Respondent: Mulbarton Parish Council

A real strength in the JCS was its inclusion of a Norwich Policy Area and Rural Policy Areas, and therefore MPC are very disappointed that this distinction has been abolished and the impact this would have on the village.

MPC has serious misgivings about the separation of sites and allocations for new housing in the “village clusters” that will be allocated a ‘minimum’ of 1,200 houses, rather than giving a maximum number which concerns the residents of Mulbarton who have already seen wholesale development of their village in the last decade.

The claim that providing new housing in such locations will support services have proved in Mulbarton to be untrue with little increase in services and has led to increased transport with the knock on effect for climate change.
