South Norfolk Council has launched another Consultation inviting comments on its proposed Addendum documents (Reg. 19). There are four sites included for Spooner Row: VC SPO1 (Bunwell Rd); VC SPO2 (Station Rd); VC SPO3 (School Lane); VC SPO4 (Chapel Rd). You will need to scroll through quite a lot of material but the main part on Spooner Row can be found here:  https://southnorfolkandbroadland.oc2.uk/document/19/3358#topofdoc

Visit SNC's website for more information: https://www.southnorfolkandbroadland.gov.uk/vchap

 

Letter from South Norfolk Council:  

Dear Sir/Madam,
 
The South Norfolk Village Clusters Housing Allocations Plan (VCHAP) Regulation 19 Pre-submission Addendum will be published between 9am on Monday 12 August and 5pm on Monday 7 October 2024, in accordance with Regulation 19 of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012. Representations are invited on the legal compliance and soundness of the Plan. Any representations submitted must be received by South Norfolk Council within this timeframe.

The purpose of the VCHAP is to deliver growth that will support the vitality of the rural communities of South Norfolk. Following the Regulation 19 Publication in 2023 one of the proposed sites was no longer considered deliverable and another needed to be reduced in scale, which led to a shortfall in the overall target number of new homes (minimum of 1,200).

The proposed Addendum includes the additional and amended sites proposed for allocation within the VCHAP to address this shortfall. The document also includes a number of other focused changes to the proposed VCHAP. The published document only deals with the changes that are being proposed to the Regulation 19 VCHAP document that was published in 2023. 

During the publication period, the proposed Addendum will be available to view at the following locations:

  • Online - on the South Norfolk Council website
  • South Norfolk Council offices - The Horizon Centre, Broadland Business Park, Peachman Way, Norwich, NR7 0WF (open Monday to Friday 9am - 5pm)
  • The Octagon - Mere Street, Diss, Norfolk, IP22 4AH (open Monday to Friday 9am - 5pm)
  • Libraries in South Norfolk - visit the Norfolk County Council website for details of your local branch
  • Millennium Library - The Forum, Millennium Plain, Norwich NR2 1AW (open Monday to Friday 10am - 7pm, Saturday 9am - 5pm, Sunday 10:30am - 4:30pm)

Supporting documents are also available to view online at the above locations. Further information and background material will also be available through a 'virtual exhibition' which can be accessed during the publication period.

Anyone wishing to submit a formal representation on the content of the Plan may do so, in writing, before 5pm on 7 October 2024. It can be submitted online via the website listed above, or using one of our hard copy representation forms which are available at the locations listed above. This will help ensure that submitted representations are in the prescribed format and can be taken into account in the examination of the Plan. Completed hard copy forms should be posted to the South Norfolk Council office address listed above.

For further information and enquiries, please contact the Council’s Place Shaping Team on 01508 533805 or at localplan.snc@southnorfolkandbroadland.gov.uk.

It’s bordering on criminal how these decisions can be made. The planners really have no idea what chaos they create. 
the assessments and studies regarding traffic and flooding are vastly understated. These small estates will ruin the feel of our village. The access on Station road will cause chaos and will be dangerous. Accidents are going to happen here.  There will be flooding- it will happen - especially around the Queens Street area and those affected will lose up to half the value of their property - this  has already  happened to residents of Attleborough . Lessons as usual are not learned . The studies were inaccurate. but this helps to get schemes passed . Gobsmacked that people who live nowhere near the village can make decisions that can seriously affect others lives and just move on to  the next .   It’s unlikely that appealing this will have much effect as these plans are probably already rubber stampEd. But I will anyway.

The Bunwell Road/Queen Street site has gone from 15 dwellings to 35.

Most people know that Spooner Row has several areas prone to flooding including this location where the highway was badly flooded last autumn. Why has the development increased?

This Local Plan Addendum Consultation has recently closed. The Submissions for Spooner Row are: VC SPO1 Bunwell Road - 2 Supports and 1 Objection; VC SPO2 Station Road - 2 Supports;  VC SPO3 School Lane and VC SPO4 Chapel Road - 0 Submissions listed. I am disappointed, but not surprised, that my Objection to VC SPO3 School Lane was not included on the SNC website for what I consider to be spurious reasons. I've had an email exchange with SNC regarding this. Apparently, my Submission will be presented to the Inspectorate but not presented on the SNC website. Bearing in mind that what is adopted for the Local Plan becomes Policy and Policy has statutory requirements for the Council.

Here is my Submission (Objection):

Representation Summary:

This Addendum Consultation does not address the significant safety issues that impact this site under adopted SNCLP Policy SP02 and VCSP03. To provide:


- A sustainable urban drainage system ensuring no surface water drains off the site (there are existing flood issues).
- A pedestrian refuge/footpath to the school (this cannot be met as insufficient road width).

Objections submitted include the S.Row Community Council, and concerns from the NCC Strategic Planning Team with inadequate scope for highway improvements. It doesn’t wish to support re-allocation of the site and requests that VC SP03 is removed from the draft Local Plan.

Change to plan:

To take seriously the concerns and requests of the Objectors. There are also issues of accountability.

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Complies with the duty to cooperate? No
