Village Clusters Housing Allocations Plan - Reg. 19 Pre-submission Addendum

I write in response to the current consultation in respect of the South Norfolk Village Clusters Housing Allocations Plan - Regulation 19 Pre-submission Addendum, and in respect of site VC EAR2 Land north of The Street, Earsham.

We are a local developer who have recently acquired an interest in the above site and are in support of the proposed allocation. We are aware that there have been previous submissions and representations submitted. Additional information is also attached by way of demonstrating that the frontage footpath and connection of the footpath to the existing can be delivered within the highway boundary and land owned by the County. I have attached the highway boundary maps and an overlay of the footpath onto the highways boundary to show the works are deliverable. There is also a triangular wooded area adjacent to the site that may require some trees/hedgerow cut back to facilitate the footpath. The title for this area is attached showing its owned by the County Council.

We confirm that we would intend to submit a planning application for the site once the allocation is confirmed following undertaking all necessary supporting reports, surveys and design. Once permission is granted we would look to be starting on site within 18 months (period to carry out detailed design, discharge pre-commencement conditions and obtain road & sewer technical approvals). The delivery of the site should be two years from start.
