Representation Summary:

Object to WE1: more sympathetic opportunities within a wider village boundary, closer to village core,

Full text:

Paragraph 13.340
The boundary has been drawn very tightly around the substantive part of the settlement of Weston leaving little room for future development, other than on the identified Site WE1 (40 houses). Whilst we raise objection to that allocation, it is considered that additional housing should have been considered closer to the existing built form of the village, in smaller development' rather than as one large housing estate. This could be achieved by a more sympathetic and forensic approach to the established sites in Weston, that could be included within the Development Boundary.
