New, Revised and Small Sites

Representation ID: 17419

Received: 26/11/2018

Respondent: Hainford Parish Council

Representation Summary:

This site is outside the development plan and is totally disproportionate in size for an "other" village. The surrounding area of Chapel Road and Dumbs Lane have repeated flooding problems with unsolved drainage issues.
The Council doubts whether the existing sewerage system would be able to cope. Local roads are very narrow with no footpaths leading to the school.
Hainford has minimal facilities other than a school and an infrequent bus service. New developments will only increase traffic on the narrow lanes of Hainford as residents access employment or shopping.
