I would like to hereby submit my objection on the proposed modifications on Baldock Local Plan BA3.

This site is used for recreational purposes by the Baldock residents. The proposed modification does not include any area for recreation and open spaces. On the contrary to all the objections previously submitted against the proposed plan in the 2017 consultation, these modifications are adding more houses to be built and does not address the concerns of residents relating to infrastructure, schools and open spaces.

The schools are over subscribed already without any new development, roads are grid locked by the Baldock crossing and the railway station is already at full capacity during peak hours. The modifications do not address or solve any of these issues, it is mind boggling adding additional housing and reducing open/green space. This will also add to the already high air pollution and risk of flooding.

I therefore categorically object to the modifications.
