Respondent: Gladman Developments
Legally compliant? No
Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? No
In principle, Gladman has no objections to the allocation of a new settlement as outlined in the proposed policy wording. However, it is essential that the Council has considered all options available for development and it is essential that realistic delivery assumptions have been applied to the sites delivery. Ipswich Borough has not delivered any large sites comparable to the scale proposed for the Ipswich Garden Suburb. It is clear that realistic assumptions on the delivery of Ipswich Garden Suburb have not been applied.
Gladman assert that Ipswich Borough Council need to identify significantly more sites, which are realistically deliverable and viable to support the currently identified housing supply.
