Concerned about increases in traffic and concerned about anti-social behaviour including speeding vehicles. Believe there is sufficient social housing in the area. Would not like to see Lavenham Road joined with Kelly Road.

We object to the proposed building of houses on this area. The area needs a suitable place for children to play safely, residents to walk their dogs and an area where the local community can socialise.
This area if utilised properly could be the hub of this area, bringing all residents together. These days people complain that their children need to get out more; this area is an ideal area for this to happen if it is kept as an open green space, and as previously stated this would be an ideal area for the outside Gym and Play Area.

The Green is an area for the local community. Children play football there and there are many community and sporting events. Concerned about anti-social behaviour if the green is taken away. It was reported in the press that the Council were trying to improve the area for youngsters, why take all this away? Concern expressed about existing and potential problems of parked cars and road safety in the Lavenham Road and Kelly Road area. The Green is lovely to look at and enjoy and should be preserved.

The roads in Lavenham Road are not wide enough to cater for more cars, the dust carts can't even access roads when cars are parked on it. Also there aren't enough green/natural areas in the area so why do you need to take more away from the community.
I am totally against the idea especially because another plan of yours was refused therefore you have had to find alternative land. Having a plan refused doesn't fill me with much confidence and we already have enough problems in this area. My neighbours have both had their cars vandalised, a neighbour has been shoot at when he was merely walking his dog, a van has been set on fire, the camera near the gate doesn't work and I feel intimidated when I walk or drive through Kelly Road so take alternative routes. The authorities don't seem to be able to cope with the area as it is now so attracting (via more houses and things to do) and adding more people to the green (via more houses and things to do) will only make things worse for us all and uncontrollable for the authorises.
I have lived in my property for nearly two years and all I see and hear is favouritism given to residence in Kelly Road, things seem very one sided and Lavenham Road rarely gets a look in.
I'm not aware of any problems that have been caused by any resident in Lavenham Road or Mitre Way.

The green is a strong local asset which allows residents to meet regularly. The development of the green will have a detrimental effect on house values, lead to loss of light to existing property, exacerbate existing parking, traffic flow and road safety issues, and lead to loss of wildlife habitat. Concern that the consultation was not adequately advertised.

Wish to object to the proposed allocation as the Green is used by local children to play football and cricket, children feel safer playing there than out of sight in the park, the Green is used by the local church for fun days and concerned about the increase in traffic on the narrow road.

The Green is currently a nice open space used by youngsters and for fetes and football. Do not wish to be overlooked and surrounded by more houses. The open space is lovely and well kept, not a derelict building site.

I am writing to object to the proposed plans for building on the green between Lavenham and Kelly Road. My fiancée and I are new residents to Lavenham Road as we bought our house in December and we are extremely upset to hear that there are plans to build on the green.
I am writing to object to the proposed plans for building on the green between Lavenham and Kelly Road. My fiancée and I are new residents to Lavenham Road as we bought our house in December and we are extremely upset to hear that there are plans to build on the green. One of the reasons we purchased the house was because we felt it was a quiet and family friendly area however we are concerned that this will change with the new building plans. It will increase the amount of traffic in the area, not only during construction but also once the new residents have moved in which we feel will not only be a safety risk to children and family pets but will also cause unnecessary congestion. We are also concerned that the increase of buildings and the decrease of green areas will cause properties to lose value, this is a particular concern to us as we have purchased our house so recently. We feel that building more houses and flats on the green will have huge negative impact on the community and landscape on and around Lavenham and Kelly Road and this is why we strongly object to the plans.
The council's plans to build on the green are a great worry for us. We hope that you take this into consideration and we would be more then happy to further explain our objections and concerns.

I cannot believe that this may still be passed as I feel that not only will added traffic going through this quiet road be dangerous but especially in winter when Lavenham Road hill is already a hazard in icy conditions with cars etc unable to get up the hill as hardly ever gritted and my property at the bottom of the hill is just another accident waiting to happen AGAIN!
When we bought our first house in Milden Road which was a new build, we were told that the green would never be built on.
I am a resident living in Milden Road, Ipswich and understand that the building development on the green between Kelly road /Lavenham Road may still be given the go ahead. I did submit an objection form giving my reasons why i am against this during phase 1.

So happy have we been here ( 34 yrs) that we bought our second house in Milden rd as such a lovely peaceful area and now there seems to be a possibility that this may be spoiled.

Object to development of this land as it is an open area used for community events, dog walking, and by children playing. There is already parking congestion and this will add additional pressure. Understood the land could only be used for building a school.

It would become a slum area - houses/flats on top of each other; it would be cramming houses/flats into such a small area which draws a fine line between planning and cramming;
noise pollution; we are very quiet whereas with an extension of houses, we would loose our peace and tranquility;
overlooking existing properties, therefore invading their privacy and lost of their natural light;
there are plenty of boarded up houses/factories/empty offices along Hadleigh Road - why are they not being used for housing?
