BLAST has been assured that allotment provision will be made for any new development over 100 houses, yet the proposals make no provision for this. There has been a sharp increase in allotment use and this needs to be supported. Allotments provide for wildlife, rainwater and ground water collection and are important community facilities.

Whilst the proposals do not impact directly on any allotments, access to allotments is close and could affect wildlife (eg Crested Newts at Binswood Allotments and the hedgerows at Black Lane).

Environmental surveys should be carried out for also sites to assess the impact and leglity of the proposals.
