Representation Summary:

This policy is too restrictive as the specified boundaries for infill essentially trace the built up area of the settlements, leaving no available land within the boundary for infill development. This is not consistent with the strategy set out in the Local Plan.

Policy H11 seeks to limit any infilling to two dwellings, which we believe is far too restrictive and is effectively limiting benefits that could be delivered through new development in the village. In relation to Hatton Station, it could prevent development that could itself provide facilities that are not currently available and could have a potential impact on the viability of the station.

Policy H11 is considered to be unsound as it fails the tests in respect to being positively prepared, justified, effective and consistent with national policy.
