Please attach my comments to all four sites as my view are the same for all. GNLP0090,0521, 2017, 0215
I am supporting planning officers decisions to deem these sites unreasonable on the grounds of the following:
These sites are in a small village.
They will ruin the landscape and have a negative impact on the local wellbeing and quality of life. 2 of these sites 2017 and 0215 will lead to the removal of hedges which are protected by the ancient hedgerows legislation this is because the roads are not wide enough. Our village has already got enough new houses the council has a five year supply so more houses are not needed. Strumpshaw does not have enough facilities to support more people . No local shop and very minimal bus service people coming here will have to have cars and have enough on our road now.
Building these houses in our village is inconsistent with the local authority sustainability plans and national law to become carbon neutral by 2050 . To summarise this is a small village and we love our wildlife
