Representation ID: 20110

Received: 26/02/2020

Respondent: Ms Mary Reed

Representation Summary:

This large site is not necessary for development as existing (28) and future small development plans will suffice for the needs of the village and growth expectations. This large site along with GNLP3003 and small sites approved puts growth at over 16% in Reedham and the village should not be expected to overdevelop to compensate for other villages. The GNLP plan suggests the need homes is because the school has capacity but that is not necessarily the case. Also the consideration of the points in the Neighbourhood Plan re darks skies, farming and wildlife will be impacted by this development.
