Before completing this online representation please tick the box to show you have read the 'Guidance Notes for Making a Representation'
I have read the guidance notes
Policy/Site No.
LA2.15 Housing Site at Milnthorpe Road, Holme
1.1 Do you consider that the South Lakeland District Council Land Allocations DPD is legally compliant?
No
1.2 If NO please identify which test of legal compliance your representation relates to by selecting the relevant option(s) below and completing section 1.3.
The DPD has not had regard to national policy and does not conform generally with the adopted Core Strategy and (until it is abolished) the Regional Spatial Strategy
1.3 Please give details of the change(s) you consider necessary to make the South Lakeland District Council Land Allocations DPD legally compliant, having regard to the test you have identified at question 1.2 above.
It would be helpful if you could state your proposed change to the DPD and the reasons why you think it is necessary.
I refer to the property,Greystone,Milnthorpe Road Holme LA61PX.The property was originally included for housing development as shown in Plan R653M but after consultation in July 2011 was removed and is excluded from the revised Plan R653M-mod.I note however that two neighboring properties,Laurel Bank and Rosecroft have their gardens joined in an area for the development of 72 houses which would obviously impact on my property which backs on to Rosecroft.The gardens sit on higher ground and any development in the gardens as envisaged would have a detrimental impact on me.
The National Planning Policy Framework deals specifically with 'garden grabbing' and I would refer you to paras 48 and 53 of the document which states that Planning Authorities should resist inappropriate development of residential gardens which clearly this is .Hence, the land allocations referred to above should be removed in order that the DPD is legally compliant.
3.1 If your representation is seeking a change, do you consider it necessary to participate in the oral part of the examination?
NO, I do not wish to participate at the oral examination
3.2 If you wish to participate in the oral part of the examination, please outline why you consider this to be necessary.
If my recommendation re garden development is not accepted then I would wish to present my case direct with the Inspector
