Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 18175

Received: 16/04/2010

Respondent: Mr Geoffrey Page

Representation Summary:

I object to the proposal for the 500 new dwellings in Hullbridge. No attempt has been made in the last 30+ years to develop the services/infrastructure in Hullbridge. I expect that the locations were not selected by local experts, but by a consultancy firm based on a catchment model. If Rochford council wish the residents to support this venture, demonstrate your commitment by implementing the planned road developments, improve the public transport system and give commitments that adequate policing and other services will be provided to meet the requirements. With that in place, you may find Hullbridge residents more approachable.
