I am writing to formally register my objection to Brentwoods Strategic Growth Options Consultation, due to the negative impact I believe it will have on the surrounding communities, wildlife, green belt areas and travel routes.

Some of my questions and concerns are as follows:
1. Why is greenbelt land now being considered for declassification in and around the Brentwood & Basildon area?
2. Isn't Green Belt Land protected to stop developments and urban sprawl?
3. What, if any, consideration has been given to the wildlife that will be impacted with such a large scale development on greenbelt land?
3. With such a large scale proposal why hasn't the local communities been properly consulted and informed?
4. Why is it seen that the A127 has a better scope for improvements and expansion than the A12 when nothing has been done to tackle the current congestion level for existing traffic and basics such as straightening out the Fortune of War roundabout as this has been deemed far too expensive for so many years? Widening of the A127 will only consume more Green Belt Land.
5. Why does Brentwood Council appear to favour the majority of its developments at its most extreme of borders affecting towns other than its own?
6. Why is the deadline for this consultation so short when it will affect so many?
