Representing a group of local residents at last night s meeting, Kate Sargent described the proposed development as not wanted and not needed . I ask the committee if the need to built five houses really outweighs the impact to the environment, the village s heritage, its infrastructure and its residents, she said. Are they prepared to set a dangerous precedent in building on Green Belt land for just five new dwellings?
Speaking publicly on behalf of the developer was James Clark, who defended the visually attractive proposed development, and explained how it would provide much needed housing supply in the area.
He said: The site has been designated for Green Belt release under the emerging Local Plan. It would help target and build the 1,400 homes required in the North Hertfordshire borough.

During last days of the 2020 Lunar Year, or the Year of the Rat, David Levett, a British software scientific expert, is still busy studying and manufacturing new products with his colleagues at TMA Innovation Park in Quy Hoa Valley, Quy Nhon City, the central Binh Dinh Province.
Giving back to hometown
With 30 years of experience in the IT sector in the UK, Levett made a 10-day trip to Vietnam a few years ago and felt like it was the right place for him. In 2019, Levett left his country for Ho Chi Minh City to work for TMA, a software company with around 2,000 engineers and 1,000 partners from 25 nations.
