Core Strategy Preferred Approaches

Representation ID: 1500

Received: 08/07/2008

Representation Summary:

While open space portection & enhancement is supportable in principle, this policy approach must reflect that County Council schools & other premises must be allowed the opportunity to renew & expand on site as required. Other national guidelines rightly safeguard the provision & replacement of playing fields & pitches, but to regard the whole of such sites as open space & include them in another layer of policy protection would be too limiting & heavy handed.
