Q1: Yes - The Borough logically splits itself into three identified areas, which are also of different character. It is sensible to look at the main infrastructure corridors as individual areas. In particular to identify the central A12 Corridor as this includes the main settlements of Brentwood and Shenfield and which is favourable in sustainability terms.

Q2: Yes and No - There is the implied suggestion in Paragraph 2.17 that development opportunities will only be considered alongside opportunities surrounding the urban area within the Green Belt. As the main centres are the most sensible and sustainable to focus development the LPA should look at all sites including greenfield within the urban area, as well as the urban edges.

Q3: Yes - There are a number of urban edge sites in sustainable locations which will be logical rounding off or infill within the Green Belt, which will make good housing sites contributing to the relevant small local communities as well as indirectly established community facilities. In this respect this submission and link to the Thorndon Park Golf Club, which has a potential small housing site not previously submitted in the earlier SHLAA consultation.

Q4: The focus of this submission is centred on the A12 Corridor and key housing sites. This firm makes representations on other employment issues in separate
representations.

Q5: Yes - See comments under Q3 above. Having looked within the urban areas at all potential sites it is sensible and in accordance with the NPPF to consider releasing sites on the edge of urban areas within this corridor. It is evidenced from the housing needs data that the LPA will need to consider the long term need of the Borough and release sustainable edge of urban area sites, as well as any longer term strategic releases.

Q6: These comments have been directed to the main urban area.

Q7: Yes - Employment comments have been made in separate representations but we would consider that the most sustainable approach is to allocate new sites close to the strategic highway network and provide a wide choice of sites.

Q8: Yes - No further comment.

Q9: Yes - There are opportunities to take a more pragmatic approach to open space to ensure deliverability of some space for public use where none currently exists.

Q12: Yes - These representations have been submitted with respect to land ownership of Thorndon Park Golf Club (TPGC). TPGC has served the community for many years and is acknowledged as one of the finest golf clubs in the South East of England. Created by the legendary Harry Colt in 1920. TPGC is the only golf club in Essex in the top 100 in England, which is a major accolade for the Club and Borough and is a good marketing point for the Club. With a thriving membership of 698 (including 50 players who are under 18 years of age). TPGC attracts visitors from overseas and throughout the UK with 3,835 visitors enjoying this remarkable parkland course in 2014.

The Members see the course as a community asset of which they are the custodians of. They are very conscious not to create a development that would detract and are adamant that any monies raised would be ploughed back into the course for the benefit of future generations. Additionally, in the short term, such funds would ensure that TPGC remains Essex's premier course.

The Club has extensive land ownership which we show identified on the O.S. base
provided, which includes important woodland areas that contributes to the overall
environmental character of this part of Brentwood.

It is highlighted that any policies in the Plan to be brought forward should seek to
encourage associated developments of such clubs alongside other similar recreation facilities i.e. Hartswood Golf Club Pay as you Play, offering a different leisure opportunity.

As self-promotion of the Borough in terms of tourism, ecology and the ability please refer to the historic importance of Thorndon Park Golf Club and it's now recognised position as one of the top golf clubs in the country is an important consideration that should be reflected in the emerging plan.

Alongside this representation we have identified a small housing site that could
contribute up to 4 dwellings. It is a logical rounding off of the Green Belt and an
extension of a small existing cul-de-sac where the infrastructure is all in place. It is highlighted that the additional benefit to community services as all the sale proceeds will be utilised in maintaining the golf course's high quality thus securing greater improvements to bring it to a higher recognised golfing standard as well as securing the maintenance of the Club's woodlands and quality golf course.

In this respect this submission and link to the Thorndon Park Golf Club, which has a potential small housing site not previously submitted in the earlier SHLAA consultation.

Q4: The focus of this submission is centred on the A12 Corridor and key housing sites. This firm makes representations on other employment issues in separate
representations.

Q5: Yes - See comments under Q3 above. Having looked within the urban areas at all potential sites it is sensible and in accordance with the NPPF to consider releasing sites on the edge of urban areas within this corridor. It is evidenced from the housing needs data that the LPA will need to consider the long term need of the Borough and release sustainable edge of urban area sites, as well as any longer term strategic releases.

Q6: These comments have been directed to the main urban area.

Q7: Yes - Employment comments have been made in separate representations but we would consider that the most sustainable approach is to allocate new sites close to the strategic highway network and provide a wide choice of sites.

Q8: Yes - No further comment.

Q9: Yes - There are opportunities to take a more pragmatic approach to open space to ensure deliverability of some space for public use where none currently exists.

Q12: Yes - These representations have been submitted with respect to land ownership of Thorndon Park Golf Club (TPGC). TPGC has served the community for many years and is acknowledged as one of the finest golf clubs in the South East of England. Created by the legendary Harry Colt in 1920. TPGC is the only golf club in Essex in the top 100 in England, which is a major accolade for the Club and Borough and is a good marketing point for the Club. With a thriving membership of 698 (including 50 players who are under 18 years of age). TPGC attracts visitors from overseas and throughout the UK with 3,835 visitors enjoying this remarkable parkland course in 2014.

The Members see the course as a community asset of which they are the custodians of. They are very conscious not to create a development that would detract and are adamant that any monies raised would be ploughed back into the course for the benefit of future generations. Additionally, in the short term, such funds would ensure that TPGC remains Essex's premier course.

The Club has extensive land ownership which we show identified on the O.S. base
provided, which includes important woodland areas that contributes to the overall
environmental character of this part of Brentwood.

It is highlighted that any policies in the Plan to be brought forward should seek to
encourage associated developments of such clubs alongside other similar recreation facilities i.e. Hartswood Golf Club Pay as you Play, offering a different leisure opportunity.

As self-promotion of the Borough in terms of tourism, ecology and the ability please refer to the historic importance of Thorndon Park Golf Club and it's now recognised position as one of the top golf clubs in the country is an important consideration that should be reflected in the emerging plan.

Alongside this representation we have identified a small housing site that could
contribute up to 4 dwellings. It is a logical rounding off of the Green Belt and an
extension of a small existing cul-de-sac where the infrastructure is all in place. It is highlighted that the additional benefit to community services as all the sale proceeds will be utilised in maintaining the golf course's high quality thus securing greater improvements to bring it to a higher recognised golfing standard as well as securing the maintenance of the Club's woodlands and quality golf course.

Q13: No comment.

Q1: Yes - The Borough logically splits itself into three identified areas, which are also of different character. It is sensible to look at the main infrastructure corridors as individual areas. In particular to identify the central A12 Corridor as this includes the main settlements of Brentwood and Shenfield and which is favourable in sustainability terms.

Q2: Yes and No - There is the implied suggestion in Paragraph 2.17 that development opportunities will only be considered alongside opportunities surrounding the urban area within the Green Belt. As the main centres are the most sensible and sustainable to focus development the LPA should look at all sites including greenfield within the urban area, as well as the urban edges.
