I have read the guidance notes
Policy Reference
AS01 - Development Strategy
1.1 Do you consider the AONB DPD to be legally compliant?
Yes
1.3 Do you consider the AONB DPD to be sound?
Yes
1.5 Please give details of why you consider the DPD is not legally compliant or is unsound or fails to comply with the Duty to Cooperate. Please be as precise as possible.
If you wish to support the legal compliance or soundness of the DPD or its compliance with the Duty to Cooperate, please also use this box to set out your comments.
The DPD appropriately supports the statutory purpose of the AONB and will strengthen the protection of landscape and natural environments in the area. It has been drawn up after substantial local consultation and with the praiseworthy collaboration of local authorities in the two counties/districts: a worthwhile and eminently sound achievement.
I am pleased to note that the plot of land behind St John's Avenue in Silverdale is not under consideration for residential development: many local residents objected strongly and rationally to its inclusion in an earlier list. Similarly, land at Whinny Fold which is not appropriate for development has not been included. The inclusion of AS24
(S70) :Railway Goods Yard, Silverdale for "Employment and car parking" is welcome as it might alleviate drivers' fear of not being able to park to use a train: in the absence of buses in evenings or on Sundays, reliable access to car parking is essential to encourage rail use.
