Draft Schedule of Main Modifications to Section 2 Colchester Local Plan

Representation ID: 8702

Received: 18/11/2021

Respondent: Cllr Lewis Barber

Representation Summary:

The Neighbourhood Plan has been made and it identifies the settlement boundary for the village and identifies specific sites for housing allocations. To bring the policy into consistency and to ensure certainty for the role of the Neighbourhood Plan, the relevant modification should be amended and added to so that it is clear that proposals for development outside of the settlement boundary will not be supported unless the NP or other Local Plan policy specifically allows for it. This would bring the policy into line with that of the modification for Wivenhoe.
