Although Glavenhill offers support to the concept of village clusters, agreeing that there is a need to allocate new housing in accessible, rural locations to help support sustainable patterns of growth, they cannot support the significant emphasis that is placed upon rural village clusters (outside of the old Norwich Policy Area (NPA)). An alternative strategy is suggested within these representations.

The principle of having ‘standard requirements’ is a sensible approach and avoids repetition within the site specific policies of the draft plan. However, in this instance Glavenhill consider them unnecessary and in the case of some of the requirements, inappropriate. Glavenhill suggest that Policy SNVC1 be deleted and any specific requirements be included within the policy wording of individual allocations.

It is Glavenhill’s view that a policy on ‘design’ is not required. Question 3 highlights the local design documents that are already in place to ensure the high-quality design of developments and as such, any design policy would be considered duplication. It is respectively requested that the draft plan be amended to refer developers / applicants to the relevant design guidance.

It is Glavenhill’s view that a ‘housing mix’ policy is unnecessary as it duplicates other documents and policies. Glavenhill respectfully request that this section of the document be amended to refer developers / applicant to the relevant housing needs assessments and GNLP policies which establish housing mix.

Please see attachments for full response.
We seek an extension to the existing settlement limit of the village to include an additional 0.7ha of land along Norwich Road. The site forms part of SN2091 which has been rejected within the current VCHAP.
Due to site’s accessibility and capacity of settlement to accommodate growth, these representations address the Council’s concerns on SN2091 and promote a much-reduced area of land to the West of Norwich Road for residential development.
We wish the reduced site to be included within a minor extension to the existing settlement limit as opposed to previously suggested site-specific allocation. Also proposed that remainder of the SN2091 and wider land ownership be safeguarded/designated for new publicly accessible habitat improvement area.
