New, Revised and Small Sites

Representation ID: 17195

Received: 19/11/2018

Respondent: Mr Robert Graver

Representation Summary:

This development would overwhelm the village turning green agricultural land into an industrial site. Swainsthorpe is currently designated for small scale "infill" development only. There would be noise pollution from heavy machinery, engine testing and additional traffic and light pollution from 24/7 security lighting. The type and volume of addition traffic onto an already busy A140 causing traffic chaos. Irreversible detrimental impact on the local environment plus risk encouraging similar sites nearby. No new local jobs, simply relocation from elsewhere. Loss of existing footpath. Overall, a totally unsuitable proposal that will harm the environment and spoil the village of Swainsthorpe.
