Respondent: Mr Will Withers
This land has been designated "green belt" for a very good reason. As a people we need to consider what is and what isnt "green".
Building on this land will seriously increase the likelihood and severity of flooding of the River Leam. Already, Cubbington has seen that the drainage system cannot cope and building on land that currently allows natural drainage will exacerbate this problem.
There are plenty of "brown field" sites within our towns and surrounding areas, that are crying out for development.
