Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 21515

Received: 28/04/2010

Respondent: Casey Edwards

Representation Summary:

I am putting in writing my objection to the proposed new developements on our Green Belt around Brays Lane. Increased housing is not an idea i think is managable in this area. The already extremely busy Ashingdon Road would not be able to cope with added traffic, causing concern for all of our safety especially the hundreds of children who use it on a daily basis for school access. The schools in the area - how would they cope. The doctors and dentists, our ameneties and the already bursting pipe supply lines.

Not to mention we live in a beautiful green, peaceful area. More houses on our Green Belt is not an idea i approve of. I dont want the area we live in ruined, the people who live directly on the roads in question, what happens to their way of life. They bought their houses with the understanding they were living by 'Protected Green Belt?' Is it only protected until someone offers enough money?

The Ashingdon/Rochford area cannot and should not be prepared to house, school, doctor, dentist, etc etc more people than is sensible and that is so not right for the area. Above all safety on roads, added congestion, added pressure of amenities etc, it cant be a good thing.

I strongly object to any developements in the beautiful area we currently live in. Please find somewhere else that is less populated and where there is sufficient space for new buildings and new schools etc to cope with it.
