centre of the site;
·
Look at reducing the number of access points along
the Old Ashford Road in order to achieve the policy criteria for a
strong southern landscape boundary;
·
Look at the surface water drainage scheme and
attenuation and whether it will address the existing ground water
issues at the site; and
·
Look at whether further renewable energy measures
can be provided on the outline element of the scheme.
