Representation Summary:

The ldp indicates that three car parks in brentwood town centre are to be developed for housing. I see no suggestion that replacement car parks are being developed.
the additional housing in both the town centre and environs will increase, not decrease, the need for town centre car parks. I see no indication that local roads will be developed to accommodate the increased traffic caused by 7000 more homes (& the families occupying them). This seems to be a rather less than holistic approach to planning.
