Q1: Yes - These proposals are too complex for the layman to digest. My concern is the preservation of the village I have lived in for 47 years. Building on Green Belt will meet with most opposition.

Q2: Yes

Q3: Yes - A large development with suitable infrastructure and good rail links to London and major towns give greater opportunity to those living on such a development.

Q4: Dunton - provided this site would meet all the requirement of a sustainable community, also least opposition to change would be experienced by the council.

Q5: Not in my backyard would be some of the opposition.

Q6: Any further development in villages will put extra pressure on transport - car use, schools, sewage and spoil the attraction of some very pretty villages. We are in danger of losing much of this "Green and Pleasant Land" in the name of progress.

Q7: Yes make most sense to reduce pollution and take into account the completion of cross link.

Q8: Yes - Brentwood has become to a greater extent fast food, coffee shops, restaurants and charity shops, a far cry from the 1950s. Parking becomes a bigger problem. A new town would take some of the pressure off.
