Representation ID: 1004

Received: 27/11/2016

Respondent: Charles Vale

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

Object to SP19: Green Belt, traffic impact, lack of traffic evidence, disproportionate, impact upon existing settlements

Full text:

1) Luton's unmet need for housing is not an exceptional circumstance justifying removing Green Belt Status. From living in Luton previously, I know a lot of brownfield sites within Luton have not been developed.

2) This development will cause traffic chaos through local villages like Lilley and Offley where commuters will be looking for shortcuts to the M1/Hitchin/Stevenage. The impact has not been studied nor mitigated against.

3) 2,100 homes (14% of the total allocation) is totally out of proportion, swallowing whole hamlets (205 homes) and integrating them into Wigmore which is part of Luton
