020 and 021 (industrial estate in West Horndon) which are already 5 year plan could be developed in positive way for West Horndon if the site was developed at a lower density. Although the surrounding infrastructure will be inadequate.

037A, B and C, 038A and B and 126 are all Green belt sites surrounding West Horndon. Development of these will change the existing West Horndon village beyond all recognition and put significant strain on the infrastructure. This is an inappropriate development which represent significant harm to the local environment and residents which will not be out weighted by the need for housing within the borough. There is also no reference to the major flood problems that would occur if development took place on any of these areas.
