Understand requirements but very disappointed with overall communication as well as why the sites have been chosen. Impact of a site not made clear, leading to concern and upset.
Alarmed by number of sites in Bishops Tachbrook area - a small rural village with limited services. Size of sites also alarming, with unclear reasons why.
Some sites close to M40 (almost on hard shoulder!). Noise unbearable and pollution unacceptable for people who already have poor health. Unlikely to lead to integration.
Village has one school with high competition for entry and therefore at capacity. Proposed site would result in undue strain especially given propensity for extra educational needs means adverse effect on overall education.
Village surgery only part time and struggles; additional residents place further strain and detriment to village life; unfair to all parties.
Sites on busy fast roads with no footways and poor pedestrian/public transport access. Not conducive to good site provision.
Sheer number has upset residents and concerns not assuaged. Adds to negative reaction.
