the Local Plan is unsound because of the scale and distribution of housing and selection methods used for appraising individual sites. Insufficient regard has been given to the benefits site R073 can deliver and that the selection process is not sufficiently reflective of sustainability issues.
It is a naturally contained site bordered by existing development on the west and roads to the north and south. It provides the opportunity to improve the character and integrity of Hatton Green. The SHLAA amendments give no particular regard to the benefits the scheme could bring. The community would benefit from car parking associated with the church, providing extra land and facilities for the well subscribed primary school, providing car parking. Considers that impact on the character and integrity of the village is overstated. Mindful of the need to screen the Grade II listed Church, providing landscaping and parking between the Church and site would be of benefit to all. Overall disagree with the SHLAA assessment that the site is unsuitable.
