I have very recently been made aware of the proposal to develop within great Ashby and surrounding areas.
This raises many concerns for me. As I am sure you are aware, parking is a significant issue within the local area. Drive down mendip way after 5pm and you would struggle to park! Both sides of the road are fully occupied by stationary vehicles and residents have difficulty driving on and off of their property because the provision for parking is poor!
Further to this, our local primary school is over subscribed. I live a five min walk away, it is my closest school yet wouldn't qualify for a place. There is no local doctor or dentist in this area, residents are required to travel to other areas. The additional homes will strain our roads and local area. Green spaces in the local area are already being overlooked and maintenance is planned to stop on several of them.
This development seems to be a money making scheme with absolutely zero consideration for the people that live in the areas to be impacted. I'm truly disgusted.
