Representation ID: 11812

Representation Summary:
This area is part of the green belt and part of a site of local importance for nature conservation. As such, it is inappropriate that it be allocated for housing. It is essential that such areas are retained and protected for the long term. If development is allowed on such areas, it is the 'thin end of the wedge' and it threatens the integrity of the green belt in this area which means so much to the local population. This area should not be removed from the green belt just because it is cheaper to develop than brownfield sites.
