Whilst the Council's allocation strategy may have been to firstly review previously
developed land sites, this cannot be enforced as a delivery policy. A 'brownfield
first' approach is not consistent with the Framework, which does not advocate this
priority or inflexibility.
The Spatial Strategy should not be used negatively to prevent sustainable development. Policy DS4 has identified the broad locations which are to deliver growth over the Plan period, and allocated specific sites accordingly, therefore the Council should not promote a hierarchical approach to the delivery of their allocations.
