This whole site is not suitable for housing development and resides within the green belt. Remove this site KN2 from the Local Plan. Rebuild the Arden Academy School and include a primary school facility within the existing grounds.

In the event that the above is not agreed then refer to and adopt the set of representations submitted by the KDBH Neighbourhood Forum CIO.

The Council has failed to provide any viability assessment for this green belt site. The Council has not paid any or any sufficient regard to the made KDBH Neighbourhood Plan which carries statutory weight.

The proposed housing density is inappropriate and too high for the character of the existing Knowle village. The topography of the site is not appropriate for the proposed scale of housing. In addition, no provision has been made for health facilities and no community benefits are put forward as required by the residents as a condition of providing housing on the site.
