Full text:

1. This plan has no considerations for the local economy with no proposals that support job creation in the village. At the moment Chas Low, the builder's merchants, on the KB3 site has a positive impact on the local economy - once this relocates this will be lost. The KB3 site should include retail/office premises - currently it is all housing.
2. KB3 has long-standing drainage issues, resulting in localised flooding, which the current plan does not address in detail.
