Legally compliant? Not specified

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

We do not believe that the full proposed expansion of the town centre retail development is required or sustainable and that this land could be better used for new homes. Question the need to allocate part of the Westgate site and the Mint Quarter for retail. We have always argued that Ipswich Borough Council has been over-estimating retail demand (as with previous undeliverable homes and employment targets).
