Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 17887

Received: 12/04/2010

Respondent: June Stapleton

Representation Summary:

As a local resident, I agree that the old Mill site would suit a limited housing development, subject to care regarding the flood plain. Too many dwellings would cause traffic problems on Stambridge Road and more particularly Rochford town centre, due to the limited road size/capacity. Increased noise from the proposed airport expansion, might also put off potential buyers. I hope that development of this site would not increase the likelihood of the Coombes Farm land being released. We need our green spaces in Rochford!
