Uttoxeter Rural Parish Council Rep 7 6 Alexandra Crescent Uttoxeter ST14 7LQ Telephone 01889 566393 [email protected] Amanda Willis Programme Officer for East Staffordshire Borough Council East Staffordshire Local Plan - Planning Policy East Staffordshire Borough Council P.O. Box 8045 Burton on Trent DE14 9LG 7th August 2015 Dear Ms Willis Thank you for your e-mail regarding the Local Plan Main Modifications Consultation dated 10th July 2015. The Uttoxeter Rural Parish Council would like to make the following representation. We are pleased with the proposal for the need for a Strategic Green Gap between Bramshall and Uttoxeter, which preserves the identify of Bramshall Village. However, we have noticed that there is no provision for a Strategic Green Gap for Spath and Stramshall and we would like the following to be considered by the inspector before the Final Report is published. Spath To create a strategic green gap in the area between Uttoxeter Rural Parish Council boundary and the River Tean and the Spath Bus Park and Garages/Brooklands House. Some of this land is flood plan. This will preserve the hamlet of Spath and ensure that Uttoxeter Town Council housing does not join with Spath. Stramshall To create a strategic green gap in the area, starting from the Allotments (opposite Dairy Farm House) and moving towards Spath to the Ware house/Lorry Park and the Farm buildings on the opposite side of the road at Bridge Farm area of Spath. This is required in order for the hamlet of Spath to retain its own identity and not to be joined with Stramshall Village. Thank you for your consideration of our request to ensure Stramshall and Spath keep their identify for future generations. Kind regards Virginia Gibson Parish Clerk Parish Clerk: Mrs Virginia Gibson 6 Alexandra Crescent Uttoxeter ST14 7LQ .
