The Local Plan is unsound in that it has not provided the evidence to demonstrate that this large strategic site is viable and deliverable. Comprehensive delivery of the ew Academy alongside the new housing is essential in view of the rationale for the site's selection. Further concerns relate to accessibility; the effectiveness of proposed infrastructure mitigation measures and unacceptable impacts of proposed densities on layout and design having regard to the character of the area.
Questions the data in the accessibility study, especially in relation to accessibly to public transport and GP surgeries
Says mitigation in respect of transport and health are minimal.
Concern over proposed densities and design don't reflected what's in the KDBH Neighbourhood plan.
Needs to be lower density.
Please find attached my responses to the Local Plan consultation. All three documents address the issue of the soundness of the Plan.
