Representation Summary:

The development at Scraptoft will NOT safeguard public views or landmarks as the prisoner of war camp and nature reserve are to be substantially reduced to have 1200 houses built on to a village!
Having already had significant new buildings gone up in Scraptoft and Thurnby we have already seen what really happens - new houses seen through the windows of the church, trees with TPOs cut down to make way for another house/garage etc, developments eating up the fields surrounding us so there is NO BELIEF that things will be safeguarded in the future.
