Alternative Sites Consultation

Representation ID: 44260

Received: 08/04/2010

Respondent: Mr Raymond Bullen

Representation Summary:

I support the development of these sites, in their entirety, for the provision of 500 homes and 7.2ha of employment during the second phase (2016-2021). They bridge between sites K01 at Thickthorn and K17 at Southcrest Farm. Although in the green belt, the joint review describes them as being of low landscape value owing to previous development usage.

In my response to the original consultation I referred to the potential of other sites in the area for use as a retirement village. These additional sites would complement and support that idea.

This training centre, adapted and added to, could become the hub facility for the retirement village.
