Respondent: Bishops Tachbrook Parish Council

The policies set out in PO15 are supported. In particular, the principle of Green Wedges is welcomed since it
* provides an appropriate separation of the town from the village essential to maintain the characters of both;
* takes account of the different roles and character of different areas that it includes;
* recognises the intrinsic character and beauty of the countryside and supports thriving rural communities within it;
* ensures that valuable farming land is safeguarded from development that is better located in an urban framework.
The way the green wedge is set up is also important. Reference should also be made to Paper B as part of this submission, which includes more initiatives to support the green infrastructure agenda.
