Representation Summary:

We object to this policy as it fails to recognise the ability to accomodate signficant development South of Rayleigh at Eastwood Nurseries. Land is available in this location which can support housing and the necessary infrastructure including a school. This area is closer to existing urban centres than other sites detailed and has strong links with nieghbouring districts where a large proportion of the population commute to for work. Cycle links are already established with employment areas. Green links can be developed with this site and neighbouring Castle Point and Cherry Orchard Jubilee Park open spaces.
