Greater Norwich Local Plan Gypsy and Traveller Sites Focused Consultation

Representation ID: 24713

Received: 02/03/2023

Respondent: Mr Mark Allison

Representation Summary:

GNLP5009 Bawburgh. This 'favoured' site is clearly far less favourable than some of the sites deemed 'unreasonable'. Where is the common sense??. To consider a site at the end of a residential cul-de-sac, close to a primary school, on top of a gas main, alongside a conservation area, with zero local amenities and very narrow access is ludicrous. The Bawburgh site is only 'favoured' because the landowner will gift it to the council in return for positive consideration of other development opportunities. There is a perfectly adequate existing site next to the park&ride on Long Lane in Bawburgh.
