I am writing to formally object to the proposed piecemeal developments in the village of Medstead, South East England

To Whom It May Concern,

I am writing to formally object to the proposed piecemeal developments in the village of Medstead, South East England. This objection is based on several critical factors that underscore the need for a comprehensive and sustainable approach to development in our community.

Proposed Residential Development Outside Settlement Policy Boundaries
Proposed Development Impact: Traffic Infrastructure Concerns
Settlement formats such as villages in South East England hold significant heritage value
Prioritising new settlements and town extensions over significant extensions to villages promotes long-term sustainability by planning for future growth in a strategic and proactive manner
Proposed Development Impact: Environmental Degradation Concerns – Conversion of Natural Land to Residential Use
The continuous expansion of the village raises significant safety concerns due to the lack of proper pedestrian infrastructure
Proposed Development Impact: Noise Pollution
The absence of a full Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) during a period of significant population increase reasonably leads to the conclusion that the current EDHC planning application process appears to be unfit for ensuring sustainable development
It appears that the Four Marks & Medstead ward is a victim of a fatal error in decision-making
Continuous Engagement in Disengagement: A Failure of EHDC to Ensure Public Participation
