New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021

Representation ID: 40112

Received: 04/08/2021

Respondent: T Johnston

Representation Summary:

When will Rochford Council see that they are killing the environment that we live in. Nature, green spaces and generally the nice place we used to live and call home. With climate change high on the agenda what about flooding in the future. Rayleigh has changed significantly since I moved here 30 years ago with housing estate after housing estate being built in and around the surrounding areas. The roads are often gridlocked, not a good environment to bring up children. Also who are buying all these new houses? Where are all the people coming from? Will Rochford council not be happy until we are living in a concrete jungle with very few fields and green spaces left to enjoy and for nature to survive.
