Silverdale - part of S50
Please use the box below to make your comments.
I wish to object to the proposed development on part of S50 in Silverdlale for th efollowing reasons
Lack of main sewerage in Silverdale and limit of natural flow to cope withh any more sewerage pressure;
Additional traffic at a difficult location close to the village school.
The village needs affordable housing, not high value housing or holiday accommodation. A recent new development was turned into holiday accommodation and lost to the local housing market.
Amenity value of the location - well used public footpath with open rural views, open pasture land
A key site on the approach to the village - the new development would be clearly visible from a main entry road into the village.
Development in this field begins to set a precedent to extend the village boundary beyond St Johns Road and into the whole of this next field.
The open fields within the village are a key element of the character of the village and have significant historic context.
If development is approved (and I hope it isn't), it should be clear that tourist rental market is excluded and that the development is for affordable housing only.
