I have serious and genuine concerns regarding North Hertfordshire District Council's (NHDC) Proposed Submission Local Plan.
The sites in Ickleford for proposed development by NHDC for additional housing are I understand:

IC1 (Duncots Close) - 9 homes

IC2 (Burford Grange) - 40 homes

IC3 (Bedford Road) - 150 homes

LS1 (North Ickleford, near Lower Stondon) - 120 homes

I am submitting objections to sites IC1, IC2 and IC3, and express concerns about site
LS1, based on conflicts between the Local Plan and NHDC/national policies.
These objections and concerns are:

1. Building on Green Belt
For sites IC1, IC2 and IC3 - the Local Plan is 'Not Sound' for the following reasons:
Conflicts with National Planning Policy Framework
Conflicts with NHDC Strategic Objectives on Green Belt.

2. Sewerage & Flooding
For sites IC1 and IC3 - the Local Plan is 'Not Sound' for the following reasons:
Evidence shows that the main sewer cannot cope with current demand; IC1 and IC3
will add to this burden.
Conflicts with NHDC policies not to develop in areas prone to flooding, and to reduce
the risk of flooding from new developments.

3. Lack of proper consultation
For sites IC3 and LS1 - the Local Plan is 'Not Legally Compliant' for the following reason:
NHDC did not allow prior consultation on these sites.

4. Traffic
For sites IC1, IC2, IC3 and LS1 - the Local Plan is 'Not Sound' for the following reason:
NHDC modeling is flawed as it does not account for increased traffic from Central
Bedfordshire, and conflicts with NHDC policy on transport.

5. Air quality
For sites IC1, IC2, IC3 and LS1 - the Local Plan is 'Not Sound' for the following reason:
Increased traffic pollution conflicts with NHDC policy on air quality.

6. Relocation of the School
For site IC3 - the Local Plan is 'Not Sound' for the following reason:
The consequent impact on the village conflicts with NHDC policy to protect and enhance the historic character of villages.

7. No coordination with neighbouring authorities
For sites IC1, IC2, IC3 and LS1 - the Local Plan is 'Not Sound' for the following reason:
NHDC have not accounted for any impact associated with the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan.
