Representation ID: 2130

Received: 15/02/2016

Respondent: Stockvale Group

Representation Summary:

The retention of the green space is paramount and greater legibility needs to be brought through to the High Street. Clearly the previous swimming pool site is a development opportunity and the STOCKVALE GROUP would seek that that this is of the highest quality providing some activity around the ground floor to support the small pocket park of Warrior Square. The STOCKVALE GROUP recognise that this site could deliver a significant number of residential units.

Representation ID: 2132

Received: 15/02/2016

Respondent: Stockvale Group

Representation Summary:

Wholly support the aspirations for the Clifftown area and recognise the value of the Clifftown conservation area. There are two development sites namely Clarence Street and Alexandra Street car parks which have been identified for redevelopment. The STOCKVALE GROUP generally support the redevelopment of these areas providing they respond to the fine grain character of the Conservation area and the scale of Alexandra Street. The STOCKVALE GROUP recognise there is an opportunity to further enhance the boutique offer of this part of Southend by means of high quality architecture and high quality retail together with A3 uses and residential uses at upper levels.

Representation Summary:

In relation to car parking, the STOCKVALE GROUP would seek that the existing public car parking spaces are either allocated as part of the museum provision or are included elsewhere within the south west corner of the SCAAP area. There is an opportunity with the Empire Theatre as a large basement already exists. A public car park could form part of a wholesale mixed use redevelopment of the Empire theatre.

Question 27: Do you agree with the proposed approach to managing development within the Central Seafront Policy Area and sites OS7, OS8, OS9 and CS1.1? Please explain your answer.

Representation ID: 2135

Received: 15/02/2016

Respondent: Stockvale Group

Representation Summary:

Due to the topography of the Seaway Car Park there is an opportunity to cut into the site and create a formal entrance that can create a visual gateway as part of the access route. There is an opportunity to accommodate somewhere in the region of 1500 parking spaces arranged over 2-3-4 floors. Traffic movements would then come in directly at the northern edge of the site and filter through into the layered car park.
To the south side Lucy Road could then be completely pedestrianised and a punch through to the seafront creating a large piazza activated by new A1, A3 uses to compliment both the Central Seafront and the links into the High Street. The pedestrian link would then improve the environs around St John's church. To drive some additional value it is perfectly legitimate to consider a number of floors of residential uses above the car park and retail/A3 commercial offer.

Representation ID: 2139

Received: 15/02/2016

Respondent: Stockvale Group

Representation Summary:

Major concerns relating to all supported aspirations being achieved falls into a number of categories - transport, access and parking is a key theme and at present the existing parking provision is woefully inadequate. The access route into the Town is often unable to cater for the number of visitors on sunny days and this is likely to be detrimental to economic sustainability and the projected growth of 6,000 jobs within the SCAAP Area
