Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Revised Redeposit draftNational Nature ReserveAreas of national and sometimes international importance which are owned or leased byEnglish Nature or managed in accordance with their wishes. The essential characteristic ofsuch areas is that they are primarily used for nature conservation.Natura 2000Natura 2000, created by the European Union, is a network made up of Special ProtectionAreas and Special Areas of Conservation. These designations form an internationallyimportant network of wildlife sites.Permitted DevelopmentThe Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 1995 permitscertain minor alterations and extensions to be undertaken without the need to apply forplanning permission from the Local Planning Authority. Such development is known aspermitted development.Planning Policy Guidance Notes / Statements (PPG/S)PPGs are issued by the Government, after consultation, to provide guidance to LocalPlanning Authorities and others on Government Policy and the operation of the planningsystem. PPGs are subject to periodic review. The determination of planning applications andformulation of Planning Policies must have regard to these statements of Government Policy.These are gradually being replaced by Planning Policy Statements (PPS)Previously Developed LandFor the purposes of this Local Plan the definition of previously developed land is that whichis contained in PPG 3 Annex C:‘Previously developed land is that which is or was occupied by a permanent structure(excluding agricultural or forestry buildings), and associated fixed surface infrastructure. Thedefinition covers the curtilage of the development. Previously developed land may occur inboth built-up and rural settings. The definition includes defence buildings and land used formineral extraction and waste disposal where provision for restoration has not been madethrough development control procedures.The definition excludes land and buildings that are currently in use for agricultural orforestry purposes, and land in built-up areas which has not been developed previously (e.g.parks, recreation grounds, and allotments - even though these areas may contain certainurban features such as paths, pavilions and other buildings). Also excluded is land that waspreviously developed but where the remains of any structure or activity have blended into thelandscape in the process of time (to the extent that it can reasonably be considered as partof the natural surroundings), and where there is a clear reason that could outweigh the reuseof the site - such as its contribution to nature conservation - or it has subsequently beenput to an amenity use and can not be regarded as requiring redevelopment.’Primary Employment AreasPrimary Employment Areas are designated when the predominant use relates toemployment. Also included within this designation is land that has planning permissionand land allocated for employment use. Such areas are located within Carlisle, Longtown,Brampton and Dalston.Primary Leisure AreaPrimary Leisure Areas are the main focal points for leisure activities. Such locations includethe Sands Centre, Tullie House, the Sheepmount, community centres, other areas of publicopen space and parkland as well as privately owned leisure facilities. Such areas should beretained.144 September 2006
Carlisle District Local Plan 2001 - 2016 Revised Redeposit draftPrimary Residential AreasPrimary Residential Areas are housing areas within Carlisle, Longtown and Brampton. Theseareas are predominantly residential, and they contain a number of other uses normallyacceptable in housing areas such as churches, small shops and public houses.Primary Route NetworkThe Primary Route Network of Cumbria consists of the Motorway, trunk roads, and otherPrimary Roads. Within Carlisle District the Primary Route Network consists of the A7 towardsLongtown, the A689 and A69 towards Brampton and Newcastle, and the A595 towardsWigton, and the A74 to Scotland.Ramsar SiteRamsar sites are wetlands of international importance, particularly as waterfowl habitats.Ramsar sites are listed by the Secretary of State. The provisions of the Ramsar Conventionrequire the promotion of the conservation of the wetlands.Regionally Important Geological/Geomorphological Sites (RIGS)These are geological/geomorphological sites of local importance which complement thenational network of geological SSSI’s (see below). The aim of designation is to maintainand enhance specific features of rock and landform, and the dynamic natural processeswhich create them.Register of BattlefieldsSimilar to the Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest, the Register ofBattlefields identifies a limited number of areas of historic significance where importantbattles are sufficiently documented to be located on the ground. This register is compiled byEnglish Heritage.Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic InterestThis is a register, produced by English Heritage, which identifies parks and gardens of visualand/or historic interest. There is currently two designations within the District.Scheduled Ancient MonumentThe Secretary of State, advised by English Heritage, compiles a Schedule of AncientMonuments which, by reason of period, rarity, fragility, potential etc. appear to be ofnational importance. Provisions relating to scheduled ancient monuments are contained inthe Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979 and the National Heritage Act1983.Section 106 AgreementPlanning Agreements (or ‘Planning Obligations’) are made under Section 106 of the Townand Country Planning Act 1990. Agreements may be made between a Local PlanningAuthority and a land owner (often a developer) or may be entered into unilaterally by suchpersons. Agreements are usually employed to restrict the development or use of land inways which can not properly or conveniently be achieved by the imposition of conditions.Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI)Section 28 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 enables English Nature to designateareas of land which, by reason of their flora, fauna, or geological or physiographicfeatures, it is in the national interest to conserve. To protect SSSI’s from operations outsidethe scope of planning controls, English Nature specify to their owners and occupiers theoperations which they consider to be harmful to their conservation interest.September 2006 145
