2016-2021 |
Urban Area Significant off-site sewerage infrastructure will be required to serve the strategic locations in the Maidstone Urban Area. This is the case regardless of which sites are selected. The need for this infrastructure should be identified in policy terms in the Core Strategy
RSCs New and/or improved local sewerage infrastructure may also be required to serve the sites in the RSCs. However, this does not preclude any of the sites from future development. Southern Water will assess the sites when the site options are refined, the scale of development at each site is defined, and the sites are published in a draft development plan document. If capacity is insufficient, development of the site can still go ahead provided it connects to the sewerage system at the nearest point of adequate capacity. Southern Water will look to the planning authority to formulate appropriate planning policies that will ensure that this happens |
