Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 19369

Received: 29/04/2010

Respondent: Mrs Karen Watson

Representation Summary:

I am concerned to note that the planning application is already in ahead of the decision: also that infrastructure work already appears to have begun on Hall Road.
The plans submitted only consider flood risk and other detriment relative to the site and new houses: no account is taken of increased risk to existing housing. As I have an old land drain running
towards my house, which has been known to fill in the past, a further 600 properties sending water my way is a frightening prospect. I am not satisfied that "SUDS" will be adequate to meet this risk.
