GNLP0210

Representation ID: 13960

Received: 14/03/2018

Respondent: Bergh Apton Parish Council

Representation Summary:

* The site is adjacent to a listed church and any development would detract from this historical property.
* The site adjoins a County Wildlife site and protected species are identified in the vicinity.
* Development would detrimentally affect established woodland.
* The local road network is considered unsuitable. The site is situated on a hazardous stretch of road, compounded by being on the route for the Household Waste Recycling Centre and a building yard which when in operation produce significant levels of vehicular movement and large lorries, particularly during long weekend opening hours of the HWRC.
* It is a greenfield site

GNLP0533

Representation ID: 13962

Received: 14/03/2018

Respondent: Bergh Apton Parish Council

Representation Summary:

* Development of this site would lead to continuous development on the east side of The Street and remove the only remaining hedging. The Parish Council considers that this would spoil the street scene.
* No mains drainage available
* The highway adjacent is narrow and evidence suggests there are already parking and speeding issues that any further development would exacerbate.
* This is a greenfield site.
