I wish to object to the new draft CDC Local plan which proposes to allocate a further 125 houses in Loxwood.

This number will add to the problems of the Loxwood Sewage infrastructure and risk of surface water flooding, tragic for some unlucky people.
The developers are driving plans to suit themselves, very few houses being built for older people who wish to stay in the village or downsize.
Also, no public transport ( only 1 bus a day) for those that need it ( elderly, children) who depend on volunteers or parents, even for dental appointments, hospitals etc.

I wish to object to the unfairness of the plan. No effort has been made to share the burden across the 3 parishes. I do understand the need for new housing but only at a sustainable level.

What I really object to is the lack of protecting the environment.
Loxwood was rich with wildlife when we first arrived 24 years ago but is sadly disappearing. The last few developments in Loxwood have threatened bats, glowworms and reptiles. Also the barn owl who I saw regularly flying over a wildflower meadow (next to Loxwood Surgery and still awaiting development because the developers want to add extra houses)
