Confirm support for the allocation of a parcel of land at Fairview, Magpie Lane, Brentwood. (see supporting Site Location Plan). The site would fall within criteria 2 of the approach to identifying land [Brownfield Green Belt Urban Extension]]. The site is a brownfield site and is harmful to character and visual amenity in its locality. It is predominantly used as a waste transfer station and generates excessive heavy goods vehicle traffic on the local rural road network. The allocation of the site for residential use possibly with a small element of appropriate employment space would improve local amenity and provide resources to relocate the business.
A preliminary assessment indicates that up to 25 dwellings of range of sizes and tenures could be accommodated on the site, helping meet local housing need and improving the character and appearance of the area.
