I would like to comment on the building of house in allocation 4 west of dickens Heath. The local infrastructure, schools, doctors etc are struggling with the current demands. The roads /parking can not cope with additional cars, and at peak times the roads are already congested. The building will damage The local environment merging dickens Heath with Shirley, tidbury green, withal so there will distinction. There will Be no community green space taking away the rural character of the area. I believe the wildlife of the area should be protected. Recent developments have already increased the size of dickens Heath way beyond what was originally planned.

As I border the proposed development I'm personLy concerned about building noise & disruption, weekend working all over a lengthy period of time.
I'm concerned about size, scope of the development and type of housing that will be created, plus the proximity of housing and the potential loss of privacy and being overlooked to the point of being overbearing. Will the housing be in keeping with size design of the current local community.
This development will change my local area from a rural area to a more urban area this will effect the value of my own house.

I would question if other sites should be given increased priory over this development and if the council has truly researched other non developed areas in the borough. Considering a genuinely new development rather than further extending dickens Heath.
