Representation Summary:

Sustainability Appraisal

Green Belt criteria has not been applied consistently across the site assessments in the SA. SA methodology fails to distinguish between potential level of Green Belt impacts, particularly around settlements with sites of moderate-high impacts expected to perform comparatively better than sites of high or very high impact.

Education criteria has not been applied consistently across the site assessments in the SA. Education criteria assessment unclear. The only criteria for a major or minor impact is whether the housing is a ‘new’ development. SA for site 515 refers to minor negative impact so it is not clear how a subsequent ‘major’ impact (pre mitigation) has been derived.

Overall, neither the Greenbelt or education criteria appear to have been applied consistently.
