Q1: Yes.
Q2: No - The A127 is always busy and there are frequent roadworks. The A12 flows much better. The A127 is prone to flooding, which causes further delays.
Q3: Yes - The areas 020 and 021 are brownfield industrial sites, which are already in the 5 year land supply. If 400-500 houses are built here, that will change West Horndon by about 80% increase in housing. 037A, B and C, 038A and B and 126 are Green Belt. This would be inappropriate development and would cause environmental harm. These fields are frequently water logged and therefore prone to flooding.
Q4: Dunton Garden Suburb is preferred. It has a great deal of potential for growth, as although it is in our parish, it is outside the village. Robust buffer zones should be established however.
Q5: Yes - Brentwood should use the available sites for significant development in these areas. As previously stated, I believe there is more capacity on the A12 rather than the A127.
Q6: Brownfield sites should be developed, greenfield should not be developed, and should be regarded as sacrosanct.
Q7: Yes - Transport by bus from railway stations must be established.
Q8: Yes.
Q9: Yes - We have a park in West Horndon. The potential development of the Dunton Harden Suburb should include more open spaces for us, as DSG will impact us.

Yes.
Q1: Yes.
Q2: No - A127 is already over capacity and residential properties run right up to it. A12 should be given greater consideration. No consideration has been given to the flood risk around A127.
Q3: Yes - Brownfield sites should always be used over Green Belt. West Horndon is a small village and we wish it to stay this way. Therefore preference for site 200 over everything else.
Q4: Site 200 - albeit not enough consideration has been given to A12 corridor and this should be re-addressed.

Yes - Retail in Brentwood is awful. Far too many eating places but very few quality shops.
Q1: Yes.
Q2: Yes - I agree, but infrastructure is very weak (i.e. drainage) in Rectory Chase at the moment. Flooding can be a problem. Waiting time at the doctors is also high and the school is full.
Q3: Yes - 185 Rectory Chase. Development, of the type mentioned, would create chronic traffic problems. Access is very restricted. This site could only really cope with one or two houses.
Q4: A127. Although there are congestion problems here, the A12 also suffers severe congestion problems.
Q5: No.
Q6: Develop greenfield sites on the edge of villages, which would then require additional infrastructure.
Q7: Yes.
Q8: Yes - Retail in Brentwood is awful. Far too many eating places but very few quality shops.

Q1: Yes.
Q2: Yes - The road and rail infrastructure not able to take any more.
Q3: Yes - Site 200 Dunton Garden Suburb would be my choice giving the buffer of land to maintain West Horndon as a village as we would like. This is why we moved here not to be a town!
Q4: Again site 200 due to new infrastructure being laid down as a new site and not making do with already crowded roads around and in West Horndon.
Q5: Yes - The A12 should have the ability to meet and help on this any suitable site should also be looked at rather than all in just one location which overpopulates.
Q6: Brownfield site should always be put ahead of Green Belt. This was done originally to protect our countryside and what live in it. I think this has been forgotten.
Q7: Yes - We do not want the existing site changed to housing but agree that any working /employment needs to be on public transport links.
Q8: Yes - We need our own shops but are happy with existing we need to make sure that our local shops stay "alive" and build these up primary.

We do feel that West Horndon is treated like the poor side of Brentwood and you would rather spoil our area than any other more lucrative points on the A12 side of the Borough.

Brentwood Council should reduce business rates and parking charges to encourage more people to shop in Brentwood instead of 'out of town supermarkets'.
Q1: Yes - The three areas have different requirements, so it seems logical to split them.
Q2: No - The A127 corridor is already at or over capacity in rush hours. If there is more building in this area, where will all the traffic go?
Q3: Yes - Change of use of the industrial site to housing is logical as it is a brownfield site. However, West Horndon villagers value their way of life and do not want to see a too great enlargement of the village.
Q4: A12 corridor. The A127 would need an extra lane to cater for additional traffic as a result of more housing. There may be room for more building but there is a big penalty in infrastructure.
Q5: Yes - There is more capacity in this area without too much penalty in future traffic requirements.
Q6: The Green Belt has been carefully protected in the past. Brownfield sites should be used where available.
Q7: Yes - Employment opportunities are necessary but they must be accessible by road or public transport.
Q8: Yes - Brentwood Council should reduce business rates and parking charges to encourage more people to shop in Brentwood instead of 'out of town supermarkets'.
Q9: Yes - West Horndon would benefit greatly from the provision of a footbridge over the A127 to enable the easier use of Thorndon Park.

Consideration must be given to maintain town centre.
Q1: Yes - It makes sense to spread the housing growth across the Borough.
Q2: No - The A127 is already overloaded as is the rail network Fenchurch Street to Southend. We value our open spaces as much as the people in the north of the borough.
Q3: Yes - This area cannot take this development either on brownfield sites or Green Belt land. Consider the risk of flooding.
Q4: To develop adjacent to this village (or over develop the industrial site) would destroy this village. It seems that Dunton Garden village is the ideal solution.
Q5: Yes - We feel that the A12 corridor has the most potential for growth.
Q6: Develop (within reason) brownfield sites.
Q7: Yes - But only if the strategic highway network can cope? Does the A127 fall into this category?
Q8: Yes - Consideration must be given to maintain town centre.

Parking is an issue in Brentwood. Out of town shopping centres are preferred by shoppers where parking is free, i.e. Pipps Hill, Mayflower, Chelmer village - all out of the borough. Brentwood should aim to compete.
Q1: Yes.
Q2: Yes.

Q4: Dunton Garden village A127. West Horndon A127 and rail links both relatively underdeveloped.
Q5: No - No! This area is already heavily developed. Green Belt fringes are essential for open space and the well being of all residents in this area. Green Belt here has beauty and is environmentally essential, for wildlife and residents.
