Representation Summary:

This figure, Figure 7 "Site Assessment Process", does not demonstrate the complexities that the council faces when deciding on the release of Green Belt land. Stage 4 shows Green Belt as one of several criteria used to assess sites, yet Green Belt has a different planning status and its application in plan-making and decision-making differs from that of other criteria. This diagram does not seem to be consistent with others showing the sequential approach e.g. Figure 4 "Developing the Spatial Strategy". The Council should reconsider Figure 7 to provide suitable clarity.
