Respondent: Gladman Developments

7.1 Question 40: Further Urban Area 7.1.1 Gladman supports the recognised need for housing delivery to be achieved on the edge of the main urban area of Norwich, with surrounding parishes within South Norfolk and Broadland accommodating this growth.
7.1.2 Policy 7.1 outlines the suggested housing growth directed to the urban area with large numbers attributed to strategic urban extensions at Taverham and within the growth triangle. Gladman would argue that the location identified as a contingency site at Costessey would also provide a logical location for residential growth within the plan period and should also be allocated for development through the GNLP and is actively promoting the site on behalf of the landowners
7.1.3 Furthermore, when taking the uncertainty surrounding some of the other location within the plan, namely the Carrow Works and well as the significant reliance placed on growth at the Growth Triangle, it seems logical that this alternative should be included in the Norwich urban area to ensure that the defined housing needs of the plan area are met at the most sustainable locations, and maintain a housing land supply throughout the plan period, given its deliverable nature.
