Disproportionate burden assessment for Colchester Conservation Area 4
Scope
The council’s Local Plan Committee has resolved that a six-week public consultation shall be carried out concerning Colchester Conservation Area 4: North Station Road and Environs. Views are sought on the revised character appraisal and management proposals, as well as a minor extension to the boundary of the conservation area which is proposed by the report.The publication of the revised report enables the public to review and comment on its content. The comments will be reported back to the Local Plan Committee who will then consider adopting the revised document.
Benefits of creating an accessible version
The benefits of creating a HTML version of this PDF would be:- A fully accessible version for all users to access
- An easily searchable indexable version
Burden placed on the organisation
The report is a lengthy document (140 pages) which includes information in the form of maps and photographs. We have estimated that it would take a disproportionate amount of content designer's time to create an HTML version of this PDF.Contributing factors
Other factors relevant to this decision are:- Interest in the documents is likely to be limited as those with an interest are likely to be localised and limited in number.
- We will continue to assist with accessible versions on request.
Assessment
Having considered the estimated effort involved in creating an accessible version, along with the low estimated demand, we have concluded that the work involved would be a poor use of staff time. This represents a disproportionate burden on the organisation.View the Colchester Conservation Area 4: North Station Road and Environs documents
