Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

GNLP2104

Representation ID: 22740

Received: 16/03/2020

Respondent: Clarke and Simpson

Number of people: 2

Representation Summary:

I write further to your information briefing at the Corn Hall in Diss.

I write on behalf of Mr & Mrs T W Havers in connection with site reference GNLP2104 and GNLP0606. My clients are the owners of the submitted sites.

I note that this has been dismissed as ‘this site is not considered to be suitable for allocation because if it was developed in its entirety it would be too large for the scale of development needed in Diss’.

I note there are concerns about achieving satisfactory vehicle and pedestrian access on a smaller sized development in the south of the site.

This is a site which is suitable for development due to its instant deliverability. The land is currently an agricultural field.

The south of the field does have a good vehicular access. Factory Lane to the east is a two way public highway with footpaths which continue until the south east corner of the proposed development site. The development has sufficient space for a new entrance for the widening of the road. It is understood that the current regulations require a width of 5.5m for a residential road which can be provided on this section of Factory Lane and widening into the site area will be possible if required.

It is not anticipated that the whole site would be developed and would not be required at this stage for Diss and it is agreed the site in its entirety is too large. However, any presentation of a larger site for Greater Norwich Local Plan consideration must demonstrate deliverability and flexibility. This proposed site is flexible in size and development and the options for open space that could be provided.

It is questionable that the timeframe for delivery of GNLP0102 can practically take place as a whole and therefore unlikely that 200 homes would be achievable.

There is a limit on the number of open spaces within the town of Diss and it is understood town greatly values the open space existing currently in GNLP0341. A development of this site would restrict the open space and green area which is vital for the health and well being of residents, particularly in built up town areas.

Therefore can you please reconsider the partial allocation of GNLP2104 or GNLP0606. The land to the south can comfortably accommodate 200 units or greater or less if required with 33% affordable and open space in addition to leisure facilities if required.
