Received: 16/03/2020

Respondent: Dr Sarah Morgan

Representation Summary:

The development proposal includes 28 “affordable” homes lower than Broadland District Council’s target of 30% affordable homes out of all housing completions.
The company said it uses sustainable products “wherever possible” in building homes. Should be 100% eco-green building, as demonstrated in Norwich Council development.
The housing development could add around 320 residents to the town’s existing population of just over 2,700 – an increase of almost 12%, however the schools and doctors’ surgery, as well as the water treatment works are already oversubscribed
Destruction of wildlife habitat both by direct development and the indirect human impact eg cat predation
