Full text:

I would like to briefly lodge my objection to the proposed development on greenbelt land around Great Ashby for the following reasons:

1) Insufficient infrastructure - schools - one primary that is oversubscribed and no secondary school limited doctors spaces

2) Road infrastructure - there is not enough space for parking and driving as it is so more cars will compound the issue. Traffic will be unbearable through narrow streets - The A1 traffic is woeful in rush hour too.

3) Destruction of wildlife and Greenbelt land

4) Railway - the current train line cannot cope with existing commuters into London etc

5) This is not a special circumstance that requires development on Green Belt land just to fill the council requirements for housing numbers.
