It would be helpful if you could state your proposed change to the DPD and the reasons why you think it is necessary.
DENSITY OF HOUSING:
This proposal has not taken local opinion into consideration and will contribute to destroying the Kendal area, reducing income from tourism.
Increasing the size of K Village has led to a decline in visitors.
Excessive increase in number of houses from 68 to 100, village not consulted on 100, objected to 68 houses.
30 bungalows and affordable housing required for local people with provision for green areas.
INADEQUATE PROVISION OF SEWERAGE AND DRAINAGE:
Sewerage can just about cope now; more houses will create more problems. Smell exists in summer, which resulted in water authority dealing with issue 2 years ago. Could become a public health issue.
The fields flood, which will create a drainage problem.
TRAFFIC AND AIR POLLUTION:
No work or doctors in village; will contribute to increase in traffic, which will create a dangerous junction.
