Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

The Futura Park sites lies within 200m of the boundary of the Suffolk Coast & Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and therefore lies within the setting of the nationally designated landscape. Whilst we acknowledge that much of this site is already built out and is physically separated from the AONB by the A1189, any future development especially site IP141a should be supported by an assessment of impacts on the Natural Beauty of the AONB. The need for such an assessment should be reflected in the policy text for this site.

Change suggested by respondent:

The need for an assessment of the AONB should be reflected in the policy text for site.
