South Norfolk Village Clusters Housing Allocations Plan (Reg. 18 Draft)

Representation ID: 1700

Received: 01/08/2021

Respondent: Mr Anthony Procter

Representation Summary:

OBJECT in the strongest possible terms to any further large scale housing development in Little Melton as the village simply doesn't have the infrastructure to cope with any further such development.
The Doctors and Dentist surgeries are already at full capacity. Road Safety for pedestrians, cyclists and other road users is already of concern given the narrow carriageways and increased traffic from development would exacerbate this. Prevalence of flooding, lack of public transport and services and a small school with no room for expansion are raised.
Concern is highlighted for land dedicated for 'Landscape Protection' being included and not maintaining a strategic gap between Little Melton and Hethersett. Also the loss of land to building which has been a valuable resource for health and well being during the Covid lock downs.
