| Q. All of the water from this site will go to Water Lane which already floods. Won't this make it worse? A. This will not affect Water Lane. The Environment Agency will make us take into account a one in a hundred years flooding event and will ask us to take climate change into account. Q. But Water Lane floods already! This will make it worse. A. We don’t have to do anything about existing flooding, we mustn't make it worse. |

| Q. Won't all this building seriously affect drainage? A. There are now regulations which mean that all building work mustn't impact on drainage - the Environment Agency has a say in this and must vet the scheme. All of the houses will be on soakaways and then there will be a balancing pond on the site into which the land can drain. This will have a pipe from it into the brook in Water Lane with a hydrobrake inside it to ensure slow run off. |

| C. Well we certainly don't want 50 more houses - we didn't ask for that. A. I having been coming to the meetings and have studied the survey you did. 18 people asked for affordable housing. |
