Full text:

It is very clear from all the information available that planning for another 125 houses in Loxwood is a ridiculous suggestion. There are a huge number of developments happening in and around Loxwood and Cranleigh and with the infrastructure in its current state this is surely unsustainable and will cause huge problems with utilities, traffic, parking, congestion etc.

Cranleigh is the nearest village/shopping area to Loxwood and it is already overcrowded and there are at least 4 developments of a large number of houses currently in progress.

It seems that little thought has been given to the fact that there is a large number of developments in close proximity which will undoubtedly have a negative impact on the existing infrastructure and local communities.

I make plea that sensible consideration is given before any more developments are approved just to tick a box.
