St Philips supports the introduction of a new set of requirements to ensure high quality design and the creation of beautiful places in line with Government guidance. However, a number of specific comments are made on the policy as drafted:
• The provision of tree lined streets (item c) should be subject to highway authority agreement, and where appropriate, their adoption. In St Philips’ experience, local
highway authorities do not want trees in immediate proximity of the street due to management concerns or liabilities.
• The point on house types and tenures (item l) is repetition of policy material set out at Policy HC1 and is therefore unnecessary.
