Sound? Yes

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

In principal I support the development of housing-we need more housing to meet demand. However I do have concerns regarding the scale of this development and the fact that the infrastructure might not be upgraded at the same pace as housing is created. Lutterworth does need investment into its infrastructure, the towns roads are at capacity at many time of the day and other services such as the GP surgery are only just fit for current purpose. Any development that takes place in and around Lutterworth must be supported by an equal investment into services.
