Legally compliant? No
Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? No
There has been no discussions with the village regarding proposed development.
Should find out what needs improving before adding houses to the village.
Plenty of places elsewhere that need new housing.
Property in the village is not affordable but that's what makes it a lovely place to live.
Adding more houses has a negative effect on local/government services (e.g. schools, doctors, hospitals, teachers etc).
Would more building work be needed at the school to accommodate growth.
The village has small narrow roads not equipped for builders/machinery.
There is an issue with parking around the village especially during school term.
Site that need removing from the LDP as follows: R26 and R25.
Managing Growth and disproportionate allocation. Village isn't large enough to accommodate the new houses. The school is at capacity, there is an issue with parking around the village especially when busy during school term time and when events are on in the village. Growing on Green Belt now is this allowed? Brings the landscape down.
We haven't been spoken to on the building of land in the village. i.e. if we want to build on our own property we have to apply? Same should happen vice versa (consultancy work) speaking to the local villagers and find out what needs improving before adding more housing into a village that is already struggling with capacity of residents/visitors.
There are plenty of places that are screaming for new housing. I am looking to buy a property but the village isn't affordable and that's what makes it lovely place to live!
Ruining the area adding more housing has a knock on effect to all local/government services! x amount of house x amount of schools needed, doctors, hospitals, teachers etc. Things you hear we struggle with already and the village doesn't have any these apart from school and therefore would more building work be needed?
The village has small narrow roads not equipped for builders/machinery and that ilk.
Proposed modifications:
Site that need removing from the LDP as follows: R26 and R25.
