I am writing to put forward my strong views against the development of houses in the "green belt" area of Hertfordshire, these are obviously to meets luton's housing needs.
The fact that the plan is to build in a green area is preposterous, especially when you take into consideration that there are perfectly good areas of "Brown field sites" that would easily meet Luton's housing needs.
The fact that the developers plan to build on a "green belt" instead of a "brown field area" shows that the issue is largely a matter of greed- building on new land to save costs of redevelopment on old land- which frankly in this day and age is disgusting- sustainability is very in important and developers should be making it their priority to redevelop and reuse areas instead of destroying countryside. I think that the developers should be putting aside proportionally small profit losses and looking to make of areas new instead of ruining countryside that once it has been built in will never return to its original state.
