Council to consider which green belt sites can be developed in new review
Briefly

Brentwood Council is undertaking a review of its green belt areas, funded by £70,000 from the Ministry of Housing, to evaluate land for potential development under new grey belt classifications. This initiative aims to balance the preservation of valuable green spaces with the need for sustainable land use. The review will influence the council's Local Plan, determining which areas should be conserved and which might be appropriate for development. Expert consultants may be engaged for a comprehensive assessment, ensuring informed decisions.
The review will be a key part of the council's Local Plan, helping to inform land use and development decisions regarding green and grey belt areas.
Councillor Gareth Barrett emphasized that this funding is crucial for basing the Local Plan on clear, well-researched evidence while prioritizing valuable green belt protection.
