Representation Summary:

Part 2 of this policy references Green Belt designation as identified on the Policies Map. However, this policy must be looked at ‘in the round’ with the other matters which the plan must address, including the need to release further Green Belt to address unmet residential need over the plan period as set out elsewhere in these representations. The Policies Map would therefore need to reflect this.
As set out in the Housing and Economic Growth Paper at Appendix 2, it is clear that there is a significant and unresolved need across the housing market area stretching in to the latter years of the plan period, and far reaching consequences in relation to the growth agenda as set out by the White Paper. It is clearly necessary for the plan to safeguard land, which could be brought forward as a series of reserve options to provide flexibility and a balanced approach for delivering sustainable development both within and beyond the plan period.
