Representation ID: 6906

Received: 16/11/2017

Respondent: Mr Graham Logan

Legally compliant? No

Sound? Yes

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

The massive Magna Park plans do pose a greater risk to flooding and sustainable drainage in the rural area in and around the Swift Valley between Cotesbach, Magna Park & Lutterworth.

Lutterworth already is prone to flooding.

As a resident of Cotesbach, I am gravely concerned about the many risks associated with a substantial expansion of Magna Park and further buildings erected between my village and Lutterworth.

These include:-

Flooding
Unsustainable drainage on very heavy clay soil
Increased traffic & noise
Increased air pollution especially from greater traffic volumes
More light pollution at night from the 'spaceships' at Magna Park.
