Please add your response below, quoting the further proposed main modification reference number or relevant document title including reference to section / page / paragraph: (limit 3000 words)
MM050
The latest issue of the DPD leaves its comments unchanged.

e.g. Brigsteer
3.151 An exceptional allocation is made at land opposite the Wheatsheaf in
Brigsteer where the local Community Land Trust is bringing forward proposals to develop the site for 7 dwellings. Although this proposal was developed ahead of neighbourhood
planning powers, it is considered that the degree of community involvement
and support for it and the intention to seek a high proportion of
affordable dwellings, justify its inclusion as a land allocation. Key issues
include mitigating impacts on biodiversity - the site includes areas of seminatural woodland,- and the achievement of suitable highway design arrangements.



This seriously misrepresents opinion in Brigsteer as evidenced by Parish Council election last year.
It is a greenfield site.
