We are only a sm<strong>all</strong> county. We only have so much land. Historic<strong>all</strong>y we are the gateway to England. No other County<br />

has as much history. It is true you cannot stop development, but it has to be done in a structured manner. The Essex<br />

Gateway is a disaster in the making. It is known as Essex Concrete if you build a road, then sooner or later buildings pop up<br />

along it. More roads - more traffic (ie new A130, now traffic jams up on the Rayleigh Spur and A127). More houses - more<br />

cars, places at schools, hospitals etc more waste. New factories - more jobs. NO! Outsiders come in to fill the vacancies<br />

and buy our houses etc. We should be doing more for the policing <strong>of</strong> our area to keep it safe, more to <strong>all</strong>ow young people<br />

to get priority for a home in the district they were born in and while we're about it lets turn Rayleigh Town Centre back to a<br />

shopping centre and not a lager brains paradise <strong>of</strong> a weekend. (nothing against sensible drinking).<br />

Rayleigh used to be a very pleasant place to live, it now no longer is. Expansion in housing requires more social and<br />

transport facilities.<br />

There is a need for more Civic Amenity sites. We are not <strong>all</strong>owed to use the Stock Road site any more. One should be built<br />

near Rochford (maybe the Purdeys Industrial Estate). Rayleigh is too far to go, burning up more petrol than could ever be<br />

saved through recycling. Gypsy traveller sites are needed <strong>all</strong> over the country but are not peopular with settled<br />

communities. Rochford remains a rural area, and is therefore better suited than most to <strong>of</strong>fer a site for this purpose. There<br />

has to be a solution to this problem.<br />

The <strong>of</strong>f road parking in side roads is out <strong>of</strong> control, i.e. parking on bends, parking on bus routes, parking across pavements,<br />

parking partly on pavements, people with prams have to go into road to get past them. Covering car parks into patios so<br />

car's have to park in road. This is just a sm<strong>all</strong> part <strong>of</strong> the problem that no one seems to try to stop or police or council can<br />

be bothered with<br />

I am please as residents in the area that we have been asked our views on the <strong>Planning</strong> for the future. For 3700 homes to<br />

be built in this area, <strong>all</strong> key factors in your questionnaire would indeed have to be resolved. However, my family and I are<br />

tot<strong>all</strong>y opposed to any further housing development in the South East <strong>of</strong> England. The general consensus in the vicinity is<br />

that our right to breathe clean air and the fundamental need for space, has been eroded. It is not our wish to have any<br />

further development in an already overcrowded and overstretched South East and to rescind any green belt is abhorent.<br />

We intend to stand firm and together on this issue.<br />

Sorry I am late returning this. No council could do more for its residents than give them the opportunity to voice their<br />

opinions. I re<strong>all</strong>y had to struggle to answer this questionnaire. It stops to make you think. Thank you.<br />

As you can tell by our <strong>comments</strong> we feel this country (it's Government) has no idea where it is heading - Development,<br />

Immigration, Law & Order, Infrastructure, Health Care. All will suffer (further) from artificial development unless the load is<br />

spread over the whole country. Please organize a referendum for and against Central Government Policy - bring back<br />

"Local control".<br />

RDC could do more to recycle. There is no way for people living in Hullbridge, without a car, to recycle cardboard, plastic recycling<br />

needs to be upgraded - why is it only bottles that can be recycled at the local collection point in our village?<br />

Unadopted roads in Hullbridge - what is being done about this issue? The parish council has been campaining to RDC to<br />

adopt the roads in Hullbridge - when can we expect to see a plan for this?<br />

It is disappointing to note that residents have had their privacy spoilt by <strong>all</strong>owing developments and conversions that<br />

overlook gardens. Home owners have frequently spent a lifetime aquiring a property only to have their plans dashed by<br />

weak planning controls.
