Revised Development Strategy

Representation ID: 54463

Received: 29/07/2013

Respondent: Mr Adrian Litvinoff

Representation Summary:

Generally I am pleased to see an increase in use of brownfield land for housing. This should be extended by utilising the land next to Morrisons formerly intended for offices, and the Chandos Street car-park development for housing.
This will allow a reduction in numbers of houses at Whitnash East, an area of restraint. In particular I should like to see greater protection for the Local Nature Reserve and the up-stream length of Whitnash Brook. As a resident of 15 years I know the Nature Reserve is already depleted in bird species and the proposed development will damage it even more.
