Respondent: Mr Colin Perry

Representation Summary:

PO3 sates that 'new housing and employment must be built close to existing services and facilities so that people do not have to travel far to get to schools, shops, leisure facilities and workplaces'.
Norton Lindsey does not have sufficient existing services and facilities to meet this requirement; there is only a small village primary school (which is already fully subscribed) and one public house in the village. Consequently, living in the village necessitates regular and frequent travel of several miles to get to schools, shops, leisure facilities and workplaces.
As a result, Norton Lindsey does not meet the requirements of PO3.
