A series of changes were made by the government at the end of last year to the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), The revised NPPF says that brownfield sites will still be the priority for new development, however it will also require councils to review the boundaries of their green belts and identify lower quality “grey belt” land within those areas that can be built on. That would include any land that did not “strongly contribute” to green belt purposes. Those purposes include limiting urban sprawl and preserving the character of historic towns. More specific guidance on how local authorities can access their green belt land is due later this month.
