Preferred Site Allocations 2018

Representation ID: 19743

Received: 12/03/2018

Respondent: Countryside Properties

Agent: Andrew Martin Planning Ltd

Representation Summary:

The SA concludes that all options have pros and cons: Option 1 (Land to the east and west of West Horndon)performs best from a landscape perspective. Option 3 (DHGV only) is said to have drawbacks in respect of biodiversity, landscape and housing. Despite the above conclusions, Option 3 DHGV only, is selected as the 'preferred approach'. The conclusion that this performs well in sustainability objectives is incorrect and ignores key issues such as landscape, in a borough juggling with the need to minimise impact on the Green Belt.
