In reference to areas cfs054 ( 17-19 Southview Close ss67lx) & cfs044 ( Eastwood Rd Acacia nurseries ss67ls) of the land availability assessment map, I write to state reasons for the unsuitability of these sites. Both of the sites are greenbelt and greenbelt policy state that the boundaries only be moved in exceptional circumstances. It is very important to preserve greenbelt in the community where possible and look for alternative sites to build on. The sites are also both flood risk areas and neither have any road access to them.
The pre-schools/ schools and doctors are already struggling to cope with the volume of people it needs to accommodate.
The roads in Rayleigh are also very busy and congested and can not cope with any more traffic.
These sites should not be considered as a "preferred choice"
