South Norfolk Village Clusters Housing Allocations Plan (Reg. 19 Pre-submission Draft)

Representation ID: 2970

Representation Summary:

This paragraph appears to relate to a technical issue, but it does sound worrying. I heard at a Parish Council meeting some time ago that Anglian Water might be struggling already as a result of the extensive housing programme in and around Wymondham, so it appears to demonstrate yet another example of inadequate infrastructure locally

Change suggested by respondent:

There's scope for more infill housing. Stick to that as Wicklewood's contribution to the overall plan, as it's within the existing planning boundary (that I understand the proposals aren't). Proposals suggest modest numbers but there's already a published desire for significant extension to whatever is allowed - and that will destroy the ambience and character of Wicklewood as a traditional Norfolk village. My comments elsewhere in this submission are all relevant, and having attended a recent Parish Council meeting I agree with their views.
