Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations
Representation ID: 20092
Received: 25/02/2020
Respondent: Wymondham Town Council
The Town Councils Planning Lighting & Highways Committee has now considered the proposals relating to Wymondham and the plan for an additional 100 dwellings to be added to the existing allocation resulting in an overall commitment of 2563.
The proposed sites reference GNLP0354 at Johnson's Farm and GNLP3013 Land North of Tuttles Lane, each with an allocation of 50 dwellings are considered acceptable.
The Council is pleased that there is only a minimal additional proposed allocation of 100 homes in view of the significant number that already have approval and have not yet been built. Concern was however expressed that there could be a possible contingency of 1000 new dwellings and this seems excessive. The Council wishes to reserve the right to comment on any sites that are recommend(sic) if this contingency, or part thereof, is proposed in the final plan.

Access onto the already congested Tuttles Lane. Development is approved on the adjacent old rugby club land. Outside the settlement boundary. Again, what does "at least 50 houses" mean ? How many more houses may be accommodated? The development would encroach upon and erode the natural landscape across Tuttles Lane which should remain in tact. Development creep again. Lack of infrastructure - hospital, doctors, dentists, schools.

Access onto the already congested Tuttles Lane. Development is approved on the adjacent old rugby club land. Outside the settlement boundary. Is 50 houses the total housing on this site? The development would encroach upon and erode the natural landscape across Tuttles Lane which should remain in tact. Lack of infrastructure - hospital, doctors, dentists, schools.

Unlike other allocation policies there is no reference to water efficiency forming part of the design
Please also see comments relating to Policy 2 of the Sustainable Communities of the Strategy document.

Wymondham area site allocations
Site allocations around Wymondham (GNLP2168, GNLP0525R, GNLP3013, GNLP0006, GNLP0515, GNLP1055) are all in the headwaters of the River Tiffey and its tributaries, the land allocations are adjacent to the streams. The Tiffey is a chalk stream NERC s41 habitat of conservation importance. We are currently working on several projects to improve the River Tiffey to good WFD status e.g. fish passage and habitat restoration. The developments must not compromise this. There must be a buffer between developed land (including gardens) and the river of 20 metres. A WFD compliance assessment must be undertaken to assess the impacts on the water environment, including but not limited to water quality of run off. We would welcome partnership working opportunities from any development to improve riparian habitats via Broadland Catchment Partnership (NPPF 174).
