This Green Belt is under the biggest threat for a generation. A Draft Local Plan has just been published for the period 2014-36. It will cover both SBDC and CDC areas and has to fit within the National Planning Framework that includes provision of minimum numbers of residential dwellings. We recognise the need for house building but building the wrong housing in the wrong place is NOT the answer. The Society feels it has to challenge the analysis that leads to the conclusion that "exceptional circumstances" exist to justify the release of Green Belt around Beaconsfield.
