  • GREATER NORWICH DEVELOPMENT PARTNERSHIP TECHNICAL CONSULTATION FULL REPORT (Final Draft)
    GREATER NORWICH DEVELOPMENT PARTNERSHIP TECHNICAL CONSULTATION FULL REPORT (Final draft) Prepared for Greater Norwich Development Partnership Thorpe Lodge, Yarmouth Road Thorpe St Andrew Norwich NR7 0DU Prepared by: Michael Mackman BA (Hons), MMRS, FCIM, Chartered Marketer 14 November 2008 Greater Norwich Development Partnership – Joint Core Strategy Consultation P08872 14 November 2008 Page 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Obviously, the evaluation of the comments on the GNDP Regulation 25 consultation is a matter for the Partnership. However, it may be helpful to draw out some common and recurring themes. There are many expressions of concern about the effects of further development on key local infrastructure. These include (but are not exclusively) water and sewerage, health services, transportation/ roads, community facilities and infrastructure, education, policing and the environment (including impacts on SSSIs, nature reserves and green spaces). Many respondents express views to the effect that local resources are at capacity or above, and that further development must bring with it benefits to support new populations, wherever housed. There are particular concerns in some rural communities, although some also welcome controlled development as a means of assuring or enhancing local services, and request a higher development “status” or the development of specific sites. Others are concerned about “knock on” effects on local infrastructure, including roads, local schools and so on. This is coupled with concerns about sustainability, the desirability of “green infrastructure” and about ensuring that new development has the minimum carbon footprint. There are also suggestions about measures to improve the carbon footprint of existing developments, for example, through renewables technology. Unsurprisingly, these concerns are balanced by suggestions from agents, landowners, developers and businesses suggesting the desirability of additional development, or the development of specific sites.

  • Lowland Heathland and Dry Acid Grassland
    NORFOLK BIODIVERSITY ACTION PLAN Ref 1/H6 Tranche 1 Habitat Action Plan 6 Plan Author: Norfolk County Council LOWLAND HEATHLAND AND DRY ACID Plan Co-ordinator: Heathland BAP Topic GRASSLAND Group The UK BAP identifies heathland as consisting Plan Leader: Norfolk County of “an ericaceous layer of varying heights and Council structures, some areas of scattered trees and Date: Stage: scrub, areas of bare ground, gorse, wet heaths, 31 December 1998 Version 1 bogs and open water”. In Norfolk, heathland is April 2004 Version 2 much more of a mosaic, with acid grassland and 17 November 2011 Version 3 bracken often being significant elements. Even more distinctive are the heaths of the Brecks which include chalk grassland and little or no heather. In East Anglia, the typical lowland acid grassland community is NVC U1, comprising sheep’s-fescue Festuca ovina, common bent Agrostis capillaris and sheep’s sorrel Rumex acetosella. Other species may include wavy hair-grass Deschampsia flexuosa, heath bedstraw Galium saxatile and tormentil Potentilla erecta. 1., CURRENT STATUS National Status In England, only a sixth of the heathland present in 1800 now remains. The UK has about 95,000 ha of lowland heathland (58,000 ha of which are in England) representing about 20% of the international total of this habitat. As with other lowland semi-natural grassland types, acid grassland underwent substantial declines in the 20th century. Although there are no figures available on the current rate of loss, it is thought to be slowing. The decline is primarily the result of under-management, specifically under-grazing and abandonment.
