Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 19742

Received: 30/04/2010

Respondent: Stolkin and Clements (Southend) LLP

Agent: Firstplan

Representation Summary:

Option NLR2 adjoins Rayleigh to the east but extends west beyond the current settlement boundary it therefore encroaches onto the green belt. It would also be difficult to create strong defensible green belt boundaries to the north, south and west. If brought forward, the site would need to carefully consider the area of Flood Risk Zone 3, particularly as this runs through the centre of the site.
