Draft Nottinghamshire Minerals Local Plan

Representation ID: 31161

Received: 28/09/2018

Respondent: Mrs Jackie Armstrong

Representation Summary:

5.11 VISUAL IMPACT:

Preliminary Landscape & Visual Assessment of Potential Minerals Sites Report May 2018. This report doesn't contain the scoring methodology (Appendix 3), individual site summary sheets (Appendix 1), landscape character & visual impact summaries (Appendix 2) so CAGE wasn't able to properly assess it.

CAGE agrees that the network of sites N, NW of Newark and those just across the border in Lincolnshire should be assessed for cumulative impacts. The report notes that it hasn't considered cumulative impacts on the wider landscape yet, or cumulative impacts on other developments or visual receptors. These activities are deferred.
