Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 18990

Received: 28/04/2010

Respondent: Natural England

Representation Summary:

Natural England supports the allocation of the identified areas as Open Space, as per OS1. However, we believe that Rochford Council should also seek to safeguard additional areas of open space through the development management process on a case by case basis. Wherever possible, such additional open spaces should form part of a coherent multi-functional green infrastructure network.
