Object on the following grounds:

Full text:

I wish to strongly disagree with the proposed plan to build on "Green Belt" land bordering east Luton.

Why is a plan being put forward, being considered to build on Green Belt land at all? Land is classified as Green Belt for very good reasons and I can see no "good" reason to change the status of the land east of Luton. The country relies on us all abiding by the rules and regulations that have been agreed/passed by government and the people of this land so why is the current status under consideration?

There is no doubt that more homes are required in this country but care must be taken on where new homes are built so as to preserve a balance for all of the community.

I understand that there are numerous "Brown Field" sites within the Luton area that may better meet the development requirements and I hope that these will be fully considered before the irrevocable step is taken to permanently change the status of this very cherished plot of "Green Belt" land.

As a life long resident of Luton, I wish to participate in the Examination Stages for NHDC Local Plan 2011-2030, and wish to change parts of the Plan.

I ask you to please consider my objection as you carry out your review.
