Our Client supports the Council’s conclusions that exceptional circumstances exist to release land from the Green Belt in order to meet their housing requirements, as outlined in the supporting text for the proposals.

In addition, they fully support the Council’s proposals to allocate site NW10/H for residential development of circa 160 dwellings, and specifically the 7.17 acres of land (see Appendix 1, below) that forms our Client’s interest in the northern section of the site. This has the potential to accommodate 75-80 new homes.

The site would lead to minimal encroachment into the countryside and minimise sprawl. Also, it would not lead to the coalescence of settlements. In summary, it would represent a sound and logical rounding-off of the settlement and its release from the Green Belt would be acceptable as it no longer serves the five Green Belt purposes.
