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.
The DPD is not effective in that the document is not deliverable, flexible or capable of being monitored.
The DPD is not consistent with national policy.
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.
The proposed denisty of housing would have a substantial effect on both thelook and feel of the village. The proposed 30% increase in area of the Village Development boundary is a huge increase when there are neither the services nor amenities to cope with the extra housing.
At present there are only a couple of applicants waiting for affordable housing on the parish lists and so the number of local occupancy/affordable houses should be limited to not more than 10
We need to protect the local landscape, such as the drumlins, becasue of their intrinsic beauty as part of the Lake District scenery.
3.1 If your representation is seeking a change, do you consider it necessary to participate in the oral part of the examination?
NO, I do not wish to participate at the oral examination
