Representation Summary:

The village cannot sustain the continual development, and lifting of the Green Belt will have adverse effects on the village.
1. Flood risk - The site has always been boggy, building of more houses on School Road will create more surface water and increase the water table resulting in more flooding.
2. Schooling - Hockley Heath school and nearby secondary schools are already at capacity.
3. Sewerage - sewerage in the village is poor, any large development would need replacement of the sewerage, causing disruption to traffic & increase congestion.
4. Pollution - increasing homes in the village will increase the pollution levels, which will be right next to the school
5. Nuisance - construction of new housing would cause noise, pollution and danger (near the school). This would be detrimental to those who live near the site.
6. Poor Public transport links in the village
