Totally inappropriate, too many houses, will stretch village infrastructure & services. Increase traffic!

Being only 2 houses away and backing onto this proposed development the sheer number of houses equating to numbers of cars/journeys is frightening . I have lived here since 2002 and in 2013 had to start involving the police regarding dangerous and obstructive parking on Narcot Lane. It has been so dangerous we have been dialling 101 (as instructed by the police) to help, but now they are too busy. Not only the speed of traffic, frequency, parking between houses on the verge ( over the dropped curbs), MPV’s esp ( from local businesses, visitors , people leaving cars for car sharing, workmen , and residents whose own parking has been displaced) make this stretch of Narcot lane extremely dangerous, not only for residents trying to join the road ( I am usually driving blind onto the road) but horses, cyclists and pedestrians are putting their lives at risk using the road, pavements (poorly maintained near 16-20) and crossing the road. Traffic approaching from St Peter cannot see cars joining from the Youth club onwards (due to the long curve) let alone the obstructive parking. The parking does need to be sorted out , but this road can’t cope with what traffic we have let alone add min 61 cars entering /exiting the site multiple times a day. Accidents have been reported , but not near misses.... my near misses are numerous as I can’t be seen by incoming traffic. I know other residents have the same experience. The development might get rid of the dangerous obstructive parking near the current site entrance, but it will definitely pass the buck and move the obstructive parking ( and increase accident risk) along the length of Narcot Lane, into 3 Households, Back Lane, the Deanway and Narcot Road. No room to comment on Greenbelt, negative effect on local services etc ....

There are not enough resources in this village as it is. Traffic pollution at the roundabout is bad already and doctors appointments are really impossible to get.

This housing development will not fit in with the area and is not to the standard the British Government is working to for new Housing. i.e It is not environmentally friendly. For instance why is there so many chimneys in a new build. It looks like an industrial estate. Where are the solar panels/heat pumps etc. Where is the infrastructure, no extra schools no extra Doctors, because ours will not be able to cope. Please rethink this development.

CSG is already congested, the doctors can’t cope, and there are plenty of areas that may benefit. These are villages that are being decimated, wildlife destroyed and already overburdened infrastructure at breaking point. It’s a NO from me.

I am totally opposed to this developement for many serious reasons. 1xThis area is designated green belt! 2x Will cause far too much traffic on Narcot Lane and on to the little roundabout at three households. 3xThe schools will not be adequate. 4xFootpaths lost for public and cycling dog walking etc. 5xOur over stretched surgery WILL NOT cope,already longg waits for appointments. 6xThe village status will be lost,with this scheme making so many more inhabitants. 7xIs the begining of the end for the "safety net" of green belt land that seems so easily turned over to developers!!!!!!

“Affordable housing” which essentially translates to: conning the district council into thinking we care about then community and residents. Should read: opportunity to milk the cash cow. NO TO NARCOT LANE DEVELOPMENT!

•The GP surgery will be mobbed. •Traffic will rise and jams will become the norm. •parking is already an issue and will only worsen. NO TO NARCOT LANE DEVELOPMENT!

No building on green belt. This must be opposed. The land is designated green belt and not for a developer to fatten their own hog. The increased traffic will also add to the level of danger to our children. NO TO NARCOT LANE DEVELOPMENT!

The local infrastructure is already creaking under the pressure. Roads are failing and facilities such as the local surgery and schools are already struggling to cope. There are many more appropriate spaces to build houses, that would not impact so severely on the ecology. To further develop in this area would be a big mistake!

CstG is already crowded. Year upon year the property developers are taking over, with no thought to the social structure which makes our village great. They make their money and leave us with the additional traffic, crowded roads with footpaths turned into car parks. Enough is enough. No more disguising making money under the veil of "affordable housing" like they're doing a good deed. Too many times I've seen children and adults suddenly appearing between parked cars to cross the road.

Development on green belt land should not be permitted. This will put too much pressure on local amenities such as schools and doctors’ surgeries.
