My objections to the NHDC local plan for building to the East of Luton.

Luton's unmet needs do not warrant removing green belt status from the area as they are not an exceptional circumstance according to the Government's own criteria

Making the area unprotected will cause other developers to build over all of it. All of it will be gone forever.

We should use Luton's existing brownfield sites to accommodate all of its unmet housing needs. The town really needs more housing and development to turn around this already fragmenting community. Approving building on green belt will make existing brown sites less attractive to developers and so far less likely they will build on it . There are already many brown sites available and there have been for some time.
Building on greenbelt is all about developer's profit, not housing need.

The green belt development would further congest already congested roads in East Luton. The hinted at link road that doesn't exist, doesn't have planning permission and may never be built.

2000 homes built around an existing 200 is disproportionate.

It is not right to put 14% of the NHDC total allocation in this one area.
