Representation Summary:

Strongly object
Our existing facilities, such as roads, sewage systems, and public services, are already operating above capacity, thus not equipped to deal with this.
The village also lacks sufficient street lighting and footpaths and I note that the development would be on a blind corner.
Our village’s charm and character are derived from its tranquil environment and close-knit community. The proposed project threatens to disrupt this harmony by introducing increased traffic, noise pollution, and potential environmental hazards.
Its a "NO" from us!

I am writing to express me and my wives strong objection to the proposed building project in our village, referenced under application number SN0433. As a very concerned residents of Alpington, I believe that our current infrastructure is already over burdened and thus not equipped to support the additional strain that this development would impose.

Our village’s charm and character are derived from its tranquil environment and close-knit community. The proposed project threatens to disrupt this harmony by introducing increased traffic, noise pollution, and potential environmental hazards. Moreover, our existing facilities, such as roads, sewage systems, and public services, are already operating above capacity. The village also lacks sufficient street lighting and footpaths and I note that the development would be on a blind corner. Introducing a new development without first addressing these infrastructure limitations is not only injudicious but also poses a risk to the safety and well-being of all village residents.

The council ought to reconsider the long-term implications of this project and to prioritize the preservation of our village’s unique identity and the quality of life of its inhabitants. We are not alone in our concerns, and I stand with many fellow residents who are prepared to take further action should this project proceed without due consideration for the points raised herein.

Its a "NO" from us!
