We support the proposed allocation of site ST1/H for residential development. As demonstrated by the Site Assessments we consider that that positive conclusion attributed to the preferred allocation (ST1/H) area extends to the wider site area available (reference ST/001) and the allocation should be amended to include the wider/ larger site referred to as ST/001 to deliver new housing and positive effects for residents in a sustainable extension to the Steeton with Eastburn Growth Centre.

The wider reference ST/001 scores equally in terms of the Green Belt Assessment and against the Sustainability Objectives. We consider the wider allocation provides the potential for the delivery of additional new housing in this sustainable location.
