I am shocked to think that consideration is being made with regard to the BEX09/BX116 Spindlewood Drive development proposal due to the following reasons
a) The area is under sea level which would heighten an already substantial flooding risk.
b) Rother council has a duty of care, not only to its residents who would bear the brunt to the chaos such a whimsical proposal would bring in terms of the severe added congestion - vehicles, noise, damage to the environment, air pollution which as you are aware has substantial links to dementia. Meads Road leading into Maple Walk is already single file for the majority of its length. The Council cannot turn a blind eye by so drastically countering the amount of traffic which would ensue. The numerous species of wildlife including Tawny Owls, Nightingales and Great Crested Newt would lose their habitat which would be a devastating loss for them plus numerous nature lovers who love the idyllic area.
c) The essence and heart of the local area would be stripped of its charm which has brought people to the area for decades.

A far better solution would be to further develop Site BX124 to increase the housing numbers from the proposed 450, to incorporate more houses. There are already train stations, good road links, job prospects, schools, doctor's surgeries in situ. It may also be possible any affordable housing plans to be located at Northeye Site BX101.
