Representation Summary:

SITES 0487 AND 0493. I am the landowner of the above sites. Lanpro has submitted the sites on behalf of a client stating he is the sole owner, a property promoter/developer and the sites are available immediately. This was done without my knowledge or authority I want these withdrawn. For three weeks I have attempted to resolve this apparent deception with the NCC but to no avail. I've had no response from Lanpro. My legal right as landowner has been completely ignored by Lanpro and NCC. These sites have no relevance within the GNLP and should have been removed.

Respondent: Lanpro Services Ltd

Representation Summary:

This site could deliver circa. 85 dwellings. Furthermore, it could enable delivery of 6ha of additional green infrastructure to extend the new Salhouse Country Park to the north of Norwich Road.
This part of the Norwich Policy Area is particularly sensitive due to the proximity of The Broads. The new Country Park proposed is sufficiently large to be a realistic alternative to visiting The Broads. As such the mixed‐use scheme proposed is highly sustainable as it will deliver net environmental gains for nature and improve public health and community wellbeing within the Growth Triangle area.

Executive Summary
This large site on land to the south of Norwich Road, Salhouse is being promoted as a strategic housing site delivering circa. 85 dwellings. The site has been previously promoted through the emerging Greater Norwich Local Plan and assigned the reference GNLP0491. [sic. Email confirmed this relates to GNLP0493]. The promoted scheme is further designed to enable delivery of 6ha of additional green infrastructure to extend the new Salhouse Country Park to the north of Norwich Road to meet existing green infrastructure deficiencies in this part of the Norwich Policy Area.
The site is located on the northern edge of the Growth Triangle that is main focus for new housing growth within the Broadland District part of the Norwich Policy Area. This part of the Norwich Policy Area is particularly sensitive due to the proximity of The Broads. Specific parts of The Broads within this part of the Norwich Policy Area are designated Site of Special Scientific Interest, Special Protection Area, Environmentally Sensitive Area, National Nature Reserve and Ramsar.
The new Country Park proposed is sufficiently large and can be made attractive for recreation and leisure to be a realistic alternative to visiting The Broads.
As such the mixed‐use scheme proposed is highly sustainable as it will deliver net environmental gains for nature and improve public health and community wellbeing within the Growth Triangle area.

Respondent: Salhouse Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Development of this site as shown would be 'ribbon development'. It involves the infilling of the
green space that exists between the two villages of Salhouse and Rackheath, contrary to previous
policy that has stated that this should be retained. The high pressure gas main crosses this site,
rendering a large part of it undevelopable.
Does not comply with policy H1 of Salhouse Neighbourhood Plan

Salhouse PC previously submitted comments on the sites put forward in the 2016 'Call for Sites' consultation. These comments submitted in January 2017 still stand and are attached for reference.

Two changes have occurred since early 2017. First, our previous comments included references to the Draft Salhouse Neighbourhood Plan, which was subsequently adopted in July 2017. Second, since March 2018, the land supply in Broadland District has been calculated at more than 5 years.

Salhouse PC believes that the 'Call for Sites' process is fundamentally flawed, in that it encourages opportunistic offers of sites instead of being plan-led. A further local concern is that the services infrastructure (particularly mains water and electricity and sewerage) in Salhouse is in a very poor state. No additional housing development should be considered without these services being completely upgraded to meet the extra demand.

Although there are no new sites listed for the Parish of Salhouse in the latest 2018 submissions, there are sites in adjacent parishes which approach very closely to Salhouse's boundaries, raising the prospect of continuous housing from Norwich to Salhouse is all the options were taken up.

See attachment for full details of submission.
