Representation ID: 21825

Received: 12/03/2020

Respondent: Barford Parish Council

Representation Summary:

• Please see many of the points made above (See attached for full submission) which are not being repeated here other than to re-iterate the following:
• Barford and Wramplingham Parish Council STRONGLY OBJECT to
o the lack of consideration of the village cluster locations in South Norfolk district in this GNLP consultation process with special reference to those areas around Barford and Wramplingham.
o The fact that many of the proposed village cluster locations are on green belt and outside the current development areas, and in our case often in flood plain and GI corridor areas.
o The lack of transparency in the consideration of these village clusters.
o The way village clusters seem to be a route to getting around normal planning conditions. We fully agree with the comment made in the CPRE response: ““Village Clusters” appear to be an artificial concept, invented to justify the dispersal of housing into the countryside.”
