Object to CD1:
- Scale of development
- increased traffic levels
- Local employment opportunities
- Loss of Green Belt
- Brownfield sites available
The scale of the development is completely inappropriate for the village which will have a detrimental effect on the village causing an increased in the traffic volume and congestion as there are few opportunities for employment in the village.
NHDC's Local Plan of 1996 and again in 2007 confirmed that the status of the land around Codicote was Green Belt and it was protected accordingly. Why is land that NHDC considered should be "permanently open" 9 years ago now likely to end up underneath 315 houses by 2031.
