Local Plan 2040 Draft Plan - Strategy options and draft policies consultation

Representation ID: 5341

Received: 03/09/2021

Respondent: Mrs Clare Buddle

Representation Summary:

The different locations should be differentiated in separate paragraphs: if they are all together they appear to roll into one and thus all seem achievable, contrary to the government’s clear town centre first strategy and the borough’s ongoing work to improve the town centre.

“These should preferably be ”… should be changed to “These must be…” to boost sustainability and reduce car reliance.

The sentence “Certain uses that have…” must be omitted as it encourages inappropriate, unsustainable applications.
