Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

Representation ID: 20937

Received: 14/03/2020

Respondent: Mr A Larwood

Representation Summary:

I would have thought that development to the South of the railway line would be better for the village and the proposed development as most of the facilities (school, shops, village hall) are in that sector. It would still impact existing properties but to a lesser extent than the other preferred options. The impact of building work would probably be less disruptive along Buckenham Lane. However, I still need to be convinced that the village infrastructure can cope with the number of proposed developments in terms of drainage, school places and medical support.
