Preferred Site Allocations 2018

Representation ID: 19696

Received: 08/03/2018

Respondent: West Horndon Parish Council

Representation Summary:

The Plan identified 10 sites at the proposed Industrial Estate development and 30 at the Dunton Garden Village (DGV) site. WHPC objects to these sites because:
a)Travellers themselves have stated that they do not like to have their sites close to large housing areas.
b)Developers don't want to build houses close to the sites as it can be harder to sell properties, which in turn, may slow the development process down on the Industrial Estate.
c)Existing house prices could be affected causing problems for the developments and extending the timeframe.
d)There is no historical link to the area for travellers.
