Representation ID: 21822

Received: 12/03/2020

Respondent: Mr Karl Sales

Number of people: 2

Representation Summary:

We welcome the decision that no new building applications are to be considered in Poringland and in particular GNLP0223.

We live on XXXX an overlook the land proposed in the application. We fully agree with the decision that any new development would be detrimental to the general appearance of the countryside and change the boundary of the village.

We see on a daily basis the over whelming congestion and access problems to Poringland as a whole and Sebald Crescent.

Any development on this land would need access via the already established Norfolk Homes site. Sebald Crescent would not be able to manage the additional traffic load after build completion and during the build process.

It is our opinion, that with the already approved applications in Poringland, the village has already reached saturation point.

We fully appreciate the need for new homes. But also feel building them in an area that has an oversubscribed school, doctor's surgery and major access issues would be a big mistake
