The proposals include too many houses and faciltiies. 12300 is not fully justified and relies on achieveing a GVA of 2.4% but in so doing igniores quality of life considerations and fails to consider what level opf development can reasonably be sustained. A figure of 6000 houses is more appropriate. Building 12300 houses on greenfield sites in a direct contradiction to the Council's vision.

At the scale of development prooposed social, environmental and economic benefits cannot all be delivered at the same time. Increased traffic congestion and associated air quality issues are amongst the reasons why such a high level of growth cannot be accommodated.
