I would like to raise my objection of B1 Hatton. For the purpose of housing,for between 4,500 - 8,000 houses.
I realise we need housing,preferably affordable for those not earning massive wage. Ie farm workers, Forrester etc.
The site your proposing as "preferred". Is actually someone's livelihood as a working dairy farm. I presume people will always need dairy products? This farm apart from being well managed, is also necessary to balance all the concreted, land in the area, plus motorways. Un built on fields act as wonderful receptors for rain water,snow etc, saving a lot of water damage by flooding.
As this is part of the ancient forest of Arden and we are told constantly of the good trees do to the environment why not revert some of it back???
Also from 1938 a bill was passed for green belt areas.This I know yourselves will know about, to STOP cities and towns becoming the concrete jungle they are going to be.
As I realise you are well aware other sites,more sensible in area have been mooted,without the need for the massive reconstruction of roads.
You could argue we have the station.From what I can gather the station is to capacity with trains,and cannot be enlarged enough to be viable.
One other point, there is a desperate need for schools, has no one thought having extend Hatton Park and planning double the. houses again,why not reduce amount of houses,construct a junior and senior school instead?? I would have said a much better investment for everyone.
