I do not agree with Draft Policy Direction 7. The policy suggests Green Belt release may be justified, but exceptional circumstances have not been demonstrated. Areas like SG04 (South of Kenilworth) should be removed, as they fail sustainability tests and threaten historic landscapes. The sequential approach is unclear, and brownfield sites must be prioritised first before considering Green Belt land. Weak protections risk setting a precedent for incremental Green Belt loss, leading to urban sprawl. The policy must commit to preserving the Green Belt, ensure development is truly necessary, and prioritise brownfield regeneration before release.
