Sustainability Appraisal and Habitats Regulation Assessment

Comment

Representation ID: 5550

Received: 17/03/2023

Respondent: Millwood Designer Homes

Agent: Savills

OBJECT: Additional assessment of the developable HELAA sites is required to consider the likely effects of development.

SUPPORT: The SA conclusion for the Land at Ansells Yard is supported. The 18 dwellings allocated at the Land at Ansells yard in the WGNP should be re-allocated to a more sustainable site, such as the Land East of St Peter’s Church.

SUPPORT: MDH supports the Sustainability Appraisal’s conclusion that Wisborough Green should undergo ‘significant growth’ in order to meet the strategic need for houses across the district. However, Scenario 3 for the allocation of at least 125 homes is preferred as scenarios 1 and 2 do not provide ‘significant growth’.
