Draft Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 690

Received: 05/02/2017

Respondent: Mr Roger Cook

Representation Summary:

Whilst the actual fabric of the centre of Knowle will be protected as far as development is concerned the character of the village will be destroyed by the proposed completely inappropriate development of the two proposed sites for housing. The infrastructure is already overloaded and the vehicles associated with 1,050 homes will cause massive issues.

There is available space for housing around Catherine de Barnes where the main business development is due to take place around HS2 and the airport expansion - the housing will then be directly next to where the jobs will be.
