New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021

Representation ID: 41143

Received: 17/08/2021

Respondent: Leanne Dalby

Representation Summary:

SITE ASSESSMENT PROFORMA: CFS061
In relation to the ‘spatial options consultation’, I would like to request you go back to government to politely tell them where they can place their housing targets!
Not sure if you have heard about the IPCC report but WE ARE IN A CLIMATE EMERGENCY, humanity would be grateful if you would start taking action towards that instead, as it is a much bigger priority than a new local plan!
We may need our greenbelt and agricultural land to grow crops if food supplies become affected, it is madness to consider covering them in concrete! Our roads are constantly gridlocked through infrastructure neglect and surely must be at dangerous pollution levels already. Not to mention the fact that a lot of the district is expected to be under water by 2050!
In light of the above, here are my reasons for objecting to this site:

Green Belt Harm
1
Landscape Impact
2
Impact on Local Habitats
2
Impact on safeguarded minerals
2
Impact on Agricultural Land
1
