I support the strategies for Cottingley BUT question why the figure of 150 has been used seeing as that appears to be more than the need identified at 5.20.10 Table 1 which would appear to suggest that the 'Remaining Allocation Requirement' is 147 at the most.
To encourage a greater number of houses than the allocation identified means that more land is allowed to be taken from the precious Green Belt than is actually Required. This is inconsistent with the Council's stated objectives and runs contrary and contradictory to the direction of the majority of the other strategies for Cottingley village.
