Representation Summary:

BBC has not demonstrated that there are no brownfield sites that are available which should take priority over green belt land. There are other more suitable locations e.g. urban extension to Brentwood. The proposed sites are liable to flood and building on this land will also increase the flood risk. The school will not be able to accommodate more children. The doctors surgery can barely cope with the existing population.

BBC has not demonstrated that there are no brownfield sites that are available which should take priority over green belt land off Red Rose Lane. There are other more suitable locations e.g. urban extension to Brentwood - so the locations in Blackmore do not promote sustainable development. The proposed sites are liable to flood and building on this land will also increase the flood risk within a village that can be prone to flooding. The school will not be able to accommodate more children. The doctors surgery can barely cope with the existing population. We can wait four weeks to see a doctor at present.
