Bedford Borough Local Plan 2040 Plan for Submission

Representation ID: 9500

Received: 29/07/2022

Respondent: The Forest of Marston Vale Trust

Representation Summary:

Omitting this specific reference is unhelpfully ambiguous, and also inconsistent with the treatment in other allocation policies.
