4.60 Different street types, along with buildings, spaces, non-residential uses, landscape, water, and other features can help people create a ‘mental map’ of a place. Streets with clearly different characters are effective in helping people grasp whether they are on a principal or secondary street. For larger sites, it will be necessary to use streets and spaces with different characters to help people to find their way around.

Dementia-friendly environments are spaces that are designed to support the needs and preferences of people living with dementia. They aim to promote independence, wellbeing, safety, comfort, and meaningful activities for people with dementia and their carers. Easy access and wayfinding can help people with dementia to navigate an environment without getting lost or confused.

Safety, security, and comfort helps people with dementia feel relaxed and calm in an environment. There are many resources and guidelines available that can help to design and evaluate dementia-friendly environments. (2)4.44 Rother recognises the significance of promoting circular and sustainable practices in the construction and demolition industry.
Transport
(1)4.74 Car barns or car ports can effectively allow a low car, or even a car-free environment with all the benefits that can bring, particularly for residential areas. They are much more likely to be used than garages and can be a good way to integrate groups of cars into a landscape. 4.19 The more rural parts of Rother, many people face difficulties in reaching essential services and opportunities.
4.37 New development should create places that are memorable, with a locally inspired or otherwise distinctive character. (11)4.1 The ‘Live Well Locally’ concept as an overall priority of the Local Plan underscores Rother’s dedication to cultivating healthy, sustainable, and inclusive communities that support residents across the age spectrum. Live Well Locally aims to create an environment where individuals of all ages can live, work, and play with dignity and independence. Rother seeks to foster a dynamic and vibrant community that values diversity and intergenerational connections.

- Following the launch of the service, Google Drive’s privacy policy was criticized by some members of the media.
- Greenfield and edge of settlement locations often require more creativity and inspiration to avoid creating places that lack a sense of local or otherwise distinctive character.
(1)4.12 Efficient use of land is a key aspect of well-designed new developments and a requirement of the NPPF17. A compact form of development is more likely to accommodate enough people to support shops, local facilities, and viable public transport, maximise social interaction in a local area, and make it feel a safe, lively, and attractive place. This can help to promote active travel to local facilities and services, reducing dependence on the private car. The Council will also support proposals that reinvest the surplus generated by community assets and green infrastructure into the community, such as through community funds, grants, or dividends. 4.59 As the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) Dementia and Town Planning research paper mentions, well planned, enabling local environments can have a substantial impact on the quality of life for someone living with dementia, helping them to live well in their community for longer. An overriding principle of this advice is that if you get an area right for people with dementia, you can also get it right for older people, for young disabled people, for families with small children, and ultimately for everyone.
This approach can help reduce traffic congestion, lower emissions, and improve quality of life. In September 2016, Google announced Team Drives, later renamed Shared Drives,112 as a new way for Google Workspace teams to collaborate on documents and store files. In Shared Drives, file/folder sharing and ownership are assigned to a team rather than to an individual user.113 Since 2020, Shared Drives had an ability to assign different access levels to files and folders to different users and teams, and an ability to share a folder publicly.

As the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) Net Zero Transport research paper mentions, in the longer term, further collaboration between the transport and land-use planning sectors will help to achieve carbon reduction/net zero targets and benefit the health and wellbeing of residents. (2)4.4 To minimise carbon emissions, new development will be guided to locations that help to reduce the overall need to travel, offer the best opportunity for active travel, and for the use of public transport. This will help to maximise opportunities for sustainable travel and reduce the reliance on and for minimal use of private motor vehicles. 4.67 The most traditional car parking method is to provide unallocated spaces parallel with the street. It often allows residents to see their car from the front of their house and contributes to an active street and traffic calming, while keeping most vehicular activity on the public side of buildings. Where development proposals are for more than 50 dwellings or 500 sqm of non-residential floorspace, streets must provide places to sit, space to chat or play within new streets, as well as allow for temporary closures to maximise a streets multipurpose potential for other uses e.g., markets, festivals, parades etc.
Specifically, what are your views on the provision of Demand Responsive Transport, car clubs and car shares?
4.34 “Filtered permeability” is a concept that relates to the ease with which different modes of transportation (e.g., walking, cycling, wheeling, public transport, and driving) can move through and access different parts of an area. It refers to the idea of selectively allowing or promoting certain types of transportation while discouraging or hindering others in a way that supports sustainable and efficient mobility. 4.26 Public transport must be accessible within a 400m walking distance of all properties either through proximity to existing routes or through the provision of new or extended routes. On developments of 50 homes or more or 500sqm or more of non-residential floorspace, at least one public transport service must be fully operational on the first day of occupation or in accordance with the phasing of the development. (1)4.25 Opportunities for enhanced sustainable transport measures are being considered through the Transport Assessment and Infrastructure Delivery Statement for the Local Plan. This will help to identify wider solutions and appropriate mitigation for development and look comprehensively at a package of measures that could be delivered to support the Council’s emerging growth strategy and the ambitions of the Climate Strategy 2023.
In July 2018, Google announced a new edition, called Drive Enterprise, for businesses that don’t want to buy the full Google Workspace.110 Drive Enterprise includes Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides which permits collaborative editing of documents, spreadsheets, presentations, drawings, forms, and other file types. Drive Enterprise also allows users to access and collaborate on Microsoft Office files and 60+ other file types.81 The pricing of Drive Enterprise is based on usage, with $8 per active user per month, plus $0.04 per GB per month. Google Drive offers users 15 GB of free storage, sharing it with Gmail and Google Photos.
They allow ground water recharge which reduces water pollution, enhance biodiversity, and provide landscape amenity enhancement. (B) All major housing developments must have 50% of dwellings have a form factor of 1.7 or less to ensure that housing is designed to be energy-efficient and environmentally sustainable. (1)4.31 All new development must ensure access for all and help make walking and cycling feel like the natural choice for everyone undertaking short journeys (such as the school run or older generations accessing local facilities and services) or as part of longer journeys.

This will support a critical mass for multiple local services/facilities and the viability of public transport including Demand Responsive Transport (DRT), shuttle bus services and car clubs. 4.45 Bioregional design seeks to align development with the ecological and natural systems of the region, fostering a harmonious relationship between the built environment and the surrounding ecosystem. 4.57 Streets should be designed to meet the needs of the whole community, be attractive, create a sense of place, pride and enable healthy lifestyles.
