New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021

Received: 06/09/2021

Respondent: Valerie Haycock

Representation Summary:

have been reading and looking at the plans I collected from the hullbridge community centre meeting, and also reading other articles and info online. I just do not understand how these plans can be thought of, to build on all those sites surrounding our village. Yes village. But it will not be if this building is done it will become a town. It will have a severe impact on the community and education and medical facilities. Also local transport, and other facilities. We all know we need more housing, but I agreee with the option suggested as east of rochford, (3c) as there has to be consideration given to the climate change and whatever plans, national and local that will have to be adhered to. We already have flooding problems in this area, and it seems that much work was needed when the recent area of development was carried out. So I say leave Hullbridge alone.

Why is it that we never see plans for more simple housing solutions, like renovating old buildings , including houses, small hotels etc. We only ever see plans of people and probably companies, who want to rip up the countryside and spoil things.

Also all this stuff we have to read and what we have to do to object is made complicated and hard to understand, and therefore many people won’t bother to do anything at all, which is probably what you hope for.
