1) It MUST contain the planning application number: 11/0100/1/0X (LUBBESTHORPE NEW TOWN DEVELOPMENT)
2) It MUST contain a FULL postal address including POST CODE.
3) It MUST be signed.
4) Your objection must contain REASONS. Merely stating "we do not want 4,250 houses" will not be enough. Perhaps, "The development will increase traffic congestion," or "The 4250 houses will be located in an area which is already operating at maximum vehicle capacity. The Highways Agency state that there should be an allowance for 1.5 cars per household. An additional 6,375 vehicles on the immediate local road network will cause severe traffic congestion and increase journey times."
With regards to the above, part two of this series will contain example arguments. Remember to follow this site (top left corner - follow by email) or email lfe.rag@live.co.uk to be added to our mailing list.
5) It MUST be clear that you are objecting. Open the objection with something like: I object to this planning application for the following reasons.
6) Objections CANNOT be the same. Therefore if you and your partner send in two identical objections they will be considered as one. Instead tweak them, change the paragraphs around. Change the structure of the paragraphs etc.
7) It must be sent to and arrive at Blaby District Council before the deadline - 25th July 2012.
Objections can be made in writing or electronically: www.blaby.gov.uk/lubbesthorpe
If you wish to make your objection in writing feel free to download our blank objection letter which is designed with the above points in mind.
Remember - each individual of a household should submit an objection letter (although try and not to send identical letters - see point 6).
If you have any concerns, queries, questions, or just want to contact us, please feel free to email lfe.rag@live.co.uk, or leave a comment below.
