Please explain your reasons
The site is prone to extensive water run off, which will drain directly down our cul de sac. As some properties are below road level extensive flooding will occur. Also our road is far to narrow to allow 2 way traffic to the developement safety issues must be considered.
Valley drive has now become the main road around Kendal with resultant fast and very heavy traffic flow. To add another 1 or 2 extra juctions would be extremely foolhardy and almost certainly add to the road safety issues. This should not be ignored

Kendal in general has not got the infrastructue to support the extra developments , doctors, hospital, roads, parking,sewage, drainage - need I go on ?
There are already many new houses standing empty, why do we need more ????
It is about time our council took notice of the present population growth problems, isnt that what we Kendailians voted them into office.
To us mere mortals it does seem that every time our views are asked for they are almost always ignored.
Prove to us you are listening and scrap these developments
Do you think that your area needs new or improved community facilities? If so, what sort of facilities and where? Please explain the types of improved and/or new community facilities your community may need in the next 15 years
Please improve all aspects of community for the present population without adding more population to the already saturated town. Kendal needs to live and breath so come on council show us you care
