Full text:

Site named allocation 4 shouldn't be part of the plans. The provision for the three sports clubs won't be adequate losing a large part of the community. There are currently at least ten pitches and the new plans would only give back two. Clubs will have to disband as they just won't have the facilities or space. Further development will only add to existing flooding issues. A lot of local wildlife will also lose their habitat along with a large number of mature trees.
