The point I feel most challenged by are concerns that 'rural diversification' and the development of housing projects will affect bio diversity and community cohesion in rural areas. The provision of shopping, community and leisure facilities in these communities and in neighbouring towns especially around Rochford is constantly narrowing (despite numerous large scale housing projects in recent times). I support small scale projects for necessary provison to low income or first time buyers but fear that most projects will be executive housing.
