Plan is fundamentally flawed - takes same approach as previous plan by building on Green Belt rather than utilising other options. Plan will take away historic villages, increase congestion and pollution and fails to regenerate town centre. Infrastructure provision within the plan is insufficient - questions infrastructure delivery. Concern for impact on character of the area. Plan is over ambitious, unachievable and not justified. No need for level of housing and development. Questions evidence for data within plan - level of growth does not match level of development proposed.

Concern for loss of Green Belt. Questions exceptional circumstances. Release of Green Belt opposes function to prevent urban sprawl. Concern for ecological impact of loss of Green Belt.
