Why not start from a position where any current Green Belt site over say 2ha. being proposed for development or concept masterplanning should allocate 50% to be retained as open landscape and other acceptable Green Belt functions.
For instance on Site 9 the Masterplan shows an LWS which is only presently restricted to land with serious development constraints but this could be easily added to by the addition of further permanently accessible 'common' type use to retain amenity and encourage public use.
