Received: 20/02/2018

Respondent: Forncett Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Forncett Parish Council has decided not to make comments on individual sites, but would wish to make the following points (applicable to all sites):
We do not rule out modest future development but this should be in keeping with our village situation and surroundings and on a scale which is commensurate with the limited facilities available. Of major concern is that many of our roads are single track with passing places: further extensive (or even moderate) development requiring access on these roads would be problematic.

There seems to be no opportunity to make a general comment on all sites within the Parish of Forncett (St Peter, including Forncett End, and St Mary) so this comment is applicable to all sites.
Forncett Parish Council has decided not to make comments on individual sites, but would wish to make the following points:
As pointed out elsewhere, we feel our settlements are 'borderline' Service Villages with no doctor, post office, general store etc. and mediocre transport links. We do not rule out modest future development but this should be in keeping with our village situation and surroundings and on a scale which is commensurate with the limited facilities available. Of major concern is that many of our roads are single track with passing places - which struggle to cope with the level of traffic at the moment. Further extensive (or even moderate) development requiring access on these roads would be problematic.
