Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

Representation ID: 19977

Received: 18/02/2020

Respondent: Action for Harleston

Representation Summary:

Harleston, is now, a medium sized market town. There has been substantial building in the area raising the number of residents markedly, beyond the infrastructures ability to cope.
However, the infrastructure has not kept pace with the increase in residents.
We have multiple problems relating to transport, drainage, schools, sewerage and employment opportunities, and medical facilities.
Each of the new estates seems to have been only considered in isolation. Nowhere, has anyone carried out a major Cumulative Impact study, so all the changes that have happened so far, can be evaluated before further building is undertaken.

In response to your call for responses, the trustees of Harleston Relief in Need Charity state that:

1. We are in the final stages of negotiations with the neighbouring land owners to develop both parcels of land as one development.
2. The current draft local plan includes access to our land from Willow Walk. The combined development is not intended to include more than 95 dwellings. Following consultation with members of South Norfolk District Council’s planning department we believe that no access is necessary from Willow Walk, vehicular or pedestrian.

Respondent: Durrants

Representation Summary:

We have been working on submissions through the Reg 18 process under the GNLP. We wish South Norfolk to know however that considerable work has been undertaken in relation to the existing above allocation for 95 houses and to include a pre-application enquiry, infiltration testing, surface water potential scheme design and investigation of utilities with particular reference to foul drainage. The private land owners and the Seymour Charity are working in collaboration and wish to reiterate their joint intention to bring this land to market in the near future. Our clients would be happy to answer any questions in relation to this project.
