Respondent: Dr David Smith

Representation Summary:

I am horrified by this proposal which appears to extend Norwich as far as Honingham. When I was born here it was a rural village, I had hoped that it would remain so, Norfolk is a famously rural county and should be maintained as such rather than be developed for the benefit of an already wealthy landowner. This proposal is galloping urbanisation and should be completely unacceptable. The tiny concession to nature implies that it would be satisfactory to preserve less than 1% of the countryside, I find the concept of a county 99% developed totally abhorent. Please reconsider.
