Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 7343

Received: 10/03/2019

Respondent: Councillor M Wilson

Representation Summary:

It was always suggested that this site would be kept for Educational Purposes. As part of the local plan, Educational facilities and infrastructure are vital to ensure that any new development works cohesively. The same should be said for the community facility at Auckland Hall which houses various groups (mentioned in earlier objection) and the KIngfisher Foodbank et al. These would need to be rehoused.

Regarding the Sports Field, Sport England would require this to be replaced under mitigation nearby. However, Smith's Wood and the surrounding areas have very little green space for relocation of such a facility.
