Site Proposals document

Representation ID: 14425

Received: 18/03/2018

Respondent: Su Waldron

Representation Summary:

I object to the proposal because :
1. it will detrimentally impact on the landscape of the Tiffey valley
2. It will exacerbate flood risk to properties in Barford (site lies in the flood plain)
3. It will interrupt the continuity of the valley wildlife corridor.
4. There are already safety issues with adjacent road junctions onto to B1108 - more traffic won't help.
5. The proposal is contrary to adopted strategies (protection for the landscape and biodiversity of river valleys; no building on floodplains).
6. The site is cut off by the B1108 from village amenities (village hall, school)
