DEVELOPMENT OF BLOOD TRANSFUSION CENTRE BY FAIRVIEW HOMES. With regards to the above development, of which we are in favour of, but would like to raise a few concerns: 1) Keep any housing development in scale with the land available, build using similar materials to match existing homes to maintain character and standard of dwellings in Crescent Drive. 2) Frontline properties to be kept to same height of existing houses in Crescent Drive. (there is scope for higher accommodation towards the back of the site where the land drops away) 3) Keep parking restrictions in place, to allow free flowing traffic for Brentwood Community Hospital. Provide enough parking spaces on development (1 space for 1 bed property and 2 for anything above. The road is already used as a cut through, causing stationery traffic during school drop off times. 4) Access to new development through existing entrance adjacent to Brentwood Community Hospital.
5) Maintain the roadside current hedging to the boundary of the land, and replace any trees or shrubs that maybe affected with the development. 6) Include sufficient green spaces within development ( 25sqm per home ).
