Development and Site Allocations (DaSA) Local Plan - Options and Preferred Options

Representation ID: 22909

Received: 09/02/2017

Respondent: MRS MARIAN RIGBY

Representation Summary:

This is a serious problem for residents in this area.

We are extremely concerned that we may lose our peace and privacy if dwellings are planned to overlook our bungalow as in previous applications.

However we are mindful of the need for more housing. The type of housing planned would be of utmost importance for existing residents. There is talk of elderly people downsizing to allow larger properties being made available for families so perhaps sheltered housing for the elderly would be appropriate for this site.

There is absolutely no room for additional parking, cars etc.

This is my response to the above application for 22 dwellings. I live at 33 Fryatts Way, bungalow situated at the end of Fryatts Way.

This application is once again (referring to previous applications for 44 & 33 dwellings) a serious problem for residents in this area.

We are extremely concerned that we may lose our peace and privacy if dwellings are planned to overlook our bungalow as in previous applications. My husband is disabled and I am his full time carer.
