I OBJECT to this development, it is OUTSIDE the Village settlement boundary and is sited within 200 metres from the Broads Authority administrative area and within the 3000-meter buffer-zone that protects the fringes of the SAC, SPA, SSSI, Ramsar and National Nature Reserve designations.
Drainage/Sewage in the village inadequate.
Poor visibility and extra traffic would make it dangerous. Village life being eroded by increasing traffic.
Road from Rockland St Mary to Kirby Bedon unsuitable for increased traffic as too narrow in places.
Road from Rockland to Bixley prone to flooding/hazardous.
Development not in keeping with the village must be REJECTED!
I strongly OBJECT to this development because it is OUTSIDE the Village settlement boundary and is sited within 200 metres from the Broads Authority administrative area and within the 3000-meter buffer-zone that protects the fringes of the SAC, SPA, SSSI, Ramsar and National Nature Reserve designations.
Drainage/Sewage in the village is up to capacity which would threaten The Staithe.
The site access at the top of New Inn Hill has poor visibility and with the speed and volume of traffic at that point would make it very dangerous. The Street is already under pressure from increasing traffic volumes so any additional housing would add to this problem.
The road from Rockland St Mary to Kirby Bedon is unsuitable for increased traffic movements.
Areas of the road in Rockland and to Kirby Bedon are also prone to flooding.
This proposed development is not in keeping with the village, will not enhance, but will blight its character and should be REJECTED!
