The plan is unsound. Infrastructure already fails local needs: flood risk, school and doctors surgery at over capacity & struggle to cope, poor (virtually non existent) bus service, roads not suitable, insufficient parking in village centre. BBC has not consulted with neighbouring authorities (ie: Epping and Chelmsford). Sites mentioned not suitable, Alternative sites (that are better suited have been ignored. There has been no "housing needs" survey.
The only practical solution is to remove sites R25 and R26. Take heed of the BVHA neighbourhood plan which identifies the actual requirement of local residents and proposes better suited alternative sites.
