Respondent: Mrs Trudy Cannin

Representation Summary:

I am extremely concerned at the amount and proposed amount residential home development that is going on and is likely to take place in Ingatestone. We already have the influx of addditional properties at Trueloves, Mountnessing roundabout, The Crown and land to the rear plus Bell Mead apartments which is already causing parking, road congestion problems plus availability of GP services. How can you possibly approve further devlopments of approximately 200 properties which could result in nearly 1000 more residents. The impact of all this will be disastrous to the village and the life of current residents.

I am extremely concerned at the amount and proposed amount residential home development that is going on and is likely to take place in Ingatestone. We already have the influx of addditional properties at Trueloves, Mountnessing roundabout, The Crown and land to the rear plus Bell Mead apartments which is already causing parking, road congestion problems plus availability of GP services. Residents have to predict at least a week in advance if the are going to be ill. I understand that our local primary schools in Mountnessing and Ingatestone have a one year waiting list as they are over subscribed. How can you possibly approve further devlopments of approximately 200 properties which could result in nearly 1000 more residents. The impact of all this will be disastrous to the village and the life of current residents who chose to live in a village and not a suburb of Brentwood. Apart from this, your council cannot provide the optimum level of services to current residents so how can your service departments provide for even more. Please ensure that these comments are forwarded to those responsible for devising/finalising the current Borough Plan and acknowledge that this has been done. With many thanks.
