Representation Summary:
Concerns with Policy HC8 - I believe that this policy should be far stronger and more explicit about the enforcement measures that the council will take upon non-compliance with its stated planning policy for Gypsy and Traveller sites. Concerns with Policy EC2 - I do not agree with the policy’s inclusion of the phrase that there should be a ‘strong presumption in favour of retaining strategic employment sites for employment uses.’ Rather, I believe that the council should have sufficient flexibility to ensure they can adapt to substantial changes in the planning landscape and deliver on all the employment and housing needs of residents.
