Representation Summary:

It is shortsighted to be endlessly building houses with no long term plan of how we can ensure that we have enough fields to farm. The countryside and wildlife is being destroyed by our endless demand for more of everything. It does not support the need to reduce carbon emissions and save the planet. It is a joke for Shortstown to be classed as a key service centre, there are a couple of small shops and fish & chip shop!
