Representation Summary:
Blackmore is a remote village with poor road connections and a long way from towns/railway stations. Bus service is poor and not suitable for commuting. Car travel is essential to get anywhere if you reside in Blackmore, so more houses means more car/pollution/congestion. Which is contrary to BBC strategic objectives and the government aims for reducing unnecessary journeys. Also losing 2 large fields to houses means loss of wildlife habitat, which contain badgers, foxes, voles, hedgehogs. It will also exacerbate the existing flood problems of the village.
