The green rim designation has no clear purpose or evidence base to support it- it appear in part to be justified in relation to connecting ecological/ natural and semi-natural green space ( although without any clear explanation as to why this is necessary). In a context where the plan is failing to both meet objectively assessed housing need and failing to make use of appropriate development opportunities within the Borough boundary the designation of a green rim is premature and prejudicial to the proper long-term planning of the area.
