1.1 Do you consider that the South Lakeland District Council Land Allocations DPD is legally compliant?
No
1.2 If NO please identify which test of legal compliance your representation relates to by selecting the relevant option(s) below and completing section 1.3.
The processes of community involvement in developing the DPD are not in general accordance of the Statement of Community Involvement (SCI)
The DPD has not been prepared in accordance with the Town & County Planning Regulations 2004 (as amended)

1.3 Please give details of the change(s) you consider necessary to make the South Lakeland District Council Land Allocations DPD legally compliant, having regard to the test you have identified at question 1.2 above.
It would be helpful if you could state your proposed change to the DPD and the reasons why you think it is necessary.
1) Town's absorption of village: Development on land at Oxenholme Road, Kendal would link the town to Oxenholme village. This is contrary to government policy;
2) Detrimental to tourism: the development would create an unpleasant view for UK and foreign tourists travelling to the Lake District by rail. This triangle of open land was subject to an appeal process some years age. The Inquiry found that openess should be maintained to preserve the character of the area.
3) Justification: increasing the housing stock in this area has not been justified. The need for expansion has not been proven. Disregard for local occupants has been evident.
2.1 Do you consider that the South Lakeland District Council Land Allocations DPD is sound?
No
2.2 If NO please identify which test of soundness your representation relates to by selecting the relevant option(s) below and completing section 2.3.
The DPD is not justified in that it is not founded on a robust and credible evidence base and/or is not considered the most appropriate strategy when considered against the reasonable alternatives.
2.3 Please give details of the change(s) you consider necessary to make the South Lakeland District Council Land Allocations DPD sound, having regard to the test you have identified at question 2.2 above.

Land at Oxenholme Road, Kendal should not be developed. Openness in this location is vital to maintain the character of the area. This is particularly important for tourism. The area has been subject to development applications in the past. Inspectors from outside the area have upheld this status.

NO, I do not wish to participate at the oral examination
