Received: 18/03/2010

Respondent: Margaret Smith

Representation Summary:

Having been flooded out of my property for several months in 2007 as a result of inadequate drainage amongst other reasons in Cubbington Village I fail to understand the reasoning of the proposal to build even more houses to add to the burden. We are still awaiting answers to this problem so before anything else is considered, resolve the flooding problem.

We also have to contend with much heavier traffic which now seems to have rerouted down Windmill Hill and through Offchurch.

Solve one problem before you create another one.

I strongly object to the proposed link of new houses between Lillington and Cubbington at Glebe Farm.
