Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 7076

Received: 06/03/2019

Respondent: Mr Graham Thomas

Representation Summary:

There is NO JUSTIFICATION for the extension of the Green Belt boundary to the East and South of Balsall Common beyond the existing clear, identifiable and defendable line created by existing development on Windmill Lane and Waste Lane. It is ideal to fulfil the NPPF guideline to 'prevent urban sprawl' (Paragraph 359).

There is no need at all to reduce the Green Belt further in the Plan to 2028.
