Concerns over lack of evidence on the deliverability and viability of this allocation.
Sports facilities crucial to the original rationale of allocating two large sites.
Mentions that the site is subject to a restrictive covenant used only for the purposes of recreational games but doubts that the football club could cover the costs associated with more facilities, and that additional facilities would generate more traffic in an area not accessible by public transport.
Questions the site's accessibility
The site north of Hampton road has topographical constraints, the LWS and Grimshall Hall.
States that the Savills site proposals should be deleted as its now superseded by the SMBC one.
Needs clarification on the inclusion of a cricket pitch.
Refers to Para 242 - necessity for a clear phasing and delivery programme, which doesn't appear in the plan.
No Credible evidence to show deliverability of this allocation.
Please find attached my responses to the Local Plan consultation. All three documents address the issue of the soundness of the Plan.
