Representation ID: 9866

Received: 25/03/2015

Representation Summary:

The decision to delete MM8 site allocation at Victoria Avenue (CV01) due to environment and community considerations overriding any requirement for development is welcomed.

Full text:

The proposals are welcome but I wish to make the following amendments below to make the unsound Plan sound. Please register my opinion and respond via my email address.

The decision to delete MM8 site allocation at Victoria Avenue (CV01) due to environment and community considerations overriding any requirement for development is welcomed. MM9 deletion of proposed housing allocation CV03 at Rear of Old London Road is welcomed but it does not provide protection for the remainder of the woodland. To make the plan sound either an additional or new Main Modification should be created. MM9 should be expanded to encompass the entire Speckled Wood/ Upper Ore Valley green-space lying to the Rear of Old London Road and encompassing Church Street (un-adopted) to Clifton Road, Frederick Road, known locally as nomenclature Speckled Wood essentially on the grounds that the environmental and community considerations outweigh the need/requirement for housing. Policies for Local Nature Reserve, Ancient Woodland and Local Wildlife Site would appear to be the appropriate status for this site. This is in line with the Policies contained within the Local Plan.

NB Agree with the amendments above which cover all of Speckled Wood, however we suggest that CV04 should be include as it is also part of Speckled Wood.
