Please find the below officer level response from Great Yarmouth Borough Council on your Regulation 18 Draft Strategy and Site Allocations Consultation.
The Strategic Planning team welcomes the document and would support the Greater Norwich Local Plan (GNLP) Team on reaching this important stage of plan production. They would agree that this is an appropriate strategy and that it should comply with the updated 2019 NPPF. Strategic Planning would also agree that the document is in conformity with the aims and agreements of the Norfolk Strategic Planning Framework.
Strategic Planning would note the references within the Strategy document which relate to Great Yarmouth and would suggest that the strategic links to Great Yarmouth are strengthened and the importance of the offshore energy sector, related growth opportunities and tourism industry in Great Yarmouth are made more explicit. This is particularly so with the full dulling of the A47 which is supported by our local authorities through the A47 alliance.
Overall Strategic Planning would have no further comments to make on the documents at this time, but would reserve the right to comment on future stages of the plan production.
