I have great concerns about the proposed commercial driveway being placed so close to my residence. No longer will I have the peace and quiet, nor the privacy that my home currently affords me; qualities that are necessary for me to sustain my employment as a shift-worker for people with disabilities.
Three of the four bedrooms in my home run along the side of the house nearest to the proposed development, the fourth on the other side of the house being a child’s bedroom. This means there will be vehicles going up and down right outside my bedroom window when I am trying to sleep. I am also very concerned about light pollution. I did not choose to live next to a thoroughfare.
Two of the owners have just been at my door to reassure me that the thoroughfare would only be used a few times a month and for short periods, but in reality there are no guarantees, and that can change.
I am very concerned for my mental and physical well-being should this proposal go ahead.
Sincerely, Karen Grace Runciman
