Respondent: Mr Adam Smith

Agent: Collins & Coward Ltd

Representation Summary:

With regard to the spatial strategy the significant contribution of 2,500 new homes cannot realistically be provided within settlement category 1, namely the main town of Brentwood, settlement category 2 namely the village service centres such as Ingatestone (noting that Dunton would be so categorised in due course) nor settlement 3 namely the larger villages or settlement category 4 namely the smaller villages.
