Representation Summary:

Adopt a more flexible approach. High quality equipped play provision may not be required where such provision already exists in the locality. It is not appropriate to require open space on all sites to be centrally located, this does not take account of specific site characteristics/constraints.

Green Infrastructure provision should be based on quality rather than quantity. The exclusion of small incidental Green Infrastructure such as landscape buffers is not supported. Policy should be revisited and clarified with reference to national guidance to ensure that open space and green infrastructure is properly and clearly defined and to recognise the contribution which a range of spaces will bring to a development.
