Site Proposals document

Representation ID: 14175

Received: 16/03/2018

Respondent: Stephanie Spencer

Representation Summary:

Whilst there is a need for further housing which I would suggest needs to be social more than affordable, this site is accessed via Chapel Street. This a busy and narrow road with both private and industrial vehicles using it on a regular and daily basis. Additional vehicles would only exacerbate an already dangerous situation where cars a parked along this road causing an even further narrowing. There are empty homes including a Care Home which could and should be utilised before further development is considered.
