We strongly oppose the overall eight storey height of all the proposed dwellings in the development and in particular, the height of the block B3, Site B at the edge of Burnham Lane. B3 is not in character with the rest of the development and out of place in relation to the surrounding area. It would be more in keeping with the rest of the design if all units were the same height of 6 storeys or lower.
The development is not in keeping with the well-established,
quiet, local area and does not consider the significant impact on
local resources such as increased traffic in an already
over-trafficked zone, the resulting impact on traffic volume in
Burnham Lane, nor address the existing lack of available GP and
school spaces.
Residents' outlook will become unacceptably closed in with
buildings of such height. They are over-bearing and will create an
unacceptable loss of privacy to surrounding properties. The impact
on outlook will also directly affect residents' enjoyment of their
properties. There will be significant impact on light and noise
levels.
We also have concerns regarding the number of parking spaces available to the proposed 291 units. We feel that the under supply of spaces will have a marked impact on the surrounding areas.
We urge Slough Borough Council to take these comments into account when reviewing this application.
