Respondent: Mrs Sheila Wilson

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

The development will have to go through an existing estate and will be a danger to the residents there. There will be an impact on traffic movements onto Church Road and Church Meadow is opposite the Village Hall which has it own traffic movement problems.
Further development will mean more traffic, noise and pollution as well as destroying agricultural land.
The lanes round here are narrow in places and it is not uncommon to come face to face with heavy agricultural machinery as well as HGV’s.
Joining the A146 can be challenging due to volume of traffic.

Change suggested by respondent:

No further development should be allowed in Alpington, as the lanes cannot cope with further traffic, plus environmental problems.
The boundary should not be extended further and no more agricultural land should be taken out of production.
Has any thought be given to the sewerage system with all the proposed housing?
