Local Plan 2015-2030 Preferred Options for Consultation

Representation ID: 1732

Received: 01/10/2013

Respondent: Mrs Gillian Roofe

Representation Summary:

I object to the proposed 1500 houses to be build in and around West Horndon. Not only does that constitute 43% of the total number for the borough. It would also treble the number of houses within West Horndon and therefore change the community with increased traffic in and out of the area.

My other point is the area is green belt and we already are high risk of flooding. Therefore, building on this land makes no sense and will be damaging to existing residents.
