Received: 29/07/2022

Respondent: Roxton Parish Council

Representation Summary:

6.68 Employment in the countryside:
Regarding Policy DM8, it is the strong view of Roxton Parish Council that any development to the Southwest of the Black Cat roundabout in the vicinity of Roxton will contravene this policy, specifically with regards to clauses viii, ix and x. Roxton PC also believe that clauses (i) to (v) will not be met if considered at this point in time.
RPC request policy DM8 should refer to policy 75 in the Local Plan 2030, specifically that development in the countryside would not create significant demonstrable harm of an area. RPC also believe that this policy should refer to policy 7S of Local Plan 2030 in terms of the need to demonstrate community need, community support and Parish Council support.
