NHS England (NHSE) objects to the inclusion of the health centre required to serve the proposed Garden Suburb as an infrastructure item to serve the southern neighbourhood only.
The requirement for a new health centre is based on the overall growth to be accommodated within the Garden Suburb and, therefore, should be included as an item of strategic infrastructure.
The omission of the health centre from the list of strategic infrastructure to serve the Garden Suburb is not 'positively prepared', 'justified', 'effective' or 'consistent with national planning policy' and, therefore cannot be considered 'sound'.

Re: Country Park with joint visitor / community centre for Henley Gate. - Trigger point for delivery:
Henley Gate is the last of the 3 areas to be developed and so up to 2000 houses might be in place before a single tree is planted in the Country Park. This would put pressure on other existing greenspaces, including the Stour and Orwell Estuaries SPA. We think that a start should be made on the Country Park as soon as the first house is started in the first area.

Although some parts of the Country Park will undergo construction work during the development, e.g. for SUDS, it should be possible to make parts of the Country Park accessible to the public from Day 1. Community groups could also start planting trees, bushes, etc. from Day 1, provided that this was coordinated within an overall plan.

Table 8B refers to three 420-place primary schools. The County Council requires three 315-place primary schools as the minimum necessary resulting from the development. Experience of other large greenfield developments suggests that they generate greater demand for education places than existing housing. It is intended that land is provided such that the schools can be constructed with a larger (420-place) capacity, if monitoring of the number of children emanating from the development necessitates it. In the initial phases, the primary schools will not be constructed for more than 315 pupils each; this enables flexibility whilst meeting statutory requirements for proportionality.

CS10 is supported by Table 8B, which sets out the detailed infrastructure requirements and trigger points for their delivery. There is no evidence available to demonstrate how the triggers have been arrived [at], and whether they represent an "appropriate stage" for delivery. The policy and Table 8B do not currently have due regard to the need for a "comprehensive approach" to the development of IGS as a whole. There are no effective mechanisms in place to ensure the delivery of infrastructure, which will compromise the deliverability of IGS as a whole. See Appendix 1 of full submission for detailed comments.

Concern that the Country Park may not be delivered if only 499 homes are developed in Henley Gate or if only the other two parts of the Garden Suburb are developed. If the Country Park is delivered later that 2021 or not at all this will adversely impact on the integrity of a European site. The Core Strategy fails to identify and plan for key strategic wastewater infrastructure. There is the possibility that a major new pipeline will be needed from the Garden Suburb to Cliff Quay.

The provisions set out in Table 8B are not justified by detailed evidence and does not provide an effective basis for implementation of the Plan over its plan period. Strategic infrastructure headings should be identified alongside mechanisms for delivery of those items, with detailed information about triggers agreed through the determination of planning applications, in accordance with paragraph 177 of the NPPF.

It would appear that Ipswich Borough Council has omitted the necessary up-front details from the Core Strategy Plan as to how it intends to implement the infrastructure required for the development of the Ipswich Garden Suburb (Northern Fringe), including mitigation of impact due to:demands on clean water supply and demands on sewerage systems. The CS fails to properly assess development and infrastructure requirements including the cumulative effects on traffic, air pollution fresh water and wastewater. Freshwater and wastewater infrastructure needs to be objectively assessed and key infrastructure listed in the CS.
