Respondent: Yelverton Parish Council

We do not agree with the principle of building on greenfield sites on the edges of small villages due to impacts on sustainability, climate change, biodiversity, and the local community.
Access - roads into Alpington are narrow single lanes with passing places. Construction vehicles would cause considerable disruption. Site location is not suitable for access.
New development would result in significant increase in vehicle journeys into and out of village, due to lack of local services.
Concerns about impact of development on surface water management and sewerage infrastructure.
Development in smaller villages sis better served by smaller windfall sites, preferably on brownfield sites or repurposed buildings.
