SUMMARY OF COMMENTS

RESPONSE

ACTION

 In relation to future development in Silverdale, can the proposed building site at the former Appleby on Emesgate Lane not be included in the council quota for new housing and so take pressure off Greenfield sites?

 Comment noted. The council will welcome the opportunity to work with Parish Councils to seek to meet their current and future development needs in the most sustainable manner. However, should Parish Council’s fail to address the housing needs of all sections of their community the Council will seek to address development needs in the most suitable and sustainable locations possible through the preparation of the Local Development Plan.  Further investigations will be undertaken in relation to flood risk. Further investigation work will be undertaken in relation to the drainage and flood risk issues that face this site prior to future drafts of the document. To date no objections have been received from either the Environment Agency or United Utilities.  The provision of new housing not only provides the opportunity to maintain a healthy and balance community with the creation of appropriate housing to meet current and future generations any sustainable growth in population will assist in securing the long-term viability of key services within the village.  As with any standard consultation
