Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 7917

Received: 13/03/2019

Respondent: Frank Thompson

Representation Summary:

I oppose this development on the grounds that the density of housing would be over 5 times that of the surrounding area. Not only would this place enormous demands on the local infrastructure, but it would change the character of the whole area, and not in a good way. Over the years I have seen many green spaces in this area disappear, replaced by housing developments. It is time to stop, and conserve what we have left. Policy to retain sports ground should be maintained.

I write to demand that 'the 2013 all party policy on the Rugby Ground ( on maintaining the sports ground covenant & not selling the freehold)' be retained.
