Draft Greater Norwich Local Plan – Part 1 The Strategy

Representation ID: 22382

Received: 16/03/2020

Respondent: Norwich Green Party

Representation Summary:

Delivery: exclude 'delivery' as factor to weigh against objectives in the interim sustainability appraisal. EG 'delivery' skews distribution of housing allocations in favour of dispersal options. Delivery is not an objective in the SA and should be disregarded for purpose of weighing up policies on sustainability grounds.

Para 83, per capita emissions underestimate carbon emission levels as they exclude, consumption, production, aviation, shipping and hence and hence reductions necessary is under-stated.

Para 84 needs to explain implications of hotter drier summers and warmer wetter winters for region and policy making. Need to refer to sea level rise, rise in river levels and possible implications for Norwich area.
