Draft Site Allocations and Policies (incorporating IP-One Area Action Plan) Development Plan Document

Representation ID: 100

Received: 03/03/2014

Respondent: Mr Barry Hall

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

The proposal is bad policy, as it leads to a concentration of sites. The site is too close to the existing 41 pitch site at West Meadows and the 2 pitches at Henniker Road, and would result in a concentration of sites circling the rural village of Bramford, where permission has been given by MSDC for a family pitch on the B1113. The Local Plan of which this policy is part is supposed to last to 2031, but the current proposed allocation for years 1 to 5 is inconsistent with the policy for years 6 to 15.
