Respondent: Mr Joe Darrell
Some of the proposals set out, such as the need to retain landscape gaps between communities and water neutrality are commendable. Housing density should be higher, particularly in Norwich. The design and layout of victorian terraced housing might well be a model for our future low carbon world. This policy reads as a gloss to cover the shortcomings of the overall vision, it should be the main item on the menu with far greater emphasis on the location of new housing. Any Sustainability Statement should be carried out before allowing any site to be included in the Local Plan.
