Local Plan 2011-2031 Proposed Submission Draft

I would like to object to the above planned developments, they are poorly conceived and will detract from the village and the quality of life of both existing residents of this country village and of the potential residents of this housing complex. The site is distinctly separate from the current historical largely linear housing along the high street. This means a large number of vehicles will be leaving and entering this estate, and this development will be bolted on to the existing village in a completely unsympathetic manner. Alongside the excess numbers of vehicles this will generate, especially at commuting time- there are no jobs within the village and so this traffic will overwhelm a woefully inadequate road system. Additionally, there are no appropriate facilitates within the village to properly support these new residents, resulting in even more traffic. Whilst new housing is obviously required simply building disproportionate housing estates alongside small villages is clearly not the answer. We need all our communities in North Hertfordshire to build houses in a community sustainable manner. These developments particularly BK3 would blight the natural beauty of this country village.
