Local Plan 2015-2030 Preferred Options for Consultation
Representation ID: 1508
Received: 01/10/2013
Respondent: John Grahame
Representation Summary:
In Core Policies CP2c it states that development should not take place on green belt land that is used for food product or at risk of flooding. The green belt land that is north of the factory estate has all of these so I cannot see why it has been chosen for housing. West Horndon has been flooded a number of times in the past and building on this land can only increase the possibility of flooding in the future. Any flood relief scheme would increase the possibility of flooding south of the railway towards Bulphan.
