We urge the Council to focus first on brownfield development in Ipswich rather than on greenfield sites like the Northern Fringe. Focusing on brownfield will help to regenerate the town centre and waterfront. If there is to be a Northern Fringe development at all, then all the land should not be allocated now as this will deter urgently needed brownfield development. We recognise that brownfield development poses more issues for developers and thus is potentially less profitable and attractive for them so the Council's approach needs to address this issue.
