Brentwood Local Plan 2016 - 2033 (Pre-Submission, Regulation 19)

Representation ID: 22359

Received: 18/03/2019

Respondent: Rochford District Council

Representation Summary:

The Council supports Brentwood's commitment to meeting the identified accommodation needs for Gypsies and Travellers (meeting the PPTS definition) in full. Brentwood Borough Council should, however, satisfy itself and the Inspector that the proposed policy (and other relevant policies) would be deliverable at the site-level. Brentwood Borough Council should consider mechanisms for reviewing its policy approach if a shortfall in provision becomes evident through its monitoring, or to reflect any change in circumstances that arise through the development of a strategic approach as part of the emerging South Essex Joint Strategic Plan.
