Representation Summary:

This area of Scraptoft has already had more of its fair share of development recently, I thought with the completion of Goodridge development we would have fulfilled our quota of housing now it is proposed to build 1200 houses. This plan came to the table at a very late stage and involves basically building on most of the green wedge here including a nature reserve. By building on the golf course Scraptoft will be losing yet another facility. Also the road infrastructure would require major modification and it is very hard to see how this can be done.
