I wish to object to the proposed plan of an additional 125 houses in Loxwood for the following reasons:-

1. Residents put forward their Neighbourhood Plan, which was approved in 2014, in accordance with the Government's recommendations. A lot of time and effort went into this procedure which now seems a complete waste of time if this is being over-ruled to accommodate more housing in a small village.
2. There have been sewage problems on the new Loxwood Green estate so more housing would just exacerbate this problem. Parts of the village are already prone to flooding.
3. Has adequate research been carried out that additional housing is required in Loxwood as opposed to similar villages in the area which have not been earmarked for such an increased development i.e. Wisborough Green, Kirdford, & Plaistow. Could it be the developers are controlling the planning of our villages?
4. Loxwood doesn't have adequate public transport and therefore there will be much more traffic to contend with in the area. During the rush hour the volume of traffic through the centre of the village has increased tremendously, and indeed also during the day.
5. The local school is already at more than full capacity. Surely the next generation should be our priority.
6. The surgery is at present a very good service but this could deteriorate considerably with the amount of people this proposed housing would generate.
