Representation Summary:
The Local Plan claims to ensure the effective management of natural resources, including water and soil, improve air quality, and minimise waste. However, where I live, the water mains and sewage system constantly leak and have done so for decades. These issues can’t be properly fixed because the village has been beyond capacity for many years. I’ve lived here for almost 21 years, and every time I step outside, I can smell sewage. Instead of addressing these ongoing problems, the plan’s focus on building more homes only worsens the situation, directly contributing to environmental degradation and climate change.
