The plan goes for a minimum number of houses for Rutland
The Quarry Farm site numbers (650 houses) are now included in the Rutland count, further reducing the need to build as many as specified in the previous draft.

The aspiration for houses to be energy efficient and Carbon neutral is good, but the current base line has not been determined and the aspiration is tempered by the need to provide affordable houses.

Greetham Parish Council object to this site being considered as a reserve site.
This area regularly floods and there are concerns regarding development run-off from this proposed development, as it would drain into a culvert south of Main Street and then across the road into North Brook.
development is implied as being in Greetham, however this development is within the Cottesmore Parish boundary, but the impact of the development will be felt in Greetham, which is not sustainable as we do not have a shop, post office, or healthcare facility, and our bus service is poor.

Greetham Parish Council do not object to increased development on the site however, we believe only areas 1 and 2 are appropriate (subject to adequate screening from the A1)

We would not support Area 3, for the same reason that a recent planning application (ref 2023/0168/FUL ) on the same field next to Area 3 was recently refused as it was contrary to current policies: CS16, CS19, SP7, SP13, SP15 and SP23. For the same reason we would object to Area 3 due to visual impact from the B668 as you enter Rutland.

Net Zero Carbon Footprint
Chapter 4, Climate change has a very clear objective. Namely:
"making Rutland a truly green county that is net zero carbon, with the challenge of reducing high levels of waste and our carbon footprint."
We think that the plan does not give a clear enough path as to how this will be achieved. It does not give a baseline of where we are at the moment, or measurable parameters of how the goal will be monitored and achieved.
