CEG support the general development criteria of policy 6.3 and note from evidence prepared so far on behalf of the Promoters that the development of Dunton Hills Garden Village will be in total compliance with its criteria. Compliance is easily achievable in the case of this single large strategic site with its existing characteristics and the development's ability to build in appropriate elements.

The evidence already prepared on behalf of the Council and the Promoters demonstrate the ability of the large single site at Dunton Hills to deliver effective site planning. The ability to deliver will be enhanced by the master planning process required by policy 7.1.

The Dunton Hills Garden Village site lies directly adjacent to the key gateway of the A128/A127 road junction. The master planning process required as part of policy 7.1 together with the size of the single site affords the opportunity to deliver a positive approach to the borough.

Support the allocation of the strategic housing led site at Dunton Hills. Evidence prepared so far on behalf of the Council and the Promoters demonstrates that the site offers the most appropriate option for a large scale strategic development.

Strongly support policy in its identification of Dunton Hills Garden Village as a new self-sustaining community offering a mix of associated and integrated uses.
Support the requirement to produce a Masterplan for the site. Suggest master planning for the site should progress rapidly from the work already undertaken.
The aims of paragraphs 7.5 and 7.6 can be achieved by concentration of development on the single Dunton Hills site.

The achievement of this policy aim will be easier as part of a master planned self-sustaining new garden village than in a series of extensions to existing villages.
We suggest the addition of "market signals" in the first sentence of the final paragraph of the policy so that it reads:
"The final housing mix, type and tenure will be subject to negotiation, account will be taken of the nature, constraints, character and context of the site, market signals and development viability".
CEG also express some concern about the policy's statement about the provision of a minimum of 5% self build properties. In the case of Dunton Garden Village this would translate to a minimum of 175 properties of a type which remain unproven. The provision of self build properties and their integration into the new community should be assessed at the time of application and subject to the suggested considerations above.

It is the correct approach to ensure that proposals for new residential development should take a design led approach to density, making schemes sympathetic to local character and making efficient use of land.
The provision of housing in the context of a carefully master planned new self-community will achieve this aim with ease.

Supports policy and suggested mix and phasing contained in Appendices 2 and 3.
The allocation of a new garden village on a site largely in a single ownership, requiring no third party land and planned in a comprehensive way through the preparation of a master plan will help to ensure the achievement of an appropriate mix of uses, phasing and early delivery.

Support the flexibility noted in paragraph 7.32 which confirms that the "numbers set out in the draft policy provide a guide and are not necessarily a cap depending on the appropriateness of increased density or more efficient land use in line with policies in this Plan".

CEG supports the allocation of 5 hectares for employment uses as part of the Dunton Hills Garden Village proposal. The precise size and siting of the allocation will be determined during the master planning process and will have regard to site layout and design.
