Local Plan 2015-2030 Preferred Options for Consultation
Representation ID: 982
Received: 16/09/2013
Respondent: Campaign for the Protection of Rural England (CPRE) Brentwood Branch
Representation Summary:
Residential densities in areas of Special Character:
We believe that if buildings is unavoidable in such areas it should be done at low building densities. Brentwood has a very high proportion of Green Belt land and areas of 'Special Landscape Area' status
On page 79, we believe the 2nd paragraph beginning "Residential densities will be expected..." is insufficient in requirement and should explicitly state that where the surrounding area has special characteristics, e.g. high scenic value, or in or near a Special Landscape Area, then residential densities will not exceed a specific density per hectare
