Harborough Local Plan 2011-2031, Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 6308

Received: 02/11/2017

Respondent: Mr Richard Beer

Representation Summary:

The existing tree screen is coniferous planted by the farmer trying to take the easiest route to get the site developed. They are incompatible with local species and should be replaced as such. To ensure protection of the Ridgeline to the North, the woodland boundary should be widened from its current footprint to ensure any development does not intrude. To assist in this and meet other objectives reduce the number of houses proposed by one third.
