Silverdale - part of S50

I have numerous objections to this proposal; Access for emergency vehicles. Increased traffic/congestion at the junction with Emesgate Lane - particularly at school times. Sewerage and rainwater runoff issues- Silverdale has no mains sewerage system, so it would require a treatment plant, which must generate some noise for residents in the area. Flooding has been an issue in the cemetery area in the past, which would only be exacerbated by development in the field, possibly escalating to flooding issues in the Townsfield area. The ANOB Special Qualities Report of Nov 2016 makes references to the importance of open areas, visual permeability, open green spaces etc, in relation to the settlement. There is a public footpath through the field and numerous sightings of wildlife. Past experience has shown there is no market for low cost housing in the area, plus poor transport links and a lack of local employment. Village boundary “creep” via incremental development.
