The proposed policy on Spatial Strategy (Ref Mod 3) claims to provide a clear strategic basis for proposed site allocations. Proposing Green Belt locations for development on the edge of built-up areas is contrary to established Green Belt policies. A key purpose of the Green Belt is to curb urban sprawl but the proposed policies include 'urban extension' which is another way of saying urban sprawl. The Sustainability Appraisal Addendum recognises that proposed urban extensions south of Coventry would have cumulative and potentially major negative effects on landscape, visual amenity and openness through loss of Green Belt and that these would remain even after so-called mitigation. The proposed policy must be modified to apply only to areas outside the Green Belt.
