Support

Village Housing Options and Settlement Boundaries

Representation ID: 61078

Received: 19/01/2014

Respondent: Mr. Roy Drew

Representation Summary:

Only partial support. Agree that development needs to be carefully phased, but why is the proposed number (150) over 10 times that (14)identified in the local housing needs study? The need can't possibly have increased that much since the study was done. A development of even 50 houses would seem far more than enough for this village. Would the school and the medical practice, not to mention the physical infrastructure, be able to cope?
