Local Plan 2015-2030 Preferred Options for Consultation

Representation ID: 1287

Respondent: JB Planning Associates Ltd.

Representation Summary:

We have also reviewed the Interim Sustainability Appraisal (SA) and failed to find any assessment of alternative site allocation which should form part of the appraisal. We can therefore only assume no alternative sites were considered by the Council which is contrary to national policy. Transparency should be at the heart of the process and failure to fully explain why some sites were chosen and others not, and to test alternatives, raises serious concerns over how the Plan was prepared.
