LA1.3 Housing Allocations - All Grange-over-Sands sites
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.
I am opposed to the development plans for South Lakeland. I would say a resounding "no" to any green field development. Particularly in Grange over Sands the plan would mean a huge percentage increase in population, on top of the large amount of building already seen over the past few years.
It appears that the Government has made a blanket order for so many new homes in all parts of the country. If this is so then the order should be thrown back.
There are other ways to settle any housing problem... For example, substantially reduce the great number of empty properties, including second homes, by Government legislation, an unpopular but necessary move.
