Objection to Site 4.

Disproportionate allocation in Blythe Ward; 45% of new allocations.
Should be more medium and smaller Green Belt releases, spread across the Borough.
High scoring Green Belt parcels should not be released for development.
Need exceptional circumstances to change Green Belt boundaries, housing not sufficient.
Significant harm to village character and rural setting.
Greater than 800m walking distance from village centre.
Increased traffic and parking unacceptable.
Negative ecological impact.
90% of survey respondents objected to both sites being removed from Green Belt.
Site 4 conflicts with the original masterplan and vision for Dickens Heath village.
