Representation Summary:
Infrastructure Issues:
Flood Risk - lack of evidence to support that sites BL1, BL2 & BL3 do not pose a significant flood risk. These sites feed into the Rivers Blythe and Cole catchments. In past 15 years this area has had multiple 1:100 year flood events.
Climate change will increase risk, and impact of 1,600 homes cannot be underestimated.
Health services - Current facilities are struggling to cope with housing numbers, proliferation of care homes and homes for older people, and system fallen over during Covid-19 pandemic. No planned care in Local Plan for this area.
