Joint Local Plan Additional Modifications

Representation ID: 22517

Received: 27/04/2023

Respondent: Sproughton Parish Council

Sound? Not specified

Representation Summary:

The original text makes it clear that enabling development would only be considered in exceptional circumstance as a last resort. The modification text however suggests a consideration only on a planning balance. We would suggest the addition of text as follows ‘…conservation of a heritage asset, are in such exceptional circumstances and the only identified final resort such that this outweighs the disbenefits of departure from plan policies’
