| Dear Adrian I am just writing further to your filenote NDP-0156 discussions dated 20th December 2013 that you sent through to me by email and with specific reference to your paragraph two of that email, first bullet point – ‘why the access was proposed halfway down a fast hill and why the ideas that had been suggested over the years of a mini roundabout by school house for access and traffic calming had been ignored’. Our professional Chartered Highways Engineer Peter Kelly of BCAL has generally always been of the view that a mini roundabout by school house would not be in line with highway practice. Northamptonshire County Council’s Highway Liaison Engineer has now fully endorsed our Highways Engineers opinion in this regard and we shall have a written affirmative response to be displayed on the evening of 3rd February 2014. We shall also be addressing the other two specific points raised in your email of 23rd December 2013 regarding the positioning of the houses on site vis-à-vis the village green, and the proposed development will show half the field being proposed as a development for residential and community benefit in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) March 2012. By all means do copy this email through to the NDP Working Party and incorporate on your website if that will assist in transparency and communication. |

| Q. The plans take away the views enjoyed by the current residents of Duchy Close and replaces it with new residents back gardens. The new residents will benefit from the beautiful views. The Village green to be placed in front of the new properties will disjoint the Village. The plans should be rotated. A. The layout that has been submitted is intended to give a general indication of the type of development proposed and how the various elements of the scheme could be laid out within the site. The layout does not show the only way in which the site could be laid out and the comment that has been received makes some useful points. If the Village was minded to move forward with some form of development on the site, the owner and his agent would be happy to engage with the community in the design of the development, with the aim of achieving a scheme that offered benefits for the community and had a satisfactory relationship with neighbouring properties. |
