Local Plan 2011-2031 Proposed Submission Draft

I would like to register my concerns about plans that have been made for new housing in Codicote.
My feeling is that the village road system, drainage system, and school system, would not be able to cope.
When the population increased when I first moved here 50yrs ago the drainage system could not cope with the extra housing, and the sewage system was prone to overflow in stormy weather.
The road through the village is, at the moment very difficult to use, especially during early morning and late evening due to cars parked at the roadside. With all the extra traffic from the new housing you are suggesting, the present infrastructure wouldn't manage. The car park was sold to build new houses.
The village school, would not cope with any more children, some children are unable to get a place here, even now, because of the extra houses already here. We are already having an extra classroom added to try to remedy this problem. From the plans I have seen of your proposed plan for us, I can see nothing in them to deal with this pressing problem.

Worried residents of Codicote.
