Omission Site 195/528 should be allocated for residential development of 9 hectares consisting of a range of dwelling types and sizes including Extra Care residential development and affordable housing, together with public open space and private land. Site is accessible, close to significant employment areas, available, suitable and achievable.
Dispute conclusions of Site Assessment. Green Belt is moderately performing and clear physical boundaries can be provided, with landscape and green infrastructure to provide further containment. Site would have low impact on criteria in SHELAA and Sustainability Appraisal.
As a minimum, site should be safeguarded for future needs, but given urgent unmet needs should be allocated now
