Village Housing Options and Settlement Boundaries
Representation ID: 60561

Respondent: Mr Mark Beaglehole
The consultation document originally identified 5 sites as suitable for development in the Hatton Station area, all of which have been assessed and in 3 cases rejected due to high landscape impact, flooding concerns and highways access concerns. ALL sites including 2 now designated as "preferred" have strong evidence of water/drainage issues, access/infrastructure and environmental considerations - and fail spectacularly to deliver any benefits which support development or provide any evidence of increased sustainability.
