3.4 Site Design Statement (SDS) All development must reflect the need to safeguard the quality of village life in Rivermeade, to protect, and to enhance, the character of its environmental assets. Successful design relies on effective contextual analysis to identify the characteristics of place - scale, character, rhythm, materials, opportunities, challenges and even the oddities in a particular streetscape. The aim should be to stimulate contemporary interpretation and place-making. This document suggests that all planning applications within Rivermeade should be preceded or accompanied by a Site Design Statement with accompanying contextual photographs and maps. This checklist is not intended to be prescriptive, since each proposal will have its own specific influences and requirements. An SDS should include the following: • Introduction - the applicant, the proposal, existing use and planning history if any. • Planning Requirements - County Development Plan, Local Area Plan,zoning, designations applicable to site or adjoining lands, protected structures, archaeological interest, National Monuments in vicinity • Development context – existing pattern language, neighbouring buildings, uses, character, materials, scale, rhythm, frontage widths, landscape, etc • The Site - Site dimensions, topography, orientation, overlooking, views and prospects drainage, plot ratio, site coverage, location and capacity of services and relevant planning conditions • Proposed Use - main issues, attractor/generator of activity, benefits, challenges • Urban Opportunity - identify benefits to village • Design Opportunities - identify the main design issue, including sustainable drainage proposals • Landscaping Opportunity - vegetation and landscape features • Vehicular and Pedestrian Opportunities – safe pedestrian routes and linkages • Preliminary Design Proposal - Summary of design aims, preliminary sketches including Before and After sketches of the streetscape 46 Rivermeade Village Development Framework Plan iCON Architecture | Urban Design | Conservation, with Cummins and Voortman 3
