1. The proposed location of this development is not effective and completely unsuitable
2. INFRASTRUCTURE:-
I) access to H53 is proposed along Barcheston Drive within the existing Hatton Park estate. This access route is totally unsuitable both for the construction traffic during the years of building and also for the additional traffic of 50-100 cars which would come with the new development. This would create a very real health and safety risk to all residents and especially to the children using the existing playground adjacent to the proposed entry to the site
ii) Access to the site would be very steep and hardly feasible. It is only meters from an existing village hall and playground (the only playground on the estate) which does not make it in any shape or form a viable entry point. Children currently play freely there and can't be put at danger nor can they be deprived of their only play area space on the estate
iii) The Birmingham Road is a major road and is already very congested throughout the day especially at peak times. The additional construction and residential traffic resulting from this proposal could not be absorbed in the current road network without creating major traffic disruptions
iv) There is no school, medical centre, supermarket or other facilities on Hatton Park which will simply overload existing infrastructure if more houses are now constructed in this space
3. I have not been presented with any evidence justifying the "special circumstances" of encroaching onto the green belt on Brownley Green Lane. Have all other brown field sites really already been used up?
4. H53 is a highly visible site impacting a large number of surrounding houses. this development would have a massive impact during construction (noise, unsightly) and after construction (traffic, congested infrastructure) and would negatively impact both the environment and also the overall value of the investments which existing residents have made
