Full text:

Baldock is a Town with infrastructure that will not adequately support its current population. Overlaying additional cross-infrastructure will urbanise the whole concept of a town and create a metropolis.
The identity of a town is crucial to the balance of a good neighbourly relationships.
The rail services are already over crowded and the platform is dangerous at peak times.
The proposed scheme will destroy this town socially and will advocate criminal denizens due to over crowding and a breakdown of the small town social fabric.
The building on prime aggricultral land is also a travesty of common sense.
