Long Sutton housing complex proposal denied amidst overdevelopment worries Lincolnshire
Plans to build 56 new homes in Long Sutton have been rejected by South Holland District Council's Planning Committee, who raised concerns about overdevelopment.
However, councillors disagreed, considering the plans to be"overdeveloped." They expressed worries about increased traffic on nearby roads and the impact on sewage systems. "There's flexibility and then there's taking the proverbial and I think it's worthwhile testing the water."Councillor David Ashby also criticised the developers, saying,"They've already doubled the first phase, were they to double the second phase our residents wouldn't suffer it."
