This site should not be developed without first making improvements to flood controls in the area
A major storm drain runs under the Blood Bank and connects a storm chamber in the woods with a main drain under Crescent Drive. This pipe also removes rain water from the Blood bank via a number of manholes.
Regular maintenance is not carried out and when the pipe blocks houses in Worrin Road suffer flood damage. This has happened a number of times since I have lived here.
Developing this site without improvement to the flood controls will further endanger my property. There is no provision in the plan for flood control improvements either to this site or the adjacent woodland.
