Draft Local Plan
Representation ID: 14718
Received: 21/04/2016
Respondent: Mr Brian Worth
Representation Summary:
I understand that Basildon Council are also considering developing up to the Brentwood Council border at Dunton.
Should surrounding areas bordering the West Horndon Parish that are controlled by other authorities be developed in this way, there could be urban sprawl all the way from London to Basildon or even beyond, something which the Metropolitan Green Belt was designed to protect against.
For example, in the past, attempts have been made to develop on land south of West Horndon, such as the "Tillingham Hall - New Country Town project", land which is not controlled by Brentwood Council. Such a plan could easily be resurrected by Thurrock Council.
