REF WAH242 Calderfields Farm

I would like to express my disgust and dismay that as a person resident [redacted sensitive information] where the above development is proposed with one of the potential accesses [redacted sensitive information] the first notification I had of this was from a third party. In my experience people adjacent to or within a close vicinity have always been made aware of potential developments. I have had people coming to me and asking if I have heard anything because [redacted sensitive information]
There have been no notices posted that I am aware of and it has been left to local residents to advise everyone in the area of the proposal.
I assume the lack of council action is down to the pandemic and everyone working from home!

In view of the lack of consultation I would explore you to ensure the deadline for making representations at present the 11th October 2021 is extended and would be grateful if you would confirm you will do this.

I would also ask that in view of all your comments in the past on the necessity of protecting our precious green belt you will confirm that as leader of the council you will oppose the development of the above site for all the reasons that I feel certain and am partly aware have been stressed in comment forms that have already been lodged and that you have no doubt read with interest.

I have asked two questions here Mr Bird neither of which I consider complicated and would request a straightforward answer to each preferably, yes and to when, and secondly, yes I will support opposition particularly to the above proposed development as well as other Greenbelt areas in the borough.
