Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

Section 08 Flood Risk and Green Belt
Section 09 R25 and R26
There doesn't appear to be any clear strategy for the villages including Blackmore, strain on facilities, such as school places and doctors. Very limited bus service and roads and lanes would be stretched and struggle to cope with more traffic. There is no housing need survey to say these sites are most suitable. Sites are liable to flood and new homes will increase flood risk elsewhere in Blackmore.

Change suggested by respondent:

A detailed housing needs survey needs to be undertaken for Blackmore Village and I endorse the objectives of BVHA.
