Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 18890

Received: 30/04/2010

Respondent: Mrs Fiona Jury

Representation Summary:

The site is located within Flood Zone 3 and is physically remote from the existing urban area/nearest settlement including public transport network. The redevelopment of the Mill would be contrary to PPS3 and PPS25. There are alternative sites available in the District that are sequentially preferable and are also more sustainable. The Council's evidence base does not support the use of the exceptions test in this instance. The site is neither developable or deliverable for housing. This objection is supported by the Environment Agency.
