Representation ID: 10062

Received: 28/07/2022

Respondent: Great Denham Parish Council

Representation Summary:

The Parish Council discussed the draft Local Plan 2040 which has been made available for consultation at its meeting on Monday 4th July 2022, and wishes to highlight the following areas that it is unhappy with:
Insufficient provision has been made to address the lack of primary and secondary school places to go with the additional housing proposed.

Lastly, the Council asks that the flood plain is maintained and protected; the floods of 2020 demonstrated that flooding poses a real risk to areas of Great Denham, and housing development should not be permitted where flooding or threat of flooding has occurred.
