Draft Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 2074

Received: 17/02/2017

Respondent: Bromsgrove District Council

Representation Summary:

Objection to Site 4.

Site 4 abuts Bromsgrove District boundary. As Majors Green in Bromsgrove already abuts the boundary to the west, this allocation would result in the coalescence of settlements contrary to purpose 2 of the function of Green Belts
as set out in Paragraph 80 of the NPPF.
Landscape Character Assessment concluded that this area has a very low landscape capacity to accommodate new development with visual sensitivity in the area being high.
Unclear how allocation would retain 'meaningful' Green Belt gaps as expressed in Topic Paper.
