Representation Summary:
It makes no difference that the proposal comes from SMEs. The proposed developer has confirmed verbally during the consultation process that the development will take up to 10 years regardless. The development will not be entirely different to that rejected at appeal in 2021. 750 homes is less than 1250 homes but will still be 750 homes, a blot on previously agricultural land that will be lost forever. The strains on the transport system will also be significant with the addition of those homes and a huge secondary school and primary school.
