• Integrity and Character of the Village, which is why Green Belt Protection was put in place in the first place.
• Overdevelopment of this village. As I said earlier after the Cala development any further development would be disproportionate and harmful to the balance of the community.
• The damage to Infrastructure and Services, being the schools and utilities, as further development would worsen the existing strain on these essential services.
• Traffic Impact and Road Constraints any further development will lead to an increase in the traffic on already narrow congested roads.
• Ecological and Wildlife Concerns the sites are home to a variety of wildlife species and habitats, which means that it will lead to the destruction of these ecosystems, reducing biodiversity and threatening protected species.
• Environmental Impact: Noise and Air Quality Increased vehicle numbers would significantly deteriorate the air quality and raise noise pollution levels.
• However, I see the real problem is the effect of building on these sites on the water table. We already have this problem, which has resulted in annual floods, in the Severn Valley, due to the water surface runoff from new developments. Surely, we don’t want this in Leek Wootton.
