Alternative Sites Consultation

Do you support or object to the development of Glebe Farm, Cubbington?

Representation ID: 43722

Received: 18/03/2010

Respondent: Cubbington Parish Council

Representation Summary:

The proposed development will require significant infrastructure improvements thereby changing the character of the local area. Traffic congestion is already a problem, local services will be stretched to accommodate the increased population. The loss of farmland and natural drainage will increase the severity / frequency of flooding in the village (an ongoing problem), this cannot be inflicted on the existing community. Developers will not pay for off-site infrastructure as it will reduce the profitability of the overall scheme with local ratepayers footing the bill ultimately. Existing residents have a right to expect that their quality of life will be protected.
