Object to SP5:
- Building on the Green Belt
- Protection of wildlife, flora and fauna.
- Brownfield first
- Empty properties
- We are destroying our country and will pay a price in a few years.
- Ecological surveys and Badger populations
I do not live in Herts although my daughter does and many of my friends do and I object most strongly to the current plans to build thousand of houses in North Herts on Green Belt land. This is a beautiful area which will be destroyed by such massive building, not to mention the wildlife - flora and fauna.
There is absolutely no need to build on Green Belt. There is plenty of brown belt areas, plus thousands of sites in towns which could be built on. Also, there are millions of empty houses in the country, which could be purchased and used.
We are destroying our country and will pay a price in a few years.
I would also like to know if there has been an ecological survey which has taken into account the many badger setts which must be in the area. If there has been such a survey, I would like a copy. Disturbing setts without permission from Natural England is illegal and if work went ahead without knowing where the setts are, it could lead to the death of many badgers.
