Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Respondent: Sport England (East Region)
All of the identified open spaces should be protected and any proposal affecting the open space should be considered against a Development Management policy on open space protection. This preferable as it provides clarity and certainty to developers and the community and provides a consistent basis for determining planning applications which would accord with PPG17. The DPD should identify and protect all of the district's principal open spaces. Other open spaces not identified can be protected through a development management policy as it will not be possible to define every open space of value in the DPD
