Draft Greater Norwich Local Plan – Part 1 The Strategy

Representation ID: 21129

Received: 15/03/2020

Respondent: Mr. Graham Johnson

Representation Summary:

I agree that with the GNLP that Horsford should have no allocation of sites, other than GNLP0264. Horsford has been allocated 479 homes to date, which equated to 11.9% of the 9% total housing growth as identified by GNLP. I have reservations in regard to "village clusters", (Horsford falls in this group) would this mean that settlement boundaries redefined around the perimeter of these cluster villages which would mean that green field land is vulnerable to further development - and sites could be built on that are not suitable for development on the the fringe of the village.
