Representation Summary:

This proposed development is opposed by virtually all local residents who have had an additional 1200 home and also continuous warehousing developments. The addition of a further 500 houses will finally destroy the rural nature of Kempston Rural Parish. This proposal will mean a loss of yet more agricultural land, destroying the character of the area and will mean that there is a continuous sprawl of housing and warehousing from Kempston Town to Wootton contrary to the Council's own policies on coalescence and the NPPF s174.
