Full text:

Too much housing to the detriment of the open countryside.
Contrary to the recent refusal of planning permission on this site by NHDC.
No policy basis for increasing the buffer from the previously accepted 3% to 7%. Flawed evidence for categorisation.
Virtually no public transport.
No consideration has been taken of flood risk.
SP2 was also added at a late stage with an allocation of greater than 5ha. Unacceptable visual impact due to high visual sensitivities associated with cross country views.
Site not needed to meet the identified housing need.
Lack of sewerage capacity.
