Village Housing Options and Settlement Boundaries

Representation ID: 63226

Received: 08/01/2014

Respondent: Mrs E Brown

Agent: Stansgate Planning

Representation Summary:

-Land at Oak Lea Farm should be included in the Village Housing DPD or main Local Plan otherwise it will be completely missed again.
-It is in a highly sustainable location being on the edge of Coventry. Coventry centre can be access by bus and bicycle and local employment areas and services/facilities by foot.
-Lies immediately adjacent to Finham and development would permanently round off the settlement. There are clear permanent boundaries and would not cause further encroachment into the Green Belt.
-The site is of low Green Belt value and is of low landscape value. Detailed appraisal shows no constraints to development, thus according with the strategy set by WDC and NPPF guidance.
-House builders have repeatedly approached landowners, confirming its market suitability.
