Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 18207

Received: 20/04/2010

Respondent: Mr Dennis Haggerty

Representation Summary:

Strongly support bringing more people to the village to help the social and economic development of the community, provided the supporting infrastructure is improved to reflect the needs of the whole village. Primary concern improvement in public transport, not 'dumping' social housing residents in a community cut off from jobs and entertainment. Should have housing for single and elderly people, to balance the high percentage of family properties that currently dominate the village. Far more provision should be made for the aging population and critically the telephone connectivity should be improved with full fibre optic broadband access for all.
