Representation ID: 21063

Received: 15/03/2020

Respondent: mr Anthony Tovell

Representation Summary:

Meaningful consultation requires the those affected by this type of development should be given all the facts and people should be given the chance to voice their opinion. Nobody has the right to march all over peoples lives and you should expect Politicians and local Government Officers to ensure any development is about the actually needs as apposed to unscrupulous land owners benefiting from positions of advantage!

You would hope that it is possible to develop a web site that is more conducive to public consultation. If you genuinely desire to receive opinions from people you should alter your web site as it is extremely difficult to negotiate!
1.Site was always outside the building envelope, therefore who made the decision and when to change the boundary without seeking Parish support?
2.Most of the existing comments point out how dangerous and busy Rectory Rd is. You cannot ignore these comments and you must amend your support accordingly.
3 A Parish meeting unanimously rejected phase one, now we have phase two and how many more phases?
4 Do the correct thing and refuse this application!
5 Crocus Homes, cancelled public meeting scheduled for Friday 13th March. Before any formal committee discussion takes place the meeting should be reconvened?
6. Interestingly "social homes" are mentioned but no other indication of the type of homes to be built, the number of bed spaces to be provided, the density of houses and if residents will have adequate provision to garage vehicles, store garden equipment and other associated family equipment?
7. To accommodate a development of this quantity it suggests the traffic arrangements will be difficult and subject to abuse ( do you honestly believe car users will drive round to join the North Walsham road?)
8.Perhaps somebody, at some point, will explain to Coltishall residents how this site was identified for development and what was the criteria used against the forty four thousand other homes identified?
9. Can we be assured all the existing agencies and services needed to build and service this site have been identified and agreement reached before this site is being formally considered?
