Object to SP18: Doesn't meet government requirements to build on green belt, infrastructure (roads, education), loss of trees and plants, construction emissions
Weston is an area of natural beauty with Bean Valley running through it.
This is green belt land which doesn't meet the government requirements for building on and even the local MP has stated this.
By eroding the area between Weston and Stevenage you are altering the lives of people who want to live in a village and not in a town. There are already not enough resources for the existing settlements.
The roads are not designed to take additional traffic and with all schools in Stevenage oversubscribed where will all the children go to school?
The removal of green land will remove trees and plants which are required to keep the ecosphere in balance. The emissions caused by construction work will take years to reverse.
