Concern regarding possible future expansion in the number of plots.
Concerns regarding the impact of the use on local property prices
As this is a nearly 6 acre site and outline planning is for five plots, I am concerned that the number of plots will increase either legally or illegally. This could result in the same issues that the council covering the Dale Farm site faced with evictions. Experience has shown us that the Essex evictions has resulted in huge costs for local tax payers and a large amount of local resentment and poor publicity for the area. An experience I do not wish to see repeated in our local area.
As my property is very close to the site I also have concerns about the impact a site would have on the value of my property.
