3 Managing Environmental Resources 3 Managing Environmental Resources 3.0.1 The Core Strategy promotes environmentally sustainable design, including through zero carbon development, water efficiency, ecological enhancement, sustainable drainage, sustainable materials and the sustainable operation of developments. This section provides further details to supplement and implement the over-arching Core Strategy policy. 3.0.2 The Council's Sustainable Design SPD sets-out further detail regarding the operation of the policies in this section. 3.0.3 The council will review the requirements of the policies in this section and shall, where appropriate, up-date the requirements within a revised Sustainable Design SPD or other SPD. Implementing Core Strategy Policy This chapter helps implement the following Core Strategy Policies: Policy 10 Sustainable Design, Policy 15 Open Space and Green Infrastructure Policy DM 10 Sustainable Design and Construction Statements A. Development proposals are required to integrate best practice sustainable design standards, during design, construction and operation of the development. B. Developers (excluding applications for those applications considered to have no significant sustainability implications - see note 1 ) are required to submit a Sustainable Design and Construction Statement. The Statement should clearly set out how the application complies with relevant local, regional and national sustainable design and construction policies and guidance. The Statement shall include, where relevant, an Energy Statement demonstrating how the application complies with Core Strategy CO 2 reduction targets , and a BREEAM / Code for Sustainable Homes pre-assessment. C. Applications for those types of development excluded from Part B of this policy shall include details of sustainable design and construction considerations to a level of detail appropriate to the development. D. Applications for major developments are required to submit a Green Performance Plan detailing measurable outputs for the occupied building, particularly for energy consumption, CO 2 emissions and water use, and should set out arrangements for monitoring the progress of the plan over the first years of occupancy, as well as arrangements for enforcement in the event that agreed objectives are not met. 24 Islington Council Development Management Policies - Direction of Travel
3 Managing Environmental Resources E. Developers are required to support monitoring of the implementation of the Sustainable Design and Construction Statement, Green Performance Plan and/or other submitted details of sustainable design and construction considerations, by allowing council officers access to the development, submitting information to the council when requested, and through a financial contribution towards the council's monitoring costs. 3.0.4 Note 1 : Policy DM10 B does not apply to those householder applications, minor changes of use, extensions of less than 100m 2 and minor works, where there will be no new units, no intensification and no significant sustainable design and construction impacts. 3.0.5 The Sustainable Design and Construction Statement may be included within the Design and Access Statement, provided all necessary information is included and clearly stated, or it may be submitted as a separate document. 3.0.6 Minimum information requirements for the Statement, including which documents within the Statement are relevant to specific application types, will be set out within the Sustainable Design Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) and adopted within the council’s local validation requirements. Information supplied should be proportional to the scale of proposed development and allow the council to fully assess the proposals against relevant planning policies. 3.0.7 Surveys of recently completed buildings reveal substantial gaps between client and design expectations and delivered performance, especially energy performance. To close this gap Policy DM10 requires that all major developments should provide a ‘Green Performance Plan’ developed in consultation with the council. Based on the model provided by the Green Travel Plan, the Green Performance Plan should specify measurable outputs for the occupied building, particularly for energy consumption, CO 2 emissions and water use, and should set out arrangements for monitoring the progress of the plan over the first years of occupancy (e.g. using annual meter readings or Display Energy Certificates), as well as the arrangements for enforcement in the event that agreed objectives are not met. Further guidance on Green Performance Plans is provided in the Sustainable Design SPD. 3.0.8 Monitoring costs will be based on officer time required to undertake the monitoring. Further details in relation to monitoring will be set out in the Sustainable Design SPD. Policy DM 11 Sustainable materials, waste minimisation and construction impacts A. Applications for major developments are required to include a Green Procurement Plan detailing how materials have been selected to minimise environmental impacts over their lifecycle. Developments that involve significant use of concrete are required to submit an assessment of the feasibility of using low-impact forms of concrete, as part of the Green Procurement Plan.
