I have read the guidance notes
Paragraph No.
0.0 Whole Document
1.1 Do you consider that the South Lakeland District Council Land Allocations DPD is legally compliant?
Yes
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.
It would be helpful if you could state your proposed change to the DPD and the reasons why you think it is necessary.
Like a vast number of South Lakeland residents I am very much opposed to this proposal in principle.
Whilst there is no doubt that local affordable housing is needed, this can be catered for within existing local and national planning policy.
I do not believe there is any need for this vast number of new housing, the majority of which will not be 'affordable'. It will spoil the character and nature of South Lakeland start it's decline into yet another urban sprawl.
