I wonder who proof read this? Quite a high freeboard requirement!
8.13.2 The criteria for an FRA in Purbeck have been drawn up in agreement with the
Environment Agency. They make provision for the effects of climate change and
overtopping by waves in the coastal areas. To protect inhabitants of new buildings
from flooding, finished floor levels will need to be agreed. This should also include a
“freeboard” (sufficient gap) of 600m which allows additional protection against an
extreme flood event.
I was intrigued by the the fact that the 400 metre buffer around cliff tops in Durlston, shown on the map at 8.15.1 in which "Development of additional buildings, outbuildings, and extensions to buildings will not be permitted" includes most of the Pierhead site. Sounds a little over cautious to me. Wonder where it leaves the latest plans for the site.
And the Sea Rowing Club new boat house, any redevelopment of the poracabins on the Pier or the mismatch of houses at Peveril Point
has anybody else read it, or is that too much on a warm day?
Conservatives if elected, want to scrap regional spatial strategies and regional housing targets, so what is the point as it seems pretty obvious they will get in?
