We support this Policy. We particularly welcome:
 Criterion B.3 - Where there are open spaces in the vicinity of development sites, then, instead of automatically requiring the provision of open space on the development itself, there may well be wider public benefits through the enhancement/restoration of existing open spaces. This is particularly the case where there is clear evidence that an existing open space is likely to be regularly used by the occupants of a new development.
 Criterion E - Where the Council will work with local communities to identify areas of Local Green Space and the protection that this Criterion provides for these spaces. The protection and enhancement of these areas will contribute to the delivery of that aspect of the Vision which relates to the creation of an attractive District and the protection and enhancement of its environmental assets.
