Concerned that as it currently worded there appears to be a risk that agricultural land could be designated as Local Green Space.
We are concerned about the impacts of this policy farm businesses, particularly those that operate in the urban fringe or for those who already have issues with trespass.

It is clear from the NPPF and NPPG that the designation or otherwise of Local Green Spaces is a matter directly applicable to a Neighbourhood Plan and not the District Council's Local Plan. HS3 is not appropriate for inclusion in the plan. It is not clear how the Council can support the principle of Local Green Spaces without knowing the detail of them and the extent to which they meet the strict requirements of the NPPF and NPPG. Indeed, paragraph 77 of the NPPF is clear that the designation will not be appropriate for most green areas or open space
