| C. You are quoting rules and regulations at us, not trying to work with us. This design hasn't been thought through. Duchy Close is already a problem with people having to park in the hammerhead. If that goes, people will be parking on the pavement and the emergency vehicles would struggle to get through. A. We are here to work with you and hear what you want. |

| Q. What sort of houses are they? A. A mixture of 2, 3, 4 bedroomed houses with some "affordable". Q. There doesn't seem to be anywhere near enough parking in this design. It is a major problem in Duchy Close already and elsewhere in the Village. Every adult needs a car. Every house needs a minimum of 2 off street spaces. A. We do understand, but we are constrained by rules and regulations which put limits on this. |

| I want to make some comments on the design: C. You shouldn't have put the green where it is - it should have been a buffer next to the public footpath to separate the old and new development. C. We don't need a shop - the last one closed because of lack of custom. C. We don't need a new Village Hall - we have one and have the money to upgrade it. A. We are here to listen to your views, we are trying to follow what people said they wanted in the last Village survey. Villages need facilities to become communities. |

| Q. Why have you routed traffic to some houses through Duchy Close? The hammerhead turning point at the top of Duchy Close will then be lost. This is now used for parking as there is not enough parking already in Duchy Close. 8 new houses will be at least 16 cars plus visitors. There won't be enough space. A. Firstly, we have attempted to partly integrate the new development with Duchy Close to follow the "Manual for Streets" document NDP-0162. Of course this is only an indicative design and we could re-route the road to avoid Duchy Close if this is perceived to be a major problem. Secondly, we have added the number of parking spaces recommended by the design manuals and local councils. |
