Draft Greater Norwich Local Plan – Part 1 The Strategy
Representation ID: 22521
Received: 16/03/2020
Respondent: Broadland Green Party
Para 241: Support the policy that “sets a general requirement for on-site affordable housing provision of 33%”. There is no point in relaxing this requirement to enable developers to realise their minimum allowable profit. Schemes must be developed, or national policy modified through LA lobbying, to ensure sufficient affordable homes for those who need it.
As stated in an earlier section: We support the view that the Cambridge - Norwich high tech link is potentially very positive: “we have very strong links and hope that a lot of biotech will continue”. However, regarding housing needs now and in the future wealthy people will always source housing but there is insufficient housing for the people who most need it to support the biotech sector: the technicians, veterinary nurses and innumerable support staff. Robust and well managed social housing schemes are the best way to provide this.
I attach the feedback from Broadland Green Party members on the GNLP Consultation.
Each section is identified but not all questions have been answered. However, all questions are included to maintain the numbering.
