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

Representation ID: 7462

Received: 20/09/2021

Respondent: Rebecca Bolt

Representation Summary:

I do not believe that the Borough (or Country) needs to build all of these new houses, but I realise the pressure comes from Central Government to do so. I have read through the Development Strategy topic paper draft alternatives and am very pleased that Option 2 is the most viable way forward. Development in urban areas and along the railway line is sensible as transport connections are already in place.
I do think that new settlements are a good option. Please do not allocate 500 houses to key Rural Service Villages!
