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

Representation ID: 1734

Received: 26/07/2021

Respondent: Wheatacre Parish Council

Representation Summary:

All Parish Councillors and all but one of the residents were opposed to this site with the exception of one plot at the east of the site which SNC had already refused. Councillors and residents thought this plot should be permitted.
Reason for not supporting this site:
a) Poor drainage and floods.
b) Highway network and particularly adjacent cross roads are very busy and would struggle to cope with additional traffic.
c) There are no footways or school in the village. Children have to be bused 4 miles to Toft Monks primary school and roads get very congested with parents meeting children.
d) Scenic views across open farmland would be interrupted.
