Representation ID: 9572

Received: 15/03/2019

Respondent: IM Land

Agent: Stansgate Planning LLP

Representation Summary:

Site 420 north of Main Road, Meriden should be allocated for up to 100 houses. Site Selection topic paper demonstrates Meriden has good level of services and is highly accessible. Suitable for limited expansion and could take more than 100 dwellings.
Site Assessment scores well other than defensible boundaries, which is capable of remedy using existing hedgerows/watercourse. Accessibility Mapping finds very high level of accessibility. Maximum SHELAA score. Moderate impact on green belt. Visually well-contained. Can provide significant green infrastructure.
Site performs well against Step 2 factors, other than very low landscape capacity, which applies to Site 10 and elsewhere. Site more positive in SA than other Meriden sites.
Assessment incorrectly states 170 rather than 100 dwellings.
