Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

Representation ID: 20761

Received: 12/03/2020

Respondent: Dr G M Courtier

Representation Summary:

Conversion of this site to residential development would be contrary to the need to retain land for employment purposes. Although effectively a brownfield site, the temptation to introduce further high density housing in this area, where first families will want to extend or sell, should be resisted. Residential development of this 3.6ha (plus 1.01 ha for GLNP0185) in Diss is unjustified.
