The Ipswich Strategic Planning Area

Representation ID: 26035

Received: 13/03/2019

Respondent: Sproughton Parish Council

Representation Summary:

The Council expresses concern for development along the B1113/A14/River Gipping Corridor because the Wild Man Junction in Sproughton is a pinch point that is already one of the most congested and polluted junctions in the county. This is a problem that transport and planning departments in all the local authorities appear to be ignoring with their heads in the sand.

DM3

Representation ID: 26036

Received: 13/03/2019

Respondent: Sproughton Parish Council

Representation Summary:

The new Air Quality Policy which aims to provide a "safer, greener, more cohesive town" aiming to reduce carbon emissions by providing better public transport, encouraging working at home, reducing the need to travel by car etc. would be implemented in this new Local Plan. The Council likes the sound of this policy and hopes that it is seen through the consultation period to help ease congestion and pollution in our village which is directly affected by the traffic coming in and out of Ipswich on a daily basis; it is hoped that Babergh also follow suit with this policy

Protection of the Environment

Representation ID: 26038

Received: 13/03/2019

Respondent: Sproughton Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Another policy which piqued the Council's interest is the development of a "RAMS Strategy" which could be used to avoid damage to areas of scientific interest when it comes to development. It is encouraging to see that Babergh District Council, IBC, MSDC and Suffolk Coastal DC have all signed a Statement of Common Ground when it comes to this strategy and hope that this will also be used to assess sites in more detail in rural areas such as our Parish.

Scale and location of growth

Representation ID: 26040

Received: 13/03/2019

Respondent: Sproughton Parish Council

Representation Summary:

The Council has concerns about overdevelopment of our Parish which, although adjacent to Ipswich, remains a rural village with a significant number of listed historic buildings that have a sense of place set within the countryside that surrounds Sproughton. This farmland based countryside is in itself historic being South of the Gipping divide it forms the North East corner of the more fertile land that is recognised as having the earliest history of agricultural development in the area. It has a local Special Landscape designation which is entirely appropriate with its history, visual value and mix of Landscape Character Types.

CS16

Representation ID: 26041

Received: 13/03/2019

Respondent: Sproughton Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Your recognition of the ecological importance of Chantry Park and the Gipping Valley is important to the Parish Council. Especially the link between the two through Chantry Vale where the local residents frequently see the movements of animals between the two areas... and it is hoped that IBC will recognise the importance of maintaining a realistic wildlife link between the Gipping Valley and Chantry Park thought Chantry Vale, and the retention of the best of the Vale for its recreational/landscape value should any of this land come forward for development in the future.

Chapter 4 - The Duty to Co-operate

Representation ID: 26042

Received: 13/03/2019

Respondent: Sproughton Parish Council

Representation Summary:

The Parish notes that the Council (IBC) is working closely with Babergh/Mid Suffolk and Suffolk Coastal. The Parish Council considers it is important that you continue to work closely with them due to the fact that this village is only just outside of Ipswich and any significant decisions made will have a huge impact on this community.
