Between the 30th of April and the 10th of June 2018 the Council is consulting on a proposed new conservation area between Maldon Road and Butt Road, Colchester.
The Council's Planning Policy Service has recently undertaken a series of field studies to inform consideration of creating a new conservation. The aim of such an analysis is to consider the following:-
- Does the study area exhibit a character special enough to warrant statutory designation as a conservation area? [The Appraisal] [positive contributors]. It concludes it does.
- What local issues currently exist within the proposed conservation area that could harm its special character [negative impacts]
- What steps does the Council propose to encourage the preservation and enhancement of the character in the proposed Conservation Area? [the Management Proposals and Townscape Actions]
The subsequent analysis is described in a Draft Appraisal and Management Proposals document the content of which was approved by the Council's Local Plan Committee on 19th March 2018 for Public Consultation.
