The Council is right to recognise that not all the housing needs arising from the District can be met by developing land, outside the Green Belt. Part g) of the policy therefore appropriately recognises the need to allocate some land for development which is currently within the Green Belt and sets out genuine 'exceptional circumstances' which warrant the alterations. Without this recognition the needs of the people living in some of the most sustainable villages across the District will not be met. This would be contrary to the thrust of the NPPF. Moreover it may well result in the development of land which would cause greater harm to the District (such as landscape impact, highway safety and infrastructure issues etc).
