As a local resident of Loxwood I am alarmed and surprised that a small village with little public transport and a limited amount of employment has been selected to receive a further 125 properties in addition to the 60 new properties that are currently under construction. I do not feel that this village can sustain this number of new houses, given the lack of capacity of the foul and surface water having personally encountered foul water lifting the manholes on my property when we have a downpour of rain. It will affect the landscape value of this small rural hamlet and property should not be just sited where there is a green field.

Whilst I appreciate there is a national property need, I do think this new plan is sound and the numbers seem to be completely imbalanced with other similar villages.
