guidance for the South West (RGP10) Policy EC6, saved Cornwall Structure Plan policies 11, 14, 16, and 25 and saved Penwith Local Plan policies TV16, TV17 and proposal TV-D.

The proposed residential units are supported in this location by Penwith Local Plan proposal TV-D and will be within easy walking distance of a wide range of services and shops as well as bus stops and the train station. The proposed dwellings are in a sustainable location and accord with the aims of paragraphs 49 and 50 of the National Planning Policy Framework, saved Cornwall Structure Plan policies 3 and 10 and saved Penwith Local Plan policies TV1 and H3.

The proposed layout of the site places the supermarket closest to Foundry Square where the supermarket can best support the retail centre. The centrally located car park and dwellings are visually linked through a common theme of an industrial character and use of a simple palette of materials. The proposal has regard to the industrial character of this part of the Hayle Conservation Area. Aspects such as the supermarket orientation towards the retail centre detract from the legibility and understanding of the historic linkages to Foundry Yard and Harvey's Foundry, however interpretation will mitigate this adverse impact and enable understanding of the site's past to a wider audience than is currently possible.

The proposals will harm the authenticity and integrity of the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site in terms of a reduction in the ability to understand the spatial arrangements of the harbour, especially with regard to the slipways and historic form of South Quay. Construction over infilled parts of Carnsew Channel will not permit the exposure of historic slipways and listed harbour walls thus the opportunity to improve the legibility of the site will not be available for the lifetime of those parts of the proposed development over the slipways and Channel. The buried archaeology and listed structures will be preserved as sub-surface heritage assets and interpretation will allow understanding of the historic site layout as relevant to the WHS. Overall the development will result in harm to the Outstanding Universal Values of the WHS thus does not accord with the WHS Management Plan policies 4c and 8b. However the significant public benefits arising from regeneration outweigh the harm to OUV. The heritage benefits of the reintroduction of sluicing and interpretation will in part mitigate the harm and will enable a greater understanding of the significance of the World Heritage Site and accords with the WHS Management Plan policy 7c in terms of retaining and re-using important components of the site. The proposal thus accords with the provisions of paragraph 133 of the National Planning Policy Framework.

The uplift in land level on the Grade II Listed South Quay will result in harm to the authenticity and integrity of the Listed Building and Port of Hayle core area of the WHS. However as there is in principle support for development on the site set out at Proposal TV-D of the Penwith Local Plan it must be acknowledged that to comply with the flood defence requirements of the National Planning Policy Framework, any development on the quays will require land uplift. The proposal thus accords with the exceptions expressed in paragraphs 93, 99, 132 and 133 of the National Planning Policy Framework in that the nature of the site precludes development unless some level of harm is accepted. The development of South Quay will encourage greater public access to the site and stimulate activity which will reflect the fact that the historic use of the site generated significant activity. This activity will enhance the character and authenticity of the site which is currently underused with low levels of activity. Interpretation and the improved public realm will encourage access to the whole site from where a greater understanding of the spatial arrangements of the harbour can be achieved than is currently possible. On balance it is considered that the harm to the authenticity and integrity of the site and hence the OUV of the WHS is outweighed by the significant public benefits of regeneration within the harbour. The option for an alternative heritage led scheme to come forward within the medium term as set out within paragraph 133 of the National Planning Policy Framework is unlikely to occur given the past failure to deliver development on the site at a time when policy constraint was less onerous and that the current property market and economic conditions do not make anything other then a supermarket led development viable in terms of delivering long held regeneration aspirations of the local community and Development Plan policy.

The proposals will result in an increase in vehicular trips for which improvements to the local highway network will mitigate to a level which will not result in significant harm to the safe and convenient use of the local highway network or the strategic road network. The proposal thus accords with the aims of paragraph 32 of the National Planning Policy Framework and saved Cornwall Structure Plan policies 27 and 28

The proposals accord with the sequential and exceptions tests of paragraph 103 of the National planning Policy Framework and its associated Technical Guidance document. The uplift in land will create a development platform which is not at risk of flooding for the lifetime of the development and the proposals will not result in increased flood risk off-site. The proposals contribute towards a wider flood prevention infrastructure and will facilitate strategic flood prevention measures for the wider urban area in the future. Surface water will be controlled to ensure that the receiving aquatic environment which is a County Wildlife Site which is linked to SSSIs does not become polluted to the detriment of water quality and the aquatic and littoral flora and fauna, The proposals thus accord with the aims of paragraph 109 of the National Planning Policy Framework, Regional Planning Guidance South West policies EN1 and RE2, saved Cornwall Structure Plan policies 2 and 3 and saved Penwith Local Plan policies CC7, CC8, GD4, CS4 and CS6.

The proposals, in other respects than surface drainage noted above, will not result in any significant harm to flora or fauna and planning conditions will ensure that the protected species are relocated. Mitigation measures will offset any harm to the site's ecology whilst planning conditions will ensure construction and operational stages protect biodiversity and habitats in general and especially the adjacent Sites of Special Scientific Interest, County Wildlife Site and nature reserves. The proposals thus accord with the aims and intentions of paragraph 109 of the National Planning Policy Framework, saved Cornwall Structure Plan policies 1 and 2 and saved Penwith Local Plan policies CC7, CC8 and CC9. The proposals are not considered to conflict with saved Cornwall Structure Plan policy 2 or saved Penwith Local Plan policy CC8 in terms of nature conservation or the aims of paragraph 109 of the National Planning Policy Framework or the advice within Circular 06/2005 (Biodiversity and Geological conservation - Statutory obligations and their impact within the planning system). Having regard to the Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC) and the Habitats Regulations 2010 it is considered that the proposals will have no significant impact on designated sites of ecological importance or protected species.
