Of all the proposed sites in Barnham Broom I believe this one is most in keeping with the rest of the village, and will have the least negative environmental impact in an area already heavily constrained by agricultural activity.

NCC need to develop a climate action plan before any new builds take place . We need more green spaces, a village meadow and ways of conserving what is here rather than increase stress on the failing infrastructure and struggling wild life.

Site SN0018SL, Land north of Norwich Road, adj 101 – Question 21. This area is outside the Existing Settlement Limit, we have concerns on its close proximity to a bend in the road with poor visibility, concerns over noise pollution from nearby telephone exchange, and note that there is no footpath in the area.

Edge of the village and on a left hand bend entering and exiting, which could provide a highways danger. The proposal is for a 3 build, which is relatively minor in the provision of new homes. Would this provide an affordable homes option?

The Environmental Protection Team are not aware of any significant land quality issue with this site or adjacent land. However, having regard to the size of the site and sensitivity of the proposed development it is considered that a Phase One Land Contamination Report (Desk Study) should be required as part of any planning application.

The site is adjacent to a telephone exchange which has a potential to have a negative impact on the amenity of the residents of any dwellings constructed on the site due to noise. It is therefore considered that this will need to be addressed as part of any application for dwellings on this site.

Due to the size of this development and its proximity to existing dwellings, an application to develop this site is likely to attract the recommendation that standard planning condition AM05 Construction Management Plan be attached to any approval. It may be worth highlighting to applicants that to avoid any delay in discharging this condition, they may wish to include a Construction Management Plan with their application. If the submitted Construction Management Plan is adequate, the an alternative condition could be attached to any approval requiring its implementation.

Foul Water Capacity
For sites SN0552, SN0018SL, SN2110, SN4051, SN0055, SN0174 andSN0196 available information indicates may be around 150 houses planned here in total for preferred and shortlisted sites. Barnham Broom has some capacity for foul water flows (for approximately 50 houses) but not for all the houses planned in these developments. Discussions will need to be held with Anglian Water (AWS), and development must be phased in line with WRC treatment capacity being made available.

Rating: Green no major ecological constraints identified from desk-top search. Surveys, and biodiversity enhancement in accordance with policy required.
The application site comprises a single field. Except for the hedges, there are no Priority Habitats onsite (MAGIC). It is located within a SSSI Impact Risk Zone, but housing is not identified as requiring consultation with Natural England. It is located in an area identified as an amber zone for great crested newts. Applications for planning consent should be accompanied by a Preliminary Ecological Appraisal/Ecological Impact Assessment (EcIA) which, together with the mitigation hierarchy should inform the design. Consideration should be given to delivering Biodiversity Net Gain. Opportunities to enhance and extend priority habitats are encouraged.
