Re: Agenda Item 6 – Community Governance and Polling Arrangement Reviews

In accordance with the procedure for public participation, Mr Julian Wallbank on behalf of South Darley Parish Council made a statement on the Community Governance and Polling Arrangement Reviews.

Re: Agenda Item 8 - Development of small Solar Farms on Council owned land

Letter submitted from Tansley Parish Council

In Law the Development Plan is a document adopted under the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, a Legal Document. Planning Law requires that applications are determined in accordance with the Development Plan (NPPF 2021) Decisions made should reflect relevant obligations and statutory requirements. The Equalities Act 2010 is also an important issue which should be part of the ‘Plan’ and taken into account by decision takers.

 

Page 104 of the Officers Report for the above Council meeting contains a Report by APSE ENERGY Report V2. This independent Report examines potential sites ‘owned’ by DDDC, for a future solar farm.

 

Watery Lane Ashbourne which has been designated as a Travellers Site, is now to be considered as a Solar Farm.

 

The Report states that residents of Ashbourne may prefer a Solar Farm to a Travellers Site!

 

Whilst it is commendable to be seeking a location for a Solar Farm, the Local Authority have a legal duty to the travellers.

 

Whilst the Local Plan does refer to Climate Change, there is no allocation of land within the plan, for a Solar Farm, however there is an allocation of land for Travellers Site, as previously stated the Local Plan is a legal document.

 

Previously land at Watery Lane Ashbourne was deemed impossible to develop as a Travellers Site because it might be needed for the proposed Ashbourne by pass, residents were lead to believe the land belonged to DCC? Is this different land? however It now appears that the much needed by pass will not impact on this, Local Plan Site.

 

For Councillors to accept the recommendation to use land at Watery Lane as a Solar Farm would be contrary to Policy HC4 of the legally adopted Local Plan, HC4 states that’ the District council will safeguard 0.3 HA of land at Watery Lane Ashbourne as identified in the Local Plan Policies Map for at least 6 Travellers Pitches, the District Council will safeguard this authorized site’ (Policies map Inset 5 ref HC6).

 

Councillors’ are all aware that the Travellers have stated consistently their need to be near other family members in the South of the Dales, for support and for health reasons.

 

The Equalities Act could appear to being ignored by the Local Authority.

 

The designated land at Watery Lane Ashbourne is now available for its designated use, as a Travellers Site, DDDC need to comply with their own Local Plan.

Minutes:

The Policy and Economic Development Manager introduced a report in the context of the approved Economic Recovery Plan, Corporate Plan and Economic Plan for the Derbyshire Dales, seeking approval for submission of the District Council’s Investment Plan for the Government’s UK Shared Prosperity Fund.

 

To access the Fund, the District Council must submit an Investment Plan to include: proposed interventions; measurable outputs and outcomes; state how projects/activities will be procured and delivered; and set out governance arrangements. As lead local authority for UKSPF, the District Council must put in place appropriate project assessment; contracting; programme management, monitoring and evaluation procedures.  The deadline for submission was 1 August 2022. Payments are expected from October 2022.

 

As a result of the work of Officers, Partners and Councillors a summary plan had been prepared (as agenda item 5, Annex 1) setting out a deliverable package of UKSPF interventions based on identified priorities. It was anticipated that, in accordance with UKSPF guidance, there will be a mixed approach including in-house delivery, commissioned services and procured contracts. It was noted that potential outputs and outcomes were indicative at this stage and subject to finalisation of the plan prior to submission.

 

A summary of proposed interventions, activities and required funding is set was set out in Table 1 of the report.

 

The proposed activities had been costed through a combination of methods including: independent cost assessment for the public realm works; costs of delivering similar schemes in the past e.g. Peak Rural Innovation Programme and; using existing delivery costs as a basis for initiatives proposed for extension.

 

During debate Councillor Peter O’Brien proposed two amendments, these were seconded by Councillor Clare Gamble and are included below:

 

Amendment 1

That the element of the public realm programme relating to that section of Bakewell Road between the proposed cinema and Crown Square be deleted and that relevant funding be redistributed to one or more of the following:

 

a.)     An increase in value of the Community Resilience Fund and an increase in the maximum grant to £20,000.

b.)     A scoping report to examine the issues regarding the infrastructure capacity of the electricity grid to accommodate green energy investment.

c.)     An accelerated delivery of the Electric Vehicle Charging Point programme, focused on the more rural areas of the district.

Household Support Fund pdf icon PDF 120 KB

To inform Members of the outcome of the initial Household Support Fund period 16th October 2021 to 31st March 2022 and the proposals for the Household Support Fund 2 for Period 1st April 2022 to 30th September 2022.

Minutes:

The Director of Regulatory Services introduced a report informing Members of the outcome of the initial Household Support Fund period 16 October 2021 to 31 March 2022 and seeking approval for the proposals as laid out in the report for the Household Support Fund 2 for period 1st April 2022 to 30September 2022.

 

The Household Support Fund directly supports households experiencing financial difficulties relating to rent arrears, utility bills and other debts. Such issues can have a long lasting detrimental impact on the ability of residents to maintain rental payments and can lead to homelessness. The provision of the Fund therefore meets the Council’s objective of reducing homelessness.

 

There is no revenue budget for this expenditure so it is necessary to seek approval for a supplementary revenue estimate of £100,000 in 2022/23. However, as indicated in the report, the expenditure will be funded by grants (£84,000 from the Household Support Fund allocation and £16,000 from homelessness prevention grant).  Expenditure will be monitored by officers to ensure that it does not exceed the grant available.

 

It was moved by Councillor Mike Ratcliffe, seconded by Councillor Garry Purdy and

 

RESOLVED (Unanimously)

 

1.  The outturn for the first round is noted.

2.  That approval is given for the delivery of round 2 as set out in the report.

3.  That approval is given to a supplementary revenue estimate of £100,000 in 2022/23 for expenditure associated with the Household Support Fund, to be funded by grants (£84,000 from the Household Support Fund allocation and £16,000 from homelessness prevention grant).

 

The Chairman declared the motion CARRIED.

Development of Small Solar Farms on Council Owned Land pdf icon PDF 497 KB

To present the findings of a technical and financial feasibility study carried out on five Council owned sites, exploring the possibility of developing small solar PV farms and seek approval for the necessary next steps in order to move a single viable site, at Watery Lane, to ‘phase two’ with an ambition of completing the scheme towards the end of 2024.

Additional documents:

Minutes:

The Director of Regulatory Services introduced a report presenting the findings of a technical and financial feasibility study carried out on five Council owned sites, exploring the possibility of developing small solar PV farms. The report sought approval for the necessary next steps in order to move a single viable site, at Watery Lane, Ashbourne to ‘phase two’ with an ambition of completing this scheme towards the end of 2024.

 

The first part of the ‘phase two’ work is acceptance by the Council of a grid connection offer. As the grid connection situation changes regularly and capacity can be short, this is one of the early priorities for action. In simple terms a grid connection is not necessary where there is an offtaker, such as Severn Trent, who is willing to buy all of the generating asset’s output. However, if the offtaker’s business closes or relocates for any reason, the Council will be left with a ‘stranded asset’ i.e. a solar farm which cannot get its electricity to any buyers. For this reason, it is almost universal practice where public money is involved to go for a grid connection, even if it is considered unnecessary at the start. Then, if the situation changes, the Council would always have the option to switch to sales on the wholesale market via the grid.

 

During debate, a question was raised as to whether the Solar Farm would be on the Allotment ground, the Director of Regulatory Services confirmed it would not be on the Allotment ground and grazing rights could also continue on the Solar Farm ground.

 

During debate, Councillor David Hughes suggested a letter be written to Ofgem re connections into the National Grid asking for an upgrade to rural infrastructure to accept smaller and larger developments.

 

The Officer recommendations were moved by Councillor David Chapman with the following amendment:

 

That authority be given to write to Ofgem to consider improving access for smaller and larger developments to feed into the National Grid.’

 

This was seconded by Councillor Mark Wakeman and

 

RESOLVED (Unanimously)

 

1.  That the report attached in Appendix One and the associated business and financial cases in Appendix Two are received.

2.  That Council approves the recommendation in the attached report to move to ‘phase two’ of development work in respect of the Watery Lane, Ashbourne site.

3.  That approval is given to a supplementary revenue budget of £40,000 for consultancy relating to the next stage of work required, to be financed from the General Reserve.

4.   That authority be given to write to Ofgem to consider improving access for smaller and larger developments to feed into the National Grid.

 

The Chairman declared the motion CARRIED.

Interim Electric Vehicle Strategy pdf icon PDF 82 KB

This report presents an interim high level strategy setting out Council priorities and approach for encouraging the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) and the installation of EV charging infrastructure in the Derbyshire Dales.

Additional documents:

Minutes:

The Director of Regulatory Services introduced a report presenting an interim high level strategy setting out Council priorities for approval and the approach for encouraging the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) and the installation of EV charging infrastructure in the Derbyshire Dales.

 

The interim strategy is intended to be directional, a high level vision rather than setting out a plan for delivery. It covers the period 2022-2024 and enables the Council to apply for funding from the On-street Residential Chargepoint Scheme in 2022/23

 

Officers will work in collaboration with DCC going forward, including a potential bid to the £450m LEVI (Low Emission Vehicle Infrastructure) fund. This will be launched later in 2022/23 including £50m of multi-year resource funding for local authorities, to enable them to have dedicated resource for the planning and delivery of local EV charging infrastructure in their areas. The funding will help provide the staff needed to deliver these projects, in all parts of the country.  Details of the fund are not yet available but it is likely that a fully assessed and costed scheme, including investment from the private sector, would need to be developed prior to any application. The demands and needs assessment currently being undertaken by DCC is the first part of this scheme development.  Indicative timings suggest that the LEVI bid will be submitted in Spring/Summer 2023 with mobilisation of contract and delivery of charging points from late 2024 onwards.

 

It was moved by Councillor Martin Burfoot, seconded by Councillor Tom Donnelly and

 

RESOLVED (Unanimously)

 

1.  That the interim strategy is approved.

2.  That the Council continues to collaborate with partner local authorities on a more detailed strategic approach to charge point installation and plan for delivery.

 

The Chairman declared the motion CARRIED.

Additional documents:

Minutes:

The Director of Corporate and Customer Services introduced a report submitting the recommendations of the Constitution Working Group in respect of proposed amendments to various parts of the Constitution and to seek the Council’s approval and adoption of the proposed revisions.

 

In introducing the working group’s recommendations, the Director reported that the full Council would continue to take all decisions in respect of new strategies or policies or where proposals represented a major departure from agreed policy. Within the proposed framework, policy committees would have authority to review and develop policy and make amendments to policies other than where the Council had reserved that function to itself or where the change was so politically significant that it would require a decision of the full Council.

The Constitution Working Group recommended the establishment of a Scrutiny Committee. The group have prepared draft terms of reference and procedure rules for the operation of the Scrutiny Committee, the functions are summarised as:

·         Holding Policy Committees to account for decisions taken – either through call-in prior to a decision being implemented or through post implementation review of a policy, procedure or service change

·         Developing or reviewing an existing policy, procedure or way of working within the Council

·         Monitoring and reviewing the performance indicators in respect of service provision

·         Scrutiny of external bodies

 

The Director of Corporate and Customer Services thanked all members of the Constitution Working Group for their input and Councillor Hughes for assisting with the development of the Scrutiny Procedure Rules.

 

It was moved by Councillor Tony Morley, seconded by Councillor Mike Ratcliffe and

 

RESOLVED

 

1. That the functions of the Council be confirmed as all new strategies and policies, those matters reserved by the law and any matters that the Council resolves to reserve to itself; as well as responsibility for the approval of the following specific strategies and policies:

a) Revenue and Capital Budgets, including determination of the Council Tax and the Local Council Tax Support Scheme

b) The Corporate Plan

c) The Performance Plan

d) The Crime and Disorder Reduction Strategy

e) The Development Plan documents and the plans and alterations which together comprise the Development Plan, known as the Local Plan

g) The Medium Term Financial Strategy

h) The plan or strategy for the control of the Council’s borrowing, investments or capital expenditure or for determining the Council’s minimum revenue provision.

2.  That the Policy Committees be authorised to review and approve amendments to existing policy matters that are not reserved to Council or delegated to officers relating to the functions within service areas listed in their respective terms of reference at Part 3 of the Constitution.
