Objection comments to local plan.
1. The area doesn't support the required local jobs for the quantity of proposed new homes.
2. Loxwood sewer system cannot support additional housing.
3. Houses on the Nursery site have holding tanks which means more larger vehicles coming through the small village which struggles at present. Additional houses will also require holding tanks which will mean more larger vehicles collecting which our roads can't sustain.
4. Deliverability - The nursery site development still not complete and plot near doctors surgery postponed after site clearance. If two small developments can't be completed within a satisfactory time limit how will they cope with a development of 125 house.
5. Flood risk potential - The site map highlighted between the high street and canal is in a floor risk area. Houses at the top of the high street already face issues with home insurance due to the area been categorised as a flood risk. New site proposal is on lower ground, will this cause any increased potential for our area in terms of flood risk - i.e not in the interests of protection the existing houses could be detrimental. And how will new houses get home insurance.
6. New development site opposite period properties, new houses without similar character will be determental to the nature of the small village.
7. 125 additional homes will put the local primary school and doctors surgery under extremely tight constraints and wont be able to support the local area.
8. Limited employment opportunists therefore, increased traffic and number of cars on small country roads - traffic volume and speed is already an issue.
9. 125 new houses have not been fairly distributed between other local villages and no parish consultations took place prior to allocating.
