Representation ID: 5126

Received: 25/02/2015

Respondent: Dr William Millar

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? Yes

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

Given the number of identified brown field sites in the consultation document, the development of 33 houses on this site is an unnecessary conversation of a green space into a built environment. This is the only area of green land available to children in the area and is used by adults and children for recreational purposes. There is a high density of housing around the space, with a young population and no other available recreational area nearby, within walking distance available to children. The council should reconsider the allocation of any building on this land.
