Representation Summary:

Policy BAG1 - Land north of Rosswood Farm
Part 1 of the policy requires the development to comprise smaller family units (1-3 bedrooms).
This policy appears to be contrary to the emerging Local Plan housing mix policy and it is not clear what alternative evidence is available to justify a departure in the Neighbourhood Plan policy.
Part 3 of the policy requires 9% of market dwellings to be specialist housing for older people; we consider that there is insufficient justification for this.
Part 4 of the policy restricts development to the roadside only; we consider this restriction unjustified and unnecessary.
