The amount of houses allocated at up to 90 is too many to achieve proper protection of the ridgeline where the conifer tree screen is incompatible with the local area and the housing density means that the woodland is not wide enough to screen effectively. The conifer screen will itself become an eyesore as they grow to at least 20m high

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.

The plans to substantially expand Magna Park would irretrievably alter the skyline and views from Cotesbach over the Swift Valley.
Our village is only 2 miles from the current site and these massive expansion plans would half that distance bringing immense new buildings even closer to what is supposed to be a peaceful rural area.
Although our village has no street lighting at all, our skyline is already brightly lit up by the spaceships that are the existing Magna Park.
How much more light blight will we have to suffer if these monstrous plans are approved on 23/11/17 by HDC?
