Representation Summary:

Rejected site TH/013
Site specific submission for land at Spring Holes Lane, Thornton. (TH/013) Considers that a residential allocation of this land for a development of circa 58 dwellings. Will contribute to towards an enhanced requirement in Thornton (800 to 825 dwellings).

Some of the proposed greenfield and brownfield sites are subject to a variety of constraints and/or environmental requirements to accommodate reducing their combined capacity by around 100 dwellings.

Disagree with the overall conclusion reached in this site specific Green Belt assessment that the site has a major potential impact on the Green Belt.

Relationship of the site with Thornton Recreation Ground to the south west and the sports fields to the west presents opportunities for environmental improvements and appropriate landscaping

Disagree with the SA assessment against criterion 3 -Land and Buildings as the loss of a relative small area of greenfield land does not justify a major adverse impact rating.
