Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Representation ID: 467

Received: 01/02/2019

Respondent: Mr Neil Hipkiss

Representation Summary:

This policy ignores pollution that is already outside appropriate guidelines, e.g. the Stockbridge AQMA, which has been above the maximum allowed NO2 measure for over 6 years. This is unacceptable.

Regarding pollution generated by future developments, a policy committing the Council to "...require that the impacts are minimised and/or mitigated to an acceptable level" is quite simply not good enough and needs to be more specific.
