Respondent: Katrina & John Parkin
We support the site as we are realistic about the need for more housing, which is better delivered in a coordinated means with infrastructure to support the provision of the needs of the community in the climate emergency. The number of houses seems excessive however, given the need to retain green space and protect existing trees and biodiversity. Please ensure that the utmost care is taken in the building of the new area with sustainable ideologies (referring to advice from experts such as the Royal Horticultural Society) as well as safe, protected cycle routes to encourage cycling for all ages.
