Respondent: Bunwell Parish Council

The Plan only makes allowance for 3–5 windfall dwellings during the Plan period up until 2038 excluding Affordable and some self-build. We consider this insufficient for balanced expansion. Bunwell, as an example, has a serious lack of new 2/3 bedroom houses under market builds which is adversely affecting the primary school intake to the point where a nursery class has now been created. To address the housing needs balance, allocated sites must have a significant number of 2/3 bedroom commercial build houses plus onsite Affordable Housing. Offsite Affordable is an option but it must be in the village concerned
