The North Hertfordshire District Council (NHDC) Proposed Submission Local Plan lists four sites in Ickleford for additional housing:

IC1 (Duncots Close) - 9 homes
IC2 (Burford Grange) - 40 homes
IC3 (Bedford Road) - 150 homes
LS1 (North Ickleford, near Lower Stondon) - 120 homes

My objections and concerns are:
1. Building on Green Belt: for sites IC1, IC2 and IC3 - the Local Plan is 'Not Sound' for the following reasons: Conflicts with National Planning Policy Framework; Conflicts with NHDC Strategic Objectives on Green Belt
2. Sewerage & Flooding: for sites IC1 and IC3 - the Local Plan is 'Not Sound' for the following reasons: Evidence shows that the main sewer cannot cope with current demand; IC1 and IC3 will add to this burden. Conflicts with NHDC policies not to develop in areas prone to flooding, and to reduce the risk of flooding from new developments
3. Lack of proper consultation: for sites IC3 and LS1 - the Local Plan is 'Not Legally Compliant' for the following reason: NHDC did not allow prior consultation on these sites
4. Traffic: for sites IC1, IC2, IC3 and LS1 - the Local Plan is 'Not Sound' for the following reason: NHDC modelling is flawed as it does not account for increased traffic from Central Bedfordshire, and conflicts with NHDC policy on transport
5. Air quality: for sites IC1, IC2, IC3 and LS1 - the Local Plan is 'Not Sound' for the following reason: Increased traffic pollution conflicts with NHDC policy on air quality
6. Relocation of the School: for site IC3 - the Local Plan is 'Not Sound' for the following reason: The consequent impact on the village conflicts with NHDC policy to protect and enhance the historic character of villages
7. No coordination with neighbouring authorities: for sites IC1, IC2, IC3 and LS1 - the Local Plan is 'Not Sound' for the following reason: NHDC have not accounted for any impact associated with the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan
