New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021

Representation ID: 43861

Received: 20/09/2021

Respondent: Sheila Hobson

Representation Summary:

COL7 & COL20 are two sites being made residential, surely Rayleigh has had enough development in the few square miles around it, couldn't the housing I know the Gov wants be on outskirts, possibly as a new village development, with its own infrastructure i.e. doctors, schools etc.

Mill Hall is a great venue for learning and leisure, and so nice to have a cafe for social use on site. Rayleigh seems to be traffic locked most of the time. We are encouraged to walk, but where without fumes, unless you drive to venue which defeats purpose. Please don't turn my lovely Rayleigh into a concrete nightmare with a real parking problem and no green spaces
