In respect of the above plan I am writing my objections to it. It seems that only yesterday I took part in a 10 year plan consultation process that was supposed to be the way forward. What a waste of time and energy.

As I and neighbours have been ignored by the planning committee previously and our objections have proved to be correct, I have little faith in the consultation process. It appears to be a paper exercise and another 'that box is ticked'.

I object in general to the proposals that impact on the villages and parishes, as if built, they will become towns. My main objection is to the planned sites at 076 and 077 as well as 075B. The objections range from the infrastructure, to primary school, doctors surgery, extra traffic, congestion, parking, road safety, local facilities, air and noise pollution, vandalism and the loss of community spirit where residents look out for each other to the loss of green belt land. I exercise by using Red Rose Lane as part of a circuitous route as I and other residents run around the village, dog walk and walk. The impact of this number houses on this community will be detrimental to the current residents.

The only winners in this plan are the developers and residents will have to pickup the cost of sustaining the other houses after they have taken their profits and run.

I know this will not be read but hope it will add another 1 to the number of those who oppose the development plan.

Thank you
