Regulation 18 draft Local Plan

Representation ID: 5918

Received: 07/01/2024

Respondent: Ms Nicolette Morphy

Representation Summary:

Quarry Farm is a Candidate local wildlife site, full of protected species, kingfishers and great crested newts. Creation of a country park is proposed, which won’t be any substitute for loss of natural countryside.
There is no infrastructure to support proposed new housing, (GP surgery, School provision). The proposed road from Ryhall to Casterton Road will be jammed with cars heading to shopping centres, all on the east of the town.
It seems unjust that Rutland County Council would be achieving 50% of its housing targets with Quarry Farm, and claim Council Tax from these residents, without providing any services.

Summary:
It is a Local Candidate Wildlife site and it’s inclusion is in conflict with Rutland’s environmental strategy, especially its Nature Recovery Strategy (EN2), Biodiversity Action Plan and previous CS4 policy commitment to not build in open countryside. Neither does it fulfil the criteria for a sustainable community, partly because of the spatial strategy, but also because of its over-reliance on service and infrastructure provision in the neighbouring town of Stamford (within SKDC)

Representation Summary:

Rutland is not part of south Kesteven so we should not be burdened by their needs. We limited doctors and dentists as it is and the infrastructure for roads is insufficient as it is now. The flooding we have recently been hit with will become worse as climate worsens, we need green space and fields to support our drainage. I object on all accounts above.

Representation Summary:

If this development is approved it will be failing the people of Stamford and beyond, it will ignore not only the numerous objections over the past few years, but also the wellbeing of a community. It will put enormous strain on our infrastructure and local services. It will damage the precious environment that we all cherish. It will destroy the habitats of our wildlife that has survived and increased over many years.

Representation Summary:

Quarry Farm and the area of Stamford North is not an appropriate site for development. It a site of great biodiversity and Stamford infrastructure is already at breaking point. Where I live on Ryhall Road, the congestion is overwhelming with people trying to get to supermarkets and the doctors/schools.

Representation Summary:

Reason's for objection include a lack of confidence in the proposed infrastructure being able to support the development and a lack of confidence that promised additional facilities to support the increasing population won't suffice - Stamford already struggles with provision here (e.g. Drs surgeries). I also have reservations around the environmental impact. I will sue Rutland council if this goes ahead and we are negatively impacted despite the objections.

Representation Summary:

Despite the proposed development being in Rutland, the residents of these 650 houses will be dependent on and users of Stamford's already stretched infrastructure. Transport, health/medical facilities and education provision will be not be able to cope with the additional burden placed upon them, leading to increased stress and inconvenience for all residents, both existing and new.

Representation Summary:

The existing site has successfully changed from a working quarry to a habit of biodiversity. With our ever decreasing wildlife, surely we need to be preserving these sites rather than building on them. There are plenty of sites with no wildlife considerations such as Ashwell prison and St George’s Barracks that can be built in.

Representation Summary:

The proposed development is set in open countryside a space used by a large number of locals. It provides the perfect environment for wildlife including badgers, bats and deer. The Covid pandemic showed green free accessible open spaces are vital for people's wellbeing and mental health. This development will only add to Stamford's insufficient infrastructure, no NHS dental spaces, failing doctors surgery, most secondary school children are bused elsewhere, a failing road system around the local villages and town. The workers traffic sits on the A1 at A606 junction this will get worse as there is no work in Stamford.

This proposal would contribute to the destruction of the character and nature of Stamford, considered a jewel. The lives of anyone living nearby and in villages abutting the site would be forever plagued by the traffic, noise, light and air pollution delivered by this brutal plan. It is astonishing that with all the environmental damage already done that anyone with an eye to the future would ever consider it a good idea to destroy a unique parcel of land on which local people may experience that rare sense of nature and communal freedom.

Representation Summary:

Quarry farm is a local wildlife site with category a woodlands and diverse plant species and protected wildlife species.
This community development is not sustainable and would place unprecedented pressure on education and health care services.
The significant increase in traffic would make Stamford roads congested and dangerous - especially given that all amenities are the other side of town.
RCC have previously have had a policy against building in open countryside and there is no reason why Quarry farm should be the exception.

My objections are as follow: * Increased congestion * Strain on already stretched resources and infrastructure of Stamford * Lack of employment opportunities locally (especially those who don't drive) * Environment impact of the development on the site and wildlife * Money going to Rutland, when the impact will be felt by Stamford, * Hollow promises - relief road needed first, but this will probably be the last thing on the builders agenda and will never materialise. Also say they will build 50 less houses and still building 650 in a smaller area and crammed in (still same impact).

Stamford is already highly congested and adding 650 dwellings will bring it to a grinding halt. Building Stamford North will effectively almost join up the village of Ryhall with Stamford eating into the important greefield areas. There is not the infrastructure re. schools, healthcare, roads, town parking etc to accommodate so many houses.

Representation Summary:

Development will permanently damage an important wildlife and recreational area that is used and loved by many local residents. What will be left will be readily accessible to new residents ant the expense of existing. Road infrastructure is insufficient to support this many properties without substantial improvents not detailed in these plans or sufficient details to show how existing spine roads such as litle Casterton and Casterton will not be impacted. Other development such as St George's barracks does not have the same adverse impact.
