The Chairman, William Nunn explained that this document had been put together by Capita Symonds Planning Policy Team which incorporated the findings of the eight meetings of the LDF Task & Finish Group and the views of the Towns and Parish Councils.
The joint meeting sought Members’ endorsement for the document to be published for a six week consultation period starting towards the end of May 2010. Following the consultation, the Preferred Options document would then be brought back to Cabinet for formal approval. A final document would be submitted for a further period of public consultation in October 2010, prior to proceeding to Public Examination.
The Chairman felt that the document was very clear and concise. Members were not therefore being asked to go through every map and report page by page as this work had already been completed by the Task & Finish Group.
Members were provided with a presentation highlighting the key points contained in the document (presentation attached).
Officers from the Planning Policy Team were introduced and were in attendance to make their presentations and answer questions.
The Principal Planning Policy Officer provided the meeting with a brief background to the process which covered 108 rural parishes and three market towns. The remaining towns, Attleborough and Thetford would be discussed and addressed through Area Action Plans.
The background information, issues and options were as fully set out in paragraph 3 of the report.
A range of reasonable alternative options had been considered for housing and employment and these had been presented in the document at Appendix A. Officers had advised that there was a reasonable prospect that these allocations could come forward and as a result should be consulted on in the preferred options stage.
The draft Sustainability Appraisal report (Appendix C) which was a large 300+ page document was available for Members to view at the meeting if they so wished.
1. DEREHAM
In terms of housing, the preferred allocations for new housing in Dereham comprised three sites all allocated to the east of the town along Norwich Road.

The preferred sites for employment development were at Rash’s Green and land at Dereham Business Park, adjacent to the Breckland Council building (ref: D4 and D5).
Reference D12 – Georges Road/Nunn’s Way to Cowper Road was land that had been identified as an area of search that could accommodate a balance of around 5,000m2 retail allocation.
Reference D15 – land east of Dereham Town Football Club was identified as open space for a new cemetery.
The preferred options were endorsed as recommended.
Referring to the alternative sites, revised options were presented, the first being at Dumpling Green and the second off Draytonhall Lane, Scarning (site reference D.7R and D.8R). It was agreed that site D.7R should remain as a reasonable alternative option and site D.8R be excluded from the document as it was considered unreasonable ... view the full minutes text for item 41.
