I&O_9351
My name is XXX (tel XXX), I am a resident of Barnton. I oppose building on greenfield sites, especially on NOR01 as these backroads are a popular place for locals to walk and are part of the character of the local community. This area is also very accessible to people with limited mobility (eg.wheelchair users) who may not be able to otherwise access green spaces. It is also an accessible walk for people who may not drive, and I also know that many people use this space for cycling due to the scenery, good road, and lack of traffic. I strongly feel that building here will negatively affect the local community. My answer to question SS11 is A - retain the greenbelt. I am also very disappointed in the lack of publicity this proposal has had and feel that most residents are unaware of this. Especially when considering how much this will impact the community. I would be more than happy to answer any more questions or engage further

To whom it may concern, I am contacting you regarding the consultancy to build more homes in Northwich. In regards to question SS11 I choose Option A - to retain the green belt. Our green spaces and wildlife are of great importance to me and it should be to everyone. There are plenty of undeveloped sites in Northwich town centre so I suggest you focus your plans there. My contact details are, should you wish to discuss this further, are:

To whom it may regard I’m writing to express concerns for any increase in new homes in and around the Barnton area. The Barnton swing bridge is already struggling with the increase traffic from the Winnington developments especially since the local council seemingly made the mistake of not insisting that improvements were made to the bridge as part of the developments. On top of that there seems to be no additional public facilities being mentioned to help with the extra numbers on schools, doctors, dentists etc For one particular question- SS11 I strongly support option A

Re: Hinderton Road, Chester 1.16 - We consider only a variation of OPTION B will deliver the most meaningful, logical and sustainable growth and delivery strategy for the Borough; the reasons of this will be presented in our answers that follow and we set out our alternative OPTION D below. 1.17 However, there is a recognition that rural communities must also provide an “uptick” and deliver infrastructure. There are over 6,000 on the housing waiting list and an increasing number reliant upon being housed in temporary accommodation. These households cannot wait for a Local Plan to deliver aspirational housing number solutions, they need housing solutions now. There is a need to address this acute and critical housing needs across the open market and affordable housing sectors along with delivery of essential infrastructure and attracting investment to deliver economic growth and jobs. 1.18 The opportunity therefore exists for the Local Plan Review to take a more progressive, balanced and proportionate approach to sustainable growth - one that offers to recalibrate and deliver greater relative sustainability to not just the Major or Key Service Centre settlements but also the Local Service Centres too. 1.19 However, the emerging plan will need to follow the direction set out in NPPF and adhere to the “Duty to Co-operate” and part of this will be the need to recognise that there has effectively been a complete collapse of housing delivery in the adjacent districts of Wrexham, Wirral and Shropshire over the past 20 years. 1.20 This submission urges a need for co-operation and there now being consideration of CWACC taking up the slack in delivering extra growth. It has proven that it is capable of delivery over the past/current 2010 to 2030 plan period and the level of delivery achieved indicates that it has capacity for additional growth. [See attachment para 1.21-1.23 tables and suggestion for Option D on housing growth and spatial distribution.] 1.24 This largely adopts the revised settlement hierarchy that is presented under SS4 but presents them in logical groupings and the only fundamental change is that Christleton moves up a tier – it benefits from a host of support services including Primary and Secondary schools and for this reason alone must be considered much more than just a Local Service Centre. 1.25 We consider that these amendments would allow the emerging plan to be found “sound” and we would welcome the opportunity to discuss these with Officers. [See NPPF context attached para 2.1]

In examining these options, Winsford Town Council has referred to the attached Appendix 1 (Draft Spatial Strategy Options). These show the following: - That Option A would mean over 10,000 additional homes in Winsford Options B and C would mean an additional 3-5,000 homes in Winsford The distribution of new housing in the Winsford area Having examined these options, Winsford Town Council wishes to support Option C for the following reasons: - The options reflect discussions at Town Council meetings and also discussions involving members of the public Option C delivers the ambitions set out in the Local Plan in a strategic sense Housing is distributed more fairly throughout the borough as a whole The options builds on existing networks and facilities In coming to the conclusion outlined above, Winsford Town Council has taken into account the points set out in the Local Plan documents issued to date and has also taken soundings of public opinion. The Town Council has also noted CWAC’s comment that under all of the options, it may be necessary to identify new areas or broad locations for development if not enough land can be identified within settlements, and that these areas may be located in the Green Belt and/or countryside. In addition, Winsford Town Council has noted that land has been excluded where there are constraints that would act as potential ‘showstoppers’ to restrict future development for example designated habitats sites, areas of flood risk and significant hazard zones. Finally, Winsford Town Council notes that that approximately 100 areas have been identified for potential growth and/or future allocation in the new Local Plan.
Option C - Sustainable transport corridors

I’m writing in relation to question SS 11, and I choose option A to retain the green belt. There are many sites in CWAC that require regeneration before building new houses and many of us have paid higher prices to live in/around areas near greenbelt.

I am answering question SS11 and my choice is Option A to retain the Green Belt. I believe housing developments need to focus first on brownfield sites and also more thought is needed into infrastructure to support new residents ( doctors, public transport, schools etc) and to balance retaining green spaces.

One of the things I love about living in this area is the marsh, the woods & the surrounding fields! Have lived locally for 33 years, I am lucky enough to live in Little Neston down by the marsh, lovely area with amazing views over to North Wales … We, Nestoners, LOVE where we live & DEFINITELY do NOT want further house building on our green belt - I am referring to the the plans for the Leighton Rd area!! DO NOT WRECK OUR GREEN BELT!!! I look forward to hearing positive news,

We would support Option B as the most appropriate strategy as this would appear to offer the most balanced approach to future development across the borough (i.e. development is spread more evenly across the key settlements).

The detail of each option is discussed in more detail below, under option specific questions, however at present, we support none of the presented options in their current form. (See attachment for all responses) Miller Developments believe that subject to the detailed amends, Option B is the best option, however, the sustainable principle of option C is supported and would be the next preferred option.
