Unreasonable that Thurlton should be subject to these allocations when adjoining parish of Norton Subcourse fails to take share of reasonable development.
We ask the LPA to re-consider site SN0309 in Norton Subcourse as infill development and as a suitable alternative to SN0149. Site is accessible, continues linear nature of village, is not close to the listed church, does not constitute a 'breakout' into the countryside, does not require the felling of trees and would not impact wildlife. Any loss of hedging for access would be mitigated by re-planting. Also flexibility in size, scale and numbers.
We ask the LPA to reconsider site SN0309 as infill development for the village of Norton Subcourse and therefore, as a suitable alternative site to SN0149.
We ask officers to be mindful of the legal obligation to consider fully alternative sites as to building in the countryside.
