Medway Council green belt review occurred without local residents being informed or public consultation. If green belt land is redesignated or boundaries reviewed this should be done with transparency and public engagement.

If Gravesham develop the land under their control and Medway allow development on what is currently green belt land, urban sprawl will join Gravesham to Medway, defeating the primary purpose of green belt.

National guidance states that for land to become grey belt it should have been previously developed.
Chapter Farm is and has always been crop producing land .
