Fairfield Parish Council has today submitted its response to proposals by Campbell Buchanan to build 180 houses and a two form entry school on land east of Hitchin Road.
CB/16/01455 – The Parish Council objects to the proposals on the following grounds.
- The proposals represent inappropriate and un-sustainable greenbelt development, outside of the current settlement envelope
- The application is premature with respect to the emerging Neighbourhood Plan
- Insufficient information has been provided to analyse the extent of highway impacts and any mitigation required
- Impact upon highway safety, particularly at the Eliot Way roundabout
- Inconsistency between plans submitted by the applicant and those within the supporting reports
- Waste / effluent management systems in the vicinity are inadequate and the proposals will intensify the issues
- Flood risk / development within
CB/16/01454 The Parish Council has concerns with the appropriateness of the proposed school location and it’s scale, however support the provision of this new community facility.
