Step 2 - Log your Objection - Before noon on 19th Feb
An effective objection needs to address key concerns related to planning - Please read CEC Guidance on objections - click here.
For success, we need to strongly emphasise that land is not allocated to housing in the local plan, that this is NOT greybelt and that there are no pressing needs to override the protections given to green belt. The key objection points are:
-Not in the Local Plan
Green Belt with Local Landscape Designation
-NOT Greybelt
-No “exceptional circumstances” or ‘Very Special Circumstances’
-No unmet need for planning approvals in -Macclesfield CEC has a 4.8 year forward pipeline -Highway safety
-Impact on infrastructure (GPs, schools, roads, etc) --Environment/Biodiversity
- Flooding
-Impact on neighbours
To help stimulate your thinking we have prepared a number of paragraphs on the main topic areas. You can use these as you wish. Feel free to copy and paste into your submission but please modify to make the words your own.
