Please add your response below, quoting the main modification reference number: (limit 3000 words)
LAPD MM052 R89
We fully support all the points raised by Allithwait Road Action Group in their objections to
proposed developement on the above land(R89).
The rock head is very near the surface on this land and would be very difficult to drain, soak-aways or holding tanks would not be successful or even possible.The land frequently floods after heavy prolonged rain in the South East corner and runs into Carter Road and Kentsford Road, developing this land would increase the run off considerably and cause problems with neighbouring
properties.
In our view retention of the open area is particularly important to ensure the break in developement between Berry Bank and Kents Bank and avoid "ribbon developement".This is a "Green Field" site and should remain so,there are numerous "Brown Field" sites available which should be used first.
Russell Armer`s proposed housing plan`s have detailed the elevation of the buildings,however we cannot understand how they will be able to maintain the elevation because of the close proximity of the rock head to the suface, it would mean a considerable amount of work with Jack Hammers,the noise would be horrendous for weeks on end.There is the danger of this work altering the water course and diverting run off to neighbouring properties.
We feel that with the points Allithwaite Road Action Groups have made and the ones we have made regarding this land(R89) it should be taken out of the plan.
Mr and Mrs Peter and Nancy Mallinson.
