Draft Greater Norwich Local Plan – Part 1 The Strategy

Question 46. Do you support or object or wish to comment on the approach for specific village clusters?

Representation ID: 21350

Received: 16/03/2020

Respondent: Reedham Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Reedham is a "VC" all on its own and therefore cannot share its housing allocation with other villages.
The proposed housing allocation in Reedham is based entirely on the current under-capacity of the primary school without any consideration for the other services in, or not in, the village, or the access roads to and from the village.
Neither proposed 'preferred' site in Reedham has safe access to the school or other facilities or services and therefore should be deemed 'unreasonable'.
Why are the "Village Clusters" in Broadland and South Norfolk not being consulted on at the same time.

Question 48. Do you support or object or wish to comment any other aspect of the draft plan not covered in other questions? This includes the appendices below. Please identify particular issues.

Received: 16/03/2020

Respondent: Reedham Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Why has there been a change in direction and policy towards the location of new housing development in the GNLP from the JCS? The NDR was constructed in order to cater for the new houses to be built on the northern fringes of Norwich so it does not make sense to now propose housing development away from this area.
Sites allocated in the JCS should be built out before any new sites allowed to be developed.
Why has phasing of all development not been included.
Increasing land available for development does not mean more houses will be built.
