Representation ID: 14522

Received: 19/03/2018

Respondent: Mrs Andrea Donnison

Representation Summary:

Again this is a working farm field.Brownfield sites within the area covered by the GNLP need to be used up first, and farmland that is viable to grow crops should be the last land to be taken up. As previously stated on my comments for another proposed site, we import far too much from abroad and allowing agricultural land, currently helping to feed our burgeoning population, to be proposed should not be considered unless it is the only option left. Accepting working agricultural sites sets a precedent that others will quickly latch on to.
