When identifying potential land for development, consideration should be given to the role open space plays to the development of healthy communities and preventative care.

Too little. This is evidenced by the deficit to standards across Ipswich in many categories.

There isn't enough open space in the borough and this is a direct consequence of boundary constraints which are not fit for the 20th century (not a typo!) and must be expanded.

In making decisions relating to open space and biodiversity, IBC should be mindful of the importance of open space and the natural environment to public health, the historic environment and the economy. Factors cited by companies in favour of investing in Suffolk and Norfolk include the area's quality of life and its environment. Our natural environment plays a huge part in the quality of life here and in our existing and future competitiveness. The Local Plan offers an opportunity - even in an urban area like Ipswich - to incorporate measures for enhancement of the natural environment into new development.
