The plans would see 85 homes built on the site.
Wendover Parish Council's objection, now submitted to Buckinghamshire council, followed a unanimous vote opposing the proposal. They say that the plans for the area, which serves as the gateway between the National Landscape and Wendover, would mean "the permanent loss of open countryside in a valued landscape".
They added that: "while the Parish Council notes that this proposal is for up to 85 dwellings only and that access is the sole matter for determination at this stage, the Council considers that the application remains unacceptable in principle and does not mitigate against the conclusions of a previous application that was rejected on appeal for this site."
In their statement, they also highlighted that the following issues - identified in previous applications - have not been addressed by this development:
Consideration of access - New access points, visibility splays, road engineering and associated works along Aylesbury Road would themselves contribute to the erosion of the rural character and gateway function of this approach to Wendover.
Landscape – any development would result in the permanent loss of open countryside in a valued landscape
Settlement Pattern – the proposed site plays a critical role as an open gap and gateway
Visual amenity – this would suburbanise the landscape and significantly impact the experience of using the public rights of way around the development.
By submitting their objection, they hope that it will be discussed in committee, where they can speak against the plans.
