Village Clusters Housing Allocations Plan - Alternative Sites & Focused Changes (Reg. 18)

QUESTION 2a: Do you agree with the allocation of SN0433, Land south of Wheel Road, Alpingtonfor at least 12 dwellings on an area of 1.0ha? Please explain your response.

Representation ID: 3562

Received: 01/02/2024

Respondent: Yelverton Parish Council

Representation Summary:

The Parish Council strongly objects to further development in this village cluster. Two sites have already been allocated totalling 50 houses and a further 12+ is 62+ too many given the lack of infrastructure. We question the Children's Services report that approves these additional 12+ houses as they have not commented on the approved 50 and the school is already at capacity. All roads in and out of Alpington are single track at some point and additional traffic will cause even greater congestion.
