Full text:

Driving in the area around Deards lane is already difficult and the roads will not cope with this increased traffic. This will also result in removal of the green belt and loss of valuable green spaces. In addition the number of houses proposed will increase the size of the village considerably and no credible has been put in place for schooling/doctors (already nearly impossible to get an appointment). The current drainage cannot cope with heavy rainfall with newer houses already liable to flooding.

KB3 Chas Lowe site, London Road

Respondent: Dr Emma Cornforth

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

Objection to KB3 on the grounds of:
- will reduce the village to a housing estate
- Chas Lowe brings business to village traders currently, reduction in services would result as no employment to be developed
- Chas Lowe reduces speed through village: safety and road would become a bypass for the A1M

Full text:

The replacement of Chas Lowe with housing will reduce the village to a housing estate. Chas Lowe brings a lot of business to the village traders. Since there are no proposals to develop employment within t he village the loss of this trade will mean many of the shops will have to close reducing services dramatically. In addition Chas Lowe reduces speed through the village. Without this there will be an accident and the road will become a bypass for the A1M

Received: 30/11/2016

Respondent: Dr Emma Cornforth

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

Objection to KB4 on the grounds of:
- roads too narrow for additional traffic
- loss of Green Belt
- loss of agricultural land
- scale of increase of new homes
- school provision
- GP provision
- drainage
- flood risk

Full text:

The roads are too narrow to deal with additional traffic. This will also result in removal of the green belt and loss of valuable agricultural land. In addition the number of houses proposed will increase the size of the village considerably and no credible has been put in place for schooling/doctors (already nearly impossible to get an appointment). The current drainage cannot cope with heavy rainfall and the newer houses already are liable to flooding.
