Respondent: Louise Hirst

Representation Summary:

Development would lead to an unacceptable loss of farmland and rural employment, rendering the isolated sites unviable.
These sites aren't sustainable in terms of multi-modal accessibility. None of these sites offer the ability to access local community facilities (schools, doctors surgeries etc) on foot, on bike via pedestrian footpaths, cycle routes or by bus. The only means of access is by car which increases further pressure on the local highway network infrastructure.
Not a location that allow peaceful and integrated co-existence with the local community. It is Historic landfills that may release greenhouse gases and are unsuitable for habitation.
