Draft Greater Norwich Local Plan – Part 1 The Strategy

Representation ID: 21064

Received: 15/03/2020

Respondent: Saving Swainsthorpe Campaign

Representation Summary:

The notion of an integrated three council plan is clearly logical. Unfortunately the contents of the plan does imply a bias in favour of developers and pay little if any attention to residents, place and, critically, the environment and no attempt to consider seriously the carbon footprint of the plan. The focus is on housing provision rather than overall planning of a sub region. The housing targets are significantly in excess of that which is required and contains reference (at page37) of two additional contingency locations.
