Reference MM072U - Amend Development Plan Boundary to incorporate site RN193 in Ulverston
Dear Sir/Madam ,
I object strongly to the incorporation of this site in any future development. To build houses on these two fields would:
a) Substantially increase the risk of flood to other areas of Ulverston already struggling to cope with drainage
b) Ruin Gill Banks, a rare area of greenspace in Ulverston (SLDC currently state that this is at a premium in the centre of ULverston)
c) Introduce noise, air and light pollution into what is currently a recreational area used by large numbers of people in the town.
d) Ruin wildlife habitat - currently bats, tawny owls and a wide variety of other wildlife use this unique area and their habitat would be destroyed.
e) Introduce a substantial volume of traffic down narrow streets with a dangerous turning right by the busy health centre. At present this lane manages to cope with few properties but people have already experienced problems with existing building traffic. Any volume of traffic will cross important and busy routes and Union Lane, Mowings Lane, Stanley Street, Garden Terrace and Old Hall Road will all experience much higher volume of traffic and significant safety risks as a result.
Regards
Ben Brady
