We support recognition that in the first instance area of public open space should be provided on site. However, the suggestion that that when this is not possible contributions will be required to enhance or provide new open spaces within 400m of development, is inappropriate.
There will be numerous apartment schemes and brownfield regeneration opportunities where public open space cannot be provided on site and there may be no areas of public open space with 400m that can be upgraded. The 400m distance threshold should be removed from the policy as there may be cases where this not practical. Where there is a need for open space to be provided off-site, the nature of that provision should be determined on the basis of the location of that site.
