SUMMARY:Bath Future City: Planning\, Development\, Sustainability and Community
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of talks on how we use Bath’s landscape and plan its urban growth to shape a sustainable future for the city. \nHear from speakers on wider landscape policy\, the need to reset the Local Plan\, the mechanisms for promoting exemplar new development\, and the role and power of community engagement in the planning process – how you can help to shape your city. You will also hear about Bath’s exciting new initiative\, Bath Landscape City\, and the role this will play in creating a greener\, more biodiverse and sustainable city for the future.  \nSpeakers: \nMatt McCabe – Cabinet Member for the Built Environment for BANES\nMatt will provide an overview of the planning policy context which sets the scene for future development; exploring topics covering the Greenbelt\, housing allocations\, the resetting of the Local Plan and the role that proactive public consultation has in shaping future plans for the city.  \nPhilip Haile from Transition Bath\nPhilip will offer an analysis of the limitations imposed by ‘Viability’\, and the National Planning Policy Framework in developing the Local Plan. This will include an examination of home energy efficiency standards\, embodied carbon\, affordable housing\, housing densities\, co-living spaces\, transport infrastructure\, community amenities\, green and open spaces\, and how these elements contribute to the creation of new housing developments and neighbourhoods.  \nPaul Pearce – the Green Infrastructure Programme Manager for BANES’ Landscape City Project\nFollowing the screening of a short film on the Bathscape Project which celebrates Bath’s unique landscape setting\, Paul will provide an overview of its exciting new initiative\, Bath: Landscape City\, as well as an outline of its Nature Recovery Strategy.  \nThere will be time for Q+A with our panel of speakers. \nRefreshments will be available. \nWe hope you will join us on Tuesday 11 March to celebrate Bath’s unique landscape\, while exploring the opportunities for communities to engage with the planning process and the resetting of the Local Plan in shaping the future city of Bath.  \n  \nBook your free ticket here.\nSuggested donation: £6
