Local Plan 2011-2031 Proposed Submission Draft
BA5 Land off Yeomanry Drive
Representation ID: 316
Received: 14/11/2016
Respondent: Mr Ravi Tekchandani
Legally compliant? No
Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? No
Object on the following grounds:
design of the road access;
congestion;
plenty of housing on the market;
land could be used as a recreation ground;
infrastructure;
sustainable transport; and
no consideration of current residents needs.
I believe the plan is not sound for the future of North Hertfordshire because:
1. The design of the road for vehicle access would endanger pedestrians crossing to go to the park.
2. Increased morning congestion would trickle into other road areas. Considering the blind corner, current narrow road and the lack of parking of Hartsfield school drops will not marry up with the development of this land for further unnecessary housing.
3. There is plenty of housing in the area on the market.
4. The land could be put to better use as a recreational ground.
5. The ratio of recreational ground to houses is lower in Clothall Common compared to other areas.
6. The infrastructure would buckle and cause disharmony amongst residents
7. This plan does not consider the promotion of sustainable transport.
8. The initial idea of choosing this land doesn't appear to consider the needs of the current residents and although it may comply with some legal requirements it may fall foul of others with regards to ratio of cars to people.
