Village Clusters Housing Allocations Plan - Alternative Sites & Focused Changes (Reg. 18)

Representation ID: 3681

Received: 04/02/2024

Respondent: Mr Danny Clarke

Representation Summary:

Hackford and Wymondham Roads benefit from extensive views of the surrounding countryside (as stated in the current plan and Reg 18). This fact has been removed from the Reg 19 statement as it does not support the site allocations VC WIC1. The landscape has not changed between version 18 and 19, so neither should the description of Wicklewood. The development of this site and proposed additional allocation will severely impact the extensive views. In addition, the scale of development is disproportionate to the existing size of the village, will increase traffic levels and adversely impact the surrounding environment.
