The CDC did not consult the LPC on revised housing numbers and the allocation of 220 houses plus a further 91 houses on already allocated sites is not sustainable in rural Loxwood for the following reasons:
- we don't have the transport infrastructure; the sewerage system is already at capacity; our local PO office has recently closed and we have no shops; the school is not big enough to support the number of houses proposed; this is a rural community and the development will put our wildlife at risk and destroy ancient woodllands and affect our bridalways and footpaths.

For the reasons listed about the plan does not adhere to the CDCs environmental, economic and social ojbectives in terms of infrastructure and environmental requirements. The CDC did not consult with the Loxwood Parish Council on revised housing numbers and ignored the Neigbourhood plan submitted by the LPC in 2018 and the revised Neighbourhood plan in 2020 hasn't been able to progress due ot water neutrality issues. The local plan contradicts the Localism Act of 2011 and needs to take into account the government legislation around the Wildlife and Countryside Act1981 and other legislation for conservation of species and habitat. All these controventions go to show how the this plan totally inappropriate for our village. Our voices are being sytematically ignored by CDC. Loxwood is a rural village and the plan will negatively impact the residents and community and the wildlife that surrounds it.
