Dunton Green Parish Council has submitted its response to SDC's consultation on Plan 2040 and it urges all residents who have concerns about Green Belt development in the village to respond. The deadline for responses to be submitted is 11th January and there is one final opportunity to attend a public session on the Plan at Sevenoaks Leisure Centre on Tuesday 9th January 4.30pm to 7.30pm.

There are TWO Dunton Green sites listed in the ‘Baseline’ sites for Plan 2040:

HO10 - Land east of London Road, Dunton Green (GREEN BELT / HO / 235 units) and

H08 - Pounsley House, Pounsley Road, Dunton Green (GREENBELT / HO / 7 units)

This is why DGPC has concluded that it cannot support any of SDC’s proposed Options (1, 2 or 3) and has indicated that it supports none of them. To support these options would be to support inclusion of the Dunton Green sites.

Details about the Plan and information about how to respond can be found at SDC’s website https://www.sevenoaks.gov.uk/plan2040

Dunton Green Parish Council’s full response is here.

Additional Information

Follow London Road north and at the mini roundabout (junction with Station Road) go straight over. Village green to your left (noticeboard, flagpole, timber bus shelter) and shops to the right. Continue over bridge, Dunton Green Primary School and The Duke’s Head on your right. Immediately after the pub is the entrance to Glyn Davies Close but turn right just after this into the service road to the recreation ground car park (just before the terrace starts).
