Legally compliant? Not specified

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

Some of my objections are as stated below.

The infrastructure for any new homes will not be put in place. The pumping station at Watery Lane cannot cope now although its been up and running for tens of years.

If there is heavy rain it comes back up in the Hullbridge Road. If there's a drier summer than usual we go on a hose pipe ban.

The job situation is not and probably will not improve for the proposed increase in people. In this part of the Rochford area, there is little to do for another potential 1000 people.

The roads cannot cope now in rush hours in the surrounding areas so it would mean more tarmac and concrete and will still be back at square one.

The environment would go down hill - more gangs of youths and trouble in the local area and generally the quality of our life would diminish.

The Councillors, Inspectors and Government do not live here. They should bear that in mind now and in the future.
