Section 7: Development Management policies
Proposed changes to national Policy and guidance (7.24 to 7.26)
We support the proposal to ensure that revised planning will enable the creation of beautiful places.
While we recognise that council has a responsibilities to grow housing stock and accommodation in the borough, as an integral part of the Oxford-Cambridge Arc development, we ask council to ensure that all buildings and areas of beauty and historic significance are given a high level of care, attention and protection from over population growth. SPC are opposed to any developments which threaten rural villages being absorbed into housing estates and suburbs of Bedford.
