South Norfolk Village Clusters Housing Allocations Plan (Reg. 19 Pre-submission Draft)

Representation ID: 2783

Received: 06/03/2023

Respondent: Mr David Whitehead

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

The number of additional dwellings proposed for the cluster is too many. Road access to the Village is poor(single track roads), the primary school is at capacity, local GP and dental services are already stretched with no local NHS dental practices taking on new patients.
This ALP1 housing development will have a detrimental impact on local wildlife and the environment and the number of extra vehicle journeys resulting from this many additional households is a serious concern.

Change suggested by respondent:

Remove ALP1 from the VCHAP, if any development is required in our cluster the BAP1 site is preferred as long as traffic and pavement concerns can be addressed and it is a brownfield site.
