High Density Housing

The Balreask Manor neighbours are particularly concerned about this point. The major issues are:
  1. The high housing density close in the new area to an estate of relatively low density.
  2. A laneway for new residents running behind Balreask Manor houses which would undoubyedly be a focus for anti-social behaviour.
  3. At least one medium high-rise block which will overlook the Balreask Manor houses and backyards.

I should have added that the housing density contravenes the LAP3 which called for the highest density in the "town centre". This is a good and solid objection.

However, remember that the LAP3 itself was written in part by the developers and there are all sorts of escape clauses in it.
