Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

Representation ID: 20923

Received: 13/03/2020

Respondent: Mr Graham Buckley

Representation Summary:

(Changed from object to support as respondent is actually supporting the categorisation of the site as unreasonable in the GNLP)

I support the draft plan’s conclusion, however reasons extend beyond lack of access to Horsford Primary School.

Felthorpe has poor access to services with shops, schools and doctors over two miles away. It has limited employment, poor connectivity, poor infrastructure (no gas, street lights, narrow pavements and sewage capacity problems) so the village is unsuitable for development.

The site itself is likely unviable, suffering from poor site access and links to the main village. It may also impact on nearby SSSI, local archaeology and suffer from surface water flooding.
