Respondent: Mrs Karen Watson
I am concerned to note that the planning application is already lodged, ahead of the decision - and that work on Hall Road services appears to have already begun.
I am further concerned that the PA only assesses drainage and other detriments to the site and the new estate, and does not consider increased risk to existing houses. As I have an ancient land drain on my property, which has been known to fill in the past, a further 600 houses sending down water is a frightening prospect. I am not satisfied that "SUDS" will be adequate to meet this risk.
