Comment that the SPD needs to recognise the importance of and complexities for delivering off-site waste water recycling facility

SPD focusses on the spatial dimensions of development and infrastructure delivery. Also necessary to recognise importance of off-site utility infrastructure, especially waste water and complexities in planning and delivering new facilities.

Major new waste water infrastructure will be required once limited capacity in existing works on Bannold Drove is taken up. SPD plans removal of existing, but makes no firm commitment for replacement nor timing in relation to phasing of housing development.

Infrastructure Delivery Plan partially address. However, only refers to need for replacement facility to be delivered off site by Anglian Water. Needs to be recognition of the implications for housing delivery whilst this off-site infrastructure is in planning and delivery stage.
