Representation Summary:

Hempnall Parish Council policy states that the current recent development at Willow Drive together with infill (windfall) developments and the hoped for provision of social housing on the site now called VC HEM1 is considered the right amount of new housing for the village. In total these developments will increase the number of houses in the village by around 10% - a manageable amount which will enable the successful assimilation of the new households into the community but not an over large number which would threaten the character and environment of Hempnall.

Change suggested by respondent:

Notwithstanding our opposition to the whole concept of village clusters Hempnall Parish Council does welcome the fact that none of the other sites (other than VC HEM1) put forward by landowners/developers for inclusion in the SNVC plan have progressed in to the documents that are being circulated in the Regulation 19 consultation and we re-state our strong opposition to the inclusion of any further sites in Hempnall other than VC HEM1.
