Representation ID: 21033

Received: 15/03/2020

Respondent: Mr Louis Eastwood

Representation Summary:

The proposed development of 50-60 houses on this site raises significant practical, policy & process issues:
• Failures in process & application of policy – including inconsistencies, no change control process to various proposals and incorrect data.
• Disingenuous exclusion of Old School Houses in plan.
• No overall assessment of Lingwood’s ability to sustain 60+ houses, regardless of site (school capacity, traffic capacity etc.) – linked to the nonchalant housing increase on site.
• Post Office Rd Safety – plans to mitigate not substantiated and will include loss of mature trees.
• Loss of valuable intrinsic landscape value.
