New Proposed Housing Project at the rear of Our Property
With regard to the proposed housing development which you are considering building at the rear of our back garden, I wish to register a very bad disagreement to it.
I feel that consideration should be given to the fact that we have a very poor bus service to this area. They run about every hour to hour and a half. Not everybody has cars.
Only one road in and but which is chaos at times because only one side of the road is in use as people use the other side for parking cars. We do not have sufficient schools and doctors surgeries for a big influx of people to the neighbourhood. The hospital foe this area is quite a long way away and the wait for ambulances is too long!!
As you know there are flood plaines here in the village. I dread to think what will happen if you put more houses here. There are land fill sites here, will you build on these and possibly cause sink holes!!
Also, I am concerned that you may be demolishing our houses to form a park area!! There are an awful lot of elderly people in this village what is to become of them (me included).
