Objections made to sites GNLP 0133D and E - Site D appears to extend further to the south than the equivalent area allocated in the Norwich Site Allocations Plan (R41) unacceptably intruding further into an integral part of the Yare Valley; in addition the provision of an acceptable access would destroy the area and be difficult to achieve from Bluebell Road; GNLP0133E would involve the intensive development of the Strawberry Field which a green area, wildlife corridor and recreational resource highly valued by local people. Questions whether existing structures on the Strawberry Field site (E) have planning permission.
I would like to make objection to GNLP 0133-D (part shown in picture attached) as it will clearly extends R41 (which has been agreed but I am unhappy with). This goes deeper into the valley moving closer to the UEA lake, creating far too much development into an area for wildlife, human leisure, and a just lovely area. A lung for the people and the students and staff at the University.
My objection GNLP 0133-E is that it goes right down to the lake. It is part of the area known as "the Strawberry fields" because that was what it was for many years. The development that has taken place there with temporary(?) buildings and greenhouses with strong lights blazing 24/7 is an place of much speculation, much of it around the growth of exotic substances. I hope it has much security. Have the buildings there received Planning Permission?
Access to the site for development would either being via R41 from the University, so destroying that area, or directly from Bluebell Road - there is a very large drop down. It is an integral part of the Yare Valley and part of the Yare Valley wildlife corridor and connected across the road to the Eaton Park, with the Eaton Park wood which is alongside Bluebell Road.
My objection GNLP 0133-F is similar to the details above. it is the main part of the area known as 'the Strawberry fields'. it is an integral part of the Yare Valley and part of the Yare valley wildlife corridor and connected across the road to the Eaton Park, with the Eaton park wood which is alongside Bluebell Road, and well used for walking and recreation purposes by locals.
