REASONS TO OJBECT

Greenbelt loss The greenbelt was created to prevent urban sprawl by keeping green buffers between settlements. It is the lungs of London

Threat to the natural environmentThe destruction of our green areas means a loss of natural habitats and is a threat to wild life

Loss of Farmland Means a loss of local produce

Climate Crisis How will we ever meet our carbon reduction commitments if we concrete over our green fields?

Pollution Created by traffic from the 1030 new homes

Infrastructure Pressure on roads, schools, trains & medical services

Out of date Housing demand has actually fallen according to government data

These are just some of the reasons to object to the Plan.
