Representation Summary:

Policy CSP3 – Towns and Neighbourhood Areas and the Green Belt
A network of new Neighbourhood Growth Areas are proposed to provide 6,792 dwellings in highly sustainable locations on the edge of the Urban Area. We support the allocation of Redrow Homes’ site as part of strategic allocation WSA2.

Paragraph 3.48 states that it is important that “neighbourhood Growth Areas are master-planned together, regardless of ownership” and phasing plans will be required to set out triggers for the provision of required infrastructure. In order for strategic sites to accord with this requirement, the Council must ensure that all land allocated is available before being included within the allocation boundary and any joint masterplans prepared should only be expected to be high level concept plans to allow for flexibility.
