Conservation Area Consultation

The Council has been reviewing conservation areas designations and identifying new conservation areas. Whilst public consultation is not required in the preparation of the Conservation Area Appraisals and conservation area designation, the Council is keen for the appraisal documents to under go public scrutiny and therefore the Council is publishing the following Conservation Area Appraisals for consultation:

The consultation period on the following Conservation Area Appraisals runs for a six week period from Friday 20th January 2012 until 4.30pm Friday 2nd March 2012.

The consultation period on the following Conservation Area Appraisals ran for a six week period from Friday 16th December 2011 until 4.30pm Friday 27th January 2012 and is NOW CLOSED.

The Conservation Area Appraisal evaluates and records an area’s special architectural or historic interest, which the Council believes it is desirable to preserve or enhance. The consultation appraisals include the proposed conservation area boundary and specific character areas within it. It also identifies properties that may be subject to an Article 4 Direction, a process which removes certain permitted development rights and which will be subject to a further consultation process.

Links to the online copies can be found below, alternatively a hard copy of each Conservation Area Appraisal will be available at Freshwater library, at the relevant Parish Council Office, at County Hall Customer Services and at Seaclose Office Reception.
