I am writing about the house building in Baldock, personally I think the suggested amount is to much, I agree maybe 500 on Clothall would be enough no more, the town doesn't have the infrastructure for this amount of houses schools already over crowded so would need 2 more nursery's, 3 infants and junior schools and a bigger secondary school already the land is nearly all built on, let alone the roads and traffic issues this may cause when building houses and more roads. The town also doesn't have enough employment to sustain this amount of houses.
