100% of the proposed new BW settlement is on Greenbelt land. Under the National planning policy framework (NPPF) 2024 (see paragraph 144) states development on green belt is only permitted where exceptional circumstances are fully evidenced are justified. On the basis that 46,500 homes are available via 7 of the other proposed new settlement sites (E1, F1, F2, F3, G1, X1 and X2) aren’t on green belt land they how can exceptional circumstances apply? There is no compelling evidence to demonstrate the exceptional circumstances test is met. On this basis alone the BW site should not be taken forward.
