Representation Summary:

Objection to whole Local Plan:
- lacks vision and realism
- no understanding of what makes Hitchin different to Letchworth
- consultation on the plan has been limited to issue of diffuse papers replied to by earnest, informed, well-intentioned but unrepresentative groups
- zero effort to involve people off the streets through 'Planning for Real' workshops modeling not paper, collection of life experiences from real people
- relies heavily on advice from NLP: academic model and desk based studies.
