Representation ID: 30131

Received: 24/03/2021

Respondent: Clive Brook Planning

Representation Summary:

Rejected Site IL/016.

Comprehensive proposals including a masterplan and other information has been prepared for the site as well as sites IL/011A, IL/011B & IL/032, as part of earlier consultations and discussions.

Concerned that there are a number of substantial mis-appraisals in the supported evidence, and that site has been treated as part of wider comprehensive approach. No logical reason for disaggregated approach.

Considered that the site (as part of comprehensive masterplan area) is connected with urban area.

Development could be achieved withouth significant impact on the functions of the Green Belt.

Proposals will create sustainable mixed use development, meeting all three sustainability objectives in the NPPF. No sites within the urban area are capable of delivering these benefits. The scale of the landholding enables the delivery of beneficial environmental enhancements.

Major positive opportunity to deliver market and affordable housing, meeting social objectives. Site can deliver integrated environmental benefits and recreation provision for the benefit of the community.

Request that the Council review their decision to exclude this site.
