Representation ID: 470
Received: 02/10/2013
Respondent: West Horndon Parish Council
Agent: SJK Planning
Representation Summary:
1. Object to the disproportionate scale of proposals in relation to the size of West Horndon and the proportion of the Borough's housing numbers the village is proposed to accommodate.
2. The proposal is for major development alongside a small community, representing 43% of new homes to be provided in the Borough up to 2030. The Plan suggests West Horndon could give rise to further capacity in the long-term.
3. The scale of development proposed would swamp the existing village, effectively creating a new settlement. There is no explanation as to why West Horndon should accept a disproportionate number of new homes.
