Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

This random development is prime agricultural land to the East of the M1. There is a distinct lack of commitment to the infrastructure needs of the locality to support such an expansion. Amongst a long list such items as schools, medical centre, recreational facilities, pollution in the town centre, a North/South By-pass and the retention of the hugely respected cottage hospital should ALL be conditions of the planning approval. Therefore planners should consider the housing proposal as a whole, not in piecemeal lots of say 40 to 70 houses with little or no commitment to individual infrastructure improvement.
