Representation Summary:

Station Fields Foxton (HELAA site 40084)

The overarching vision for Station Fields is to create a place that is planned and delivered as a sustainable new community and provides a unique opportunity to sustainably connect people, creating healthier, happier places where people thrive and where nature is embedded, existing features protected, and new habitats are created for wildlife to flourish.

Having addressed the HELAA comments above, it is not considered that there are constraints which should preclude development of the site. The emerging masterplan and landscape vision has been designed to take into account the relevant opportunities and constraints and mitigate any impacts as required through careful design, layout and landscaping.
