Five new Sports Hubs are required across the Borough to deal with replacement / new provision. The Plan is unclear on the precise location and deliverability of this mitigation, and it is unclear whether the land is available to deliver these hubs, or the cost and timing of when they will be delivered. It is implied that in some instances very special circumstances will be required at the application stage. We object to this approach. The draft SLP should clearly state what mitigation is required and how it can be delivered, with support from the evidence base – for instance transport, Green Belt, landscape, viability. It cannot be considered an afterthought.
