The green rim designation has no clear purpose or evidence base to support it- it appear in part to be justified in relation to connecting ecological/ natural and semi-natural green space ( although without any clear explanation as to why this is necessary). In a context where the plan is failing to both meet objectively assessed housing need and failing to make use of appropriate development opportunities within the Borough boundary the designation of a green rim is premature and prejudicial to the proper long-term planning of the area.

In order to meet the requirements of the Habitats Regulations, the Borough Council should liaise with Natural England to ensure that any recommended measures to avoid likely significant effects on the features of designated sites should be put in place. A further amendment is suggested to ensure Objective 6 is realised in relation to Rights of Way. Wording is suggested to add to the supporting text to CS16, to emphasise the role of the Public Rights of Way network as a major recreational resource, economic asset and means of promoting mental and physical health.

Policy CS16 should incorporate a strategic allocation to the Orwell Country Park, as provided under site allocations policy SP8, with clause (h) redrafted to provide flexibility in the way in which mitigation for impacts on European-designated conservation sites can be secured (and incorporating the provisions of clause (d)). The requirement for new development to contribute to the mitigation of existing deficiencies should be deleted. The function of both the proposed Ipswich Garden Suburb country park and the extension to the Orwell Country Park are the same.

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 than 2021 or not at all this will adversely impact on the integrity of a European site.

SOCS endorse the Northern Fringe Protection Group's points. 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.
