Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 7402

Received: 11/03/2019

Respondent: Mr Cliff Dobson

Representation Summary:

Proposed Mitigation:
If adopted, the southern boundary of site 16 should be placed at Hampton Lane, so existing property owners are not constrained from development by green belt designation at the same time as adjacent land is redesignated for housing.
Development should be restricted at the periphery, to provide significant undeveloped buffer strips to retain open aspect and minimise impact on existing dwellings.
Field Lane is not a suitable access road for proposed development, and widening would result in permanent loss of rural byway and ancient hedgerow. Access should be from Damson Parkway only.
