Object to KB4 on the grounds of:
- need to consider relationship with development on the southern side of the field
- southern boundary of Green Belt not clearly defined
- consistency with North Herts Green Belt assessment
- traffic southwards along the B197 and through Woolmer Green
This site should be viewed in conjunction with the proposed development by Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council on the southern side of the same field. The southern boundary of this Metropolitan Green belt area is not clearly defined and can easily be breached: this valuable Green Belt land should not be used for housing and has been so defined in the North Herts Green Belt assessment. In addition, the traffic generated southwards along the B197 and through the adjacent village of Woolmer Green will be insupportable.
