Respondent: Mrs Brenda Hill

Representation Summary:

The field is heavy clay and properties around this field already suffer waterlogged gardens due to surface water. After a problem with houses built along the Norwich Road suffering waterlogged gardens even though there were drains in place the same company FW Properties now wants to build another 148. I have no trust or confidence in this development company to do things right. I also suffer a waterlogged garden and the fear is real. A roundabout is not the answer on an already heaving road at peak times. Poringland through bad planning and short insight is a bottleneck and this will force even more cars on the rat runs through villages that are not equipped to take this extra traffic. Brooke is a service village and has filled its building quoter + to force these houses on Brooke would be morally wrong, and the provision for a school is not needed it is a carrot to get these houses built!
