Local Plan 2015-2030 Preferred Options for Consultation
Representation ID: 1206
Received: 01/10/2013
Respondent: Strutt & Parker LLP
Representation Summary:
We consider that development on the edge of settlements (i.e. the rural areas) provides a sustainable form of development in accordance with national policy. The NPPF acknowledges that development in the rural areas will differ in its sustainability when judged against development in the urban areas, but this need not mean that planning permission cannot be granted.
We consider that the policy should be amended to reflect the need and benefits of providing development in rural areas, and in particular adjacent to rural settlements.
