Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 18362

Received: 25/04/2010

Respondent: Mr Barry Barnes

Representation Summary:

This location is protected Green Belt land and should remain so. More large scale development here will create unacceptable increase in traffic, put a massive burden on local amenities. Doctors, dentists, schools etc. Previous promises to improve amenities have proved to be empty promises. There is alternative Brown Belt land beyond Bedloes Corner that could be used, which would also be near a Travellers site which could be legalised and increased in size. Also the loss of sports facilities at Rayleigh Town is unacceptable, due to a lack of sports facilities locally.
