No. The A12, A1023, A128 and A129 are already highly congested. Significant improvement to infrastructure would be needed.

The broad areas for growth identified in the plan are generally supported. The focus of development around key transport corridors, particularly the A12 are considered to be logical in terms of access to service and employment provision.

The arrival of CrossRail presents future opportunities for growth within the A12 corridor, with associated responsive demand for employment and housing provision anticipated to significantly increase in the Shenfield and Hutton area. In order for the plan to be considered to be sound, it is important that the Council allocates land for housing within the Shenfield and Hutton area, to adequately meet their housing OAN. The housing need is likely to be high in area given the rail links to London and pressures on the housing market area as a result of the shortage of housing in London. This will be exacerbated by the arrival of CrossRail.

The land adjacent to Rayleigh Road is well-suited for new homes being strongly related to the settlement of Hutton with excellent access to services and the infrastructural network. Allocation of this land is required in order to positively plan for growth as required by the NPPF and would be an effective approach in planning terms.

Yes, the broad areas for considering growth are supported. In particular, recognising the importance of Cross Rail and the A12 corridor as important factors to consider when planning for growth is supported. It is also supported that the document recognises that housing demands of the Borough cannot be met from brownfield land alone. In this regard, in order for the plan to comply with the NPPF it is important that the Council seek to plan for infrastructure requirements within the Borough, associated with the proposed housing and employment growth required over the plan period. Particularly with the arrival of Cross Rail.

Yes. Although I agree with the 3 broad areas development should be focused on the A12 /A127 corridor, Brentwood Town Centre, Shenfield and West Horndon developments. This would protect our precious Green Belt North of the borough (Figure 6a) which has insufficient infrastructure to cope with anymore development, housing, retail or industrial. Local roads are used by farm vehicles which would cause disruption to the traffic flow and the A414 is already heavily congested.

The broad areas are generally supported, the focus of these areas around transport
corridors reflects the need to focus growth and strategic scale development around these linkages. It should however be emphasised that there are smaller scale opportunities in other areas of the Borough for development that could provide modest extensions to well-serviced settlements and support the Borough's need for housing in rural areas.

Adequate sites in villages outside the key growth areas should be considered as suitable sites for residential development in order to comply with the NPPF desire to promote sustainable development in rural areas by locating housing, as stated in Paragraph 55. The option of small scale village growth in the north of the Borough, identified as Growth Option A within the Strategic Growth Options Consultation documents, is supported. Although the transport network may restrict large scale growth in these villages, the small scale release of green belt at village development boundaries would provide the growth required to maintain prosperous rural economies and enhance the vitality of rural communities, in line with the NPPF.

Have only concerns for one area which is the possible development of The Hopefield Animal Sanctuary alongside the A12.
I'm sending you a copy of the policy questionnaire; I'm not a local resident (not since 1974) but I am concerned about a part of your policy regarding development. I am a supporter of Hopefield Animal Sanctuary and am very concerned that Tesco will sell the land for development. I understand they have asked whether the council can purchase the land but unless the area is classified as leisure there is no way anyone can afford it. Please could you consider making this decision in favour of Hopefield and class the area for leisure. They do such a fantastic job caring for abandoned and rescued animals but I know you are aware of this! It would be heartbreaking to have to have these wonderful animals destroyed as there is nowhere for them to go. On behalf of my adopted boys George and Noah the donkeys, Sweet little Blossom, my grand-daughter's adopted pony and Hope my daughter's beautiful girl, Hope, the mare, please keep Hopefield for leisure.
Q1: I do not live in Brentwood so have only concerns for one area which is the possible development of The Hopefield Animal Sanctuary alongside the A12.
Q3: I feel the site alongside the A12 which is Hopefield Animal Sanctuary
should be kept for Leisure purposes only. It's a wonderful place - a huge
asset to Brentwood. Unless they are given a new site, or the council can
buy it from Tesco (at Leisure prices, not housing) all the animals will
probably have to be put down. We sponsor 2 donkeys and 2 horses there
and it's a lovely place to go to relax and enjoy the animals - definitely a
place of leisure! Please do not allow the area to be considered for
development but class it for leisure use only. Nearly 400 animals lives are
in your hands. Thank you.
Q5: No, definitely not if it is the Animal Sanctuary site.
Q9: Keep the one of the ones you have for leisure - Hopefield Animal Sanctuary.

Adequate sites in villages outside of the key growth areas should be considered as suitable for residential development in order to comply with NPPF paragraph 55 (sustainable development in rural areas with housing that enhances or maintains vitality of rural communities.

Each area exhibits different characteristics that impact upon ability to accommodate future housing growth. Balanced spatial strategy needed, helping meet development needs from all settlements across the Borough. Housing growth at each settlement should meet local needs, and be commensurate to the sustainability credentials of the settlement, in accordance with NPPF paragraph 14 (presumption in favour of sustainable development). Support identification of the majority of new housing growth in the A12 Corridor as this is the most sustainable location in the Borough. Other settlements should respond to local needs only in accordance with NPPF paragraph 55 (housing in rural areas).

Yes, they are most suitable for consideration. However Green Belt Land should remain protected, its main purpose is to protect land around urban centres from urban sprawl, maintain forestry and agricultural areas and wildlife habitats. There are numerous run down commercial sites on non-green belt land that would benefit from regeneration.
Rural areas lack infrastructure required for development, they are for farming communities and not fit for large development. It will affect local residents and communities, such as residents, horse-riders, dog-walkers, who rely on access to woodland and whose safety is already jeopardised by traffic.

Areas considered generally appropriate. Focus around transport corridors reflects need to focus growth around these links. Strategic scale development is best located close to established road links and railway stations, and A127 corridor in particular.
Need to continue considering linkages between identified corridors. Brentwood Enterprise Park includes potential to deliver Green Transport Linkages between new employment provision, key settlements, and railway stations. Likely to include links into Brentwood to ensure site is fully sustainable whilst recognising that enterprise parks generating traffic movements from large goods vehicles will be best located at the strategic road network.

The SHMA claims compliance with work by Edge Analytics for the Essex Planning Officers Association. It does however not take account of the very latest figures as set out in Phase 6, published in September 2014. In addition the Government is shortly to publish 2012 - based Household Projections that will provide a more reliable set of figures, from the 2011 census, upon which to base an assessment of housing need.
