Representation Summary:

The so called (quote) ..... ''retention of habitat connectivity''.... is not possible if 1200 houses and other buildings are to be built. The huge land area required will destroy the existing habitat. It is not possible to replace the value of the existing herb rich grassland without making changes to the flora which already grows there or adding others which do not grow there naturally (and, maybe, destroying others which do). The proposed plan will cause the destruction of the majority of the natural habitat surrounding Scraptoft and change its semi-rural nature.
