SCDC supports the principle of increasing open spaces and ensuring they complement development proposals, but objects to the green rim which crosses the Ipswich administrative boundary. It could have significant policy implications for the Council's site allocations work. Locations bordering Ipswich are broadly considered sustainable due to proximity to services, infrastructure and facilities. Allocating parts as green rim is likely to cause future conflict between protecting green field sites and potential allocation of land through Suffolk Coastal's Local Plan. The Council has concerns about implementing this policy and future management arrangements for these areas.

Support the definiton of Ransomes Europark as an employment area through DM36. It is an established employment area and provides important opportunities for Ipswich and Suffolk Coastal residents. This cross boundary opportunity is reflected within the Suffolk Coastal DC Core Strategy.
