What do you think the overall vision for the site should be?
Our vision for this site is for it to meet the village needs. Affordable housing for our young families and Bungalows for the elderly wishing to downsize.
What approach do you think this brief should take to transport, movement and access into and through the site - including for cyclists and pedestrians?
We live at ... and fully understand the need for new housing. Our main concern is the traffic and having a through road from Milnthorpe road to North road as was indicated at the meeting, we feel that would be a bad idea. It would be used as a cut through.
No through road access other than for cyclists and pedestrians.
Have you any comments or suggestions on aspects of land-use (including housing and employment mix and type), layout and design principles that this brief should seek to promote?
We would suggest Mayfield Ave development as a cul de sac with Bungalows & landscaping, dealing with the water logged areas on this site and the Milnthorpe road development as a Family estate.
Have you any comments or suggestions on community infrastructure and facilities required locally that could potentially be delivered through this brief?
A good quality child play area would be good for the community.
Have you any other comments, including on the Proposals Document?
Please take into account off road parking. Most house holds need space for two cars these days. Parking is already an issue in the village especially through Pear tree park, people are parking on pavements and opposite one another in the evenings causing problems with access and larger vehicles having trouble getting past. Emergency vehicles would not get through, a concern we have raise before.
