Joint Green Belt Study (JGBS)

- The JGBS indicated that variations in the quality of land in the green belt and therefore some areas around the towns may be considered for development and therefore, removed from the green belt. It is fundamental to note that green belt is not a designation for landscape quality, but rather a functional planning designation for the purposes set out in the NPPF.
- The scoring system of the green-belt study is not consistent with the up-to-date guidance set out in the NPPF.
- However landscape character and quality is an important consideration and is addressed by the Cooper Partnership Landscape Appraisal.
