Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

Representation ID: 20238

Received: 03/03/2020

Respondent: Mrs Elaine Parkinson

Representation Summary:

I endorse the GNLP findings that this site is unsuitable for allocation and unnecessary as there is more than sufficient land available for existing organisations to re-locate their business.
I regret that the GNLP does not appear to be able to prevent the planning application made by Ben Burgess Ltd to develop this site, which is larger than the village of Swainsthorpe. However, I hope that South Norfolk planners and counsellors will heed the GNLP findings and as such be unable to justify the destruction of arable fields and the re-definition of Swainsthorpe as an adjunct to an industrial complex.
