Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations
Representation ID: 21989
Received: 13/03/2020
Respondent: Redenhall with Harleston Town Council
The Joint Core Strategy envisaged 200-300 new homes in Harleston, which was described as "moderate", however the number of dwellings being considered by the developers for the Briar Farm site alone are now around 420 dwellings (of which 300 homes are shown in the GNLP documentation). In the light of this, the Town Council feels that site GNLP2108 South of Spirketts Lane, should not be considered at this time, given all the concerns mentioned above regarding infrastructure constraints and restricted employment opportunities.
Recommendation - Redenhall with Harleston Town Council do not support development of GNLP 2108 until the infrastructure concerns have been fully addressed and employment and commercial opportunities (POLICIES HAR 6 and HAR 7) (Appendix 3 and 4) are realised.
please find attached the report which was agreed by resolution by Harleston Town Council on March 11th 2020.
