Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

Representation ID: 20513

Received: 09/03/2020

Respondent: Mrs Ann White

Representation Summary:

There is no safe access to the school on foot from the proposed site.
The drainage system in the village can't cope already with heavy rain without flooding.
Extra houses will mean extra traffic through the village. The trains do not run often enough nor are there enough buses to cope with the extra people.
Just because the school is not full does not mean we need extra houses. Families moving in may not have children of the right age for the school. Also, fewer pupils surely means smaller classes which must be desirable.
