Draft Local Plan
Representation ID: 14098
Received: 11/04/2016
Respondent: Zada Capital
Policy 7.1 states it will provide 2500 homes, but does not say that the proposals are for a far larger scheme that include Basildon Council for a joint scheme of 4,000 to 6,000 new homes. The wording of this Policy is misleading and should show exactly what is being proposed at Dunton.
The area of Dunton does not lie in a sustainable location, it is capable of limited development but not to the level proposed.
The site at Dunton does not meet any of the requirements within the drat Plan regarding sustainability, managing growth and when considering the Vision Statement.
The alternative approach should be providing new homes throughout the Borough, including sites on the edge of villages, this will not just meet local needs but also will meet the needs of local residents.
