Representation Summary:

I think this new development is totally unnecessary. You will be taking more greenbelt land. If this continues eventually there will be no green spaces left. It states in the local plan "research and development activities" this is a smoke screen. Once this site is passed, as with all developers they go back for retrospective planning BY THEN IT'S TOO LATE!!!! You need to think about the impact this extremely large site will have locally. More traffic which is bad enough already. Natural habitat for the many species who are living in this area.
