Representation Summary:
Object on the following grounds:
disappointed that Policy 58 (Letchworth Garden City Design Principles) has not been included in the proposed Local Plan;
the references to Letchworth in the Design SPD do not give sufficient weight to the importance of Letchworth's heritage context;
the Design SPD, adopted before the NPPF, should be reviewed; and
the retention of Policy 58 would achieve the requirements of para 126 of the NPPF to have a positive strategy for the historic environment.
