Important information:
· This site was originally assessed for strategic planning with a maximum of 50no homes proposed. This application exceeds this number
· Section 106 monies requested for this development amount to £884,361.69. EMH have offered only £123,000. Any more contributions would render this site unviable (see page 38 for details)
· There has been no consideration for the recent 5-year flooding history to the site and surrounding areas by SDDC Planning. This matter was requested not to be taken in to consideration on deciding this application
· There has been no consideration to highway safety and safe access/egress to the site. This was a material consideration by DCC Highways in 2017 and nothing has changed since this time. If anything, the situation with traffic and highway constraints has worsened
As this scheme has been recommended by Planning, it is imperative that if you wish to make any comments, you do so as a matter of urgency.
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT OBJECTIONS WILL ONLY BE COUNTED IF SENT IN INDIVIDUALLY. PETITIONS, REGARDLESS OF NUMBERS WHO SIGN, WILL ONLY BE COUNTED AS ONE OBJECTION.
