The document outlines South Derbyshire District Council's proposed Preferred Growth Strategy for housing and employment development between 2008-2028. It proposes:
- Building 12,700 new homes, with 6,700 located around the Derby Urban Area.
- Accommodating growth in Swadlincote and larger villages like Hatton.
- Potential expansion of two strategic employment sites: Dove Valley Business Park and the Derby Global Technology Cluster.
- Reviewing the Green Belt boundary to identify land that could meet long-term development needs beyond 2028.
The council is seeking public comments on the strategy by December 21st to help shape the upcoming draft Local Plan.

Community Infrastructure Levy- Helen Martin, RTPI West Midlands CPDDesign South East
The document provides background information on Dudley's process of moving from planning obligations to a Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) to help fund infrastructure needed to support planned growth. It discusses: 1) growth predictions and existing planning obligations approach; 2) reasons for moving to CIL due to viability issues and legal tests; 3) work done to identify infrastructure needs, funding gaps, and viability of potential CIL rates; and 4) next steps and timetable to adopt a CIL charging schedule. The CIL aims to strike a balance between funding infrastructure and development viability across the area.
Presentation on how some of the lessons learned from 30 years of planning and development in Arlington and elsewhere, with specific attention to transit oriented development and walkable urbanism, could be applied to the Bailey’s Crossroads area in Fairfax County, Virginia. This area is presently a typical suburban commercial area that is in a high growth market and likely to be served by improved public transit in the near future. Discussion included how to use public-private partnerships and how to “reality test” the economic and financial feasibility of possible planning concepts. Also underscores the importance of and possible methods of altering the parking paradigm in these types of suburban areas if they wish to become more attractive, sustainable and green urban places.
The document discusses the Grantham Area Action Plan (GAAP), which will guide development in Grantham over the next 15 years. It outlines the GAAP's objectives to enhance Grantham's environment, infrastructure, and services. The GAAP identifies sites for housing, employment, retail, and open spaces. There is discussion of ensuring new development considers traffic, flooding risks, and impacts on historic assets. Concerns are raised that plans for a new housing development do not sufficiently address infrastructure needs or protect the setting of a historic house. Both support and objections to sites in the GAAP are mentioned.
The Ames Shovel Works site in Easton, Massachusetts underwent a miraculous transformation from an abandoned historic industrial site into a mixed-use development through a consensus approach and public-private partnership between the developer and town. The partnership addressed the community's need for affordable housing and solved its wastewater issues by building a municipal wastewater treatment plant on site. The development was made financially viable through various funding sources including historic preservation grants and tax incentives while carefully preserving the historic buildings through a sensitive master planning process.

Benefits focused portfolio management - beyond project delivery!Matt Williams
During his many years of working with project delivery organisations, Matt has observed that the outcome of numerous projects was not consistent with the capital investment value or the benefits expected by stakeholders. A common theme across these projects was a disconnect between the strategic objectives of executive management and the remit of the delivery team, who are focused on managing projects and delivering the scope of work.
This presentation will explore the emergence of Benefits-Focused Portfolio Management as a methodology which encomapsses tradtional management methods, but adds emphasis to the collaboration of all stakeholders in the pursuit of organisational goals. In particular, a structured approach for managing business endeavours to deliver change and benefits commensurate with investment value will be discussed.

This document compares Rollet factor analysis and pole-zero identification for assessing stability in microwave amplifiers. Rollet factor analysis determines if a circuit could exhibit negative resistance for any passive source/load impedances, but does not guarantee oscillation. Pole-zero identification directly tests stability by identifying unstable poles. It can predict stability over a range of fixed impedances or for large signal regimes, and can verify the Rollet proviso by identifying internal instabilities. The document provides examples of incorrect Rollet factor use and emphasizes always verifying the Rollet proviso, especially for multistage amplifiers, using pole-zero identification.

Preferred growth strategy summary presentation
1. Preferred Growth Strategy
YOUR VIEWS ARE IMPORTANT
Welcome. We are seeking your views on the Council’s proposed Preferred Growth
Strategy for future house building and employment in South Derbyshire up to 2028.
This will form the basis of our new Local Plan and is in alignment with those of
Amber Valley Borough Council and Derby City Council, with whom we share a
Housing Market Area with.
The Preferred Growth Strategy proposes:
• A refined vision and strategy for development in South Derbyshire
• The number of new houses we propose to deliver by 2028
• The location of strategic sites to deliver them
• Two potential strategic scale employment developments
• The possibility of ‘safeguarding’ land within the
• Nottingham-Derby Green Belt
We have more work to do before we can publish a draft Local Plan – particularly in
assessing the likely impacts on schools and roads. Nevertheless, we believe it is
important to hear your views prior to our plans becoming more fixed next year.
2. Preferred Growth Strategy
How much housing development should we plan for?
South Derbyshire District Council, along with Derby City and Amber Valley, has jointly commissioned a ‘Housing
Requirement Study’.
This study concludes that an appropriate scale of housing growth between 2008-2028 for the Derby Housing Market Area
(HMA) is around 33,700 dwellings.
The three Local Authorities considered this figure further to decide how it could most sustainably be distributed. The
proposed split reflects the fact that Derby City can only accommodate 12,000 dwellings during the plan period. A large
proportion of the housing need is required to be met in close proximity to the Derby Urban Area.
Proposed Scale of Housing and Local Authority Distribution
Local Authority Target Of which extensions to the Derby Urban Area
Amber Valley 9,000 530
Derby City 12,000 N/A
South Derbyshire 12,700 6,700
Total 33,700 7,230
In planning for an additional 12,700 dwellings in South Derbyshire the Council needs to take the following into account:
• Dwellings which have already been completed since 1st April 2008; and
• Unimplemented planning permissions for dwellings as at 1st April 2012. Unimplemented sites already allocated
in the South Derbyshire Local Plan 1998.
Taking the above into account, South Derbyshire needs around 5,560 dwellings.
3. Preferred Growth Strategy
Where should growth be located within South Derbyshire?
Around the Derby Urban Area (DUA) :
Due to the proximity to the City of Derby, a significant proportion of the housing is proposed to
be met on sites which are physically adjacent to the City – reflecting the availability of
deliverable development options.
In general, our transport assessment work indicates that road congestion around the City is a
key issue. There appears to be more scope for serving major new development by a choice of
transport modes to the south and south east of the City. The Highways Agency have
expressed concerns about additional development to the west of the A38 in advance of being
able to implement grade separation improvements to key junctions on the A38.
School place planning is similarly a key issue. With John Port Secondary at Etwall being near
capacity with limited scope to expand, it appears that directing development to the south and
south east of the City is likely to prove a more manageable strategy, although secondary
schools here also face serious capacity constraints.
Development to the south and south east of the City is also capable of being contained within
firm southerly defensible boundaries offered by the A50.
4. Preferred Growth Strategy
Where should growth be located within South Derbyshire?
Around Swadlincote and the Villages:
There is a need to accommodate growth in the Swadlincote urban area
to support the continuing revival of the town and to encourage
regeneration. There will be a need for expanded and/or new primary
and secondary schools across Swadlincote and Woodville. Further
detailed assessment of the likely effects of new developments on roads
will be needed.
Hatton is a sizable village which offers a range of services and
facilities. Housing development in Hatton would have the potential to
facilitate relief from HGV traffic on Station Road and contribute towards
the planned flood defences.
5. Preferred Growth Strategy
Strategic Employment Development
The Local Plan will need to assess the requirement for additional employment land to accompany future housing
growth. Work is currently underway on this and it is not yet known what provision is required or how it should be
distributed.
In the meantime two potential strategic scale employment developments merit inclusion in this consultation. These can
be seen on the previous maps.
Dove Valley Business Park – Site for exceptionally large individual employment developments:
• Dove Valley Park is an existing employment site at Foston.
• It is allocated in the adopted Local Plan for industry and business use and some 19 hectares remains.
• There may be a need to find room to accommodate exceptionally large single occupier employment units and this
site has the potential to expand onto adjacent land to the north, providing a further 24 hectares, for this purpose.
Extension to Derby Global Technology Cluster:
• The Global Technology Cluster (GTC) is a proposed business development of around 90 hectares at Sinfin Moor in
Derby, on a site that is currently allocated for development in the City of Derby Local Plan.
• It is intended to offer a hi-tech location to small and medium sized enterprises with workspaces, offices, teaching,
conference and catering facilities.
• There may be potential to extend the proposed GTC southwards across the South Derbyshire administrative
boundary towards the A50. The area within South Derbyshire would potentially measure some 30 hectares.
Green Belt:
• South Derbyshire District Council has a small part of the Nottingham-Derby Green Belt within its boundaries (see the
previous maps).
• Given the size and growth needs of Derby, it is important to review whether likely future development pressures
(beyond 2028) are capable of being accommodated without the need to delete Green Belt land in and around the
Derby Urban area.
• One consideration is the possible ‘safeguarding’ of land within the Green Belt to meet longer-term development
needs stretching well beyond the plan period.
We welcome your comments on the Green Belt.
