Respondent: Mrs G FV Sergent

Representation Summary:

This site boundaries an area of natural beauty and eco.ogical importance, building on this sloped site may result in increased flooding-down to Hellington beck and could adversely impact and important ecological site.

I strongly oppose the development of both of these sites on the basis of safety and in the latter the negative ecological impact development on GNLP 2064 would result in.

The local plan map additionally suggests through its shading that land to the east of GNLP 2064 has already been developed. This is not the case, the land is wooded and is not built up.

GNLP 2063 and GNLP64

Access to this site would significantly impact what is already a congested zone in the village and an accident black spot. Customers and patients accessing the post office, shop and doctors surgery park on the street as there is insufficient off road parking to serve these important destinations. The busses serving Rockland and schools stop at the proposed entry points for both of these sites particularly supporting young people and the elderly being able to access transport close to the surgery and shop.
A number of road accidents have happened in this congested zone already resulting in cars crashing into gardens and tress to avoid pedestrians. Access to these two sites is insufficient and would add risk to an already busy and co tested zone.
