Respondent: Miss Ruth Thompson
Legally compliant? No
Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? No
From my understanding of the local plan option consultation there was no weight of supporting evidence for an extremely large scaled development upto 700,000 sq mts in the magna part area and location. 700,000 sq mts is unjustified for inclusion, it exceeds the requirements for non-rail served freight distribution in the whole of Leicestershire. There are more environment and pollution friendly sights directly adjacent to motorways already being built and developed within the larger area, some of which are rail served which is the governments preferred strategy. There is no evidence for more low skilled jobs
