DS19 proposes release of Green Belt land at Red House Farm. Release of such land is only justified in exceptional circumstances. No such circumstances have been given.
At DS11 and DS18 it is stated that this land will be used for 250 houses in support of the regeneration of Lillington. However, the same proportion of affordable houses (40%) is proposed as in every other part of the district. Therefore the need cannot be seen as exceptional. Repair and renewal of social housing is the every-day business of local authorities. It is not exceptional and cannot justify release of Greenbelt.
