Respondent: Mr Christopher Wrathall

Representation Summary:

There is certainly a need for greater economic growth across the Ipswich HMA. Careful intelligent planning of new infrastructures could permit growth that would fulfil social goals and mitigate damage to the environment.

Respondent: Mr Andrew Hunter

Representation Summary:

It would depend on the type of infrastructure offered as an incentive to the community. If landowners wish to realise the value of their land for housing development, they need to bear in mind the wishes of the community and what benefits can be provided to that community under the current development model. In other words the land should be made available to developers at a fair and reasonable price that ensures the delivery of planning gain to the community that 'suffers' the impact arising out of new development in their area.

Representation Summary:

Yes, although having only lived in Ipswich for 6 years, the development to the north of the town seems to be limited. Ipswich is very wide in comparison to other towns. This does not help in making the whole town accessible. Go north, put the infrastructure in and build the northern route.

Received: 14/10/2017

Respondent: East Suffolk Travellers Association

Representation Summary:

Communities are more likely to accept significant new growth if it means that significant new infrastructure will also be provided. In fact, pressure for growth will be inevitable. By planning for growth and identifying the infrastructure that this requires, the local authority is in a stronger position to bid for infrastructure funding from central government. The document accepts that capacity on local rail lines is already an issue. Further development can and should lead to improvements in infrastructure.

Representation Summary:

As stated above the exact nature and scale of mitigation required to meet augmented needs of proposed developments will be calculated at an appropriate time, as and when schemes come forward over the plan period to realise the objectives of the LP.
Comments on the growth scenarios and options set out in the LPR are shown below:
We would suggest that one of the key priorities of this document should be ensuring sustainable primary care provision for communities both existing and proposed.
NHS England and the CCG would welcome further discussions with the Local Authorities with regard to density of development and cumulative growth over the plan period within specific areas, to understand the impact and how this may be mitigated.

Representation ID: 24960

Received: 25/10/2017

Respondent: Northern Fringe Protection Group

Representation Summary:

No. Communities will not accept higher growth targets until such improvements are delivered and are shown to be effective. There are already sizeable new housing developments planned in and around Ipswich. Higher targets should not be set until there is robust evidence that infrastructure can cope with the current planned expansion. E.g. there is major concern on how the road network will cope with the Ipswich Garden Suburb development and the impacts of this need to be monitored and appraised as it is built out before setting higher targets. There are also concerns over sewage and fresh water infrastructure.

Respondent: Railfuture East Anglia

Representation Summary:

Growth pressure will be inevitable whether people are willing for it to happen or not. By planning for growth and identifying the infrastructure it requires places the local authority in a stronger position when it comes to bidding for infrastructure projects from central government.

Respondent: Conservative Group

Representation Summary:

Invariably communities are resistant to new development for obvious reasons, but this can be, and must be, mitigated by enhanced infrastructure. Too often we see developments being granted planning permission without the proper infrastructure in place which leads to increased objections from the residents. This is currently happening with several community groups complaining about lack of sufficient roads, drainage and sewers within the Ipswich Garden Suburb development.

Respondent: Ipswich Limited

Representation Summary:

Not at all. No one wants new homes, commercial property, power stations, roads or incinerators built near them. This quirk is also evident in those living in new builds, not just property that is well established or those who have lived in the area for generations.
