Please use the drop down menu to indicate which of the following sites you are commenting on. Please use a separate form for each site.
Silverdale - part of S50
Please use the box below to make your comments.
*There is no mains sewerage system in Silverdale, how will a new housing estate affect this issue?
* if Silverdale is part of the ANOB why would planning be allowed on green belt land which is used for farming.
* The traffic levels would be significantly increased how would this be supported? The local school is exceeding close to this proposed development, what of the safety of the schoolchildren?
* There is little to no local employment, people would have to commute again causing traffic problems.
* The public transport systems are POOR. The local bus service does not run sufficiently to connect with the trains.
* There is a public right of way across this particular area, enjoyed by many, the views would be obliterated for the residents and walkers.
* The destruction of wildlife habitat.
* THis would be an extension of the outer boundary/perimeter of the village and there are already buildings sites for sale within the village area.
* There is a need for low cost housing HOWEVER an estate of 20+ houses, HOW many would be low cost to LOCAL people?
* Possible further future extension into the field towards Bottoms Lane and The Green!
* The roads leading out of the village are already narrow with vehicle passing places there NO PAVEMENTS for walking as it is, how much more dangerous will it become for walkers,cyclists and drivers.
* Will the emergency services be under even more pressure, ambulances from Lancaster/Kendal?
