Support of the development on Woodside Farm.
* the plan for the new houses is very attractive and new homes are desperately needed in this area;
* it is wrong that people, who are happily property owners, are trying to deny other people the same right;
* The homes need to go somewhere and I would most definitely rather have a beautiful new housing estate than a traveller site on my doorstep;
* People will complain no matter where the houses are going to be built;
* the outskirts of town is the right place for them as this will present less of a traffic problem than in some of the other suggested places;
* New schools are needed around here to accommodate the extra pupils (both St Margarets/Briar Hill and Myton School are already too big) but the new houses would be a nice addition to this lovely area of the town.
I would just like to write in support of the development on Woodside Farm. Personally I think the plan for the new houses is very attractive and new homes are desperately needed in this area. I think it is wrong that people, who are happily property owners, are trying to deny other people the same right. The homes need to go somewhere and I would most definitely rather have a beautiful new housing estate than a traveller site on my doorstep. People will complain no matter where the houses are going to be built, and I think that on the outskirts of town is the right place for them as this will present less of a traffic problem than in some of the other suggested places. I believe we need new schools round here to accommodate the extra pupils (both St Margarets/Briar Hill and Myton School are already too big) but I think the new houses would be a nice addition to this lovely area of the town.
