CFS053

As a resident of Nelson Road for 17 years we are deeply concerned as are many others in this area regarding the Council's promotion green belt and buffer zone land to the rear of our bungalow. The drainage system has failed tp prevent flooding on a few occasions here, and as our rear garden is only about 30 feet in depth with some sort of culvert behind our back fence which never gets cleared of weeds we dread to think what will happen when bad rain occurs. There is also concern regarding traffic access to an already congested area.

On top of this it will obviously affect our prices when trying to sell our property which we bought for the views which will be completely lost.

We consider there are so many other areas in Rayleigh which would not impact on peoples homes.
