Full text:
Sites KB1, KB2 and KB4 propose a cumulative total of 584 dwellings, which results in a 31% increase in the size of the village and exceeds the threshold requirement for a specific Strategic Policy (SP). There is no SP in Section 4 for Knebworth and therefore the impact of housing development on this Category A village has not been properly considered, and is in conflict with the NPPF.
