Local Plan 2011-2031 Proposed Submission Draft
BA3 Land south of Clothall Common
Representation ID: 1012
Received: 27/11/2016
Respondent: Mr Christopher Witt
Legally compliant? Yes
Sound? Yes
Duty to co-operate? Yes
Object to BA3 on the grounds of:
- green space
- traffic, congestion
- aesthetic impact
Clothall Common has limited green areas and traffic on and off the estate is already congested as it is. This extra burden of dwellings will affect the area aesthetically and the extra vehicles it will produce will impact on congestion on and off of the estate. Any extra route would allow other vehicles to use the area as a cut through causing further impact.

Local Plan 2011-2031 Proposed Submission Draft
Policy SP14: Site BA1 - North of Baldock
Representation ID: 1013
Received: 27/11/2016
Respondent: Mr Christopher Witt
Legally compliant? Yes
Sound? Yes
Duty to co-operate? Yes
Objection to SP14: BA1 on the grounds of:
- transport: existing congestion and congestion during construction
- historic town
- town has limited facilities
- rail connections already diminished
- Baldock cannot offer local employment - leading to commuting
- ring road would be needed
- extra senior school, infant/junior schools and nursery and doctors provisions would eat away at the land provision for new homes
- the town could only take 500 houses
Massively too many dwellings that would impact on transport links in this area and raise congestion during building with construction vehicles at time of building on an area too congested to currently cope. Too greater demand for a historic town that has limited facilities and rail connections that are already diminished. Baldock cannot offer local employment due to lack of companies so residents of new build would be adding to the already congested commute in and out of the tiny market town.
