The potential impacts of flood risk and pollution to adjacent land cannot be mitigated. The surrounding topography makes surface water disposal in a controlled manner an extreme challenge and in reality, unsustainable.
Add to this the impact of additional loading placed on the existing public sewer system already under stress demonstrated by the need for additional attenuation facilities having to be put in place to accommodate recent developments.
Add into the mix: increased traffic congestion, access and highway safety issues; Additional pressure on schools, health centres and other key infrastructure & the further loss of an important social amenity & further damage to the area’s character, wildlife, and environment.
