Village Housing Options and Settlement Boundaries
Representation ID: 61907
Received: 17/01/2014
Respondent: Prof Donovan Kelly
Representation Summary:
The principle reasons for my objection to Site 1 are:
Road congestion and consequent environmental degradation and hazard. Southam Road is already a bottleneck and to add 200 vehicles will create rush hour gridlock, more noise and higher likelihood of an accident.
-Loss of Rural Character including useful farmland. Views of the church would also be lost, making the church effectively an anomaly in a dormitory housing estate. This whole area has national heritage value.
-Local amenities are already limited or at capacity and the village has no local medical practise.
-The proposed site needs archaeological assessment.
