Angry that she believes all green belt is now open for development.
Upset at potential impact on house prices and potential inability to sell due to new housing building works.
Believes that using brownfield sites and converting old housing would be the better option.

The NPPF generally protects Green Belts from development. It does encourage some specific growth, but this should be concentrated on previously-developed land or within towns/villages, NOT to the edge of villages.

WDC has by its own admission not yet completed its work with neighbouring authorities, so assessing based on the maximum 12,300 across the district is premature.

WDC has not clearly adopted a sequential test to prioritise development in brownfield locations, and is not doing enough to deliver homes on current development sites (e.g. land SE of Leamington station and Morrisons).

-There is clear justification for altering Green Belt boundaries to allow for future development but the Green Belt boundaries should be further revised to allow for long-term needs of the Primary Service Villages. Boundaries should not need to be altered at the end of the development plan period.

-The argument presented is ambiguous. Whereas Green Belt is clearly defined and has been for many years, according to the plan it can now be manipulated.
-There must be 'exceptional circumstances' before building on Green Belt land is allowed. The plan does not say what these circumstance could be.
-When the NPPF was published the government promised it would not be a 'free for all' for 'developers'. Mr Pickles was quoted saying 'The Green Belt is safe in our hands'. I wish this were true. One example of a planning application being approved on Green Belt is, Gateway.

-The argument you present is ambiguous because whereas the Green Belt is clearly defined and has been for many years, your article seems to say that it can now be manipulated/altered at will.
-My understanding is that there must be ''exceptional circumstances'' before building on Green Belt land can be allowed. Your book does not say what they might be and no examples are discussed.

-WCC proposal to remove some villages from the green belt to accommodate limited development suggest that all villages/hamlets should be excluded. When grouped they form part of the large parish and are at risk of becoming even more isolated without allowing for modest growth.
-Villages did not spring up overnight. They have all developed and decreased/increased in size over a long time.
-The sensible village boundaries would need to be agreed by the individual Parish Councils. Green Belt policy is designed to protect the boundaries between settlements and retain our countryside and this in my opinion would not be compromised.

RPS contests that not only is the current boundary amendment insufficient to address the needs of the village during this plan period, it is also insufficient to accommodate the needs of the village beyond the plan period, including the additional need that will be generated given its expansion during this plan period.

The District Council's decision to review Green Belt boundaries is consistent with national planning policy guidance:
-The NPPF at paragraphs 83-84 states that, once established, Green Belt boundaries should only be altered in 'exceptional circumstances', through the preparation or review of the Local Plan. At that time, authorities should consider the Green boundaries having regard to their intended permanence in the long term, so that they should be capable of enduring beyond the plan period. Further, when reviewing Green Belt boundaries local planning authorities should take account of the need to promote sustainable patterns of development.
-To boost significantly the supply of housing, the NPPF (Paragraph 47) requires local authorities, in preparing their local plans, to ensure that the full objectively assessed needs for housing are met as far is consistent with policies set out in the Framework. Seeking to meet such needs is part of the soundness test of development plans being positively prepared (Para.182). According to the Warwick District Council, the full objectively assessed housing needs for the District is 12,300 dwellings1; a scale of development for which WDC considers there is insufficient suitable and available sites outside of the Green Belt to meet. Then lack of suitable and available sites to meet objectively assessed housing needs provides the exceptional circumstances for a review of Green Belt boundaries.

Having regard to the aforementioned guidance in the NPPF, and the latest evidence base on District's housing need and housing land supply, AMEC welcomes the Council's decision to undertake a Green Belt review and of its approach to identifying suitable land to be released from the Green Belt.
