Draft Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 4680

Received: 16/02/2017

Respondent: Terry Corns

Representation Summary:

Interim Sustainability Appraisal is difficult to follow but the NF would make the following comments:
- not clear why the finding from the first ISA in relation to negative impacts of car borne travel become plusses in the preferred option in ISA2.
- site allocations do not appear to perform well against Objectives 9,10,11, 12, and 13.
- unclear why some parcels have been assessed and other not. several independent parcels have been assessed together which distorts the results.
- Scenario B, ISA2 assesses impacts on communities as all broadly positive. It is not clear how this can be concluded.

Attached is the reasoned response to the Plan from KDBH Forum which sums up my objection in the "summary" section.
