My preference would be for brown field sites to be utilised first and then 127 corridor
If the A12 option is to be used North of the borough first
If the A12 corridor is required certain sites are more suitable ie
The Sawyers Hall site - 024b due to location of town centre High Street and that as a mixed build site affordable housing will remain affordable and good amenities
My next preference would be Brentwood centre 089 due to the fact that this area could be built well and have access to the A12.
I think that if the option is to go for the A12 corridor .
The best option is 024b Sawyers hall site. As it is near to Brentwood town centre and the high street . The site is also walk able distance to the station
good local amenities such as schools , doctors etc.. Help with householders walking to Brentwood and shopping less traffic. The site would be very good for a mixed build of normal housing and affordable housing
The next option would be 089 site Brentwood centre. This area could expand over a period of time and again is close by to Brentwood town centre. The site would be very good for a mixed build of normal housing and affordable housing
My least preference of all options is the 034 option officers meadow This site is not near to the Brentwood town centre and is the beginning of the green belt land going east. This is why Brentwood is such a mice environment to live in.
This area would not really be suitable for a mixed build as affordable housing will not remain affordable due the the Shenfield commuter land and cross rail effect. Its important to me that if any green belt land is to be used it has a high proportion of affordable housing on it . and that the affordable housing remains affordable to key workers for future generations.
The other two site i mention above have a much better chance of that.
