Representation Summary:

I have concerns with water management. The Capstone area once had 5 ponds in and around Capstone Road & Sharsted Road. These ponds functioned to contain the excess water in this area. Since these ponds have gone (with the exception of that incorporated into the lake at Capstone Park) water gathers with any precipitation flooding these roads rendering them impassable. When changes have been made to the lie of the land at Gibraltar Farm my land has suffered water logging & despite noting this, no-one has taken it into account. I don't believe flooding has been given sufficient consideration.
