Legally compliant? Yes
Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? No
At its meeting on 20th February, Kirby Cane & Ellingham Parish Council took the view that the plan was unsound because it does not fulfil the objective “to protect village communities and support rural services and facilities” because there was no indication that wider services such as health and education, already under significant strain, would be improved, and also fails to comply with the duty to co-operate as it does not take account of the concerns of the community about this.
Also, residents voiced concerns about whether the sewage system could deal with existing demand, let alone 25 more properties.
Greater attention needs to be paid to these wider service and infrastructure issues at local, regional and national level to take an holistic approach to development.

Sewage and waste water back up and causes houses from 62 to 68 Mill Rd to have their toilets back up until the system is cleared by anglian water (48 hours or more minimum) unable to use toilet or domestic foul water and sewage drainage . Other houses in Mill Rd may suffer from this but I have not canvassed these residents. These houses are at the end of the sewer pipe run opposite where the new house are proposed.
The sewage and waste water network needs to be upgraded to always be fit for purpose as is and certainly upgraded to take the effluent from additional housing and people. The existing sewer system must therefore be inadequate for its intended purpose to service the new proposed development.

The present sewers are unable to cope with the houses we have already. We are regularly having blocked toilets and pipes. I am at the end of the line and the first to get blocked pipes and have waste backup from around ten houses, into my garden. Anglian Water have been out many times, but we have to wait two days for them, and use the garden meanwhile. This is totally unacceptable. More houses would have a very negative impact on my neighbours and myself. I'm fed up with receiving other peoples waste.
A completely new sewerage system or even better, a different location for the houses.
