Representation Summary:

I have lived in Prince Andrews Road for 53 years. If GNLP1021 is passed then we, in Hellesdon, will have much needed recreational space, particularly on the east side of Cromer Road - where we would have absolutely nothing if GNLP2173 is preferred. In effect, we are asking for a very minute number of houses (max 50) to be removed from your Local Plan with your rejection of GNLP2173. How about you doing the right thing by placing residents' well-being in front of this unreasonable development where we can expect up to 100 extra vehicles negotiating side streets.

(Representation changed from object to support as respondent appears to support the use of site for public recreation as proposed under site GNLP1021)
Hellesdon is a growing parish. A consequence of an increasing population is the need, and demand, for green spaces to which the public has access for recreation and leisure pursuits. Hellesdon already suffers from a shortage of such green spaces. The land in question was used for many years for recreation purposes. Since its closure to the public about 3 years ago, the public has been deprived of one of a diminishing number of green spaces in this part of Hellesdon. I urge Jarrolds, site owner, to rethink their plans and preserve the entirety of this plot to public access.

(Comment changed from object to support as respondent seems to be objecting to additional housing on site rather then this proposal for leisure/recreation)
Firstly I appreciate the need for extra housing. That said, financial gain must not be allowed over common sense as in this case, to build in such a place as proposed.
Since the opening of the NDR, traffic has increased significantly with traffic backing up from the ring road making Heath Crescent difficult to depart from.
The proposed entrance is desperate measure in my opinion as they cannot see an alternative.
I am totally against this proposal, with the extra traffic resulting from additional housing ,extra strain put on local resources and more loss of green area.

The Jarrolds plan is a very dangerous one and should not be given the go ahead.
1. The proposed exit from the site into Prince Andrews Road will be in between two blind corners, a right angle bend into Heath Crescent and a double bend with a further exit to a cul de sac in prince Andrews Road.
2. Building 30-50 houses will need heavy construction vehicle going in and out of the site from narrow roads with two dangerous blind junctions.
3. This plan does not take into account the requirements of the local residents.
4. The proposed plan GNLP1021 submitted by Hellesdon Parish Council should be adopted as it will provide green space and facilities badly needed for this area of Hellesdon residents.

I think this needs to be used as land for the community. There isn't a park or any green areas to play on this side of the Cromer road. Along with this Fifers Lane already struggles to cope with the amount of traffic using it and by putting more homes there and then more traffic you are just increasing the chance of accident when trying to pull out on an already busy road. Hellesdon doesn't need more houses and this land should be for the local residents to use and enjoy. With two young children this green space is definitely needed in the area.

All we keep hearing is people need to get out, get fit, relax to help the strain of mental health, so there is no need at all to put more pressure on traffic and people already in an area that is full to capacity.

Broadland’s own policies on formal recreation space and green infrastructure (Recreation Provision in Residential Development SPD) show that Hellesdon has only about 50% of the amount it should have. The Parish Council plans include formal and informal uses, as such this should clearly be supported. Furthermore this is the right plan in the right place, there are no green spaces east of the Cromer Road and there is a need for play equipment in this quadrant of Hellesdon. Currently children and young families have to cross the busy road Cromer Road on foot or must Drive - more CO2!

I write in support of the Hellesdon Parish Council's resolution to provide greater green space, particularly in the area between Cromer Rd and Fifers Lane.

In the future, if the status quo remains, my family's choices for local recreational ground would necessitate the crossing of a busy main road. This is bizarre considering this piece of land existing a stone's throw from my home.

I can understand Jarrolds' desire to profit from their ownership of this land by developing it. However, the benefit to the community of making this a public open space, particularly given the extent to which Hellesdon is being developed in terms of housing, should not be forgotten.

I hope that opportunities will be explored to allow this land to be used for the benefit of the community and generations to come.

Hellesdon has the blight of 1000 new houses on the old Norwich Royal Golf course site, which does not allow sufficient green site space for current residents of Hellesdon let alone another 1000 new families.

I do not believe Hellesdon can support any further housing development, on its roads, using its already over busy Doctor's surgery, and other amenities.

What we lack in Hellesdon is green recreational space.

I would like to support Hellesdon Parish Council in their bid for the old Jarrolds site to be used as additional recreational green space in Hellesdon.

We are all aware of the importance and value to our general health and well being that green spaces provides, for children, walkers and joggers, dog walkers, etc.

We have an inordinate number of new houses being built, but insufficient green space. Once this space has been filled with houses it is lost forever to people and wildlife. I fully support Hellesdon Parish Council in their application to use this space as green space. We do not need any further new housing developments in Hellesdon.

Having viewed the proposed plans for the Heath Crescent development I am totally against the Jarrolds proposition of between 35-50 houses: My main concern is the extra 100 cars trying to get to their place of work daily, the roads cannot deal with this & the pollution to the air will be horrendous. We already have enough traffic around this area due to the industrial sites. As well as this there are no green areas this side of the Cromer Road & the Parish councils proposed use of the site would be fantastic for families & dog walkers. We've lived here 33 years & I used to enjoy hearing the boys playing football on this site, much nicer to hear people having a good time than hearing 100 more cars going about their business.
The better option for anyone living near to this site is the green space but the greed of the owners of the land & the money making opportunity of the developers will probably outweigh the thoughtfulness to provide existing residents with a much nicer place to live.
One final thought is that by developing this site to houses would be a detriment to local wildlife & would also add to the flood risk as the rain will have nowhere to go as we are now realising as the country becomes a concrete jungle.

I really don't think adding more houses to this area is appropriate for the welfare and sate of Hellesdon. Schools, doctors and dentists etc are already overcrowded and difficult to get in to. Traffic congestion added to this area would also be unfair to the local residents, who also have to contend with people parking in the area to use schools, shops and the airport.
The best use of this land would be to open as recreational ground and to make it a community area, where there can be play areas, make use of the pavilion, contact organisations who can rent for events such as fitness classes and parties etc. There isn't a park on that side of the Cromer Road for children to use or for people to walk their dogs. At the very least give it a go at this first. I am sure it would be a welcome addition and keep the area green, even use some of the land to plant new tress for wildlife etc.
The tennis courts could be rented out to generate revenue as the pavilion.
You only have to look at the likes of Eaton park to see what can be done, but this side of the city.

I feel most strongly we should protect as much of our green open spaces as possible so I am asking for the former Jarrold social & recreational site to remain a green open space.
Hellesdon is already well developed with enough housing, we need to protect our green open spaces for the sake of the limited wildlife in the area & for the well being of local residents.
We Do Not need more housing on the former Jarrold site.

Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

Representation ID: 20571

Received: 10/03/2020

Respondent: Mrs Tracey CORNWELL

Representation Summary:

There are very few parks and very little green space in and around Hellesdon. This site would be perfect to be turned into green space for leisure use for residents to enjoy, further enhancing the quiet area of Prince Andrews Road and surrounding roads.

Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

Respondent: Miss Claire Hall

Representation Summary:

This is just what Hellesdon needs, a bit more green open space for everyone including sports and everyday use for young and old people. This is also in the right place are no green spaces east of Cromer road and people living here have a long way to go to walk to a local park. I fully support the Parish Councils Plans
