People in Nettleham say the village cannot keep growing without more infrastructure as it faces additional housing plans.
A planning application to expand an already-approved development will be decided by West Lindsey District Council next week.
It would add a further 27 homes to the 80-home project on Cricketer’s Walk, which is partially under construction.
However, Nettleham Parish Council says the site would become too densely populated, and residents are wary of any more properties being built after recent expansions.
Richard Georgeson said: “The problem is the infrastructure – builders like building, but not putting in the things residents need. They might build a doctor’s surgery or two, but that’s mostly cosmetic.
“Since new developments have started, the sewers have backed up and overflowed into the stream several times.
“There haven’t been road improvements to deal with the extra traffic we are getting.
“As the population increases, we need to look at roundabouts on busy junctions like Washdyke Lane and the A46.”
Jane, who did not give her surname, said: “We have got enough homes with all those currently being built – we do not need any more.
“If anything, there should be more low-cost houses. It seems to be massive ones which are going up – it does not help the ‘expensive village’ myth.”
Nettleham has also seen significant construction on projects on Deepdale Lane in recent years.
An elderly resident said: “They keep building houses, but without the extra doctors, the village cannot keep up.
“We need the facilities in the area.
“Some of the new builds look like industrial estates. It is a shame as it is such a lovely village.”
The latest application has been submitted by Truelove Property & Construction Ltd.
This plan would remove some homes from the original design and add 47 two- to five-bedroom properties for a net gain of 27 homes.
Nettleham Parish Council has argued in its objection: “Residents wanted to see a number of smaller developments rather than a small number of large developments.”
They say the additional homes would break the neighbourhood plan’s rules for how many homes can be built in a particular area.
Truelove Property claims in the planning documents that the overall density for the housing project is within the acceptable limit.
It says: “The scheme demonstrates an exceptionally high design quality borne out of rigorous design development.”
Documents claim there are “no overlooking, dominance or loss of light concerns” and all properties would have “good-sized garden areas”.
The application is recommended for approval at West Lindsey’s planning committee on Wednesday, 8 January.
