Representation Summary:

The village will struggle to sustain the houses proposed - the sewerage system is terrible (well known) and electricity/water systems also have issues. The school will not have the capacity to teach the numbers involved and has had issues recently. Decisions are driven by a closed approach by planners to the residents voices in the consultation process. Wildlife including bats exist on the site. Redrawing the village envelope to the beautiful southern flank of the village is a crime against community our heritage. Importantly as green belt land its against NPPF policy in that exceptional circumstances have not been proven.
