Representation Summary:

[For full submission refer to attached documentation- summary as follows]:
Our client's site, Land at North East Aylsham, represents an immediately available, deliverable and entirely sustainable location to deliver up to 300 dwellings along with supporting community uses, open space and improved access at the town.

We have demonstrated how all environmental and infrastructure constraints can be overcome on the site. Furthermore, it is now clear that the land is capable of delivering a level and form of development that directly meets the needs of Aylsham. The site represents the only opportunity of sufficient scale that can viably deliver both a significant contribution towards the housing needs of Aylsham and necessary key community infrastructure such as the proposed primary school.

[For full submission refer to attached documentation] - conclusions to that submission statement in support of the specific site promoted (GNLP0335) are as follows and should be read alongside the Growth Options responses:

[...] the Main Towns across the plan area should be required to deliver a minimum of 550 homes each over the plan period. Due to its strategic importance, as the only Main Town in the rural north of the plan area, Aylsham should be required to deliver at least 750 homes over the plan period.

[...]Our client's site, Land at North East Aylsham, represents an immediately available, deliverable and entirely sustainable location to deliver up to 300 dwellings along with supporting community uses, open space and improved access at the town.

This representation supplements the information submitted towards the 2016 Call for Sites exercises and demonstrates how all environmental and infrastructure constraints can be overcome on the site. Furthermore, and aided by an extensive scheme of engagement with all key local stakeholders, it is now clear that the land is capable of delivering a level and form of development that directly meets the needs of Aylsham.

It is clear that the site represents the only opportunity of sufficient scale at the town that can viably deliver both a significant contribution towards the housing needs of Aylsham alongside necessary key community infrastructure such as the proposed new primary school site.
