Representation Summary:

Whilst strongly support residential allocation for land at Humber Doucy Lane, seeking relatively minor amendments to detailed wording which is considered neither justified nor effective and therefore not sound. This will ensure no unnecessary delays to delivery of development. As currently written, the Plan identifies the land for "future" development and states that it will be "appropriately phased" with Garden Suburb and associated infrastructure. Amend to provide greater clarity regarding required infrastructure. Plan should not make generic references to "future" development or refer to requirement for phasing without appropriate evidence/details. Wording of paragraph 6.17 should be amended to reflect this.

Change suggested by respondent:

Paragraph 6.17 should be amended to read:
"....A cross-border allocation for development (within Ipswich Borough and Suffolk Coastal Local Plan area) for housing delivery, is also identified in north-east Ipswich at the northern end of Humber Doucy Lane and Tuddenham Road..."
