Which approach to the safeguarding of open space do you think would be most effective?

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.

South of Great Wakering

Representation ID: 19368

Received: 29/04/2010

Respondent: Natural England

Representation Summary:

The proposed employment area south of Great Wakering is likely to significantly reduce the visual separation between Great Wakering and North Shoebury, with the result that these two settlements may effectively coalesce. This would appear to be contrary to one of the primary purposes of the Green Belt. Such coalescence would also significantly reduce Great Wakering's identity and 'sense of place' as a largely self-contained community.
