Notes on the map that has been provided
I strongly object to the proposed development of this land for residential use as follows as the Site is not suitable The proposed development has a significant gradient and Surface water is already a problem

Access
One proposed access point from Oxenholme Road via Hayclose Crescent is already prone to heavy congestion. Attempts to halt commuter parking on Oxenholme Road have only resulted in train travellers parking further into the Kendal Parks Estate. This, coupled with narrow roads, creates a dangerous environment for both motorists and pedestrians. Furthermore, emergency vehicle access on some occasions would be extremely restricted.

Privacy
The steep slope of the proposed development site would have a huge impact on our privacy. New homes would directly overlook ours and into my childrens bedroom!!!
Open Space
A major part of Kendal’s appeal is its ‘green space’ status. Further development of green field options would result in extended urbanisation to the detriment of the town. Brown field sites should be given further, more immediate consideration
