Local Plan 2011-2031 Proposed Submission Draft
Policy CGB3: Rural Workers' Dwellings
Representation ID: 1685
Received: 30/11/2016
Respondent: Mrs Davina Malcolm
Support CGB3: Must be suitable and genuinely affordable to workers
If a permanent home is given planning permission, it must be suitable and AFFORDABLE for an agricultural worker (rather than just the landowner). (There have been cases where a business was profitable, a house built, the business run down, the agricultural restrictions lifted because no agricultural worker could afford it, the agricultural buildings converted to further homes.)

KM3 Land north of High Street
Representation ID: 1696

Legally compliant? Yes
Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? Yes
Object to KM3: Visual impact, no access to remainder of field for development, extend allocation to public footpath.
KM3 offers 13 houses built along the road frontage of a field. It would destroy the visual openness of the area yet leave half the field with no viable vehicle access other than for the farmer, preventing further building. Much better to take the whole field up to the public footpath, and build more housing with a higher percentage of affordable housing, which is sorely needed.
