There is too much emphasis on the flawed HS2 proposals. There needs to be more focus on intensifying developments by increasing densities and a wider mix of affordability and tenure to accommodate people of all ages and abilities.
There should be more acknowledgment of the agricultural aspects of land use within the borough, including the need to be able to grow more food locally. It is welcome that soil quality is part of the evidence base.
