Preferred Site Allocations 2018

Representation ID: 19744

Received: 12/03/2018

Respondent: Countryside Properties

Agent: Andrew Martin Planning Ltd

Representation Summary:

It is an isolated site with no transport connections and cannot compare to the sustainability score given to West Horndon, served by a train station and other existing public transport links. The NPPF consultation document just released by the government is clear in advising that where it is necessary for plans to release Green Belt land for development, this should start with brownfield sites and those well served by public transport. The preference for Dunton Hills as a location for large-scale growth, instead of West Horndon, is contrary to this latest advice.
