Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

Representation ID: 20068

Received: 23/02/2020

Respondent: MR Marlon Fulcher

Representation Summary:

Due to the location of HEL4 this allocation cannot fulfil its intention. It is remote from the centre of Hellesdon and only residents on the northern boundary can access it easily, there is currently no provision for parking (and there is not likely to be due to the necessary costs). If HEL4 is to be counted as allocation for recreational open space then it must serve the majority of the parish, much of which is over 1.5 miles distant. It is irresponsible to create a green space which you then need to use the car to drive to!
