I am horrified by the development proposal plan BEX9/BEX116. This would be completely unsatisfactory with a blatant disregard for the environment and the health and wellbeing of the local community and expanding area.

Housing targets are likely to be met by existing development plans in the area, already at an advanced stage of development which possibly have the capacity for further properties.

There is already a considerable amount of congestion from Cooden Sea Road into Meads Road on into Maple Walk which is very cluttered with single file for most of the route.

How would residents be recompensed for further damage to an already poor road surface? Has the issue of unadopted roads been addressed?

I also feel that Rother District council are failing to acknowledge the huge impact that the increased traffic demands would have on the wellbeing of the local residents, wildlife, environment and community at large.

My husband and I moved into our home in November, searches failed to pick up on the planning proposals, indeed we would not have moved here if the Council had been clear and frank regarding their proposals.

I am hoping that sense will prevail and the lack of infrastructure and the terrible damage this proposal would to the community and its residents is inconceivable.
