Policy S/SB: Settlement boundaries
The settlement boundaries around settlements will be drawn on the Policies Map that will accompany the draft Local Plan for consultation.
Requested Change
Granta Park (Employment areas in the Countryside) needs to be clearly identified as being an exception to development in the Countryside.
In terms of the policy direction under S/SB it is identified that outside settlement boundaries, we propose that no development would be permitted except for:
• allocations within Neighbourhood Plans that have come into force
• Rural (see policy approach H/ES) which help meet local needs for affordable housing
• development for agriculture, horticulture, forestry, outdoor recreation and other uses that need to be located in the countryside; or
• development supported by other policies in the plan.
Requested Change
Employment areas in the Countryside should be referenced under the terms of this policy.
