Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 8422

Received: 14/03/2019

Respondent: Diane Howell

Representation Summary:

Pockets of green belt should not be built on because they can be. This will erode the character of the area. Better to have fewer, larger development sites that can support infrasructure improvements. This site contributes a low number of housing, delivers no infrastructure but decimates the character of one of the few country lanes left in BC. It will set a precendent for development on the Balsall Street boundary. Balsall Street East is already very congested due to school parking; road safety issues as the access road would be on a bend.
